  1. “Say Hey” and Ty Cobb, March 1960.
  2. Article in the FW Journal Gazette, which no longer allows me to link. Written by Dylan Sinn who covers most of the major college news for the paper. He states that college football is "closer than ever" to having a 50-70 team super conference that will rake in millions more than we now are getting from the tv deals. It is going to be football driven, and was probably the leading factor in IU biting the bullet and paying the larger payout to CTA instead of waiting for it to reduce. Essentially, that it is imperative that IU make its way into that 50-70 group because the revenue disparity between the haves and the have nots is going to be so great, that those in the latter category will see not only their football programs, but all their athletic teams fall way behind. This is the reason for the sense of urgency, and this is the selling point being used to sway boosters that have the old school belief that the majority of the department's funds should be sent to the basketball program. To me, this cries out "go big, or go home" more than any other thing I've read about the coaching search, and really hammers home the idea that this needs to be a home run hire.
  3. If Harvard gets into the NCAA tournament as a 15-16 seed, they’ll beat PUke
  4. In the last 10 years, or 60 state championships, 21 were won by private schools. Non issue.
  5. If Chryst were hired would that ensure that the O-line coach would stay? The continuity would be welcome
  6. Do we need the Moses Abraham candle meme?
  7. Would you be happy with a previous HC who has won? Fitzgerald? Herman? Gary Patterson?
  8. Not so fast my friend. Per CBS Sports, Stoops staying at Kentucky.
  9. IMO, concerns over ARE have nothing to do with his character, coaching ability or X and o knowledge. I don’t know that he has any recruiting ties. That would take some time for him to develop and in the meantime we could fall further behind. Not like he’s been a head coach elsewhere and could bring a bunch of guys with him. Guys that I could see as realistic options, in no particular order… Toledo head coach Paul Chryst Pat Fitzgerald Tom Herman These guys have all recruited the Midwest in some way, shape or form and all have won more as head coaches than we have ever seen. I agree with whoever mentioned ARE as the fallback if we strike out with more established candidates.
  10. Mt. Baker, WA. Day after Thanksgiving. Got into some snow at the higher elevations.
  11. We are in Bellingham, Washington with family and will have the traditional Thanksgiving meal but since we are 10 minutes from a fresh seafood vendor my son and I will be enjoying a little oyster dressing with the turkey this year
  12. Here is a summary of our holiday travel experience yesterday. I will never fly around Thanksgiving again, at least while I am working and I have time constraints. So while gathering with family was my choice, flying cross country is not! -Rained the whole drive to Detroit - Our 12:15 flight did not leave Detroit until 4:00. We sat on the tarmac for over an hour in a plane with no air conditioning before they finally announced the pilots who were supposed to fly us could not. We had to wait for another crew to arrive and then wait for them to do all their pre-flight checks. We reboarded around 3:15 and sat until they were ready to leave-45 minutes. - Rained the entire drive from Seattle to Bellingham -Road to get to the Air BnB was closed so had to take a detour-in the dark and in the rain. - We should have been here around 5:00. Were supposed to have dinner with the kids. Got in around 9:15. Only positive is that Delta sent us a $200 voucher each for our next flight because of the problems
  13. How could Bama jump Texas if both win out. If they did, then the whole argument that every regular season game is important goes out the window
  14. Yeah.. listening to the so called experts who said play Garrett Wilson was a mistake
  15. Good example. But all I know is that you suck.😝😝🤪
  16. Eagles’ O-line touted as the best in the NFL sure is getting exposed tonight
  17. Yeah but you didn’t drop the replay red flag before @BGleasshowed it, so you don’t get credit 😛
  18. Bucky beats UVA 65-41. You betting guys were talking about a gift… No way were these two teams gonna get the over which was 126.
  19. I think he could benefit from an extended mentoring by Calbert.
  20. Walker, for holding the team together in the first half. That’s a heckuva lot of performance in zero minutes played
