I think this is an important reminder, sometimes. We get so ate up with finding fault in coaches and players that we way overdo it many or even most times, lately.

While a 3-star could be great, I'm not real excited about Flood's recruits that aren't 4-star plus.

Popehat with a couple of trenchant observations https://bsky.app/profile/kenwhite.bsky.social- James Comey is my Homie
Like that's ever stopped her. The judge, however, maid no explicit findings as to Halligan's competence or lack thereof.- Trump’s America
Last of the gunfighters? Nah, guess that's an A-6. Well, hell, first thought may be correct. Anyone?- Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks

Oh, for the appeal, this is probably kind of a juicy issue of statutory interpretation that you could get a civil-servant appellate lawyer interested in that's a step removed from the politics. It's probably a lot easier to keep those civil servants around than trial attorneys exercising prosecutorial discretion.- Art Briles back coaching in college
Depends on what the contract defines as cause. While it seems like negligent supervision of coaches, staff and players might well constitute cause, it's one of those things that is often provable or proven only by a jury trial. So, it's relatively unlikely to be defined as cause because of uncertainty. You could have a cause definition that was something like "negligence in the conduct or operation of any of COACH's job responsibilities, as solely determined by the Athletics Director," but no coach is going to sign up for that in all likelihood.- James Comey is my Homie
Or grand jury misconduct. Or failure to state an offense.- RIP Jimmy Cliff
Im not armybrat, and Sticky Fingers way predated my record shopping days. Nevertheless, I can remember copies of it at Peaches/Sound Warehouse and/or Melody Shop with the zipper and the inevitably ripped up shrink wrap over it.- James Comey is my Homie
Yeah, like I told y'all, this "appointments clause" stuff has real teeth. This doesn't make Cannon's ruling correct, as the appointment procedure here is quite different from that in the Special Counsel area. But some truly FAFO shit.- James Comey is my Homie
These both apparently are "without prejudice," which means they can be brought again with a properly appointed USA. That means at this point one confirmed by the Senate or appointed on an acting basis by the district court. The limitations and tolling issue might preclude that for Comey, unsure. Not for James, though. But, it would seem that it's going to be hard to get a lackey confirmed in the interim. And the district court is unlikely to appoint one. This is insufficient embarrassment of the Administration, imo. But, this is going to impact Trump's practice nationwide of having "acting" USA's that are unconfirmable.- Trump’s America
I can't hear the sex pest's name without thinking of Mark. It's such a comically fictional surname.- RIP Jimmy Cliff
Also had to check that Harder They Come was actually a Cliff song. It was. So many of the popular reggae songs are covers from older/more obscure artists. Guess it doesn't matter as he was clearly identified with it regardless.- RIP Jimmy Cliff
The harder they come, the harder they fall. One and all. RIP. Honestly would have thought he was older or already gone.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I've watched a lot of things come and go even in my relatively brief time on earth and they mostly go. For example the Sinclair method with naltrexone. The AA model sticks around for a reason. Because the "model" I describe is far more common than anything else. https://nida.nih.gov/about-nida/noras-blog/2025/03/advancing-reduction-drug-use-endpoint-in-addiction-treatment-trials Nora Volkow is the top scientist in the field. Here she acknowledges that moderation in substance abuse might be nice and explores possible reasons for the common catastrophic relapse. And calls for further study. And, if it's so easy for a guy like Sark to just moderate his drinking, well then why are we even speculating that he's off the wagon? And it has been made clear to me that people don't understand what I mean by Sark's problems. I don't mean divorce, baby-mama-drama and an underachieving football team. I mean drunken public appearances, DUIs, face-down-in-the-gutter type shit. Police involvement. That would be pretty independently verifiable and obvious. I don't claim and can't claim all the medical answers, but I have extensive personal experience dealing with addicts and addiction and follow the science out of personal interest.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I didn't say you have no control over it. Every addict that recovers and achieves abstinence exercises some control, some choice. But it's not a simple choice of "don't drink" or "drink less." But the top science in the field is that addicts brains essentially "overreact" to the introduction of substances in a way that others don't. And that never goes away. And it gets worse the more you feed it. Corollary to that is, the only cure is complete abstinence, and secondarily, if you resume, your brain is in approximately the same state you left it, so, if you were a bad drunk when you quit, you're gonna be a bad drunk in a hurry if you start back up, even if it's 20 years later. A guy like Sark that has a demonstrated history of bad decisions relating to alcohol. Alcohol doesn't help anyone's decisions, but most people are in control enough as adults not to show up to work-related events shiftfaced. An adult with a high-responsibility job that shows up shiftfaced on the regular has a problem, a lack of control that evinces an addiction. A guy like that is going to have to remain abstinent. If he doesn't, the wheels are going to come completely off.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I'm 30 years sober. Former, recovered, recovering, whatever. It's true that you never a) completely get over it b) if you start up again you're gonna be right where you left off in a goddamn hurry. - James Comey is my Homie
