  1. Omg they are running commercials for an expanded playoff now? Just cancel the 'college' part of college football.
  2. Rumors mention Chris Ash among others, as ND's next DC. Do I need to know anything?
  3. What does Dennis Dodd know about anything? BK to LSU is A GAMBLE for both sides, high risk/high pay. It feels of to say that a coach with four consecutive 10 win seasons is a risk but in this environment he is.
  4. Kelly runs a fairly standard shotgun pass fist spread, by now it may be old hat. If the qb makes the perfect read and throws it to the perfect matchup, and there are no other failures to execute, then it's good for 30 points. I wouldn't worry much about the staff since Kelly will micro-manage. Polian is nominally a special teams coach but actually the ace recruiter. Cooks was very conservative. The S&C man was an assistant, we retained the guy who strongyl upgraded our program in 2018. I assume Disney will make me watcha share of the SEC. Right now I am worried about Lincoln Riley with SC's skill position talent.
  5. The rap was Denbrock was a yes-man while Kelly was the real OC. Although the offense wasn't the problem in our 4-8 year in 2016; AD Savvy Jack forced BK to hire two real coordinators outside of his inner circle. Kellys rigidly scripted offense will live and die on the connection between QB and X-WR. It all depends on whom he can recruit to LSU.
  6. The broadcasters remarked that the Dawgs didn't seem to be very happy. That's because they didn't win a real bowl game, they just won a first playoff game.
  7. But a humble Yankee bought a bag of Bob's Red Mill grits without reading the label 😣
  8. You could screw Bama by making them play Toledo then Oregon then have to go play Clemson with only a week of prep. The #1 dog is an enormous advantage with a month to prepare but less so in a series.
  9. We would routinely come down with suckitis after playing Michigan.
  10. Temper Fi. Loyal to the shrub. 😄
  11. We finally learned how to make Kelly hire out of his comfort zone; exile.
  12. THere would have to be a review, probably have to stick with how it was called on the field. Maybe it was called wwwuuuhhhh?
  13. At least we will go back to seeing Kelly spank the kitten. Anything I should know about Lincoln Riley's recruiting tactics? ND lost a WR to SC this morning
  14. Is it as simple as Nike signing players for their 'NIL?'
  15. He's good at finding and getting the best jobs in the world.
  16. It was only one year but it was the birth of 'Kelly 2.0' resulting in four consecutive 10+ win seasons. Elko was the preminent example of Kelly being forced to go outside of his circle and hire talented assistants from elsewhere. The change was night (losing to Strong's Horns) and day (beating LSU in the Citrus) After 2017 season A&M noticed and simply kept bidding. So I guess there was little chance that Elko would stay and get named the new ND coach.
  17. I wonder if Elko is as good a DC as Cutcliffe coaches QBs.
  18. Kelly had some interesting games with both Kiffin and Sark, albeit against a fragile sanctioned SC team. ND stopped both of them on a 7th and goal. Kelly appears to be moving out long tenured assistants to bring in more of his cronies. That is not a good sign.
  19. I just recall cOSU only won that Fiesta Bowl because Stanford missed a chip shot kick. Hope it isn't a trend.
  20. And they eye test said cOSU wasn't better than Stanford.
  21. WMU saved Pitt from the playoff; terrible peril.
  22. Well, one micro-manager does dictate to his hair stylist. Otherwise they are both off-putting CEO robo-coaches. I'm not saying BK would have the same results with Bama's 5 star army, but he would have a lot of wins.
  23. Kelly is a do it my way kinda guy. If everything is done by the book then you win a lot of games. If the winds change then you will repeatedly hear about a failure of execution. I actually can't think of a worse cultural fit.
