  1. Is the goal to generate an excess of 50k annually per lineman via NIL which will then be donated to charity? In essence, you believe NIL could generate (hypothetically) 100k per lineman on average so the additional 50k not paid to the lineman would be distributed to charity? Or is there another charitable approach I'm missing in the awareness piece you mentioned?
  2. He has been a top DC for quite a few years now. Texas, Florida, FSU, Miami, Ole Miss, Auburn, LSU all have come open and all have hired external during that time frame. Coaches are set up to be moderately to greatly successful at any of these jobs yet he ended up with none of them why? Either ADs don't see him as a HC at a big time school or he didn't want to be a HC. Either way, concerning if I'm an Oklahoma fan.
  3. They promoted from within on 3 of last 4 hires. Their one external hire was Willie Taggart. Should be really interesting to see if they get the gang back together (Chip/Helfrich), promote from within again, try and steal another top 20 HC, or go the up and coming coordinator approach. Kiffin isn't going there but I kind of love the idea of him being the face of Nike U and trolling the PAC
  4. So Oregon now "steals" Chip Kelly from UCLA and UCLA brings back Jim Mora from UCONN? Circle complete.
  5. Miami is going to regret this. Unless Cristobal gets Brady as his OC right now
  6. I don't want to watch that boring ass game again in the NC game. Would rather see something new.

    Brian Kelly to L$U

    What coaches have good records in the cfb playoffs not named Saban, Dabo, Urban? How many NC contending programs hired better coaches in the past couple of offseasons? If you don't have Saban, Meyer, or Dabo chances are you're going to have to be ok with going 10-2 or 9-3 often and hope you have a breakout year every decade. Thats the reality for nearly every program including UT, UF, LSU, USC, Michigan,OU, etc
  8. Fuck You Auburn
  9. And now 17 points later. I bet Alabama will score 50 today (reverse jinx?)

    Brian Kelly to L$U

    Not going to be a good look for Kelly when ND is playing in the CFB playoffs for a NC.
  11. I've read rumors that Whittingham might be close to retirement. Rose Bowl appearance after a conference championship seems like a good way to exit.
  12. I remember the nearly untethered optimism NU fans had when they landed Frost during that same cycle.
  13. Have a GA post that shit on their locker and peace out. They aren't good enough for LSU anyways. Bobby P did that to the Falcons and was banging students on his motorcycle at the next stop. Can't lose approach.
  14. Until CFB playoffs expand and Saban retires chaos reigns and will become increasingly commonplace. The success that Saban, and to a lesser extent Urban & Dabo, have experienced warped CFB fandom expectations. USC, ND, tOSU, Oklahoma, Texas, Michigan, Clemson, LSU and Alabama fans think their schools should be in the CFP most of the time. Georgia, PSU, Oregon, Wisconsin, Florida, FSU, Miami, Texas A&M, and Auburn fans probably expect to be there every few years. Nebraska, Tennessee, Minnesota, Washington, VT, Baylor, TT, MSU, Utah, UCLA, OkSt, OleMiss, MSST fans all still think the stars can align for them for a nice 6-8 year run. So many schools I am overlooking here. Fans have unrealistic expectations, they can only measure success via CFB playoffs or Conference Championships, so coaches won't get much time to prove it before being cycled through.

  16. NU up 14-3. Basically running 90s option football in 1st half. QB has 14 carries already
  17. 3-8 NU using a backup QB is favored by 1 in this game against 9-2 Iowa. I'm certain NU will find a way to lose by less than 7
  18. Special doesn't really matter that much either. UT is special, as is Florida, FSU, USC, etc. Hows that going?

    UCLA @ U$C

    CK is 7-4, should go to 8-4, and just thrashed USC. I don't see how this could be TBD when also considering the CFB job opening landscape. LSU, USC, VT, TT, UDub all looking for coaches. Miami, UF, and FSU might consider it as well. I think be happy with a bowl game and sit this cycle out
  20. Go ahead and update that College Record to 16-14. Down 28-0 35-0 42-0 49-0 to tOSU in the 2nd quarter.
  21. I think that is going to be a big problem going into the SEC for OU, and to a lesser extent TX. You think those fans are going to be ok being relegated to Auburn most years? Hell no. Huge expectations in a much tougher environment. How will the SEC be better for OU shorter term? More money certainly. Recruiting just got much harder. Most schools have more fertile recruiting grounds in their backyard and OU's current recruiting budget would be 7th-8th best in the SEC. Advantage in recruiting Texas kids (top school in Big12 and lots of games in TX) will greatly erode. Recruiting future HCs would be more difficult. OU in the SEC will be the 4th-6th best job in the conference compared to 1st or 2nd currently. On-field competition, that clearly got tougher too. Until the SEC finally succeeds in creating a super league and multiple losses are expected by all teams annually, similar to the NFL, I think OU fans are going to be pretty unhappy with the new norm.
  22. Will OU have as much allure to TX HS athletes in the SEC as they did in the Big12? In the Big12 it was come play for the premier school in the league, make the CFB playoffs, and play a ton of games in TX. I'm speculating but, in the SEC they won't be the top school most years as I expect much more parity and TX kids could play as many in-state games going to Ole Miss as OU.
  23. Not so sure. The Canadian keeper looks like he has 3 layers of clothing on. That part seems pretty sweet.
