    Come on guys, I am sure that aggy isn't just some static, uninterested face on the other side of the gloryhole. You would certainly get one 'Whoop' and a 'Howdy'.

    I am calling 2 more Shhhhs before signing day.

    But the problem is there are only 16 teams. 4 or 5 teams get that 1 vs 16 type matchup while teams in slots 6-8 get a matchup that is more comparable to a regional final.

    What the hell? HE destroyed his marriage, HE cost himself every job he's ever had, and now he is paying the cost. Karma rarely comes around to those who are so shitty, but he earned his trip down to cleaning toilets. He has also been a complete troll and asshole on the internet and deserves whatever the intertubes dish out.

    Lol. Machinator would drink'em like Bender on Futurama.

    You just said use the BCS formula one post up...The BCS was 2 parts polls, which are political and subjective, and 1 part computers, which are also potentially political and subjective. It is going to be political and subjective no matter what format you choose. The key is to keep the playoff down to teams of a similar quality. If a Northwestern gets through on occasion, then you the #1 team gets to benefit. If you have 10+ teams then you have several teams getting an easy first round game against Tulsa or Northern Illinois and other teams getting a two-loss Michigan or Washington.

    I am guessing all these 'new' names are why we passed on giving Kennedy an offer. You had to figure guys with better pedigree would come available.
  12. rickyspub
    That is why 8 is the sweet spot. If you go to 10 or more than the G5 will demand those spots and you'll watch a bunch of SEC teams get virtual 1st round byes against the unranked Sunbelt, MAC, and CUSA champs, while we have to play a highly ranked Michigan, Oregon, or some other really good conference runner-up.
  13. rickyspub
    If they are going to blow it up then the P5 need split off. ND would have to join a conference to take part. At that point you could talk about going back to smaller regional conferences, though I doubt even that logic would pass muster with the idiots running the show. Bama and Auburn sure as shit aren't signing on to be in a 10-team conference with a bunch of Sunbelt teams and Texas isn't signing on to go back to sharing a conference with Houston and Rice, much less UNT, Texas State, UTSA and UTEP.

    The G5 already get $80M+ of the playoff money each season without being a realistic player. Let the FCS have $10M of that to stay off FBS schedules. The reality is that the P5 needs to move to it's own division. The G5 can be the sacrificial lambs like the old FCS for the new P5 division for one game a year.
  15. rickyspub
    Slippery slope IMO. Adding one or two games against the P5 doesn't make their schedule any less putrid when deciding on which teams should be playing for a national title. Texas plays 12 P5 teams out of its 13 games and we are likely deemed unworthy if we lose 2, but UCF playing 1 or 2 P5 teams out of 13 games should be taken seriously?
  16. rickyspub
    Exactly. This shit ain't hard, which makes it all the more concerning that so many people running our major universities find it so.
  17. rickyspub
    Bowl games are meaningless now and most of them have been for almost a generation. Regular season games already don't matter. Texas loses to Maryland or USC and we are close to done for the playoffs, while the SEC and most ACC teams play an FCS and 2 G5s on top of only 8 conference games and they get the chance to get 2 teams in the playoffs. What the fuck is your point?

    Anonymity? Trying to keep it under wraps? Probably Sheppard...

    If there is a recruiting problem, I am sure CDC hears from the many big time boosters that are addicted to this shit. If 5 of his biggest DFW boosters complain about Herman's poor recruiting in the metroplex, I imagine CDC will ask Herman about it...or CDC could also be addicted to this shit and get pissed that we Giles'ed away another elite DL.

    Seems odd, but I hoping that there are bigger fish to fry on the grad transfer hunt. Kennedy offered the chance to get a guy in for Spring Practice, but there might be better quality players who will be available for summer enrollment like Anderson was. Not sure if this is a calculated risk or one where the coaches know of several other likely high-quality grad transfers.
  21. rickyspub
    Yeah, yeah, should stuck with regular season. We struggled or didn't even make the postseason over the past several years in large part because we lost our QB and/or some other irreplaceable player in first half of the season. We have talked about aggy being an injury or two away from a sub .500 record for the last several seasons and they always seem to make it to a bowl game largely unscathed. OU has had RB injuries, but their stability has kept them well-stocked, while their QBs run around and make plays and never seemed to even get dinged, never sitting out for any extended time or even seemingly playing gimpy.
  22. rickyspub
    Hyperbole, sure...And yet Murray was upright for the entire season. aggy had only one RB and one QB worth a shit and neither one missed any time. It seems like when we can't afford to lose a player, that is exactly who we lose to injury. Donta is probably the last above average guy we had at RB or QB that manage to play at plus level for an entire season. Colt's 2009 season is probably the last time we had a QB do it.
  23. rickyspub
    It seems like we are going to need to hit the grad transfer market at RB regardless of who we get in this class. Cain being an EE helps, but we really need an experienced upgrade over Young if possible. I suppose if Ingram actually stays healthy it may all be moot, but we seem to be the only team that regularly loses key position players to injury.
  24. rickyspub
    Moorhead also left. But they still managed to get a 1000 yard rusher this season, something we are still struggling to produce consistently.

    Someone post the pic of Jimbo's groundless rage and ranting at some nameless fans after a loss. (Too bad there are no recordings of Jimbo's rage, ignorant ranting and aggression when he found out his wife was the personal rollercoaster ride of the FSU AD.)
