  1. I’m sure that this guy has been dunked on somewhere on this board long ago, but it really is staggering how wrong a guy who gets paid American dollars to opine on sports could get this. He hit on 3, possibly 4 out of 12, and the champion/Heisman are choices that won’t even be in the final grouping.
  2. We’ll see how Indiana does tonight, but UGA looks like the only team that has a shot at knocking off tOSU.
  3. Can we not get a clock and live talley of made shots on the Dr. Pepper challenge?
  4. Absolutely, it’s very far down on the list. But it’s annoying and he doesn’t have to say it. If something falls into his lap or he works a flip behind the scenes, surprise us.
  5. I don’t have an expectation at the end of the day on signing day that there is more coming. It’s when the coach and recruiting coordinator say publicly that “we’re not done yet” that puts such an expectation out there and annoys me when they don’t follow through. Just don’t say anything beyond how happy you are with the guys you signed.
  6. At this point I’m just hoping for the worst possible television product possible that pulls ratings below our average regular season game.
  7. Didn’t even make the graphic that has Duke with a <1% chance
  8. The things he has seen . . .
  9. Even Kevin Mar won’t be able to deny that TD
  10. If nothing else, these kids are going to come out of college with a much better understanding of how pricing and markets work than the average student.
  11. Eliminates UVA, Duke still doesn’t get in, and it undermines Miami’s argument for going in ahead of us. Again, a marginal at best help to our chances.
  12. That’s been my assumption since the UGA loss but I’m trying to see if there is any point at all in having a rooting interest in these games that I don’t otherwise care about.
  13. So the straight flush we have to pull is: - Tech big over BYU - UGA blowout of Bama (and maybe an injury to Ty Simpson) - Duke over UVA - OSU blowout of IU (so we keep the closest loss) And then even if we get all that, it will still likely be nothing more than a case of playoff blue balls?
  14. Is $30 million now the new standard for a roster?
  15. We are a brand that draws eyeballs, but another reason we were #2 in average viewership for the season is that we are the only team in the current playoff top 25 that has played more than 2 opponents in the top 16 of playoff rankings. We played 5. Tennessee’s high rank in viewership is also likely boosted by playing 4 teams in that group.
  16. Yes, I remember that Sumrall was the first name that came up during that brief moment when it looked like Stoops was going to A&M. He managed to hold UF’s class together pretty well.
  17. Kentucky fans not happy
  18. Goosby’s rated #15 here:
  19. Penn State did not go into this process expecting to end up with Matt Campbell and they certainly didn’t plan to burn an entire recruiting class, but given how many swings and misses they have made they could have done a lot worse. This cycle has revealed a lot of information about where coveted jobs are and aren’t.
  20. So are we still waiting for the “we ain’t done yet” talk of Wednesday to come to fruition or are we, in fact, done with recruiting for this window?
  21. I really haven’t followed his career but everything I’ve heard about the coaching carousel says Sumrall may end up being the best hire of the lot. People who follow the sport seem to think highly of him.
  22. So several big LSU commits are still unsigned. I’m sure everyone is pushing on them but hope we are in the mix.
  23. It’s basically equivalent to the worst NCAA sanction short of the death penalty. Has anyone ever been hit with a 25 scholarship reduction for one year? I know the portal mitigates this and the new coach will pick up some stragglers before the signing day in February, but this is like a meteor strike on their roster.
  24. A 2 at 10 looks like a 10 at 2
