  1. Past hour
  2. If so I'm submitting this as the new Gata anthem
  3. I get it, but that always seems crazy to me. It’s like the Bush administration saying essentially that waterboarding is not illegal torture because we wrote ourselves a secret memo that says it isn’t.
  4. Yes, the volleyball tournament is generally chalky and you will almost never see an unseeded team make the final 4 like you occasionally will in basketball. Baseball probably has the most parity, but part of that is due to the variability between a bad team having a batting average of .230 and an elite team having a batting average of .260. Leads to more unpredictable outcomes. Volleyball, football, and tennis have more predictable outcomes based on roster talent.

    Mad Men

    One of the AMC subchannels runs Mad Men nonstop and Pluto has a Mad Men channel. Nice fall back when there's nothing interesting on.
  6. Wow, looks like we got a hell of a bargain on Morris. Terms are $3.8M per and $100K raises each year. Don't see what his buyout would be for us if he doesn't work out or if there are any incentives. By contrast, word was that Arky wanted Morris first and are paying Silverfield $6.7M per. Is it possible we found a coach who'se not only a good fit but also is willing to take less compensation to allocate towards player compensation? Maybe he's willing to take less at a place that should be easier to win than at Arky which would be a smart move? I'm really looking forward to next season. I think bowl eligibility should be possible if not likely in year 1, especially if he brings his QB and RB. https://www.si.com/college/arkansas/football/new-hogs-coach-ryan-silverfield-contract-details-including-buyout
  7. Will any other Surly beer enjoyers be at the pinthouse brewing jaguar shark event Friday?
  8. Would they accept someone who was molested by his defensive coordinator?
  9. Related: First time I flew into Midway it was the old a fuck terminal that Southwest brought back to life in the late 90's. They had winding staircases to jetways. Beat as fuck terminal. Flew back a year or two later on another trip and spent the morning bad mouthing the Midway airport to a co-worker. We stepped off the plane to the new terminal, I was obviously surprised and my co-worker gave me shit for the rest of the time we worked together over thinking a brand new terminal was garbage. TLDR the old Midway did in fact smell like piss
  10. The phrase "all politics is local" is officially retired.
  11. Why exactly? Ohio State doesn’t seem to be scaling back their spending any time soon. If Ohio State keeps winning big with Biletnikoff WRs it’s a pretty hollow consolation that Texas potentially made them pay more for the guy than they otherwise would have. Not my money, who cares
  12. No one knows how strong or weak a schedule is going to be two years down the road. If I tell someone in December 2023 that a 2025 schedule with: Tech Indiana Ole Miss A&M Is 4/7 of the 7 top CFP seeds, no one is taking me seriously.
  13. Video from when they arrested Textow:
  14. https://rolltide.com/news/2006/12/8/Statement_from_Mal_Moore_Concerning_the_Search_for_a_Head_Coach Seems luck is a huge factor in coaching hires.
  15. Isn’t Dustin in a bunch of Broadway shows?
  16. FEI EWD (Strength of Record based performance v 2 standard deviation above average team) 1. Indiana 2. Ohio State 3. Oregon 4. Aggie (lol) 5. Georgia 6. BYU (!) 7. Alabama 8. Ole Miss 9. Oklahoma 10. Texas Tech 11. Texas 12. Vanderbilt 13. Notre Dame 14. Miami 15. Utah
  17. There’s a segment of the fan base that will only accept someone with ties to Paterno as the next coach, and why they never fully accepted O’Brien or Franklin. It had nothing to do with either of their legitimate failings, only their perceived lack of reverence to Paterno. Those people also assume that anyone who ever had any ties to Paterno is off limits in the eyes of the BOT, and that’s the only reason Terry isn’t getting a look. My assumption why Terry isn’t getting a legitimate look is because, until he was thrust into the role, he seemingly didn’t want to be a head coach. His comments and lack of drive up the ladder seem to indicate that as well. I don’t know the man, you do. Maybe he did want to be DC and Franklin privately turned him down. He seems like a good man, but it also seemed like until a couple months ago he had no interest in being a DC or HC.
  18. A lot of them do. You seem sensitive about it
  19. Yay?
  20. The same Worthy who was on the sidelines for the A&M game yucking it up?
  21. Their ACC alignment really weakens their schedule. The 2027 slate has potential to be extremely decent if USC lands, or the chance to be crap: Potential good games: - Auburn pending Golesh returns. - Georgia Tech if Lea keeps momentum. - Clemson pending Dabo getting shit together. - VaTech pending Franklin returns (top 22 class is a great start, their roster will be a contender in the ACC). - USC if they renew. I’d say there are even or better odds (for each team individually) to be top 40 in 2025, and potential for 3 or more to slide into the top 20. No one would be surprised any year at Auburn, Clemson, and USC ending in the T25, they have the rosters for that now. Michigan State with Fitz is more of a long term project and is more of a wild card.
