  1. Sumlins teams have gotten progressively worse each year in Tuscon. The consistent downward spiral is fucking impressive. 5-7 2018 4-8 2019 0-5 2020 0-6 2021
  2. I believe it. Seeing as how new construction is severely lacking across the state, there are few options. Mind as well buy in a crap area, move those degenerates out, knock down those shit houses and build a 2.5M house in its place.
  3. I agree that not placing first would not be a reason to deny Mack or Royal a shot. I feel there were numerous reasons why Sark was a bad hire and I left most of them out for brevity. Mack proved what he could do, even if it wasn't 1st place (NC actually finished with an identical record as FSU but lost the tiebreaker in 1997). Sark hasn't done anything approaching that and the body of work isn't there to support his hire. Macks last 2 years at NC resulted in a 20-3 Record and 2 2nd place finishes. Sark at UW: 15-10, 3rd place finish in his division. His 1 year at USC doesn't tell us much.
  4. Lane is still in the game because of this type of mindset:
  5. Sports are still hampered with a lot of old, baseless, fucking stupid logic when it comes personnel decisions and the "passing down" of genes and skills. If your dad was known as one of the best defensive coaches in the country, you will get more than your fair shot at job opportunities because surely, you might be a genius too. This video sums it up: http://<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6naO8n6HsqE" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
  6. I've seen a couple games there, had some good times at a few parties. The area outside of campus is fucking scary.
  7. You are asking the wrong question. Question should be: Would you hire a coach who has never lead his team to 1st in his division and has never won his conference? WITF he was hired in the first place is some mystical shit that my simple brain does not understand.
  8. I actually like the round robin, because you play each team every year and you don't get to 'duck' schools in the other division. Something like 6 or 8 ten-team conferences would be sweet. Winner of each is guaranteed a playoff spot. Then you can add in a handful of at large teams depending on how big you want the playoffs to be. back to reality I guess
  9. Holy crap Shaw is getting a lot of coin. He's been there 10 years and has 1 rose bowl win under his belt. I guess that's the bar over there
  10. a friend offered me a ticket and I'm considering going. When in Rome and all...Where is the best place to pick up some roofies in waco? Should I swing by one of their dorms? Or perhaps walk around like a rapist and have them thrown at me like a post wedding rice shower?
  11. Glad to find out this thread is not about Gary Patterson, the "creator of smiles":
  12. Sun Belt, MAC, CUSA, AAC. recent realignment news notwithstanding, I could not tell you 3 schools in each conference
  13. If there was a darwin award for losing your job, the WSU HC would be my pick
  14. I didn't realize Tulane still had a football team. Figured they washed away in the last flood and scattered among fema tents
  15. Baylor is marginally better than last year. The difference is they couldn't pad their record vs. prairie view a&m types. If you just look at their conference performances 3 things are obvious. 1. their OL sucks - which is no surprise because it sucked last year. they cannot move the ball on the ground against teams with a pulse. 2. they can't pass rush against teams with a pulse. 3. ISU dominated them in the 2nd half, OSU dominated them in stoolwater.
  16. You could have told me they moved to conference USA and I wouldn't have been the wiser. CUSA, AAC,MAC they are all the same caliber to me.
  17. Based on what? Losing to shitty UCLA teams?
  18. Gotta be Iowa States fault
  19. You triggered something
  20. I just noticed this. If Indiana wins the B10 in 2021, then sure. Go get him. But how often do head coaches leave and go to another team in the same conference.. as HC? I can't think of any in the B12 that have done it. Yes, they are 3-0 this year. So what? This year was over before it began. Nothing counts, huge asterisks next to anything that would be meaningful. Teams are playing in empty stadiums all over the country. Games get cancelled on a whim. Players can't stay focused. Forget this season its meaningless.
  21. You mentioned earlier his passion is not the same. Maybe it is time for a change. I don't know if he had a coaching break between the 49ers job and Michigan, but if not he's coaching since 2004. That has to be immensely draining, with the pressure at Michigan 10X as much as it would have been at Stanford or 100x of San Diego before that. It's either rare or becoming rare for coaches to get to 7-8 seasons with one program now and this is Harbaughs 6th with Michigan? People want wins now, all the time and nothing less. Or, coaches win and jump after 3-4 seasons to something different. I dunno. Just thinking different things here. So maybe he's worn out and needs to stop coaching for a while or completely. Who knows.
  22. They didn't lose 3 games at the end of 2018. They lost the first game, won ten straight (wins vs. Ranked teams Wisconsin, Michigan State, Pedophile State and Northwestern, who would finish ranked and with 9 wins) before losing to ohio state. If you want to go back 19 games and skip all of those wins, then he is 11-8, not 10-9. I feel your pain though. It's frustrating when the wins that you really want are not there. That's what it sounds like. What I would do is just be happy with the 9 win a year average that he is delivering.
