I’m still going to watch all the games. I hope all this looks like a wild overreaction in a few weeks.

full steam ahead if we blast tulsa and usc.
You know this is going to happen. Our season ain't going to follow a trend line. It's going to have violent swings with fits of rage. We'll probably beat OU and then lose to Iowa State.

I feel like the universe is going to give us good football again as soon as we all find better ways to spend our time. It will be a cruel irony.
But the last few days on Surly makes me think we're closer than ever before.

Alright, it's a 9am game time on the West Coast... what does Surly recommend for a get-up-and-go kind of morning?
Was thinking Irish coffee/mimosas and a nice brunch spread but I know there'll be better ideas.
Three cups of coffee when toddler wakes up at 6am. Chaser of tears while reminiscing of the days when you thought 9am was early.

OK. I spent a half hour on the phone with my liberal, Democrat, feminist, college professor sister. (No pics.) She has followed the Urban Meyer saga closely. And she knows Title IX, as she is subject to it as well.
Shocking to me, she says Urban Meyer should not have been fired and she's happy with the outcome. No objective person sets the #metoo bar as high as my liberal, Democrat, feminist, college professor sister, if she's satisfied, maybe I can be as well.
A point she makes (and I won't argue it) is Title IX is built to protect victims, not punish offenders, and the UM/ZS saga is in a HUGE gray area. If CS were a university employee as well, this woulda gone much differently. You can bet that gray are will get fixed soon.
I am a guest on this board and I won't poop on it with any kind of an opinion of my own. Rather I will continue to do what I have tried to do; convey objective facts as best I can, and then keep my mouth shut.
Carry on. God Bless Surly Horns.Guest pass revoked. 1-year ban.
Write this in your diary because the person you’re trying to convince is yourself.

According to the Hank Scorpio Cup rankings, if we’ve surged into second for Tuitele and he commits to Washington, we’ll have a pretty tight stranglehold on first place for all of the second place finishes in this cycle.
Hey Guys, if you hang around at the party long enough, sometimes her first choice leaves early.

If Jimbo’s slow-and-low offense is unable to magic-trick some TDs onto the board this year, there is going to be major shock factor related to game outcomes, moreso now with this off-season hype campaign than ever. Should be glorious.
Meanwhile, Arky, Ole Miss, and Miss State have adopted offenses that will score despite “lesser talent.” Did they not learn their lesson in the Big 12?

That is not happening and the sooner everyone accepts that the better.
You sound like a guy that has a read on things. Glad you’re here, with your ear to the ground, taking the temperature, reading the tea leaves, and leaving bread crumbs. You’re a saint.

It's going to be interesting to watch how aggys respond to Jimbo's coaching style. My understanding is he's really risk averse (similar to Strong).
Take this for example.
LOL
How do you get the least out of an offense of future NFL players? Take forever to run plays and give away the precious possessions you have, thereby killing their confidence in the process

Woodard needs to be ready for meaningful minutes in 2019
Woodard is going to be the best WR on our team in 2 years. Why? Because he’s pidgeon toed. Book it.

Maybe, but didn't Herman attempt to get Major to hire Meh and Ware on the Coug staff this past offseason. That makes me think that those two underperforming coaches have one foot out the door whether they want to or not.
2 year contracts baby. I think you’re right.

It's easy to put big labels on things and ignore details and march with torches and pitchforks. This is just a big false equivalence deal, and I'm just tired of it happening all the time.
It's convenient how your passion for social justice lined up with your hobby in such a timely manner.

Not a whole lot of sunshine in that article. I like it.
Add onto that the bad karma that Jimbo has coming his way, and it becomes must see tv for me

So what lies or half-truths has Texas told? This entire thing has nothing to do with Texas other than a lie told by someone covering for Ohio State. Your attempts to act like homerism has anything to do with this from Texas fans are laughable. Texas has nothing to do with it.
This x1000.

Throw John Bonney out there. I have faith he'll be in the right place and will tackle.

If he's they guy who's been droppin' dimes to McMurphy, it's a scumbag move, not befitting the HC of an elite university like Texas. But hardly illegal, or anything like that. Not sure why you guys are all wrapped up in it.
Haha. You created a thread called “Jim Harbaugh still coaches at Michigan” which is funny because Urban Meyer is going to get fired. Haha. Urban Meyer is going to get fired and you’re still going have a thread titled “Jim Harbaugh still coaches at Michigan” which will totally have a different meaning than you originally intended.

So the false rumor, using the word confirmed, was put out there by osu to try and make herman out to be a snitch and mitigate damage to recruiting in the state?
I get that Wilson is great and all, but WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO OUR PRIORITIES! (not you, them)

Of course, when you search “Tom Herman” on Twitter, all of the top results are still the initial accusations and not the denials.
And Urban knew that’s exactly how this would go.None of this saves his job.

As I said last weekend although it wasn’t ESPN. Starting to come out on how involved Tom and his wife were with Smith’s wife. They helped her out substantially. Rumor is Zach Smith is a prick who liked to video people doing stuff and may have some dirt on Herman. But not sure how it will play out.
At what point do you realize you're in too deep? At what point to you step back and re-engage with society? We are talking about college football not the JFK assassination.

Glad someone nationally is saying it.
In the current climate, the only place that "who tipped off the journalist" would get any traction is a fan message board. Normal people don't read that and thinks it's the story.

Wow, those evil Hermans who give money to a friend.
Herman went on to say, “because we’re fucking rich now.”

Ohio State is imploding at the thought of diminished returns on the football field.
They have such a strong infrastructure, they could fire him and keep on rolling. Their biggest risk is protecting him and opening themselves up to lawsuits, IMO.

That’s fine. My hope is that this result looks different later in the season. Sometimes shock can bring about change.
