  1. Just horrific. Burn it to the ground. Like others have said, it still enrages me that Penn State never received the death penalty and these other mentioned schools received slaps on the wrist. It’s probably a question for another thread, but if you don’t give programs that participate in pedophilia and other sexual abuses the death penalty, what is the point of even having the death penalty?

    I think he will do well there, especially if he gets some good assistants.  I don't harbor any ill will for Shaka, but he had to go.  The Big 12 is a meat grinder filled with elite coaches and he was AT BEST middle of the pack.  The Big East will be much easier sledding.

    He ran a clean program, graduated kids, navigated us through Andrew Jones and Covid.  I'll root for him honestly. But we need someone much better.

    Very well said.

  3. Mine are like many that have been mentioned:

    Spurs 2013 Game 6: I have been a Spurs fan since I was a kid and thus have had a lot of great moments with some heartbreaks in between. .4, 2006 series vs. Mavericks, 2011 series with Memphis were tough, but don’t compare to having the title in your hand and snatched away, as someone said. I couldn’t sleep that night and knew the series was over even with a Game 7. 2014 brought redemption, but I still can’t watch Allen’s shot and dread the highlight each Finals season.

    Longhorns 2008 loss to Tech, Colt’s injury in the MNC for obvious reasons. You all noted that 2010 was a continuous gut-punch and really showed the program’s deterioration. 2016 loss to Kansas, while bringing Strong’s much-needed firing, was devastating especially since it was just so embarrassing.

    I must admit I am glad I was too young to see or understand the 1984 Georgia loss. As I grew in my Longhorn fandom, just hearing the story became  upsetting. I don’t know how I would have handled living through it.

    Tampa was a garbage, albeit talent laden, organization going into '20. No chemistry.  No cohesion.  No leadership.  No nothing.  Its head coach was a mess.  Its QB threw 30 picks last season.
     
    Brady took the team over.  In the locker room, on the sidelines and everywhere in between.  The head coach acknowledged as such.  Mediocrity wasn't going to be accepted. Excellence and a championship were the only options.  Short of that was failure.
     
    Tonight was the end result.   Brady imposed his will on the other 52 players on the team.  And the coaching staff.  They went from trash without a clue to an organized and driven team. No coincidence that acquisition of one player was the difference.  And the result was a world championship.
     
    Good for Brady   The best.  Ever.

    Can’t say it any better than this post. Brady the absolute best. We will never see anything like this again.

    Lets be honest. It was a win for them, but won't get them to #4. So they can claim a national championship. Add 2020 to Aggy's record. 

    Put it on the wall!
