  1. He could turn them into a 7-9 win team. That never beats Texas or LSU. So far we’ve got these P4 jobs open: PSU, MSU, UCLA, Arkansas, VaTech, Stanford, Okie Lite. Florida is likely getting added to the list. Those are some big jobs and not a lot of sure thing hires. Some mediocre corches gonna get PAID.
  2. I can see Penn State going the way of Tennessee for a while. Pedigree, fans, right pieces but just wandering as conference mates clean up. Although I don’t think Moore at Michigan is the answer which will help. Come to think of it, Heupel has kind of a Franklin-type thus far.
  3. Last year wasn’t a fluke IMO. He won 11 or more games 5/10 years there and another one with 10. The fair knock against him was that he can’t win against the top 10 and get over the hump.
  4. Penn State is a great job. All this “blue blood or not” is meaningless. Massive fan base, massive money, great school, good conference. Franklin had a .700 winning percentage there. They can win big.
  5. Fairly surprised that they moved this fast but they want a jump on things with Florida, UCLA, Arky, VaTech already open and sniffing around. Elko will more likely get paid at A&M. Cignetti is 64 so how much does PSU want to pay for the rebuild that will take a good percentage of his time there. Matt Rhule good possibility. The bloom is a bit off of Matt Campbell’s rose at ISU but he may be ready to restart and he’d be cheaper. Dillingham at ASU? Fisch at UDub? Maybe throw Drinkwitz in there. And they won’t go to the same Vandy well but Lea should be considered all over the country.
  6. OU should have sat Mateer. He was not well and the backup wouldn’t have been less effective. With their schedule better to take an L and get him healthy for later.
  7. Significant overreaction imo. Indiana is a damn, damn good team that will likely be undefeated going into the Big 10 CCG. Oregon will be favored from here on out in all theirs. I don’t look at Tennessee, Georgia Tech, LSU, and UGA and think “yeah, they are better than Oregon.” The opposite.
  8. I’d put Tech and Oregon over Georgia. They are disjointed and uninspiring. I’d also drop Okie a couple. Notre Dame, I think, will end the season in the top 10.
  9. UCLA never had a roster as bad as it looked. It was clear that the team was fumbling around via Foster’s ineptitude and lack of vision. That’s not to say the roster was great or they’re close to a contender, but getting a boost from an energetic coordinator who’s calling games like he has nothing to lose made football fun. Enjoy @Sbbruin!
  10. This entire admin is basically run to appeal to people like Ana. Announce that you’re going to hurt people he doesn’t like then quietly fix it because doing it is tremendously stoopid. Adults bigly in charge. https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/trump-administration-lays-off-dozens-cdc-officials-nyt-reports-2025-10-11/
  11. I’m not sure what Okie had done to be ranked over Mizzou. Mizzou played a far more impressive game against now the likely SEC fave. Indiana has the best win of the season of aby team. I like them at 3. Waiting for the big polls. I think the top 5 above will be the same. I’d have Mizzou over Okie. ASU, FSU fall out. Texas likely back in around 22 or so.
  12. Just so it’s clear, Lacey absolutely was the cause of this crash and he fled the scene.
  13. They said he was available but he didn’t go back in. He wasn’t needed so that’s the rigjt call. Elko was noncommittal after the game and I think you try to put away Arky without him so he can rest.
  14. Biggest concern is Moss, who is far and away the best back; and for some reason when he isnt available Klein just runs Owens between the tackles. Hopefully he can rest against Arkie. I thought this team would have 1-2 losses heading into the road trip. Win 2-3 and go into Texas with one loss will be far beyond what was expected. I think ND is a more complete and better team than Mizzou or LSU.
  15. Kirby should be suspended for that shit at least a game. Lying straight to the officials face. What trash.
  16. I also thought Luke Fickell would do better at Wisky. 37-0 to a Kirk Ferentz team? Woof. They have two potentially winnable games left, which aren’t at all sure things. Wisky should try to bring Fat Brett home.
  17. Fans are upset but I think BV gets another year. They have an awful schedule, though. Franklin’s buyout is massive. He’s for sure on the bubble. The Napier experiment has to be over, right? Also look for War Eagle to get antsy over Freeze. They are famously impatient and when you bring in a nationally renowned dirtbag he needs to win. Norvell is faceplanting again.
  18. “Wasted Days and Wasted Nights.” “Before the Next Teardrop Falls” could be here too but I’m choosing this one. From the shoutout to Sir Douglas, the piano flourish, and Freddy’s perfectly heartbreaking tenor kicking it off, it’s all correct. For anyone who drank away a night at a bar to get over a heartbreak, or anyone who ever imagined they did.
  19. I mean, they’re making all the spies and cops and ATC and soldiers and doctors, etc work without pay. So you’re getting government, you’re just not paying the people who do it.
  20. Ask yourself if you want your ATC to have missed a paycheck.
  21. This should be the standard look but with maroon block letter lids.
  22. If you don’t like watching this kid play then I question if you like football at all.
  23. A necessary condition for Marshall Plan and Japan reconstruction included occupation by Allies, complete elimination of their pre-war governments, rewriting of their constitutions, and total disarmament: reconstruction on total Allied terms. And Marshall Plan/reconstruction in this was was more than direct USG funds, it signaled an environment that could receive private investment and activity both foreign and domestic. That’s why a post-Gaza that doesn’t combine some form of Palestinian entity with the total exclusion of Hamas isn’t a slogan but a necessity. Things can’t be done long-term via complex international org and NGOs; those are a bandaid. There’s no states outside of the ME or multinational firms that will be interested in investment in a political entity where Hamas plays a role in post-war governance. For that matter, any local capital will continue to flee and seek safer harbor. Until that nut is cracked you’re going to be hard-pressed to envision a meaningful reconstruction scheme. It also doesn’t help that most of Europe is rightfully going to be more focused on the massive costs ans opportunities to eventually reconstruct and reintegrate Ukraine.
