  1. If y'all want a good laugh and lots of butthurt from "prestigious and wholesome" Michigan about not making McDaniels' top 5, then here you go. https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/michigan-doesn't-make-top-5-2019-5-sf-jaden-mcdaniels
  2. I think PSU wins this game. Sure, they've looked vulnerable on defense while tOSU has an elite offense, and vice versa. Since it's the annual white out game and PSU is a home underdog, I'm inclined to think it gets weird and tOSU chokes it away.
  3. Georgia will likely sign 7 five stars this cycle since Clay Webb and Nakobe Dean have been Fong'd to them. They should get back to back #1 classes despite taking a smaller class for 2019.
  4. Damn was that a kid that dropped one of those bottles? Way to raise your kid to be trash, pops.
  5. The winner of the BIG East is going to trounce the winner of the BIG West.
  6. Upsets can happen, but I could only find maybe one win on UCLA's schedule this year.
  7. Passwaters is a creep. I remember some aggy fans on twitter a few years ago talking about how he stalked them into a bar because they thought he was weird for being so into recruiting.
  8. That looks like the scoop of a lacrosse stick. No idea why that'd be on there.
  9. I've advocated for Longo as OC for a while now. That'd be an A+ hire if it were to happen.
  10. I think the next coach (if reasonably unproven) needs to have served (in any manner, including time as a GA) under multiple great football minds. This seems obvious, but you'd be surprised at how many head coach hires don't fit this bill. Saban was a coach under (most notably) Don James, Earle Bruce, and Belichick. Urban served under Earle Bruce and Sonny Lubick. Kirby Smart served under Bobby Bowden, Mark Richt, and Saban. When I look at potential candidates, two that fit this bill come to mind: Brent Venables and Mel Tucker. Venables has served under Bill Snyder, Stoops, and now Dabo. Mel Tucker has served under Saban, Jim Tressel and now Kirby. Looking at past great hires by other programs, this holds. Pete Carroll served under Lou Holtz and Bruce. Bob Stoops served under Hayden Fry, Snyder, and Steve Spurrier. Mark Dantonio served under Bruce, Tressel, and Saban. Lincoln Riley served under Mike Leach and Stoops. Jimbo served under Saban and Bobby Bowden. Les Miles served under Schembechler and Bill McCartney. Of course this prerequisite doesn't always mean a coach will pan out. Charlie served under Lou Holtz and Urban Meyer. Weis served under Parcells and Belichick. Sometimes, a guy who pans out never served under anyone notable. Such coaches are Gary Patterson, James Franklin, and Mack Brown. The only notable coach Herman served under is Urban Meyer. I'm thinking we should stay away from the Urban Meyer tree from now on.
  11. I'm not sure about recs. I was there a few months ago, and that place has changed dramatically from when you were last there. I'm sure @Walden Ponderer can give you some suggestions.
  12. I'm curious to see what happens with James Franklin. He clearly knows what he's doing. He's a very good coach and recruiter. I've heard rumblings that he's frustrated with how difficult it is to get the gears turning on facilities upgrades in State College because of how disorganized their booster network is nowadays. Maybe that leads him to have wandering eyes, but he is from Pennsylvania and went to college there (if that matters). If their season turns out how I think it will (10-2 +/- 1) I think he should be number one on the list.
  13. Sometimes being terse is easiest.
  14. The Ohio State-Penn State game on Sept. 29th might decide the Big Ten East.
  15. I advocated giving Herman three years earlier this week, but he probably needs to be fired after this season. The program is going to tank and require a significant rebuild on the trajectory Herman has it on as of now.
  16. Yeah that area produces a lot of baseball talent. I know Texas baseball has a great pitcher coming in from Cy Ranch–Ty Madden.
  17. It looks like it's now called Cy-Fair FCU Stadium.
