Cig coaches against complacency and RMK coached towards perfection which creates a lot of similarities, especially when they might get interviewed after a good half or a game. Both don’t dole out cookies and tend to find a few things to get pissed about that most of us miss cuz we are celebrating the wins.

Offensive and d lines, our strong points, looked pretty average today. Defense as a whole had a few guys with poor tackles or missed coverage. Very good to see Hoover and the passing game start off strong. Also glad Hoovers neck is flexible

Love these. My prior company was a corporate sponsor and I used to try and encourage the athletic dept to let me carry the flag out for the greatest timeout in college basketball. Sigh, never happened and I probably would have tripped but what if…

I could definitely see Hoover being ahead of Mendoza at this stage. Mendoza’s took a few games before he settled in. Mendoza also had to overcome getting sacked a ton when at Cal and to trust his line at IU. I would argue that is a longer process than overcoming the picks, at least at this stage

Are those under armor socks and asics shoes? C’mon Adidas

This morning at about 9:30 a driver plowed into the Milligan University cycling team hitting 8 of the 9 riders. 2 died at the site. 5 others are in the hospital. My daughter goes here and while the athletic community is very tight, the entire school is as well. One of the riders is a friend of my daughter and while still in the hospital, seems to be doing well can you imagine getting that call as a parent or making that call as the school president? School starts next week and only athletes are around now Send some prayers for these poor families and for students who lost teammates and friends

Plus we saw how slow we came out of the blocks last year diring the ODU game. Rourkes first game against FIU was tame as well. Other schools play tough games with new players right away but I really don’t mind the current approach if it builds for being competitive in the CFP.

Congrats but they probably already know

To make I worse this post gets a women’s basketball forum tag to further show the disrespect BTW, what is with these tags

I love that we continue to get the lack of respect as I think our staff absolutely excels in that underdog role. Come on, piss off our team. Come on.

Did we find out what his recovery timetable is expected to be?

I work in the oil and gas industry and can’t believe I have not watched much of this one yet. Some of the language made it hard when kids are around but had another one graduate this summer. That should help

Stumbled on The Last Ship a couple weeks back. 5 seasons and a very good watch. Only complaint was when they yell “cover me” then they run before their help has a chance to start covering. Still good though

I just cannot remember Staes. Did he play much? Mostly a blocker? If he returns would he be ahead of the young but highly regarded TEs?

I agree. Have to admit though that while i think Sam would give us some back up depth in the middle he always seemed to me to be undersized and did not necessarily make up for that with tremendous athleticism. Better than that guy from overseas that I have already forgotten about though.
