  1. The defense finally shows up on the last play of the half.
  2. The defense looks like it's never seen a screen pass before.
  3. I have a couple...
  4. REVISED PREDICTION Never Daunted 44 Weeping Sparty 7
  5. you can't make this stuff up. :D
  6. ... or that those guys had to go through multiple years of really bad coaching. I feel for those guys... Sorry to be a downer, but that really sucks, especially when we consider what could/should have been. But back on topic, looks like DeVries has the guys playing hard and having fun.
  7. So, we’ve managed to get over the hump?
  8. If Finebaum is pooh-pooh-ing it, but must be a good and sound move. He's an idiot, and needs to retire.
  9. That's all irrelevant. My point is simply that the "buyout" has been used historically to lessen the chance that a coach leaves before the contract ends, and to mitigate the financial impact in the case that the coach does, in fact, leave early. And my point extents to say that if a school is willing to pay $49M (give or take, allowing for any clawback or offsets), it is effectively not a deterrent, and the buyout amount is, therefore, pretty much irrelevant to the big picture. Allen's buyout (and the vast majority of coach contract buyouts) are structured as Franklin's was, but with any termination, the particulars are negotiable, and that was what happened with Allen.
  10. Is the buyout even a thing any more? I mean, Penn State paid Franklin $49M to go away. That is insane. Almost as insane as paying Tom Allen $15M+ to go away. I'm honestly not sure any number really matters any more.
  11. Welcome to the B1G, coach McCollum.
  12. Well, it IS sinking into the ground, after all. /DWS https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sinking-library/
  13. That makes sense, actually. If it worked otherwise, the cream of the crop could be long gone before the new coach is even selected. Unfortunately for us.
  14. Calipari at Kentucky... (not a large enough body of work at Arkansas yet)
  15. Yeah, I just checked... bought mine last year on October 8... today's the 13th and still can't find them. Any locals seen them around BTown? UPDATE: Just heard from a buddy in BTown that they were late with the photography and that put the posters behind schedule. Keep an eye peeled for their release.
  16. Pretty sure Cigs has that covered. No let down coming.
  17. Love the "over the hump" reference...
  18. UAB fired Trent Dilfer today, as well. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/46575973/uab-blazers-fire-football-coach-trent-dilfer
  19. Operators are standing by...
