[Packers Request Interview With Ravens LB Coach Zach Orr For DC Vacancy]

2 hours ago, Mean Green 93-98 said:

I'm torn.  I absolutely hate the Packers, but I wouldn't be able to hate them as much if Zach became their DC.  I'd only be able to truly hate their offense. 😞  I guess there's always their fans.

Watching the packers shred the boys for yet another year might almost be something I could swallow if Zach was there.

As long as it's not a nasty IPA that someone has to convince me it has enjoyable "complexity" to its flavor and finish.

I remember my first IPA... what a disaster. 

But I learned that, like coffee,  its a process.

Start with the absolute worst most bitter and pungent one imaginable. I recommend arrogant bastard. This is the palate killer.

Next, go cheap and simple,  something inoffensive like Sierra Nevada's entry level IPA. This acts close to a palate cleanser, but more of a palate reset.

Finish with something high end. I recommend dogfish head 90 minute.

 

After that, the flavor just sparks. You suddenly notice the notes and appreciate the hoppy bitterness. Or you don't, you unsophisticated donkey.

The new college landscape and NIL burnt him out quick 

Guy was coaching into his 70s. The only things burning were his knees. Back. Kneck. Probably prostrate and who the hell knows what else.

NIL may have been the final straw, but this guy went well beyond the standard and still did amazing work.

Dude just let her pick whichever volleyball program is doing better if she wants to win.

Like seriously... my daughter is about to go into computer animation..of which UNT has no degree. Texas state has one. UT as well.  Should I curse her lineage because she went to another college for a better program? The green in me says yes... the dad in me tells that other guy to f*ck right off

[Florida State officially leaving ACC?]

Basically, if FSU couldn't make CFP against the current conference, then playing Cal or SMU is going to count even less against them and push the strength of schedule even further back

[The Future of Bowl Games]

Bowl games should be part of larger tournament/playoff system. Have the main CFP then an NIT equivalent. You'd slightly decrease the pool of teams (maybe 7 wins becomes the floor) but keep the same amount bowls. Sponsors would be happy because the games would have more relevance. 

I actually love this idea the more I think about it. It adds a lot of fun to the post season and probably more revenue overall. Still have the problem of players sitting out... but maybe if some of that revenue was shared?

Anything to make the bowl system more exciting and meaningful for sub-CFP teams. Yeah it's basically FCS 2.0 but the current system is too broken

Well wouldn’t you agree Bloesch and Clements were established Oline coaches before coming here? @Udomannsaid we don’t have the budget to hire established Oline coaches and I’m pointing out that we have had them before now.

Hey, don't drag me back into this. I'm just a near middle aged man who is frustrated to see his favorite sport dying and likes yelling at clouds. I'll get them darned kids off my lawn one day... (when I send them to college)

[Conference opponents 2024]

Does any of this matter? Aside from coaches, every team will be 75% portal kids. Who knows wth kind of team anyone will be the next year regardless of record.

[Maclin to Kentucky]

I guess it's a step up. But he could have done better than Kentucky. Must of been the money.

[Morris Announces Hiring of Cutter Leftwich to Football Staff]

Doesn't seem like a bad hire at all.

It's also not a "great" hire, but what do we expect here? We don't have the budget to hire established Oline coaches (or replace a DC).

so overall, I'll take it. Good luck coach!

If true, good for him.  Hope he gets some play time against those SEC teams.

It's a good landing spot...but he's going to get his @ss handed to him by the SEC defensive lines. Hopefully he does well, will be peeking into some gamecock's football this year

I don't know if this was intentional or not but I got a giggle.  I think we are all tired of this BS.

This week, college football died for 80 teams. The market will work out the rest. We are just too late to be a part of the big party.

Light the Tower has been a big disappointment.  Putting RV in charge was in hindsight a mistake.  Now we’ve farted around and lost our best player.  What a mess.

Our donors pockets aren't big enough yet to retain a strong team. It probably takes a few years of saving up and investing to get us to the point of being able to retain talent.

Do we invest now on a couple of low talent players or wait a couple years to invest in someone bigger? No way we would reach Rogers asking price. But in 2 years we could. 

One or two players won't make a dent, so I hope our collective is focusing on 2 or 3 years out...

Not sure any FCS or high school would with those stats. His name is burned now and needs significant rehabilitation.  That he's still here says a lot about our financial priorities
