Balta1701 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I uh….what? just got an ESpN phone app alert about…Hitler and Michigan State. So this is both real and …yeah. I’m surprised I needed to say this, but I preferred having the number of ESPN alerts I’ve gotten about Hitler to be 0 and am disappointed that changed.

Texsox Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I've met him a couple times and I have to admit I'm a huge fan. Jeff Traylor is a great human being. https://footballscoop.com/news/jeff-traylor-rat-trap-mack-brown-posion-cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinky Stanky Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 NU is 4-4 with an interim coach and a football program supposedly in tatters. Which is the same number of wins that they had in the last two years under Fitz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Brian Ferentz fired by Iowa effective after the bowl game. Beggars can't be choosers, would love to see him gone before then, but at least this nightmare has an end date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocked that happened with losses of McNamara All Lachey...but Deacon Hill performances causing most faithful fans to rethink their appetite for another five to ten years of Ferentz ball with PAC 10 teams arriving on the scene soon to wipe out Big 10 West.

Two nice wins for the local guys. Looks like Illinois found a QB there. On Heisman watch, I don’t think he’ll win over a PAC QB but to me Jayden Daniel’s season beats anyones. Especially because in spurts without him they look pedestrian. And lastly, thank you to Mizzou for giving me this team when all my Chicago follows are atrocious. Cody Schrader is such a cool story, but would have never guessed he would become Christian mccaffrey basically. Probably could have just rode him to a Georgia victory instead of passing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Jimbo Fisher fired. Texas A and M has to pay him $76 million not to coach , which is more money than JR ever gave another teams free agent . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting coming off a huge win over Miss St....will go 7-5 or 8-4 if they could knock off LSU in season finale. Heisman: Penix Daniels Nix seem like as good a final 3 as any. Penix might have lost frontrunner spot these past two weeks. McCarthy definitely needs a huge Michigan win over OSU with bigger numbers after pedestrian game at PSU.

Texsox Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Texas A&M won't have to look very far for an excellent candidate. Jeff Traylor at UTSA would be a great fit. But he may be too much of an idealist for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Not a TAM candidate but Barry Odom has completely turned around UNLV in one year. He showed a real knack for coordinator hiring while at Mizzou (Heupel, Ryan Walters) but just couldn't recruit enough (drinkwitz initially couldn't find the best assistants but could recruit and fixed the latter). I think a year or two of success and he should get a call for a major program again. Get one that has innate recruiting and he could be a really dominant hire.

Boopa1219 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I'm very curious to see how ND handles Gerad Parker and if the school admin will finally allow Marcus Freeman to hire who he wants. They balked at the buyout of the guy he wanted prior to this season. If they had a better OC, they're probably knocking on the door of being a playoff team.

Their WR are not good vs man coverage and Hartman has been less than advertised. Also the RB have been awful on blitz pickup. I think you have trouble getting a quality guy to come if you're pulling the trigger on the current guy after one season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 https://sports.yahoo.com/plaschke-room-hot-seat-lincoln-024318051.html If Riley/Williams are going to the Bears, they desperately will need an outsider to raise the level of the defense somehow… After all the drama the last two years and transfers taken with him…OU fans have to be feeling better about Venables. Would have been right there without the Andrel Anthony season-ending injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The resistable force against the movable object. Without Cooper DeJean, Iowa would be run off the field by MU/OSU and it has already happened against PSU. (Well, who knows with MI at this point the way that team has been hit by controversy and shaky offense.) They only have had a competitive championship game with MSU...who consequently got boatraced by Bama. Basically on second QB and #3/4 TE for half the season...and a slew of running backs have been in and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
