    Spring Football Thread

    I’m looking at the pictures and videos that have been posted. I don’t think there are any measures that indicate we should be better on defense other than hope and optimism. Nothing wrong with that, though.

    Spring Football Thread

    I’m really struggling with the quote feature right now. I selected multiple posts but can’t get them… Thoughts after reading through: 1. Dylan losing 5 pounds doesn’t seem like much nor does he look different to me. Seems like the media is all just agreeing to say positive things there to help...

    OT: Tipping

    Share the same sentiments as a lot here. I’ve gotten better at not tipping for a transaction. Money for a product, no tip. If a service is involved, and like others have said tips are a key part of their income, tipping is a must. And I no longer tip lower than 20%. But, it’s rare that I go...

    The Athletic article on the 2005 recruiting class

    I had a theory that’s at least 10 years old so no way I remember all the justification I had, but I believe BC’s real downfall was his reliance on JUCO recruiting. In short, our 2007 was like 2024 FSU with no culture, etc.

    The Athletic article on the 2005 recruiting class

    On 3, he saw the writing on the wall. He would have made changes and listened to people, but Osborne was uninterested in helping. He never was going to help the guy who replaced Solich.

    Fuck it, I’m all in…

    My younger son (4 years) had Omaha winning the whole thing. When he figures out what basketball is and why I was asking him all those “or” questions, he’ll be devastated. My older son (6 years) picked “Robbit Moron” to win it all. There’s still hope.

    Is this from the tic tock?

    So um, Bourbon thread? Yeah, Bourbon Thread.

    Yes. I’ve had some amazing bartenders. My wife calls me the bartender whisperer because I always get free drinks. My secret… I geek out on the science and the experimentation. I love hearing about what they’ve done, and the creative process they took to get there. And surprise, bartenders like...

    Jokic

    I wasn’t a Russ fan until he played in Washington (I am a Wiz fan). I thought he was a joke but getting to see him play hard every play changed my opinion of him. Still, he was chasing stats that year and his teammates boxed out for him to get those rebounds. Joker is awesome. His passing is...

    Football Coaches/Media Availability February 26

    The between the lines messaging which has been consistent yet subtle is indicating the issue Rhule had with White was the rigidity and commitment White had with his system. And conversely, the reaction that White had when Rhule pushed him hard to be flexible… all of a sudden White just acted...

    2024-25 Portal SZN Thread

    They had a good defense last year and he was one of the starters at CB. I would think yes but not clear why he’d transfer as this point. Its either tampering or he’s being told that someone else was taking his snaps. I’m not sure we want to add another player at a position we’ve added so many...

    2026/2027 Tennessee-Nebraska Series Cancelled

    ESPN already owns the home SEC games. So, their inventory includes something like an extra 7 games vs what a 9th conference game would deliver. Effectively, a 9th conference game would eat into ESPN’s profits and is in no way valuable to them to pay more to incentivize the SEC. — On this...

    B1G + SEC Collab

    The point about setting in stone what was likely to happen every year anyway is what annoys me about this. And when the fans of the SEC and B1G are disagreeing with their push, perhaps it’s time to curb the greed some. The only benefit is going to administrators who profit from making playoffs...

    So um, Bourbon thread? Yeah, Bourbon Thread.

    I had two friends win GTS from the VA lottery this year. Fuckers.
