    2025-26 Coaching Carousel

    Looks like they they pulled from their assistant to the assistant coach pool. Chris Wilson, the assistant DL coach is now interim DC. Che Hendrix, the assistant DB coach is now coaching safeties. Kolby Smith, who is still the RB coach, is now also the interim OC...

    2025-26 Coaching Carousel

    Pretty wild that the dominoes fell to set up Bobby Petrino as interim head coach. That’s one heck of a boomerang after he got canned for all the stuff with Motorcycle Gate.

    Adding to the UCLA news, it looks like interim HC Tim Skipper has fired their DC. No replacement DC has been named and the defense coordinator responsibilities will instead be a “collaborative effort”.

    2025-26 Coaching Carousel

    He and Rhule seem to be pretty similar in a lot of ways with culture building, desiring physicality in their teams, demanding a shit ton from their players and assistants and using some rah rah motivation. It also bleeds into both of them wanting to be very public facing. Fleck is just the...

    Did he just take Bo Pelini’s post-tOSU rant and ask Chat GPT to sanitize the language?

    Bud Elliot hates Nebraska..

    Back in 2008, some Nebraska fans on the boards noted how LSU's defense regressed and took pride in that. We snagged Bo from them, and the regression of their defense was validation that we acquired a great commodity. Florida St now has Tony White. It's not hard to see the motives on why a sports...

    Hello, brick wall. Got dayum, Rhule

    Totally serious response to this though: (and I'm a whiskey in tonight, so pardon the length and embellishment) This is a nice antidote to some of the fanbases' emotional misgivings with what they have seen so far. You can look at it as Rhule saying "I see you". The OL and DL issues? Rhule's...

    Hello, brick wall. Got dayum, Rhule

    Maybe he should have reworded it to "Leaked Bo Pelini speeches didn't have bleeps."

    Hello, brick wall. Got dayum, Rhule

    Step 1: Label the weekly "What the B1G is saying" thread as TOP SECRET NUGS. Step 2: Watch as Dipshit Dittman "leaks" the next opponent's fanbases insults into the public ether. Step 3: Inform Dipshit Dittman that Rhule would like to hear more nugs from where these came from. Step 4: Inform...

    Week 4 v Michigan - Saturday, September 20: Game Notes, Depth Chart, Etc

    Yeah. Kudos to the guy living worry free, but deciding to choose your vibe as Ed Foley if he ate Pot Roast is definitely a choice worth judging.

    Leave it to Michigan. If they're not using sign stealing methods, then they're bringing in people in that have Sports Almanacs from the future to fuck us over.

    Finally got to rewatch the game

    Something I haven’t seen brought up or perhaps missed this last week is Matt Rhule’s Year 3 at Baylor. Everyone points to that 11-3 record, but if you look at the scores and the opponents, half of Baylor's 14 games came down to one-score outcomes. They were 5-2 in those games. That would be...

    “We’re gonna run the damn ball” - OC DH

    Boiling it down: “I plan. Then I adjust.” Music to my ears.

    Foreshadowing reasons why the team doesn't improve beyond 5, 6, or 7 wins....

    I feel like Holgorsen will have some say and veto power over this on his end. He should require less handholding than Satterfield. As for defense, I’m really curious what Phil Snow’s gameday role will be. I could see him sitting in the booth parallel processing things and offering insight on...

    We made it, fellas…

    It’s like someone set up a simulated matchup of Scott Frost v Scott Frost.
