    The strong, silent type.

    POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

    There's no doubt that is happening through back channels.

    Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

    I agree with the roster management comments. I think the "this coach sucks" takes are just easy, low hanging fruit to pick by fans. Donnie is a good example... I can point to a lot of positives up front other than right tackle. I can also just say we had 30 sacks so fire him. I'm not crazy about...

    Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

    I think Key was fine and you could see the talent, but he was also a wasted asset as we just couldn't get him the ball enough.

    Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

    That's what we did this year. I'm somewhat indifferent to Dylan coming back. As I've said for most of the year.... I don't think he was the problem but he really wasn't the solution either given our personnel limitations. I don't think Dylan's skill set matches up with what Rhule wants to do...

    Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

    There's a reason that our sacks went to almost nil the last three games. Dylan's inability to make decisions under pressure was the reason for 50% of our sacks this year. 27 sacks through 9 games, and it was really only 7 games as Akron and Houston Christian don't really count given their...

    POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

    I agree. I can't imagine that he would leave Bama for Penn State. Penn State is barely a top 20 job in my opinion. The pedo scandal looms large there... forever... as it should.

    POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

    I agree. I think they overplayed their hand and thought that they could convince Cignetti. That was plan A.

    40TH Anniversary of the release of the Super Bowl Shuffle

    I remember staying up and taping this off the radio on the Top 10 at 10 on KGOR. Had the Black and Blues Brothers poster in my room that was put out by Chicago area Chevy dealers. My cousin ran a dealership and sent it to me. Also had the 1986 follow up...

    POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

    It could be a coordinator. It could also be Manny Diaz. Klatt even mentioned Deboer again today. Its probably the echo chamber, but there's so much smoke that he's not happy at Bama.

    Here is Practical Explanation about Next Life, Purpose of Human Life, philosophical/religious facts, theories etc.

    How did I ever miss this boondoggle of a thread? It was so crazy, I had to bust out "boondoggle".... Underused, if you ask me.

    Big Ten Postseason Football Teams and Awards Announced

    Who had Kenneth Williams on their bingo card as our highest ranking All BIG selection (obviously excluding EJs pending 1st team selection and the rest of the offense)?

    POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

    I personally think Cignetti was their target and he spurned their offer and now they've turned their focus to a candidate that is still in the playoff picture. That said, these other "offers" that are being leaked could absolutely be coming from outside coaches' camps versus PSU. Every coach...

    POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

    Penn State just isn't as attractive of a job in the NIL era imo. Their biggest strength was being near a hotbed of talent in Pennsylvania and Ohio, but that doesn't carry as much weight when you can just write checks to get players. They're in the middle of nowhere, difficult to travel to, and...
