Any predictions, scoops, scuttlebutt, prognostications, hopes, dreams, wishes, desires, thoughts, or rants?

3 QUESTIONS
1 - What could potentially come out of the interviews?
Some people will talk. There will likely be players that are interviewed, and they will say words. The players representing the team will currently be on the roster. HCSF will speak, and it will be very to the point. It may be taken as tense, but also he will have some moments of a smirk that will indicate he's confident and calm going into the season. He will really be shitting his pants wondering if people have caught on that he says the same thing every year. But some people will LOVE it. Others will want him dead regardless of what he says.
2 - Who the fuck does Kevin Warren think he is?
Kevin Warren sucks. And he will show that he does by the words he says. Even more important to pay attention to, though, is what he DOESN'T say. As Stanley Hudson once taught Michael Scott during his annual review - sometimes a woman says more in her pauses that she does in her words. And Kevin Warren is a bitch, so...qualifies.
3 - How is DONU's staff gelling?
The biggest topic this offseason has been on Nebraska's staff changes. And that won't stop now. How are the coaches coming together? Are they gellin like Magellan? Coaches all have different opinions...how could they possibly work together if they haven't been together for a decade? Has Scott named an interim head coach yet for when he gets fired, but is an alumni so the university still wants to respect his opinions? Why did he pick Mickey Joseph? Riveting shit.
2 THINGS WE'VE LEARNED
1 - What's said at B1G Media Days...
...Doesn't mean jack shit after B1G Media Days. But people still fucking LOVE IT. People will give right answers. Lincoln Riley will say "I think the B1G will have to adjust to US...if I haven't bolted for the NFL by the time this thing takes place" before realizing he's not supposed to be there yet, and that no one had asked him a question, and then goes off to smoke himself a brisket. Players will talk about how much money they are making due to their school's great support system. HCSF will win another off season natty with his quips and demeanor. But none of it will matter merely one month later.
2 - No One that matters knows or cares who Sean Callahan works for
On3, HOL, KGB, ISIS...no one knows...no one gives a fuck. But Dean WILL find a way to make a story about himself at some point. Even if there's nowhere to publish it. He can't post on a site? No biggie - ever heard of NOTES APP? Dean has, and he will use it like a 17 year old school girl committing to join the softball team at Marian University in Indiana. No one will care - but damn if the posting of that Notes App isn't the most gratifying 3 minutes of his week while he reads through it, misses 4 typos, gives it his stamp of approval, reads it through one more time with a proud look on his face, then hits post - only to get WRECKED on the lovely app we know as "TWITTER"
1 PREDICTION
1 - REALIGNMENT DOMINOS WILL FALL
Kevin Warren will do the only thing he can do to justify himself as commish - announce some remaining additions to the B1G. Notre Dame, IUPUI, Stanford, Washington, Virginia/Va Tech, Utah, Colorado, Austin Peay, Pitt, UL-Lafayette, Oregon, Pacific...Some will make sense - others will be head scratching. But such is the new CFB Landscape...a little bit of sense, with a lotta bit of head scratching.
