How much more like CBB do we really want CFB to be?

Absent coaching malpractice (of which there's no evidence to suggest Marcus Freeman is capable), that's 10-2 and a #12 final CFP ranking at worst...

The answer to your question was in the quoted post, but here it is again (emphasis added): "...The Horns got some additional, but still relatively minor, consideration because of the value of their brand to the conference (buyout/wind-down of Longhorn Network; full share on Day 1; premium brand...

If I were benevolent dictator, I’d make you the commissioner of CFB…

The only reason to add a school to the league is if that school brings in more incremental revenue (from added eyeballs) for each existing member than each existing member loses from dilution to the new member's share. That's why SMU had to agree to no ACC share for several years - they bring...

While I doubt ND would join the SEC (but never say never; see next paragraph), I'd enthusiastically support it provided ND joined under the terms similar to those for UTw. The Horns got some additional, but still relatively minor, consideration because of the value of their brand to the...

Or King Mack...

When Franphony left for TAMU, I predicted that he would fail there because he would have no moral authority with his players because of “hold the rope“ and his subsequent dropping of it. That turned out to be prescient. I think Kiffin will suffer a similar fate at LSU, for a very similar reason...

Your OC and/or quarterbacks coach should be your sports psychologist if you’re the starting quarterback - frankly, that skill should be a requirement for those coaching positions. Of course, the OC should also provide you with a competent game plan…

@JessN, my reading comprehension might be off tonight, but I don’t think I saw the words “Ryan Grubb“ anywhere in your analysis. Ultimately, he’s responsible for the offensive plan, and it’s an offense that quite frankly has underwhelmed all year in no small part because he doesn’t seem to be...

The Good: we’re not playing rugby, which is an 80 minute game. the Bad: if only it were just bad! Ugly: Ryan Grubb’s not learning anything from his debacle last year in Seattle. I sound like a broken record, but I’m starting to think that it’s broken because it’s right…

The main issue to me is Ryan Grubb. Unless he’s just trying to lull Kirby into a false sense of security…

If he has a pro surfer girlfriend we wouldn't want him anyway, based on precedent...

Tim Brando will be shocked to learn that, according to this WSJ article today (the link allows gifted access to non-subscribers) Penn State did have a plan; it was BYU's Sitaki; but it crumbled because of efforts from a BYU alum/cookie magnate. So, you might say PSU's plan was only half-baked...

And yet with one minute left in the game, it was a one score difference and we had the ball…

I've never coached a sport at a level higher than 4th grade soccer, other than one season as an on-base analyst for a girl's high school softball team (sounds like an 1980's Cinemax movie, but it wasn't). But I know a thing or two about leadership, learned sometimes the easy way and sometimes...

"There’s no way in my mind they would have let today go by without a Head Coach, without having contingencies in place." He does realize this is the same university and fan base that to this day doesn't believe Joe Pa actually did anything wrong, right?

Key criticisms of Ryan Grubb I found from some online research: Overall the offense became inefficient and predictable as the season progressed. Rushing attack especially abysmal. Lack of running game identity, plus inability to scheme around poor O-line. Grubb failed to design a run-game or...
