Harbaugh is a crooked, cheating, morally void coach.  His day will come

if it worked for the Patriots, why shouldn't coaches mimic it.  It isn't like Harbaugh is the only one.   He just is the only one caught.  I personally equate it to paying players back in the day.  Occasionally a team would get busted.  It was widespread.  I suspect tons of teams are doing variations of this. 

There is some clip of an old Denver player talking about Josh McD.  They brought it to Denver.  Then McDaniel's guy got busted.   But he said before that happened, the coaches could tell them exactly what was going to go down on a given play.

Not a lot of good games this week. It appears my Gators have a second bye week in a row. I’ll guess I’ll watch some other games!

Yeah, this seems to be a down week with Oregon vs Utah at 3:30 on Fox likely the best game of the weekend. Duke vs Louisville at 3:30 on ESPN might also be worth checking out though.

You know how the NFL does the joint practices but it doesn’t count against your record? Pretty sure that’s all this is this week!

The game is in the swamp so maybe they can keep it close and stay in it.  I will watch this one

Yeah, in terms of competitive matchups between good teams those look to be the best bets of the day.

If you coach big time college football / NFL and aren't changing your signaling week to week, you're an idiot and deserve to lose. 

Reminds me of the 2015 NFC Championship game when the Panthers used the exact same terminology and audibles from the Divisional Round and Seattle knew every play that was coming.  Speaking of idiots and losers, John Fox at his finest.  

In related news, Fuuuccckkk Mack Brown.  Go Heels.

I cannot comprehend this type of thoughts process at all. Look at where this program was. Fedora had us in the gutter. Look where we are now.

I'll never claim that Brown is a good Xs and Os guys or a good game day coach. He isn't. But he's a recruiter and a program builder and that's what we desperately needed. He has done what he was hired to do which was get this program back on track. The real trick is nailing the long-term replacement hire. Because everyone knew that Mack Brown was a short term fix.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
