Well, I think there is a slight difference between, you should know Lane will move on from you to look out for himself….and you should of known if your school made the CFP with Lane he would ditch you before it started.   Hard to see that one coming.

but it really  highlights how college football is really meaningless and pointless.  I mean a coach makes the CFP and is like nope.  Not interested…..I need to go to LSU so I can get these kids to what? You certainly can’t sell the idea you are there to help them win a natty lol

. 

His ultimate goal is to get back to the NFL, he could care less about college, that much is obvious, but he keeps taking steps to bigger names, next will be an NFL team

Who knows with Lane Kiffin.

I honestly wouldn't want to go from college where I have full control and at a program like LSU where I have a major resources advantage and  an gobble upbekife recruits to the NFL where I'm going to be reporting to a GM with roster control and a more level playing field.

It's beginning to be the same level of pressure but less commitment.

It's likely to just be an ego thing.

Haha.  Penn State. 

Fires James Franklin, who went 104-45 and made 8 (5-3) appearances in NY6 bowl games, including winning 2 CFP games, out of the Big 10.

Hires Matt Campbell, who went 72-55 and made 1 (1-0) appearance in NY6 bowl games, never a CFP participant, out of the Big 12.  His win in the Fiesta Bowl was against Oregon who literally sat every starting skill position (including a young QB named Tyler Shough) for that game as it was the COVID year.

I couldn't be happier for a school that did nothing about young children being molested by the football staff for decades.  I hope they suck for the next 100 years.

People have got to stop ranking these teams based on records. 

James Madison is 11-1, and if you let them play the 6 worst teams in the SEC, and the 6 worst teams in the Big 10 they'd be 0-12 and the average losing margin would be by 14+ points.

 

Don't be ridiculous. They'd win a few I'd those games. They dropped a poo ton of passes tonight. This game could easily be pretty lopsided. They certainly don't belong in the playoffs though.

They might beat Purdue, I'd still lay with Purdue just based on size and speed. 

Forget the drops.  I'm basing my opinion on the fact that JMU is incredibly small and slow, and that's with another incredibly small and slow team on the field with them.

All you can control is the opponents in front of you.

Besides, I would rather see a regular G5 participant in the playoffs than a C-Tier P4 team that conclusively proved they couldn't win when it mattered.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
