If Jeopardy ever needs an answer in the category of "Hubris", this thread is getting there. We need some football or something.

Obviously you have no clue about what's going on out there.

Never been in one but I think a) quick decision and b) fleetness of foot are 1 and 2 and there is no 3.

It may be fine for the "in" people. A lot of us aren't. And I would guess any attempt to get fans involve converts from all over. "Get out" sounds like, well, just a jailbreak. Got to be a better one than that.

Sounds like somebody fleeing a coal mine collapse,

Name the stadium? Why not let somebody put a plaque on his statue at the same time?

That's a good point. He's either saying only his recruits are ACC caliber and he is batting 1.000, which no coach in the history of recruiting ever did, or there is a mix and match element to his whining. (Because, frankly Scarlett, that's what that was all about. Can't have the Big Cheeses in...

I don't know who coached linebackers for Dodd, but over is career he produced some astounding defenders back there.

what he said.

having a chat room for any breaking event, sports or news, combines the worst of all worlds. It invites and encourages anger, disinformation, misinformation, emotional responses, and almost the complete elimination of any rational, objective and temperate conversation. Might be great to let it...

There's a rock song hidden in there. Too bad Chuck Berry is gone.

I hope the fan base, and certainly the coaches and players, do not build in a "Fail" line. 2014 was a great year and it's true, we were fairly close to a playoff spot. But to say we can never do better? Ever? Now that we have decided not to compete, then spend the money on club sports and be...

If you had Showtime and tried to watch the increasingly ponderous "Billions" you would know the term. You would not know what it meant because "Billions" is written by amateurs who don't explain anything that doesn't use analogies. But thanks to jtgengineer ... I still don't get it.

now you're being picky.

There was Moe Berg, but he was a baseball player, who was probably smart enough to understand analytics and explain it in several languages.

With apologies to Bull Durham regarding one, it is a simple game. You throw the ball. You catch the ball.... So you see, right away the damn thing is complicated because in 10 years we have had numerous guys who could catch the ball and just one guy who could throw the ball, and the guy we got...

Door No. 4 is legit. The rest, meh.

not sure what you mean. Schools routinely have a prospect's acceptance possibilities, mostly meaning academics, checked out before wasting an offer. So ....?

Nicely understated and you get a point for that. Maybe over on Ripple or whatever? No question we have had more downs than up of late and I have said previously, I think anyway, that anything short of nine wins this year will in my opinion fire up that exit sign. A pity, because the option is...

I believe that is the proverbial apples and oranges. That research adds to the luster and prestige and brings cash, but it does diddly for the athletic programs. And NO NO NO NO. I am not against research. It drives knowledge and I am not against that for sure. But the discussion was football...
