    I remember the story of Brent Key recruiting him, where in the middle of the conversation CBK stepped away to take a quick phone call while Chase continued speaking to another coach. 2 minutes later Key came back and said something to the effect of, "That was just the head of Turner...

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    That chart is indeed sobering. Still, I note that it chart was provided by FSU, and I'm also looking closely at the specifics. It would be interesting to see this chart a) including the ACC Network, and b) for the years 2017-2021. Obviously FSU has historically benefitted from the narrative...

    Agreed! Also closer to home, so that's probably a big plus.

    UNC DC Geoff Collins

    It certainly doesn’t make me happy…but I pulled together some info a while back, and the idea that he coasted on momentum that was already there in previous stops (including by as an HC) is fairly well supported. That being said, I think it’s very possible that he does well as DC. As has been...

    I'm starting to hate FSU fans.

    Don't forget how much of the entire commentary from pregame onward will focus on FSU and what they have to do this year. And how everything happened last year. And what their new QB needs to do. And what his history was. And how good their kicker is. And how good their punter is. And... (Oh...

    Conference Realignment

    This. With so many things in college football, it's easy to look at it through the retrospective lens we have today, rather than the blurry lens turned towards the future we had at the time. Case in point: Everyone talks about how dominant FSU was last year (and they were). But they also...

    My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    I believe the name is "James 'Mad Dog' Munlyn," thank you very much.

    Conference Realignment

    Agreed. It did de-emphasize Tech-Alabama as a rivalry, though. But most people today don’t even know that was ever a rivalry. Same goes for Tech-Auburn. Sad to see so many traditions torn down, it this has been the way for a long time. I think it just used to happen sparingly, whereas now it...

    Coaching Carousel 9 - People die climbing mountains

    Yeah - it reminded me a LOT of how cool it was when Scott Frost got off the plane coming back to Nebraska.

    Bobby Dodd Renovation in the NE Stands

    To give an idea of how far a dollar goes, here’s what Nebraska is doing to their (admittedly much larger) stadium for $450M...

    Happy 404 Day!

    It really turned out as a thing of cosmic beauty, in a depressing way. Every time they yelled Money Down (which embarrassed the heck out of the fans), and we didn't stop the opposing offense (which was most of the time), we could literally see all the money we were throwing down the drain.

    Happy 404 Day!

    Temple was still coasting on the recruits and scheme Matt Rhule brought to the table. It declined under CGC. Much like most of the defenses he's led - his predecessors advanced to bigger roles because they were hired away, and he was able to coast just long enough before bolting to give the...

    Happy 404 Day!

    Sigh...I'm not yet at the point where I can react to any of these clever comments with a laugh. I'll get there. (A win - or better, a straight-up beat-down of our opponent in Chapel Hill next year will help.) For now, everything about that photo turns the stomach. As a side note, did anyone...

    Conference Realignment

    Also a non-lawyer - but someone who's been party to civil lawsuits that have moved through the courts. I think both of the above sentiments can be true here. This ruling was but one link in the chain. A motion for dismissal is one of the first things in the process that is always thrown against...
