The first game actually. You could argue that the rest of the season didn't live-up to the hype of the first game, but it's hard to deny that the national attention that he got after the TN game eliminates the possibility of calling his next year a break-out year.

I really feel pretty good about this depth chart. Everybody either has decent playing experience or significant talent. I suspect that if Cooper comes back healthy and game-ready, then Lee will move to LT and Will to RG on the starting OL.

On December 16, 2016 President Obama held a press conference. After his opening statement, at about the 8:30 mark, the first question from AP was about Russia's hacking during the campaign. The president's answer continued till about 25:45 when he received a follow-up. One of his last points...

and?

Again, it's not what he said. As I've said before, I think he blew it, and I agree that his answer to that line of questioning legitimately raised this concern. However, if the media in our country had not been trying spin a Russia-Trump collusion narrative, then it would be easier to focus...

That and somehow talking heads keep saying he's Putin's puppet or whatever. His actual policies and actions are going right at Putin. Energy to Europe Weapons to Ukraine Undermining Iran Attacking Syria Building ties to Korea and China Almost everything he DOES weakens Russia while his words...

1) My ref to GS was that he had a top or very good D there. So, if you're going to make the argument that the O affects the D that data needs addressing. 2) It is inaccurate to say that we had a much better D with "similar academic restraints" since APR only came-in in like 2006 or so. 3)...

Very intresting.

We have more sanctions on them now than before Trump iiuc. I could be wrong. It's not like Trump took a reset button over there.

To be clear on my opinion about Trump's press conference: I cringed and could not watch it in one sitting. I thought he muffed the question on US Intell v Putin. That being said, I understand why he did. He was responding to US press who were trying to undermine US diplomacy. We haven't...

Palin actually helped him some imo. He tanked nationally when he said the fundamentals of the US economy were strong in September 2008 when people were losing houses and jobs.

Not at Georgia Southern. What's your logic for the coupling that explains both data points?

John McCain was a great hero. Last year he was tested whether his personal integrity or his animus toward Trump would drive his decision making. After years of campaigning to repeal and replace Obamacare, he voted thumbs down. Only someone with years of working with classified information...

Because you don't think Defense contributes to wins and losses. Tevin's offense in 11 and 12, despite the hiccups of Vad in 12 were really darn good.

Already being discussed

I swear, the number of people who continue to post as if Defense is a non-factor in wins and losses still baffles the hell out of me.

S&P+ is a descriptive stat, reporting how successful a squad has been, so it doesn't make sense to say that it looks at returning production etc. Now, if your point is that that's what Bill Connelly does when projecting the next year's S&P+, well fair enough. Since he talked about the new DC...

Just so that we understand your expertise, how many have you talked to in the last 5 years?

It's a good write-up. I think he's a little too pessimistic. After showing that Nate Woody had significantly better Def S&P+ at App St then Roof at GT, he predicts no real improvement on Def S&P+ (from #66 in '17 to #65 proj. for '18). He's projecting we go from #61 to #40 in Off S&P+ which...

OK, I'll say it once and drop it. Our QN TaQuon (still one name) Marshall. Since he seems to go by Quon, I think either TM or QM would be better abbreviations. TQM just gives me horrible 80s Total Quality Management flashbacks.
