Nike AND bust

No reason for BC to leave the conference...that'd screw me up for local coverage on our games up here in Boston! I like being able to find the occasional game on NESN.

I was very happy to see the revenge game against those guys. They got lucky catching us early that year, but it turned out to be an omen of things to come for Nesbitt's final season. When he went down against VT later on (just after breaking Dantzler's QB rushing record [emoji41]), we went on to...

He's one of the guys I worry about missing spring the least...dude knows his role and where to be on the field. Even working on pitch relationship, he'll usually be in the right spot anyway so if other guys can help Matt and the other QBs in practice it should be fine. Obviously you want...

Jordan's killer fadeaway came later in his career, as his athletic ability started to drop off. Kobe did the same thing. Early Jordan was a scoring dynamo though...Okogie's a hell of a player but he's got a LONG way to go to reach anywhere close to Jordan's level.

I'm not even really talking about our current staff, but are you going to try to argue that we've had good defensive coaching for most of Paul Johnson's tenure? Dave Wommack and the ghost of Al Groh beg to differ.

Our players aren't the only ones getting faster in the post-season combine training, so you can only compare our guys' times to the others out there. JT's 40 time relative to the all the times at the combine is very, very fast, one of the tops for anyone. We've had some very fast players over...

Whoever is in charge of the group, any chance you can open it up to allow brackets in who didn't join the group in time? I'm asking for a friend

Did this fool say Hewitt?

This kid (and kid is appropriate here, he's a ~15 year old soph) has a whole lot of skill, and is going to keep growing into his body over the next few years. He has some very big holes in his game, as well, but plenty of time to work on it. I expect him to mature just as much emotionally as...

Bench seating should be in the student section and the student section only. Having benches in the rest of the stadium only serves to increase tension between the fans because people inevitably fight over the little bit of space they've been allocated. This should be the first stadium upgrade...

Drone racing

Absolutely, at least now they can see the light at the end of the tunnel...it'd be a huge waste to go back down a level now. The time to make a smart, rational decision was before they put all their eggs in the Big 10 basket.

One thing that just boggles my mind about soccer (sorry, futbol) is the lack of a clear clock. Why do they have the dumb system of the head ref keeping track of how much extra stoppage time to add on at the end when stopwatch technology has been around for a long time? Just have the ref carry a...

It's funny to me that with all the complaints from rival fans, in the 9 years Coach Johnson has been here nobody has actually gone and looked at how many DL we've injured compared to other teams. If our style of play is so dangerous, shouldn't there be a trail of broken bodies behind us? I can...

Yup, football gets all the negative attention on the issue but concussions are a huge issue in lots of other sports. Not just the repeated headers adding up, but head to head hits when two players are trying to control a header are pretty common too.

You think UT is losing 3 SEC games but beating us? Boo this man!

Fully agreed, it hurts to lose them but they've completed their end of the bargain. For anyone complaining about graduates transferring out, I hope you also complained when Skov transferred in. Otherwise you're just a massive hypocrite.

Your starting hypothesis is wrong though, just off the top of my head I think Lucas Johnson played under center option football up to his senior year (I think they switched his last year to a shotgun spread to take advantage of his arm). Synjyn, even though he ended up at RB, started out at QB...

Dude, he graduated in 3 years and has done everything we've asked him to do. He held up his end of the bargain, as have we. Once a player graduates you have to be willing to let them go. It hurts to be on this end of the deal, but we've been on the other side as well. Did you criticize Skov the...
