Re: Resurrecting a dead horse: Interesting Heaps article

It matters like having a rotten tooth pulled matters. It stunk. You're glad it's gone. But you still wish things hadn't gone so south in the mouth. Heaps was building positive momentum towards the end of his Frosh year. He got derailed by all of the off-the-field stuff in the off-season. It was a LO...

Re: Special Teams and Turn Over Margin

Not feeding the Voldemort-resurrected Troll. I agree with the OP on Virginia. Special teams wins us that game.

Re: Resurrecting a dead horse: Interesting Heaps article

Gaskins gave Riley a fish. Riley gave Jake a stone. This. Exactly this. Well said. This is what probably bothered me the most about Riley. Gaskins was tremendously selfless in favor of the team and Riley. Nelson was tremendously selfish in return. Almost to the point that it makes me wonder if Rile...

Re: All Time Coaching Lineup

Re: Rank Order the Offensive Problems

#1 Offensive coordinator (I'm telling you, he is the wrong guy for the job if we expect to win average teams regularly) "Beat average teams"? Or maybe "win games against average teams"? "Let's eat Grandma!" I yelled. She took a bite of her food. Then we ate her. My 5th...

Re: Rank Order the Offensive Problems

In addition to (not supplanting) those above, 7) Lack of "Likening". As in, Hill looking at bad snaps near own goal line in early games that cost the previous two QBs their jobs and not thinking, "what would I do in that situation?" and FALLING ON THE BLINKIN BALL! instead of tr...
