re: Pat Dye "all Condi Rice knows about football someone told her"

Can't believe I'm saying this but pat dye is right


Oh she's a fan, lets put her on the committee

What a crock of shite

Edit- spelling an did I say crock of shite? It's a crock of shite and the PC police come a running, oh you can't say that- frick that she shouldn't be anywhere near this playoff committee

She is on there to cast the swing vote to tilt the picks to Stanford or other non-SEC teams.

Watch and see! She seems like a nice lady, but probably doesn't truly know jack shite about football.

You said football knowledge. One would assume that if you're an integral member of an interviewing committee for a football coach and over an athletic budget that you just might have a decent understanding of the sport. That's just a hunch.

And yet Texas hired Deloss Dodds.

Well, yeah, of course it's a crock of shite if you put it like that. It's easy to make a valid point if you define the terms of the discussion. If she's "just a fan" she has no better argument than, say, Paris Hilton or Adam Sandler. The problem is, there are many much better reasons than her just being some random fan. I love how people on the Internet think they're clever when they're just being dismally obvious.

I'll post what I guess is you " many much better reasons" from your other post. Sorry on iPad this sucks posting quotes.

All I know is that I'd trust pretty much anyone over Pat Dye to pick a playoff team. The guy's a drunk and doesn't know to wash his hands after sticking his fingers in the turf. It's perfectly possible for a smart, capable, educated person to understand how good a given team is without having spent his autumns in high school playing 3rd string DB just to elevate his chances of getting laid by girls too ugly to attract the attention of the star quarterback. I played high school ball (2nd string, bitches) and I'll freely admit I'd trust Rice over pretty much every football player I knew because, frick, she's smarter and more capable of objective analysis than any of them.

First off no one is saying pat dye is an ideal candidate. No one is saying any random person is also an ideal candidate or more qualified just because they have paid football. What people are saying is an ideal candidate would be someone how holds some specialized experience. in the field of the position they will hold. And the most ideal candidate would be an expert in football, knows the ins and outs first hand(which includes playing and coaching) and also holds a somewhat objective opinion.

While hard to find those people, it is also very possible as well. We are talking about just a few people here. My ideal candidate would be a career nfl coach, although not obtainable. However retired coaches, or even job hoppers in the college ranks that didn't have a tie to a school would work well. Coaches have a better eye for the game, that's what they are/were paid to do.

Can you provide a female football coach or player who would make qualified candidate?

She shouldn't be on the committee...neither should any of those ADs. Get impartial people who know and write well about the game and are guaranteed to watch most games every weekend.

Spot on.

Hell I'd be fine with FBS coaches being on the committee. You know why? Cause football is their job. Condi's job has been politics, the last fricking thing that should be use on this committee

No. It doesn't. If it was primarily based on her qualifications, we'd be hearing more about the other "poorly qualified" members of the committee.

We have just not to this magnitude. Why though, because it the easiest to discredit and the most salacious in the news.
