Odds are he beats lsu this year for 2 out of 3

I know we will likely be favored in that game

It's more likely that you get a real set of teeth and salaried employment.

"Super 70's Sports", when you finally take a break sometime tmrw afternoon you can thank me.

This.

Cuomo's speech today addressed this.. we'll soon need to cut our losses economically and accept the fact we are going to lose a chunk of the weaker population.

The herd must continue.

If there is no football in the fall, one has to wonder if that is not the nail in the NCAA's coffin leading up to & possibly including an XFL type takeover or corporate co-ops. AD's in large part are practically over capitalized as it is being "non profits", factor in a year of virtually zero revenue?

Nightmare. Not every institution will be willing or able to subsidize that catastrophe.

Legs aren't the issue, it's his shoulder. He's been beaten to shite for 9 years and his style of play contributed to that.

Long way round the block, but yes.. legs created the issue. You run, you get hit.. can only take so many of those in this league.

Sherrill crawled into the SWC HQ's a few years after y'all parted ways with him & asked the Commish to help him with a job search (divorces & floundering car dealerships were catching up to him). Commish respectfully said "I can't consciously do that".. soon gets a call from the MSU AD wanting some feedback on Jackie.

AD tells MSU Pres & Board "no way".. thinks it's done & gets a call a few days later "we hired him without you".

Boosters.

Buddy works for a printing company... TAMU AD has a speculative order for "UNDEFEATED 2020" cups in place if the upcoming season is cancelled.

Byrne's problem was the same as his problem at Nebraska. He sucked at managing football.

Not sure Byrne had enough full control @ either spot, not sure many AD's do when it comes to football.

NFL: Accuracy & brains in place of any threat to run.

As much as I loved Vince Young, the end result came as no surprise. If I'm a GM I'd go X/O's chalk talk & some kind of in game simulator as a qualifier. For every Jeff George & Vince Young you have the Joe Montana & Drew Brees types that say "Hola!".


Different game. Natural selection.

I must be lucky! We had 3 guys on our staff that could hit 90+ In high school. They all played D1 ball.

Might be that none actually hit 90.

Our HS rotation:

DRAFTED/signed pitched @ UTexas
DRAFTED/signed NYY MiLB
DRAFTED/1 year San Jac JUCO then redrafted/signed with Rangers Milb
NOT DRAFTED/pitched @ JUCO/Baylor

All thought &/or were reported in 90's. None did in HS, one got to low 9's in college.

Sorry, busy evening. Main office is in Dallas, had to figure some things out.. Dallas County goes "Shelter in Place" as of midnite tnight. Check email, responded a bit ago.

Welcome to the future folks, social distancing is here to stay. Personally started it years ago by default... it's all good/no worries.
