No idea what level of interest LSU would have in Sheppard, but I do think he's an interesting guy to consider. He'd no doubt recruit, and it seems his leadership skills are highly respected for such a young coordinator. Dan Cambpell's opinion has to mean something.

Always remember the sound bite of him after the 2010 Ala game when he gave a game ball to Miles and said something along the lines of, "we don't give a shite what everyone says about you". Paraphrasing it, but our locker room exploded after he said it. Was the moment a lot of us realized kids would run thru brick walls for Miles. I could handle a little more of that in our program. The dude bleeds P&G and after Kelly, that has to be a factor.

I'm torn on Kiffen. The best play caller in the country, but I keep replaying in my mind him going for it on 4th down on his own 25, up 12 in the 3rd quarter, this past Saturday. OM didn't convert, but His Defense got a stop and bailed him out. If OU scores there and goes on to win that game, Kiffen is getting killed this week by media and his own fans. It was a seriously reckless decision in a huge spot, but it ended up working out and got buried. Like being aggressive, but that was insane.

Great memories of this game as a kid, sitting in the S End Zone. The contrast of colors on the field for this game and Ala always stood out to me. Both games were always later in the season when the weather had finally turned, and it just felt, smelled, and looked like college football should.

Fast forward to the mid-90s. Left the DEKE house in BR in a '69 Cadillac that seemed 90' long. We'd written on the back windshield: "Ole Miss Plays Football Like Old People frick" and we took off down I-55 with a car full of booze and window flags flying. The folks in the grove loved us!

Great times and always one of my favorite games!

Whole bunch of big buildings in the desert were built from 18-21-year-olds playing down to their competition in spot games. La Tech is good enough to take advantage of a flat team. Call it coaching or whatever you want, but there haven't been many teams that avoid a letdown at some point in the season.

Also, easy to get fired up this year because we seemingly have a very good defense. Those typically don't have off days like good offenses can have, and they travel well.

Thought Burnt Pine was good. Lots of forced carries and target golf, but what course in the panhandle doesn't have that? It was in great shape and way less crowded. Liked it more than anything else around Destin.

Best club fitter/builder in the area. Has a great studio and is a good dude. Used to work in a tour van, so you're getting a talented and informed guy. Also a really good guy and light years ahead of the Club Champion operation!

Golf course was in as good a shape as anything around for State Am and Mackel. Greens were crazy fast and fairways perfect. Place has always been able to turn the screw and get it in great shape when they need to, but the operation they have going is kind of a joke. The management, restaurant, and pro shop are lacking and that's putting it mildly. Such a shame for the massive amount of money spent. Reese Jones was a terrible pick to re-design it and the poor decisions kept going from there. Will be very interesting to see what LIV coming and the money they'll invest does for it. Better grow the rough knee high if they want to protect it from someone shooting -30 for 54 holes.

If a kid applies to Ole Miss and doesn't receive an acceptance email within 48 hours, it's probably time to start packing for special camp.

The gift that keeps on giving. Truly the saddest program in all of college football. Resources............ :rotflmao:
