Actually Stanley is the compliance department because he's looking the other way

Tidbits from 247 article: - 247 sources say it is too close to call right now between ASU and Nebraska. Bama doesn’t look to be an option because of numbers. - Distance was never a factor until recently, and even that looks to be speculation. - Nebraska has the family edge, especially because the only school where he and Matthew can play together is Nebraska. He also has another cousin here playing softball. - He has hosted ASU and Bama this week. Nebraska has not been in yet and it’s unknown when they will be. But we’re seeing Ty Robinson in the coming days, so it could be around the same time. The end.

"Good Lord we need a pass rush"

this is true

I am big advocate for conference champs. If you can't win your conference, you don't deserve to be there. This is would make it like having regional champs.

Don't forget that he didn't win his division or his conference in 2 of those years either

Please mods/admins, get rid of the eyeroll reaction. Nobody seems to know how to not obsess over them. Cue eyeroll reactions.

He also is not here today as previously anticipated. Rumor his visit here was pushed to this weekend but hasn’t been confirmed.

No longer visiting Florida.

Visiting Virginia Tech this weekend. Will probably have a decision Monday.

Oh, neat. We have an eyeroller who doesn’t seem to mind that the reason Trump isn’t concerned about impeachment is because his followers will revolt. Do I need to translate what that means? It means he isn’t concerned because his followers will fight for him, literally. And if he’s not concerned it means he expects them to win that fight. And if eyeroller isn’t aware, a revolt will mean deaths. If Trump is impeached and convicted and he’s not concerned, that means he’s okay with winning due to revolt. If a revolt saves him, that’s a coup. It is not at all crazy to think Trump will try this, which is what I was saying. He’s already said above that he’s fine with a revolt. I’m literally just going off of his words. It might sound crazy because this is America and of course it could never happen, but it’s also never happened that we have a president who has said anything like this.

I love how all of you seem to think you can just grade people now! Look...it took years of not really attending class, copying off others, finding the easiest classes I could, giving up my dream of being a PE "teacher" because some of the classes sucked, failing the Praxis test numerous times and then creating a resume where the only thing on it that was truthful was my name and phone number, to earn the right...no no...the privilege to give out grades. Yeah...but I guess I would give Frost a B-...unless he parents called/emailed complaining...then I would jack the grad up a bit to get them off my back.

Is Martinez going to be the first starting NFL QB from Nebraska since Farragamo?

So you spend several posts chiding me for not considering wins and losses in my grade and then say that you'd give the same grade for a two-win discrepancy?

I think part of this issue is people are arguing two different things - without really realizing it. People who are saying the East is clearly better are basically pointing to the overall better teams being in the East. Which is true. But all that says is that the East is harder to win, which isn't necessarily the same thing as saying it is the overall better division. The East also has three pretty bad teams which gets overlooked by the East apologists but definitely affects the balance of power between the divisions. The issue is the East is nothing close to a bell curve. They have four good teams and three really bad teams - Sagarin has the East teams rated 4,5,10,30,57,65,121. The West is a pretty natural bell curve with teams rated 11,33,36,37,49,56,110. So the top four teams in the East are rated higher than all but one team in the West. But there are also three teams in the East that are rated lower than all but one team in the West. Put another way, six of the West teams are between the East #3 and the East #5. When you actually play that out on the field, the result is that the divisions win a very similar amount of games against each other. Obviously the match-ups are not balanced so it's not a perfect measure but it gives a decent idea.

I think the top G5 school should have to be within the top 12 or so to make the playoff. If the highest ranked G5 is a 9-3 Boise State ranked 21st, then 3 at large teams from P5.

As has been the case with every QB since the forward pass was invented.

I also think that more teams are competitive now and 1 loss now is probably equal to 0 back when you could just stack rosters

If you went any higher than a C+ you need to put down the Kool-Aid The team went 4-8!

I hope that the case that is laid before the American people by Mueller or the SDNYAG (most likely for campaign finance law violations) will be so iron clad, closed book evident that his supporters slither off the Trump ship like rats off of a sinking ship. That his 'revolting army' of supporters will become deserters.

Is Phyllis the NCAA compliance department in this gif?

Heard of a guy that goes by the name "Marcus Marriotta"?

From what I’ve heard we will be home Thursday or Friday. It will be a raid of coaches there. Also will visit his cousin. May be a 2/1 deal so frost can go in home with both at his cousins house.

I am thinking... 3,300 passing yards 550 rushing yards 30 passing TD's and 10 Rushing TD's

I think someone kinda said this already the other day, but at some point the Republicans need to stop defending Trump before it's too late, either politically for them or because of something worse (e.g. the fate of the country). I have no idea which way this is going to go so I don't know for which reason. Anyhow, I was just reading that we don't know yet what help Flynn gave, which leads me to believe there is a lot more yet to be revealed unless his help was only related to Manafort, which seems unlikely. That just isn't enough to recommend no jail time, imo. I hope they make a movie about this 10 years from now that has more of the details and timeline.

I'm so confused, why does trump need a single dollar to pay for the wall? I thought mexico was going to pay for it. This doesn't make any sense.

Visit is in the works of being set up. He apparently had some academic issues but he has made up a bunch of ground and should be good to go. Clouse mentioned many have noted his film was not that impressive but he apparently was coming off an injury and had to miss 6 games due to transfer rules. HOL guys think we are trending in the right direction with him and Noa.

Your forward thinking is much appreciated !!!! MR last class is missing the 1,2,3,4,6,8,13,16 and 19th best recruits. SF is missing the 8, 10, 19 and 24th best recruits. Looks like it may be awhile.....

You're probably right, but if he isn't a finalist at a minimum before he leaves NU then something went horribly wrong. A True Frosh putting up the numbers he did without playing his senior year in high school is pretty amazing to me.

I'm guessing he's numb to internet wackos already.

Hey cool, he'll be on the next season of Last Chance U

I laughed!!

STIIIIIIIIIIICCCKKKKKK TOOOOOOOO SPOOOOOOOOORTSSSS! Edit: To all you eye-rollers, It was a joke/reference to 1620's USC show!

Interesting to go back and read thru this after Frost's first year. Good reminder of just how inept Riley and Co were, and how colossal of a rebuild this is. "Why is the scout team defense only going half speed and not trying to strip the ball?" "I'll have to look into that" Smgdh.

Those are great numbers but I doubt he wins the Heisman next year. The media will be all over Tua and Lawrence.

CFOs, per this article, see recession coming by 2020 - just in time for the 2020 presidential election. One reason I HOPE the Dems don't nominate a loony tune character as their candidate. Good chance the Dems take over all 3 branches if the economy tanks. On the other hand, Sen Flake hopes and wishes that someone will challenge Trump (maybe a hint that he might). If Trump is charged prior to 2020 I expect several Repubs to jump in and if so I hope Kasich gets the nomination. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/most-cfos-see-a-u-s-recession-coming-by-2020/

It's been 10 years since I've been THIS excited for a season. Like yeah 2018 was exciting for the change and debut and all that jazz. But this team is about to be good again. Like scary good again. Sure there will be flaws and frustrating games. But we are going to win a lot of games, and look good doing it. It's so damn nice to feel that way again and not have to say it with a s#!tload of doubt in the back of my mind.

247 also likes us pretty well - they have us at #17. It's the Composite that doesn't like us as well - that's where we're #21.

If I remember right, we had 50+ new players at the start of the season. I'm not too concerned if a few decide to leave. Add a new recruiting class this year of close to 30, and I find it amazing that they turned the roster over in two years.
