  1. It is probably the beer with me as well, but with Urban Meyer out there, it would'nt hurt to contact the guy and seek his interest in the position...this one was a fireable loss. C'MON MAN!

     

     

    Classic...............when SP fired Frank, Urban was all the rage back then as well and could have had his pick of jobs (and did!). But when publicly asked about Nebraska............he said........"Why would I won't to go to a place that fires a 10-3 coach"?

     

    Sadly, not much has changed from that point on. Until we start becoming relevant on a national scale ( rather than the butt of jokes by the espn lackeys), we won't be an attractive destination job of the "name" coaches.

     

    And, we don't need to be in the market for one. We just need our current staff to be a little less stubborn and our fans to recognize that it's not the 80's and 90's any longer. We are not the alpha dog all alone out there.

     

    I know people don't want to hear about parity, etc. but the fact is that the Big 10 swims in it. And, while I detest the unnecessary losses like yesterday, it DOES make every week infinitely more interesting.

     

    We are not going to fire Bo, so lets move along to Penn St and see if we can find some D-linemen who can physically measure up. :boxosoap

  2. Yes, and not to pile on after a loss..................but there are some glaring inconsistencies on burning red-shirts .................i.e. we burn the back-up kicker early (??), yet at linebacker where we are woefully understaffed, we hang on to shirt of the (supposedly, according to reports) second coming of LaVonte by keeping Santos off the field.....??

     

    I know this sounds stupid because the coaches certainly know and see what is going on to a far, far greater degree than we armchair critics...................but sometimes I wonder if they may be too close to the forest to ferret out the obvious trees...........??

  3. We'll know we are officially back when we regularly start blowing the Northwesterns of the world out. I don't like how Boise State plays a wimpy schedule, but, I"ll say this for them, they always destroy teams that they are supposed to beat. Once we start doing likewise then we'll be back (that, and if we start beating top 5 teams!).

     

    How will you define blowout............?

     

    Point differential ?

     

    10 or less points allowed ?

     

    I expect Northwestern to score a bit on us tomorrow, but not to be able to stop us virtually at all. So, if we were to prevail say.............51 -24.........would THAT be a blowout ?

     

    If they move it on us consistently with a mobile QB and make the freshly laundered blackshirts look less than dominant....................is there any amount of points that we can score that would fit the definition of a blowout ?

     

    Just interested in your opinion...............

  4. As others have pointed out, there are more roles (thus more opportunities) for shifting strategies on defense....................thus making the argument for more potential blackshirts.............

     

    I don't have a problem with the numbers so much as I wish he would award them at the start of the season, and make changes to starters as necessary as the season plays out rather than waiting half of the year and then "surprise"....................

     

    What if Persa and the non-traditional offense we see Saturday makes us look a little disorganized and futile ...................do we then rescind the blackshirts and make this a yo-you system throughout the year........??

  5. Tony Snowjob was the most blatant liar.

     

    Dana Perino was flat out incompetent.

     

    Jay Carney is just another clown in a long line of clowns.

     

    Gotta disagree with you about Tony Snow..................probably about as well respected by both sides as we have had..........

     

    I agree Perino was more impressed with herself than I was........

     

    And even though Carney is an irritant that somebody should smack......................his predecessor resembled the "Family Guy" from Fox........

  6. That seems a little low for me. I think we have the potential to finish around the middle of the pack.

     

    I think the Big 10 style suits Doc and his philosophy better than the Big 12, so I cautiously agree with you.

     

    But, the bottom line is we need better players.

     

    It "sounds" like (if you can believe the coachspeak........) that we are slowly making improvements in that area.........

  7. Is there anyway Kansas can justify keeping him around another year? Sure, he walked into a bad situation, but he's made the situation much, much worse. I really wanted the guy to succeed, but... wow. they bad.

     

     

    I'll be very surprised if he isn't let go................................the tough thing working against him is that the A.D. isn't the one who hired him....!

  8. Rex Burkhead=fair catch specialist. Get possession of the ball with out giving up 10-40 yards of field position by letting it bounce. After 4 years of Nile Paul and his antics and now Abdullah showing some disturbing tendancies it wouldnt bother me if this became the norm.

     

    Correct.........................And, he is no Santino Pacino (or however we spelled the statue that Billy C put back there..............)

  9. I have no ill will towards you CT, I just don't agree with the way you handled it. I answered a question that was asked by a few here in regards to where I was, thats all. I have no desire to rehash that situation here. I am not going to discuss the matter any further. I hope you do the same.

     

     

     

     

    Fair enough, just wanted to make sure you understood my reasons. GBR!

     

    Is Cactus Boy OG short for Cactus Boy OH my GOD" or Cactus Boy "On Guard"..............???

  10. Cactus--You ended pretty well at HP, should have left it at that buddy.

     

    I took it as his mod position ended, which in my opinion is a good thing. For those that asked where i went, I was always there, I just stopped posting. After being banned for calling out a known multiple troll (who for some reason was obsessed with the fact that I posted on Shaggybevo), I really never felt the desire to post.

     

    I would equate it to this.

     

    I went to a wedding about 10 years ago that had an open bar. I really liked rum and coke at the time and drank it quite often. I really have no idea how many I had that night, but the fact that I was sick for 3 days after tells me it was probably too much. I've never had the desire to drink it ever since.

     

    Glad to see so many familiar faces. I look forward to meeting some new ones.

    Good to see your transfer of the seemingly unlimited clip library as well..........................

  11. Doc's teams have more injuries than any other basketball teams in history........

     

    I wonder if he needs to look at some of the training/practice methods.............?

     

    Never-the-less.................I think his style of play will translate better to the Big 10 than it did in the Big 12
