I know you said to google but off the top of my head Daunte Culpepper and perhaps Daniel Tosh lol

I think you may be the first person in the history of message boards or the internet to say that.

I went through a phase in college where I was really into the flexbone, Fisher Deberry and Air Force were my 2nd favorite team. I'm not that into it anymore but I do like the Bob Davie flavor of it at New Mexico. Then again, the wins are exactly piling up there either.

This is a pet peev of mine as well. It seems to never go away and even commentators are guilty of it.

I have no sources for this, this is just my take but Gruden is done coaching. He's like that Steelers coach before Tomlin, he'll be linked to every big job until people realize he isn't coming back. Gruden's brother maybe, but Gruden has a sweet gig on arguably the most prominent game of the week. He gets to talk football and still have a life and say "Spider 3 Y Banana" as much as he wants, do the QB corner thing, I just don't see him giving that up.

Takings someone else's coaches is one thing, taking players with them makes me uneasy, plus he'd have to sit out a year and our immediate need is at QB with a bunch of pocket passers. I know some think Gebbia could do the job but I don't think he's as fleet of foot as most do. He's a gamer so he'd give it a go I'm sure. I looked it up and is Darlington really a Junior still? Seems like he's been hear longer than that, he might be our best open aside from grad transfers and juco guys.

Does @knapplc run the @ solid verbal? It seems to check all the boxes, clever, logical, humorous

Maybe I missed it, I'm going back and forth between this and MNF but I thought the UCF guy volunteered reluctantly his location.

I'm sure they're not, they're just using it to tell if people are making multiple accounts prob.

Mods prob have IP address access.

I don't like the commercial runza's but the runza's made by my grandma and mom....AWESOME, really hard to make though.

*whispers* I don't like Runza's either..... *hides*

No. I try and give everything a shot, but not going past the thumbnail here.

I was talking to my wife during the game when Jaimes got hurt and this came up. How is it that I can remember every player from every team in the 90's but am surprised to learn there is a guy on our line named "Jaimes" who has started 9 games or whatever. I think it's because when I was a kid games were still on the radio and they would be announced with an urgency by Kent and they would just be cemented in your brain. Without all extra info of the internet you lazer focused on the info you could get, the depth chart or roster list in Saturday mornings paper.

Scott just had his kid IIRC, but the paralells are there. My wife moved to Florida as a teen, her father attended all three Uni's Nebraska, then Florida and UCF (the three most talked about Uni's in this thread). My wife is a gators fan (kinda sorta) and I don't mind them since they didn't have a history of beating the crap out of us in the Orange Bowl. So I've followed both UF and UCF closer these last 6 or 7 years than I had the rest of my life. My mother-in-law was up in arms the day Eichorst was hired. I was hoping she was wrong, she hates Miami but still recognized the damage he did there. She had zero confidence in Riley from the start if for no other reason than the guy that hired him. I was optimistic and it sucks when you have to admit your mother-in-law was right. Also I was SUPPOSED to go to the infamous UCF game where Scott got boo'd (depending on who you ask) but my mom got pick-pocketed shortly after she bought the tickets and I couldn't go. I listened on the radio as some no name QB named Daunte Cul-something gave us more fits then they were supposed to. I was a Frankie London guy because he reminded me of other short QB from Louisiana..... but I never would have boo'd Scott or any other Husker.

I remember the Pelini hiring, I was amped just like everyone else then when he was hired my co-worker who isn't that into sports responded "Isn't that what everyone said we were getting" or something like that. He didn't mean to but it was like letting go of a balloon filled with my happy emotions. I hope it's a slam dunk like that. Then I remember the Tressel stuff, I even remember seeing that same ItsHappening.gif today which made me worried. I never wanted Tressel but that sock thread was fun.

You learn things, about other stuff. For example, my wife is making BLT's for dinner and apparently we're having another baby soon, had no idea.

This thread has a weird effect on me. I wasn't a big "WE MUST HAVE SCOTT OR I'LL DIE" guy until I started reading this thread. I seem to lose all control of my mental state and get super invested. Seeing how badly everyone wants him you can't help but get caught up. Yet when I walk away from my computer I become a normal human again it's weird.

One of my favorite movie characters of all time. .....and I'm not at all surprised he wound up on this thread.

NICE!!! didn't see your post first. Catching up in this thread is hard.

I'd rather have Beetleguise as our new HC

The story I heard was he asked the players around them what they wanted to do because it was 'their team', they wanted to go, so he did. As a leader he took the ownership of the decisions result.

Although this would be interesting information why would one do that to themselves? Masochist?

At every level there are coaches who think they can "fix" a guy they are enamored with. Their was a good clip of Coach Leach talking about this very thing. We saw his numbers at Tulane and thought he'd be different here and so will the next team, at least enough to get drafted.

Interesting
