May as well throw in we play My Country 'Tis Of The after Q1, America The Beautiful at half, and God Bless The USA after Q3. Jokes aside, this seems like a fine idea to me.

It's just you. We've gone to CA the last 2 years.

No one knows jack sh#t about a snow storm 10 days from now. Its all just "look at me" tactics from weathermen. They are just "weather terrorists" (as a local talk radio personality calls them).

Dez Fitzpatrick rule?

But its really over.

This "conceded the year" stuff if ridiculous. Is there someone that redshirted that would have helped us beat Ohio St or Iowa? In 2008 Pelini redshirted 23 of 25 scholarship freshmen (and 32 walkon freshmen!). Was he conceding the year?

Can JP show up at his house Saturday morning and stay there all day with him so DT doesn't go to bedlam

Wonder if he knew something before the news became public?

But Matty said we are still in it!

Wish I could've found a way onto that private jet to Hawaii with Banker and co. Guessing that might be commercial

I think he was highly-rated early but never really developed as people thought he might. Not sure if that's picking up the mental part of the game or what. But considering he couldn't see the field with all the injuries we had this year, I'm not holding my breath on this one panning out. Did I miss something with Barnett or Decker? People are counting them out... Decker redshirted 2015-2016 season right..? Barnett severely rolled his ankle at the very end of campus/first game week and was out ~ a month. At that point, they made the decision they liked the OLine and getting him back in shape conditioning wise to play conference OL would be a few weeks anyways, so they redshirted. Unless I'm misremembering? Wasn't it Barnett that was eating his way out of a scholarship/playing time? I thought I've heard that a few times that he is way too heavy and out of shape. Or was that someone else? Let's just say that he needs to take winter conditioning very seriously.

I like the cut of Holmes' jib. He told Farentz and his "no visit while committed policy" to suck it. The whole situation that happened with my brother, Eno, and Iowa’s policy and how they went out and offered a committed prospect and tried getting him to visit when their recruits were not allowed to take visits at all just didn’t sit very well with me and I think it was handled completely wrong

Aranda signed a 3 yr extension with LSU yesterday.

Looks like LSU wants him at DB? Hopefully he really wants to play RB.

Gaylord is listed at #65. Agree. But the couple games I went to this year I noticed that thre were some linemen wearing odd numbers that went out for FG and XPs. Gaylord was one, I think Decker might have been another one. Did anyone else notice this? Or am I high?

Do we have any shot here getting in this late? Williams visited yesterday. Also, does this offer mean anything about Calvin or Lewis?

Did Gaylord ever see an offensive snap at LT? Pretty sure that I saw him wearing a number in the 90s and he would be the TE on FG/XP tries. Also, I could be wrong, but isn't Raridon at C and Wilson at OG? I know Wilson almost played at guard earlier this year.

Sure. But first tell me when he has ever coached defense.

Not saying that Banker is the long term answer, but... Comparing 15 to 16, our rush D got worse, but our passing, total, and scoring D improved. We allowed 50 less yards/game and 5 less points/game. Were the offenses we faced this year that much worse than we faced last year? 2015: #64 Total D 400.4 #92 Yards/Play 5.88 #9 Rush D 109.9 #32 Yards/Rush 3.77 #122 Pass D 290.5 #84 Yards/Att 7.5 #75 Scoring D 27.8 2016: #22 Total D 350.6 #46 Yards/Play 5.40 #36 Rush D 141.0 #59 Yards/Rush 4.28 #42 Pass D 209.6 #25 Yards/Att 6.5 #30 Scoring D 22.8 And not that I fully understand advanced stats, but they also show improvement DS&P+ 2015 #57 2016 #21 DFEI 2015 #70 2016 #51
