    I'll be interested to hear what Frost says after the UCF-SF game when I'm sure he'll be asked questions about his future.  He'll be on an emotional high after the game more so than after any other game of the season whether they win or lose.  Will he play a game of semantics, be iffy, or act like UCF is his future long-term? 

     

    It would be a great win for him today, his third perfect season. Maybe with the excitement he isn't as measured in his comments and says something that just lights up this board!

    Michigan fired a guy who won a MNC, then fired a a guy who won the sugar bowl, then firs a guy after three season who improved every year. We should never assume we cannot get a coach.

     

    Lloyd Carr retired. You can argue he was forced out but he was not fired.

     

    And he didn't win a MNC!

    ;)

  3. A general question: Is the NFL going shy away from kids that have been through concussion protocol? And specifically, is it a strike against Lee?

     

    Generally speaking, a sever head injury could hamper a player's chance of being drafted or signed. However, with Lee, I don't think it's an issue as he wasn't out cold waking up confused 5 minutes later in the locker room. Lee's injury sounds to pretty low on the severity scale.

     

    Since this hasn't been really been mentioned, it's either a non issue or we're all ignoring it. I vote 'non issue'.

    Who's NWMSU?

     

    Northwest Mo State in Maryville. The Bearcats have won 6 D2 MNC in the last 20 years. They had a 38 game win streak snapped last month. The Bearcats are 84-9 since the start of the 2011 season.

     

    One of their MNC rivals is Grand Valley. Their accomplishments are nearly as impressive. 32 consecutive non-losing season's, .729 winning percentage. 4 D2 MNC in the last 15 years. The Lakers have a 40 game winning streak, a D2 record, and it was snapped by NWMSU in the championship game.

     

    NWMSU is a fun team to follow. Being from Beatrice, some of my friends are NW alumni. Living outside of Ann Arbor, I now have several Laker friends. These teams are a blast to casually follow.

    "I've always liked sports. I haven't been that good at it. I've been redshirted now for 61 years," the 80-year-old says with a laugh. "They're just waiting for the right offense."

     

    At other schools, wealthy alums might want their names plastered on stadiums or meddle in football affairs, but Buffett, Class of 1950, isn't your typical billionaire. He's just a fan. If he donates to the Nebraska program, he does so anonymously. Instead, his considerable charity donations have gone to causes such as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to address education, health and poverty problems.
