Too much

Do any of them know how to setup blocks for a punt return? That would be quite nice.

What does punt "return" mean?

If the players have been slacking off in the weight room that could take a while to correct.  It takes time to build strength.

Absolutely.

And I'm not trying to make any statements, I've never been to the weight room. Not even sure what you do there.

I just wondered if the blame isn't more on the soft culture under Riley.

Regarding who is the coach of the year in the state of Florida...

Blitz?   That's a word I have not heard in a long long time.   

I'm trying it tonight! I'll let you know how it works, but I think my memory might be hazy.

Exactly.  I felt good when I read a few seasons back that Epley was back on board. I assumed that the conditioning of the team would improve with his return, when it seems to have slipped the last few years .

How much of that is the culture under RIley? Lack of accountability and lack of drive. Only so much he can do if the players aren't in the weight room.

What was it before?

I think that’s fair but if you take a year like this year and ND went undefeated with that schedule, the would be the clear 4th choice IMO since the other two CcG winners had two losses and ND beat one of them blowing them out no?

I'd even take a 1 loss ND over 1 loss bama this year. I know I'm contradicting myself.

I try to put NU into their shoes. And I've thought that if NU were to ever go independent and still expect to be included in the playoff discussion that we would need to do a few things.

 

1. Go undefeated

2. Play ND the weekend of conference title games essentially giving us both a CCG

3. No bye week, even if not all opponents aren't world beaters, we would play 1 more game than the P5 conference champions, and 2 more games than the schools that didn't make their CCG. Use it against them.

If they played 13 games, sure I guess.

Not that my opinions means a damn.

Let me be clear, I really do not like ND. But, it seems most years they play a pretty legit schedule and should be in the conversation. This year alone, USC, Stanford, Georgia, and Miami. If they had gone undefeated with that schedule you couldn’t keep them out 

Lots of teams play a legit schedule and also have to get through a CCG. imo the lack of a ccg win should count against them.

Is this a tease or a cry for attention?

I had forgotten about the Irish.  My stance is: If Notre Dame wants to be included in any playoff, then they should be forced to join a conference.  Either join an FBS conference or pound sand.

I hate them. I'd be happy if they die alone.

I would like to see an 8 team playoff. Give an automatic bid to each Power 5 conference winner, and have a lower level playoff system for the remaining 3 spots. The eligible teams are other Conference winners. No conference championship, no chance at a MNC.

BUT NOTRE DAME

Why doesn't their first game against Memphis count? They gave up a lot of points to two teams that are better offensively than anyone he will see in the division and held most teams to under 24 points.

Without a bye week!

What's the tally now of Frost offers? 8? 9?

Is the press conference going to be on BTN? Have they said where it will be aired aside from locals?

That seems like a fake title.

Hey blame knapplc I am sure plenty of you still hate me. I remember that one guy that is no longer on the board I think he was banned for life or something that hated me with the passion of a thousand suns. I cannot remember his name though, he was a soccer coach at IWCC or something I think? 

No hate from me. I take most of the off season off the board, so I can't remember who hates who when the next season starts. 

6 minutes ago, Hedley Lamarr said:

It is kind of funny really....knapplc is the Hedley whisperer. I'm sure he has his post saved when he told the board that they would eventually not hate me lol 

Don't get ahead of yourself!

I'm pretty surprised by this. I never followed recruiting closely but within a couple hours five offers is nuts. I figured it would be a couple days. He hasn't even been to the podium wearing red yet.

Didn't happen. 

 

Don't you think one of the recruits would've leaked the story if they knew?

I'm not trying to say anything one way or the other. I just wanted clarification because saying it's BS without context is confusing.

Can anyone read the rivals article by clouse conforming 7 assistants? 

It's in the thread about assistants.

According to UCF recruits, this is BS.

BS as in it made them angry, or it didn't happen?

Memphis has had the better 4th quarter on offense. This isn't going to end well.

This is bad
