There's a Rivals $ article saying Hufanga has set his visit. I know rumor was for Ohio St. Anyone know if this article confirmed Ohio St? Or is he maybe surprising us this weekend?!

Confirmed for Ohio State. 

Stanford -5

Clemson -22.5

Louisville -4.5

Considered taking Nebraska/Wisconsin over 46 and TCU/WVU over 69

That late chiefs defensive td won my matchup for me in my other league. Also cost/won people a lot of money in Vegas. 

Sure is nice to be sitting up top at 4-0. Now to not mess this up

is he signing in December?

I think I read somewhere that he was originally planning on it. Might change though with the rumors that have been swirling.

Im sure he plays against very talented players.  But that still doesn't mean there will not be a learning curve in college.  Maybe a big one (1 year), maybe a small one (1-4 games) but Im not expecting him to come here and be a lockdown corner his freshman year.  He will be going up against receivers from OSU, Michigan, MSU, Wisconsin, etc that have been in the college system (games, practices, S&C programs, film study)for four years.  Lamar Jackson was a very talented and sought after player and he is still trying to get his feet under him in year 2.

I understand what you're trying to say here but you really can't compare Lamar and Bookie. Lamar came in having spent his whole HS career at safety. Having to change positions and now learn his 2nd defense in 2 years is tough on anyone no matter how talented they are.

Pretty much. Big ups to Cam Newton for sh!tting the bed this year. 

Had a guy in another league offer me Cam and Jaquizz Rodgers for Drew Brees. Not sure what he was on but that was the quickest no in the history of fantasy trades. 

Sounds like Redux needs as much help as he can get after getting a trade declined and taking a big fat L in week 3 at the hands of my team. Redux send me a trade and i'll see what we can work out. 

If this was all in reference to my post about Reilly stepping out of bounds on the play i was meaning it in a sarcastic way. In no way was I trying to tear apart what the team Riley accomplished that night. There are many areas of this team to complain about the last 3 years, that night was not one of them.

Make sure Wisconsin drops a game-clinching interception in the last minute of the game, and the referee ignores our WR running 2 yards out of bounds to avoid the CB and then come back in bounds to catch the game-winning pass.

But don't forget he was forced out (not really) so it was totally legal.

Week 4 picks:

 

West Virginia -22.5

Miami -13.5

 

First week I haven't picked Nebraska. Gonna stay away from them for a while. 

2-1 for the week and 8-3-1 on the year. Apparently West Virginia couldn't find a way to score one more point as they won by 22.

You can enroll early if you want to as long as you do it before the sign up period for classes ends at any University (typically 2 weeks from the start of the semester). You don't even technically have to sign a LOI. Daniel Hamilton came to UConn from CA and never signed a LOI despite committing. Showed up in the summer like normal and was on scholarship both years he was there before leaving for the NBA draft. The LOI just technically binds both sides to the agreement that the student will receive an athletic scholarship and be held to xxx xxx standards because of that scholarship. 

Got it. Thanks for the info

interesting timing since thats after the December signing period.

Thought this as well. Assuming he can still enroll early or has that changed with the new early signing period?

MIke is a nice guy. 

Eichorst I've got nothing.

Doesn't mean he does.

I agree. No one here really knows what Frost wants to do. If given the chance I'd like to see him take his shot here. I think he will be successful. But until he's offered the job it's just guesses. 

Well assuming Frost gets a call at the end of the season one would think it would be tough for him to turn down. Coming back to his home state and alma mater is something a huge majority of coaches want to do. I guess the next 4 months will interesting times around these parts. Lets just hope Riley and Co. can put a decent product on the field to give us something good to talk about.

Cubs need to win 9 out of last 12 games and they are in.

 

Question....anyone seen the Cards lately?  Are they fielding a team this year?

Cards are trying. Just can't consistently put it all together.Defense has killed them the past 2 season ever since Jose Oquendo left the big league team. 

They will have some interesting off-season decisions to make this year. A lot of good young arms in their farm system that it's time to figure out a plan for and it's time for them to make a decision on Wainwright and a couple of the other bullpen guys. 

Weren't Bookie's quotes in the LJS story taken straight from the BRW interview?

How I feel about fantasy football this year

 

+1 for this sir. 

Just by looking at the video above I'm not exactly sure where Wibon was supposed to go. When all 3 LB are moving forward at the snap that usually spells disaster.

That pick on the bubble was entirely on Langs. Unless there's some sort of read there that Tanner makes that I'm not aware of this play stood no chance. And for people to blame Morgan is equally undeserving. Just a terrible play call. #Runtheball
