Re: Improved team from last year???

"Lack of talent or lack of development of talent? Part of coaching is overseeing progression of player development - both in terms of skills and physicality. If our guys were in position but unable to make a tackle, it could be evidence of lack of proper conditioning and skill development."...

Re: Improved team from last year???

I feel the key issues this year were as follows: 1. QB Play 2. Youth 3. Loss or Lack of Effective Play from Oldest Players 1. QB is the position that turns the tide of the team (look at Packers with Rodgers against Packers with Hundley). QB Play early in the year was among the worst in the nation an...

Re: View of coach Jinks from a veteran football coach

Wow, only 6 seniors contributing. Look, coaches play the best athletes regardless of how they got there. So to have 14 seniors not being a major factor not only means that there is a talent drop off but, it also means that Jenks didn't drop these guys last year--which shows alot of heart in my opini...

Re: We've talked this to death and it isn't gonna change...b

Each MAC school will gain about $850,000 a year from ESPN. Previously it was $120,000. But as most of the ADs who were interviewed stated...it was for the exposure. Yes guys, this is about money. And yes, I agree it ruins the SAT experience in November. But unfortunately, when someone waves an 800 p...

Re: Another de-commitment

The negativity of this website...which is the first website any recruit would see if it is googled...will do more to crush recruiting than anything else. It's one thing to say in a post "what kind of call did HC make by taking that penalty," OR "dang it another interception." Tha...

Re: We've talked this to death and it isn't gonna change...b

500,000 more per game x 7 year deal....$3.5M more for BG per game Moreover, the original thursday night airings of MAC schools a decade ago is what moved the MAC from the 11th best conference up to the 8th best in college football. If MAC said NOT to Tue/Wed as Northern Illinois wanted us too (11 AD...

Re: We've talked this to death and it isn't gonna change...b

Need to google ESPN contracts....in general, MAC schools went from 150k a game to around 650k a game under new contract as ESPN wishes to move football to the open 2 nights of the week.

Re: Another de-commitment

Not being too picky, but from what I read, Antwuan Johnson and Deandre Fitz-Henley are the top athletes on the recruit board (247sports), not the young man you listed above (Hargrove). Moreover, it's not really a decommitment if the athlete was offered by a slew of Power 5 schools. If BG spots a gre...

Re: What about QB#4?

Doege is bigger than Johnny Manziel, to suppose his injury was anything other than just a bad accident is ridiculous and is an example of someone looking to find something else wrong. That's it.
