That was my point and, honestly, it's hard to name 1 of those that did it. JJ for us wasn't that high. And are were a bunch that bust. Bair could fill a current need but just not worth a post here. Oregon fans probably get a little excited,  tho.

Ha! It's ironic.

Ha! It's ironic.

I was there. It was glorious! I want it to happen again. Trend with this AD isn't great. I wanted Brandon fired for the same reason and bought season tickets when he was. Never thought Beilein or Harbaugh should be canned and don't currently think Juwan should go (I don't know what happenedwith Sanderson). #wardehate. 

Keep defending Warde. Site…

Keep defending Warde. Show your work. He doesn't.

Okay.

Okay.

Edit: My low level comment is in response to a post that I don't think is currently relevant. 1 recruit that isn't a can't miss QB 2 yrs down the line that is "trending" away after we've lost a bunch of coaches is just not worth it.

Why do we have to keep Warde tho?

Most fans do not post. Reactionary posts get more traction than they deserve. You're right and you're special. 

You are Warde.

Warde has more missteps than steps at this point.

Guess I'm "Braindead". If you're around an athletic campus building you're closer than Warde.

Sure. Still haven't seen a single example of what he's been good at publicly. At some point that's on that guy. People can say "we didn't see our bball coach jumping at a terrible NBA job, we couldn't pay our baseball coach to stay, we can't get meaningful transfers admitted to sports, we're going to self impose penalties that no one else would, we didn't need to fire Mel when an investigation has concluded, etc"

These things range a lot in terms of validity, but don't imply that they are not indictments on his ability to be an AD.

Many probably are. Many…

Many probably are. Many wanted JB and/or Backich fired. They were wrong. I didn't want any of those things. I wanted Warde out recently only after many missteps. Don't deny he's not doing his job well. Not to mention anecdotal evidence that you can just use the ADs parking spot all over town at if you need to of you're someone that occasionally needs to be at multiple locations. He's never there.

Dude. You may be the only person who remembers a terrible K State coach from 15+ years ago.

It's fine, no one was harmed. I might have even laughed if there was context in your post or anyone had ever called him king. It's not long for the board tho, and will be remembered like Ron Prince.

Weather is also a problem for a large non essential purchase. Potentially flying on Monday/Tuesday with much of the US at risk is more than likely driving demand lower.

There was almost a 33% drop on the get in price the minute Texas lost.

Portalbacks seem to be a gamble, for sure. We've had a lot come in and go out without much change in their trajectory.

That's a very recent phenomenon based on massive changes in the cfb landscape. The Bama formula at A&M would've had plenty of success in the old system. 

He's one of the best at the college level ever. MSU can feel great about him leaving for a better job.

He's always made really good hires and changes when it didn't work. Impressive turnover throughout the years. Running out of steam, tho, and his last OC hire was questionable. 

Why would we do this? So you…

Why would we do this? So you can abuse the kids and have them revolt against the dumb corporate fascists until they get fed up and take it on themselves to beat Ohio?

Nah... 5 stars that want to win and bet on themselves will come here. Others will go elsewhere and half of those will transfer of any number of things don't break their way... keep the mantra about the team and keep winning. Transfer portal can plug holes and we've done well there. Don't mess too much with this or you end up like TAMU.

I am all about paying the players. Crowd-sourcing this and asking die-hard fans to do 'more' is a little off-putting. Do what you want with your money. Link the collective. There are other funds sitckied here. It may not have the best visibility, but people that want to contribute can seek it out on their own.

Win on Monday! Enjoy that talent isn't going to 3-4 schools every single year! Embrace the culture we've established! GO BLUE!

If you want a place that knows little about ball but thinks they know a lot, go to /cfb. Also  they'll overlook a lot of other, more effective 'cheating', for reasons. TBH, i don't think they like the dominance of their click link games, which is more on a lot of their minds than the real cfb oligarchs.

Revenue sharing is the death of the NCAA because they don't want to make it work... and our HC is talking about it when others won't.

Still not gonna feel bad for the coaches. Nope. They're well compensated.

Is it that different from other sports, just with 5-10x the teams?

Also, I don't know what anyone would expect without contracts. It has changed the game for sure, but I wouldn't say it's any worse, competition-wise... at least for the P5 level

Oregon could play with Sparty players and stomp Liberty. Undefeated against the bottom half of FBS, just like about 45 other teams.

How wrong was the MGo crew prediction of elite D with little O to this point? I think the talent is on the roster. Development throughout the season is something we've seen. I'm hopeful, not really optimistic at the moment

If they do OSU, is in deep shit.

Not if they keep losing. PSU definitely should go to the mattressesif it's true, but they won't. Franklin ain't worth it.

The guy made 0.6% of Harbaugh's salary. The "budget" was far less than that. If the advantage was anything more than 0.5%, then UM were not allocating resources appropriately. Also, I'm not sure any of this violated rules as they're written.

The rules could be rewritten or we can just get helmet audio.

Yet the HT show was them talking about how much advantage UM got (HUGE), but not actually alleging UM did anything wrong.

Hunter fails to make a tackle after looking real weak in run defense and not playing great coverage.... almost seems like you shouldn't play guys on every snap in a football game. Especially coming off an injury. 

He's a great player. Not being put in the best situations.

TBH, he looked like that for UM last season. Something is off, but he has talent. Hope he can mature and be successful. Won't happen at Iowa, tho. That move was a decision that should have him questioning anyone that told him it was a good idea (including Cade).

Was hired by John Gruden/guy who hired John Gruden... tracks. NFL owners, especially old money NFL, are not exactly people to look at for a moral compass. Protect the shield!

Also, to pretend these people are smart outside of football is ignorant. They have to hire people for that.

Maybe it'll help other kids avoid making the same mistake. One or more other kids will move up so that's an immediate positive.

It's not like he won't get drafted. He'll probably go to a better organization if he falls and still be a1st round pick! At that point, if he fails then it's kinda on his ability and work ethic anyway.
