3 years 27 weeks ago I hope that Gibbons' Coach

I hope that Gibbons' Coach Dicus pronounces his name "dice-us."

Awesome.

3 years 27 weeks ago Downturns are bound to

Downturns are bound to happen, and they're tough to experience.

Truthfully, I'd be encouraged and psyched for 2010 if we go 7-5 next year. After this year it'd be frustrating to hear people bitch about the quality of any bowl we'd go to in 2009. This season has definitely provided perspective.

3 years 27 weeks ago Agree on all points. You can

Agree on all points. You can wrap the ribs; it takes at least six weeks for any rib injury to heal. Tape the wrist and splint it until it's isolated.

The shoulder, though. That's the key injury. If he pushes it too much he could end up being a perpetual china doll because it's susceptible to re-injury.

If he's not getting drafted, prudence and next season have to be the priorities.

3 years 27 weeks ago Questions

If Minor has a year of eligibility left is there any reason to rush him back out there if we can have him healthy for next year? Returning to action with one injury with two games left is what tough guys do. Returning with potentially three injuries with two games left is what tough guys do to win a national championship.

Given Minor's performance this year is there a real expectation that he'll attempt to enter the draft next year? Or, is there a hope that he'd return to improve his draft stock with an emboldened 2009 campaign (we have to get better, right?)?

Enquiring minds want to know.

3 years 27 weeks ago Threadless

Brian, you're probably getting loads of suggestions for vendors, but Threadless rocks. They may be looking for additional revenue streams (hard to tell in this economy) and are fairly close by in Chicago with physical storefronts, as well. Just a thought.

3 years 28 weeks ago If the rumor's true...

that Forcier can't enroll early, wouldn't that give Beaver the edge for next year and potentially point to Forcier being redshirted?

This is all pie in the sky, regardless.

3 years 28 weeks ago Go Navy.

Beat Notre Dame. Extend the new streak.

3 years 28 weeks ago Attendance Figures

Most schools compute the attendance figures well before game day. This may (or may not) account for the 97,000 figure. Michigan does this, in case you're wondering.

Meetings used to be held on Wednesdays (as late as 2004) and all of the folks responsible for game day operations were in attendance. The attendance figure's determined at that meeting, and in painstaking fashion to be as accurate as possible. In addition to tickets sold, numbers are computed to include vendors, police, EMT's, ushers, band, visiting band, color guard, Yost's seat, etc.

So there you go.

3 years 29 weeks ago Well said,  The 3-3-5, and

Well said,  The 3-3-5, and I'm not speaking authoritatively on this, is the defensive equivalent of running the triple option.  You provide a unique enough problem to the opposing offense such that they have to devote extra practice time to deal with it.

 

Anecdotally, my freshman year of undergrad our defense ran a similar system and two of the linebackers made the vast majority of tackles for the defense.  The DL's and DB's weren't even close.  We went 1-10 that year.

3 years 29 weeks ago Hang tight, brother. We'll

Hang tight, brother. We'll get better (we have to).

As a basis for comparison, Toledo's Coach is going to resign today.
