Too many places. It was also weird on the 700 post game, Sly had him ready to go for an interview but Rose abruptly left the locker room to go with the training staff instead of doing the on-air

We need to dump under armor. We need natural turf.

Just heard about this as well… wth is going on?

So, effectively, there is no recourse, and there is no accountability. The lack of accountability is particularly surprising in the world of sports where accountability is king.

Ya, at this point we’re at an impasse. No sense in continuing since it’s getting redundant at this point. I think what you describe illustrates how different the football culture is out west. Although my evidence is anecdotal, I’ve been to multiple PAC games, they don’t even have tailgating at Arizona St. Nothing wrong with it, just differe…[Read more]

There’s a rumor that he’s out for the year with a foot injury. I hope it’s not true…

Bernie Carbo….I still remember him hitting that HR in Gmae 6 versus Rawley Eastwick…one of the most iconic HRs in WS history. And then came Pudge in extra innings…

I loved when I watched the McMahon documentary how honest he was about his adherence to the code. And how he was drummed out of school immediately after that last bowl game. Thanks for coming, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.,,

Yeah, I’ll be 60 in a few months…I still remember Florida pulling their “Gator Flop” in the Orange Bowl. You ought to look that up if you want to see the definition of lack of class and sportsmanship. Can you imagine a team just lying down on a play and letting the other team score intentionally so that they could get another possession and…[Read more]

There is a mechanism for officiating accountability but it is not public so we never know it happens unless it was so bad it can’t be hidden like the SC/WSU targeting game on a Friday night. The conference had to acknowledge their staff members were involved in real time in the outcome.

Otherwise, the teams have to submit clips of plays they…[Read more]

’75 was the better series. Bernie Carbo v Carlton Fisk in 7 games. I can still name the starting 9 for the Big Red Machine and taught myself to dive headfirst into third based on that iconic Sports Illustrated cover of Pete Rose.

Your ancient ass is only 3 years older than me, mister.

That makes sense. I’m in my 30s. In my lifetime Florida vs Miami has only happened 8 times.

I’ll take a stab. I think Jay Hill is an elite recruiter and being in the B12 (compared to formerly being Indy) is a huge plus. I also think our NIL has stepped up.

The real miracle to me was that we ever got any decent recruits with Tuiaki as our D coordinator. No offense, but we joke that Utah is where QB’s go to die. Under Tuiaki you cou…[Read more]

Yeah, an Irish Catholic kid from New Jersey…I’m sure you did…how about the other Irish Catholic kid, Clay Brown? I’m sure he also followed the Honor Code.

How dare you, sir. I followed the honor code to the T 😉

How dare you, sir. I followed the honor code to the T 😉

Rick, thanks for those insights. Much appreciated.

I am fine with what Harlan did. (to me, being upset with what he said/did is a form of ton-policing that focuses on style over substance). There is absolutely no accountability for referees, and he did what he could. The fact that nobody else goes full-Harlan is part of what has brought us to this point.

I get that…but what about if the recruit isn’t LDS? Rick Walker just mentioned that only two percent of the students there aren’t LDS. Wouldn’t BYU have to way, way overpay to get some non-LDS kid to go there (or maybe some Jack Mormom kid as well)?
