Re: Video: Clark Lea, WR London Humphreys, DB Trudell Berry pre-Kentucky interviews 9/19

The disturbing thing for me is the emphasis on mistakes by the offene with ad naueam "ball security" comments when it is the defense that is allowing all the opponent points and the near atroucius pass defense. They both are bad, but I think even with the fumbles that the defense is worse ...

Re: First UNLV, now US News

I’m with Buffy, chasing rankings is bush league and complaining about it is even worse. But if we’re gonna play this game why did some of our peers, Northwestern and Duke, hold serve if it’s so slanted to the public schools. Good question: rankings do matter whether we think they are accurate or no...

Re: First UNLV, now US News

Yeah all alumni got the message from the Chancellor and Provost. We dropped but are in top 20. Going to be hard to overcome the new metrics.

Re: Despite the frustration, you KNOW CCL isn't leaving anytime soon

doc, I couldn't disagree more with your assertion here. Lea is a leader, he is not a robot programmer. Life is full of decisions and coaches know that in football games and in life these young men must be able to develop good decision making to be successful. I can't think of anything more stultifyi...

Re: Serious Question about Portal Usage and Vandy

It seems like our coaches have known or should've known that we were going to have a talent and experience gap in our secondary this season. So... why didn't we address by getting two experienced and quality cornerbacks in the portal? Our solution was to use a mix of the same guys who we know are a...

Re: Can we stop the construction? Wasting money.

Chancellor is purported to have chosen our coach: he has a major stake in this game - will be interesting to see what happens next. Will he ignore football like most predecessors, will he tell Candace to fix it, will he step in and make changes, or will he just learn to accept VU football as the a p...
