Lots of time...just watch how well we do, we'll land or flip a 5 star OT and a 5 star Guard by early December

Agreed. E(SEC)PN only sees the surface. We have a LOADED running back room with a ton of talent, and really good coaches...we'll be fine this season running. I agree Sir Charles, will pass protection improve?

FCS: "we already know the result of those games. The lesser team is going to lose." Unless you are in Seattle hosting the University of Montana...

Masoli's last season was "09, so...NONE. Daron Thomas lead us to the NC against Auburn in 2010, 2011, Marcus was '12-'14. I bet a of those games in the tally were those early years, and '15 with Vernon Adams. Anybody know who was #1 on this list NATIONALLY?

Hey we stopped this one yesterday

Tanker.MOV This is how I prevent forest fires 😏

1. Agreed. If Flowe and most of these guys stay healthy, with these coaches...and I think the secondary has a TON of talent too, maybe a bit young but by November??? 2. You cannot ever have enough craft IPA's.

Only one with any real playing time, and Nix's is significant. Lots of untested talent, plenty of guys for scout team.

This is a huge hire, on the road to rebuilding our distance events to it's storied traditions. This will be huge for recruiting and with the portal, some immediate results are likely.

If DL does what we hope he will...and in the end he'll out recruit Mari Crisbal after we win conference championships and they go 8-4... yes we could win in the B1G too. tOSU isn't invincible, DL and staff recruiting big classes will beat most of the UM, MSU, Wisc, PSU types. Or go 13-0 in the Pac and make the playoff...put your money where your mouth is in the real games.

My only concern is he'll get a much-deserved big payday offer as a HC...if he has a great year or two here can we pay him more than most first-time HC offers to stay a couple more years as OC? We still have to wait and see how '22 plays out but the optimism is blooming

That banner is very Stanturd red...what about lightning yellow? 😄😉

USuCk will be 8-4, OU 9-3, Notre Dumb will be 8-4, Miami will have no offense with a great QB...ask Justin Herbert about that, Mari Crisbal goes 8-4. Brian Kelly at LSU...the guy finds ways to win and has talent. Will it be a tie with Venables or can he go 10-2 in the SEC west in his first year? Will bowls determine the outcome?

When we beat Utah for the second time the first weekend of December, and we are 13-0 and USuCk is 8-4 again...he'll know where to go

The Big 12 is a part of the country where football is a more fanatical part of the everyday culture, like SEC country, where as the west coast just isn't. The Texas markets are big for TV revenue obviously. The B12 has been stung by UT and OK bailing to the SEC, as well as TA&M. Could the revenue and rabid-fandom be a better fit? The B12 has some really good Baseball, Softball, Track, Basketball etc. too. If USuCk and sUCkLA bail with the LA market, is the remaining Pac financially relevant? We can still beat the beeevers annually in a non-conference game. CO and UT bring good size markets, plus AZ/ASU. Could the B1G, SEC, and B12 be the 3 super conferences? FSU and Clemson end up in the SEC? Basketball won't matter, 50,000 conferences get at least one in the the dance anyhow. Duke and UNC will survive on basketball and Lacrosse.

I'm talking about 2012...the refs probably took a natty from us in that game, we'd have been the BCS #1 and Alabama would not have been in it and that Notre Dumb team didn't match up that well to us that year.

And...LA and SD are big markets but college football isn't the only game in town or even the big game in town like it is anywhere in SEC country or a lot of other places. Think about USuC and sUCkLA with 7200 in the stands in the Coliseum or Rose Bowl in recent years for home games and the embarrassment that brought the Pac. Unless they are winning that won't change.

He was spot on in this article. The world governing bodies of T&F have been an excrement show for decades. I get that there are cheaters and people doping and drugging to try to win...remember Ben Johnson? But at the root we have sports where it takes you back to being a kid...who can run the fastest, the farthest, throw the farthest, jump the longest or highest... we should all relate to T&F at it's most basic levels. This will hopefully be a wakeup call for the sport. This was absolutely ridiculous, like the Crap 12 refs in the Stanford game in 2012, can't even get it right with a review. To say that Devon's DQ is the defining moment of these games is pathetic, sad, and disgraceful, but...100% spot on true. Lame for T&F, and the athletes that work SO HARD to be at this level, I feel so bad for Devon, he's taking it like a man, gracefully, but it has to sting. Money and politics, conference realignment, everything wrong with sports is rearing its ugly head at every turn lately and it is ruining sports. Sorry, I'm back in Fairbanks and it's gray cold and rainy and I'm hungry and ticked off the fun of sports to divert from the craziness of this world is becoming like everything else wrong with the world.

I bet we land record number of 5* in the end... by a large margin. Some DL/OL/LB and the RB...Young, maybe others

Looks like big bleachers with triple decked areas...a lot of people

Looking everywhere for pics of what Hayward looks like with 25,000 seats...basically doubling to meet the world standard. Doesn't look like it will fit very well in the north end, curious if anyone has any pics or renditions, I've searched the web and came up blank. Wish I could just go, what a cool event. Can't imaging traffic and hotels in Eugene right now. I've been working in Alaska, hotels in Fairbanks are often in the $600/night range, endless tourists.

I too appreciate what he brought us, but a lot of fans were screaming for Chip to come back when Mari left...I was not one of them. Different era already, time to move on. I'm excited about a new era of innovation. I don't really even want him as OC now. OC needs to be a good recruiter. Helf was a great OC...

I don't think football or sports is the main criteria for a lot of these

Great hire. XC should be pushing for the top again, hopefully he'll have some great assistants to keep sprints at a high level. Please Uncle Phil it's time for a world class indoor facility! How could recruits pass it up? Eugene, Hayward...
