I'm guessing Franklin. No reason to hold up what we know is going to happen

Have a good coach and some returning starters. I would not be surprised if they finish 3rd in the SEC and make it to the playoff. Depending on what opens up, Drink could parley that into a true Blue Blood hire and Mizzou falls back to earth.

I think you are picking up what I'm putting down. AHen was getting a lot of input from Buh, Leonard, and BB that he was trying to implement. AHen might have been trying to do everything instead of doing something cohesive. What Walters had was the confidence to handle 3 egos who all thought they...

There may be some truth to too many cooks in the kitchen. AHen might have been too deferential to BB, Buh, and Leonard which made him less confident in how he wanted to gameplan and call games. Not everyone has that Walters swagger that can be confident in a room of alpha-dogs. Also guessing...

It's incredibly difficult, but he isn't an elite athlete unfortunately. I think he is savvy and has the ability to be a 4th or 5th WR and special teamer in the NFL.

The only thing that will save CFB will be a salary cap and contracts. Make a deal with the NFL to make CFB like Canadian Jr Hockey to the NFL. All contracts 1-3 years Players can be traded if college still has athlete under contract Player can jump if they are a "FA" Bonuses for playing in...

Yeah his 3 cone and vertical are pretty good which makes sense with what he is actually good at which is a quick shake and a move. The vert will help him also. I'm guess he goes in the 7th.

Bill's defenses have been fairly good despite lack of talent and an offense that gives them any sort of rest

Jerry probably isn't too cool/happy with BB considering how his alma mater (Arkansas) feels about him. So doubt we are getting too many Jerry Bucks. Though love us getting back into Texas.

Deon could do far worse at OC and could use the discipline and accountability that EB provides. Could also be a coach in waiting thing as we know Deon isn't going to be there after his kids leave.

He might be better suited for college. By all accounts he is kind of a hard @$$ who also wants to throw every down. Both things are more palatable at the collegiate level.

Not only from Buffalo, he has brought most of his staff all the way through from UW-Whitewater. That staff is a well oiled machine that knows how to coach complementary football.

I truly don't want it to happen, but if football starts to separate and forms their own leagues I think this will be the inevitable end unless the NFL decides to kill it instead of embracing it.

Will that still be true when/if football does their own thing? It's entirely possible once football goes and does it's own thing they are just one small step away from dissociating from schools and just being minor league football.

I just can't imagine FBS leagues, conferences, or teams will be altruistic to help support other sports when they could eat the whole pie themselves. For it to work, schools would basically have to charge teams rent for facilities or something to make sure the revenue gets to other sports. Then...
