    BJ McKie

    If the team wins, people are going to get excited about the program. People aren’t going to back a loser, even if BJ is the coach. Guy gets two or three years to learn on the job and is either getting extended or fired. BJ wasn’t on anyone’s radar as a head coach until about two weeks ago. He...

    BJ McKie

    Of course he’s not on anyone else’s list. If BJ sticks with Forbes and they have success at Wake, then maybe two, three, four years from now he could be in the conversation for a good mid-major head job. It’s nice that Carolina gave him an interview, in the middle of the Miller fiasco, to give...

    BJ McKie

    BJ isn’t at all qualified for this position. He languished at Charleston Southern for a long time, and it didn’t seem as if he had aspirations beyond that. Getting hooked up with Steve Forbes has been important, and Steve obviously thought enough of him to bring BJ from East Tennessee State to...

    Big Win For MBB: Now What?

    This is a bad team that beats other bad teams. The SEC wins are Vandy twice, UGA twice, Ole Miss, and A&M. When they come up against quality opposition in the league they are easily dispatched. This program is lifeless.

    Future of the SEC and ESPN

    ESPN still makes way more money from cable subscribers in total and on a per household basis when compared to ESPN+. And they can still double-up because there are those who have ESPN through cable and also pay for ESPN+ to get access to content exclusive to that platform. Overall, as more...

    Frank I thought you said....

    Teams like Virginia or Wisconsin under Bo Ryan were successful because of efficiency. They didn’t turn the ball over and they didn’t foul. They played slow and didn’t always get great shots, but what they didn’t do is throw away possessions or give their opponents free throws. Other coaches...

    Frank I thought you said....

    This program is among the worst coached in college basketball and has been for a few years now. Forget any concerns about recruiting and player development, those are secondary to this staff’s complete inability to get this team to play coherent basketball game in and game out. They are among...

    Just for kicks because I have absolutely no idea how the formula works. This morning we are sitting at the 20th right class where would that Ranking

    Rankings have always been a snapshot of incoming talent, and their individual and collective ability to be productive during their college careers. They’ve never tried to account for roster management and it would be far too hard to do so. The real issue seems to be that the rankings devalue...

    The Three Backs We Don’t Know

    Lloyd is really stiff in the hips and labored in his cuts. He’s a one cut, down hill guy who needs to improve his decision making and explosiveness. He’s a similar runner to Harris, but lacks Harris’ burst at the hole and physicality at the point of attack. He definitely did not look like a...

    Out of the top 20....

    Beamer’s connected and a strong recruiter in his own right, but he’s not the sort of big name coach that can go toe to toe on a big time recruit and win. Muschamp was closer to being that guy, particularly on the defensive side of the ball as someone who was very successful as a coordinator and...

    Beamer's recruiting is killing the haters here....

    Also a lot of people in the fan base who want to spike the football and do a dance at the 5 yard line and then are surprised when the other team runs in back for a touchdown.

    Beamer's recruiting is killing the haters here....

    Going out of state to land some very solid players is impressive. Still, he’s only bringing in 1 consensus top 200 player at this point. The portal can change things and there is still time to make a splash or two, but going to need more top tier guys to win in the SEC— particularly elite...

    Mike Leach talking my language

    And college football is an internship. Might bruise these coaches’ massive egos, but a player with designs on being a top 150 pick, and starting their professional careers, aren’t going to be stressing about ending their internship a little early. Especially since their next employer doesn’t...

    Mike Leach talking my language

    Fans have the wrong mindset about these lower tiered bowls. They aren’t so much a culmination of the current season, but rather a glorified exhibition in preparation for the season to come. And other than the playoff, and a few select other bowls, they are all just lower tiered bowls. If a...

    A 24 point loss to Coastal???

    Will have to wait for the season to play out, but it’s pretty high up there as an embarrassing and unexpected loss given that it finished as a blow-out. Coastal is not expected to be good against their schedule. The only oddity is that it happened in Coastal’s gym. Typically these out of left...

    A 24 point loss to Coastal???

    This was typical, stubborn Frank at his worst. College basketball is as much about energy and effort, but sometimes your guys just don’t have it. But you can still win. They couldn’t keep up with the cutters and movement, guys where confused. Just play zone. Fold into your basic zone concept...

    PLease Tell Me We are Currently Searching for an OC and OLine Coach with other Programs Currently Making Changes.

    South Carolina has had one of the worst offenses in college football for three years in a row now. On the one hand you could simply say this was the most likely outcome and give your offensive coaches a pass this year. On the other hand, you could easily say a major overhaul is required just...

    Frank keeps calling for something he’s calling 4 across, but it’s not the typical press breaker or the 4-5 high low. Best I can tell it’s just everyone standing around.
