Kofi would manhandle Adama. He is more physically dominant and skilled. I do think Adama works harder whereas it looks like Kofi turns his efforts on and off and can look pretty pedestrian from what I've seen. Consistent hard work matters.

Hurley needs to learn some self-control. Loved how Kamani comported himself right down to the wire. The line between extreme passion and outright stupidity is pretty thin and one needs to know when the line is crossed. Hurley has managed to develop a counterproductive relationship with the...

he just needs to limit his fakes and pivots and either go up strong or kick out faster. He gets tied up and loses the ball holding it too long. He's too big and strong not to go up hard, use his body as a shield and finish.

Dan is a mercurial guy who gets himself out of control and emotions take over. Passion is an excuse for a lack of control. Passion means dedication to doing everything you can to achieve your objectives. The fact that he intensely fears the feeling of losing, says a lot. It also explains why...

Ten tears running: It can't get worse (Nov). This is the year. I swear. I can feel it. (Feb). O.k., now it cant get any worse (Nov.) But, this year is different. I can feel it.

Ill give Cole a pass since he's saved our bacon a lot more than he's fried it. The guy can't shoulder the entire load every game. What I do see is guys that are tired and getting run into the ground.

Excellent post. Danny needs to get a strategy fast and it starts with transition basketball. We simply cannot produce in a set offense with poor outside shooting, and minimal ball and player rotation. We need to get numbers and press up the floor. The extended man to man D has an innate...

Bringing some real wood. Huge pick-up.

These cartel arrangements only last for so long before they fall apart. It's hard to predict when and how, but the pigs will take it one step too far and start destroying the very thing that makes CFB worth following. How long before some NIL deal is implicated in a sports betting scheme...

Easy move. Collect $1M running a football day camp for a year. Play with some weights, run some drills, hit some dummies, and watch film.

Seems like mostly high-level FCS players. Definitely need some P5 quality players out of the portal to salt the team and make major improvements. Mora cant get there from here with what he has.

Not pleased with this maneuver at all based solely on his success with our own D. It is not good and he owns that. Even if you think it has marginally improved from historically bad levels under Crocker, it's hard to conclude the guy with nearly the worst defense in FBS is the best among all...

Every game is a must-win if you have a winning mindset. But, Saint Bonnie is important from a psychological standpoint.

10 miles from New Haven to LI across the water. The 2 Miles or so from LI to NJ. Its really not that technically difficult. Expensive but it would be repaid with tolls. If you're a trucker there are enormous economic savings in fuel and road time. Probably worth $80 each way for a truck.

Starting to see the same Hurley weaknesses pop out. Great recruiter, great motivator, but seems to struggle with player management, game adjustments, and closeouts. Hope he starts figuring it out.
