The Sicatoka

@Wilbur defends goalies here.

Third clown goal our forwards didn’t get back. They made up for it with a tying goal and one made the OT play.

Helmet car maintenance.

When Dalton Andrew figures it out, and cleans up his stride just a little, oh my. He’s not far from being flat scary to play against.

We now know why Berry didn’t star in Saturday Night Fever … Is this his answer to the griddy?

Teams mimic coaches. Berry showed some emotion. Team responded.

Ice had its effect.

Study this and get back to me. It is the statistical basis of PWR. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley–Terry_model

Someone tell the boys it’s a seven pm start …

Scholarships are annual not four years.

Long snappers are like hockey defensemen: it’s better to not notice them.

The contract extension maintains the $175,000 base salary but includes an annual $75,000 raise from Idaho's broadcast partner, Learfield. With incentives, the new maximum is $462,000.

@gfhockey is crippled without a tail number to reference.

Does the OC pick other offensive coaches or does the HC? Collaboration? With approval?

Got the top of that guess list. And with the announced change to 4-2-5 defense the other end of my guess list seems predestined.

Scrapping a defense designed to stop an offense nobody runs. Whodathunkit.

Shamelessly stolen from other forum talking about FCS -> FBS schools: Below is the attendance (2021 or more recent) of all the schools that have moved up. Note that only 3 are smaller than NDSU. 2001 South Florida 49,766 2002 Connecticut 27,175 2002 Troy State 6,000 (on campus only) 2006 Florida Atlantic 36,703 2006 Florida International 55,687 2009 Western Kentucky 16,762 2012 Texas-San Antonio 34,393 2012 Massachusetts 30,285 2012 South Alabama 13,463 2012 Texas State 38,171 2013 Georgia State 50,521 2014 Appalachian State 21,253 2014 Old Dominion 23,494 2014 Georgia Southern 26,106 2015 Charlotte 29,551 2017 Coastal Carolina 10,484 2018 Liberty 15,800 (on campus only) 2023 James Madison 22,224 2023 Jacksonville St. 9,540 2023 Sam Houston St. 21,480 2024 Kennesaw St. 45,152 2025 Missouri State 23,418 2025 Delaware 24,221 The demographics are even more stark: if we make Missouri an honorary Southern state by virtue of membership in the SEC, then 20 out of 23 schools that moved up from FCS since the turn of the century are in Southern states, all of which are in the top half of states for population with the exception of Kentucky (who just missed it as ranked #26 but will probably move into the top half past Louisiana by the next census). 14 out of the 23 came from just the mega-growth states of Texas, Florida, North Carolina, Georgia or Virginia. Meanwhile, all 3 of the Northern move-ups were flagship schools. Massachusetts is a massive population state. Connecticut arguably has the largest college sports fan base in the NYC market (albeit from basketball) and is directly in the NYC-to-Boston population corridor. Delaware is located directly in the #4 largest TV market of Philadelphia. The upshot: all 23 of the FCS call-ups this century are in existing large population states and/or markets. It’s pretty stark.

It's the 2020s. Add "hype man" to list of required HC skills.

Then you won’t be looking at it. 🤣

Anyone know how to make my eyes stop bleeding?

My guess from most to least likely to be retained: OC, OL, RB, Dosch, STC, (other), DC.

A document only a lawyer could love.

How do you share revenues when most schools are heavily self-subsidized? Is that subject to sharing?

Does the 105 cap apply to FCS? I get conflicting answers.
