they were definitely darker until sometime in mid 80's. I will find a recent pic of an old jersey and one from the 90s to post here

The time change/jet lag has got to be awful for athletes. I have been to Beijing about a dozen times and just functioning in a meeting can be rough at times. It really comes and goes but for me the first couple of days were the worst. I wonder if Sanderson tried to adjust his sleep/wake times to Beijing time while in LA.

Watching on USA network. Too bad you can’t see the USA numbers from any distance. White numbers on white Jersey. Canada’s not much better. Black on red

Does anyone know if Otis landed anywhere? I haven't seen anything on him.

Did Dane Montgomery get any shifts last night?

This former walk-on contributes to my alma mater. Based on the guys I played with the walk-ons were more likely to be local players vs. the scholarship recruits. That often leads to a closer connection to the university.

I don't remember the exact numbers but I read during the CInci-Bama game that Bama had 74 four or five star recruits on their roster. Cinci had 7. That's a big disparity but I'm guessing there aren't many teams in G5 that even have 7.

I met with him a few times when he was with the School of Engineering. Very impressive person.

Gotta find a goalie we can trust.

Montana St. QB is pretty good.

That makes sense. I was wondering if he saw himself in the big 10 or something

Not looking to fire up Otis bashing but does anybody know where he saw himself going with entering the tranfer portal?

Thanks for what you've done tracking the recruiting on the Wiki page. I must be a ton of work but we all appreciated it.

I caught the end of that one also. Crazy finish.

ETSU hangs on to win

Kinnesaw St up 14 on ETSU with under 2 minutes left. ETSU scored TD, got onside kick, scored TD and got 2 pt conversion to take 32-31 lead with :35 left. This would be a bad loss

I see that SCSU is having some success this year. Anybody know anything about their coach?

I meant to put 'sick' in quotes but missed it.

I'm guessing part of it is him being upset cuz he wasn't allowed to travel and play after being sick all week and not able to practice.

Sitting out 1 year as a transfer had a lot of value. Players didn't move around on a whim. It had to be worth it to sit a year.

In the old days there were 1 on 1 meetings with every player and the head coach after the season.

PWO commit Anthony Moe-Tucker is on TV now in MN HS championship game. Hutchinson putting the hurt on his team right now but he's had a nice run and a big stick on D

I played for Pat. We had decent years for his first few years but then it fell apart. We still had some of Murph's players for a time and Pat did get some good players too but he lost the team my last 2 years and they didn't respect him. Football is really hard when your best players basically roll their eyes after the coach's speech that's meant to fire the team up. Pat was young and micromanaged the program and all of his assistants. It was just too much and every assistant coach and athletic trainer spot turned over in the 4 years I was there. Who they recruited had to be Pat's idea. One former assistant told me this story - if they liked a player they'd show him the film but claim they were interested in a different player. They'd say - we really like #10 but check out #33 also. We think #10 can be a stud but #33 is kind of so-so. Pat would say - what do you mean? #33 is the guy we want and let's go after him. If they started with - we think we should recruit #33, he wasn't interested. That being said - making the playoffs was much harder then. Only 8 teams made it nationally. we were 7-3 and 8-3 two of those years and would have made the playoffs if the took the number of teams they take now.

One thing we've learned on this thread is that the Hindsight Hawks would have probably been undefeated this year.

Is Lotysz being counted on for one of those spots? I believe he was the projected starter at center before getting hurt
