It's interesting to me that our transfer players are going to some pretty big-name schools, and yet we went 5-7. Hmmmmmmm...


Any of the more competent coaches in our conference could've pulled out at least seven or eight wins last year with our roster. I feel very strongly about that

Several would have won 9.. assuming they had a month before season to get their process going. Willingham, Sitake, Fritz all win 9 easily. Campbell and Dillingham probably win at least 8 as well.

If Dave had been coaching their team, they would have won 6 to 7 at absolute max.. probably less.

A salary cap is better for the Blue Bloods

Rip it off, and let the market decide

Actually a cap on NIL in addition to the 20.5 million from the school for athletes is necessary.

Guess there is some risk with some of these guys trying to hold out for a better offer

I beg to differ his in game and half time adjustments generally are pretty good.

We are just usually so far behind after a terrible 1st half.

Give him time to see what the offense is doing and he can scheme against it. He just can't start the game well.


5-7 proves he's incapable

I agree. He is a bad head coach. But he does make adjustments in hand and half time that are pretty good.

But that is not enough to overcome the rest of his shortcomings.

I've never seen Dave do an in-game adjustment except at halftime. It seems like he'd rather let the first half game plan run its course even if completely falling apart.

This isn't talked about enough, as it is better for the less wealthy programs if there is no cap on non-revenue share NIL. As an example, it is well known that Texas Tech pays a 30-40% premium for players in order to get them to Lubbock, and, if Tech was not able able to do that, it cannot sign those players and subsequently falls back into the abyss.

To rephrase, 2025 Texas Tech doesn't happen with caps on non-revenue share NIL.

Yeah, absolutely zero production from Hampton... His recruiting is odd as well. A bunch of D2 offers then, boom, Florida. Is DJ taking this guy everywhere he goes?

Are you telling me if you graduate and you have not used up your eligibility, you can just keep playing without going to school? For years? You don't have to be like working on a masters or something?

Probably enrolled in a Masters program, or was, where all he had to do was "research" towards a final paper.

I said in an earlier post, we are going to have career college football and basketball players.

Unless congress steps in with some kind of regulation, college football is the same as the NFL. The athletes are employees of the schools and as the employment agreement is mutually beneficial, the athletes can work the job.

I've said it over and over again. I think that ultimately most or even all of these programs are gonna have to become self sustaining, meaning they can pay their own athletes out of the program revenue. Some schools are going to have some donors here and there for a while that will give them a big boost, but by large this is gonna come down to running this thing like a business. That's also why the Utah private equity model is not crazy. University administrators don't know how to run businesses.

I'm assuming O-line. No way Lagway signed without BU giving some kind of assurance they would get an actual solid level lineman from the portal.

I read that he was a walk on at Florida. Hasn't played much, but I assume he and Lagway are buds.
