Should North Carolina reach the Playoff, Fedora would more than likely expect Littrell to stay on board through the end of the Heels’ run.

Does anyone know the line on this game and what are the chances that UNC could vault to a playoff spot if they beat Clemson?  Yikes!  Should we be pulling for Clemson?

Clemson is a 5 to 6-point favorite.

For all your oddsmaking needs, I advise vegasinsider.com.  It has six individual Vegas sportsbooks plus consensus along with nine offshore online sportsbooks.  

Not that I would ever use such information for illegal wagering purposes.  No.  Really.  In the 22 years since I made my first legal sports bet, I have never cashed a winning ticket.  Not...one...time.  I NEVER bet on sports.  Like.  Ever.  I suck at it.

Lot of people are gonna have to lose, AND UNC win for them to get in. Clemson is favored and rightly so, but it's unlikely they'll make it even if they do win.

I believe it's like a Herman situation last year.the deal is done rv and president are trying to be respectful to UNC before their biggest football game in the history of the school. And prolly agree to announce anything until the game has started. If they make playoffs fedora will have enough time to get somebody else ready to call plays or himself. 

Of course UNC is best known for their BB teams but they have had some pretty good football teams as well. They had a long run beginning about 1970 and ending in the mid-80's where they were ranked in the top 20 about every year, including some number 3 rankings if I recall correctly.

One would hope if we are waiting that something is in place behind the scene (hoping the Prez is involved).

Don't worry RV has got this covered.  I am sure RV played Littrell's agent from IMG like a rented fiddle.

I don't find it scary, I find it exciting. As long as you can secure a good architect, even if you have to wait for him to put the final touches on another house, you are in good shape. You may lose your place in line for site prep, have to wait longer to get materials, have to reschedule your subs, and run into other delays in the short run. In the long run, your good architect is going to see that your contractor builds a damn fine house.

UNC would need to win, Stanford would probably need to lose, and the selectors would need to pick them over Ohio State.  UNC's weak schedule is really working against them.  So a UNC blowout is probably required.  If Alabama were to lose it would really help them out.

What happened to Willie from Georgia Southern? I don't see his name up for consideration for other jobs?

He had interest for the Iowa St job, but then nothing. 

Last time I talked to a Georgia Southern writer he said Willie may wait till next year. KST could open next year and that would be perfect. What if Air Force or Navy opens up? He'd be a perfect candidate there. 

Id watch Tulane as a possibility for this year.

I just hope we gave him the full court press.  If President Smartresk whispered sweet nothings in his ear and he just didn't bite, I could live with that.  If we didn't...

As much as I am on board for a Littrell hire I would be ecstatic to get Willie Fritz here.  Forget riding the hype train, I would be shoveling coal into the boiler as fast as possible.

Thoughts on Iowa?

I'm glad you asked

I think the scarier part of this is that we are all assuming it is a foregone conclusion that Littrell will be the coach in less than a week, when in all reality there's a very real possibility we get a Bruce Chambers type hire

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      NIL was a horrible idea that continues to destroy competition in sports I don't see how anyone blames this mess on the athletes. Sure they are going to do what is best for them, perfectly understandable. The NCAA should fight NIL, but apparently the leadership is a lot more interested in protecting the status quo and players than to listening to the fans.

      Vito kicking UNT in the nuts again

      I don’t believe Vito hates UNT. Why should he sugar-coat the truth in his articles? Just win will help. I bet Vito hates participation trophies. Good job Brett!

      Vito kicking UNT in the nuts again

      Vito is lost in sports writer hell. He lives by the standard that it is the job of sport writer to be neutral. I imagine he is as tired of covering NT as a lot of NT fans are tired of his coverage. He is lucky in a way that the DRC is still one of the few newspapers that still exist. He has won a lot of awards, not only because he is a competent writer; but there is little competition.

      2025 Projected Depth Chart

      I know this is still subject to change, but with a lot of transfers signed I figure we have enough to get a pretty good idea on what our depth chart will look like next year. This includes all scholarship players and walkons who are in the depth chart. Did my best guess based on Sam Houston’s positions listed on their defensive depth chart (12 spots based on the packages) and where our guys were listed, as well as their guys who we are bringing over. Took some best guesses with guys who weren’t in the two deep/newcomers. Save your comments about how the transfer portal sucks and this could change so much between now, etc. That was always the case this many months out, but we have a pretty good idea based on the guys who actually play or we are bringing in. The bottom of the depth chart guys leaving is expected but doesn’t really change things. Asterisk indicates newcomer: Z - JR Landon Sides RS FR Kyle Koch RS FR Mason Ferguson *FR Tyler Smith Y - SO Miles Coleman X - *SR Cameron Dorner RS FR Baron Tipton H - SO Wyatt Young JR Dalton Carnes LT - *RS SR Jimto Obidegwu RS SO Keon Johnson RS FR Christian Pettway FR Jordan Reasonover LG - SO Braydon Nelson RS FR Paul Gurrola C - RS SR Gabe Blair RS FR Amarion Berry RG - RS JR Johnny Dickson RS SO Julio Madero RS FR Matthew Reed RT - RS SR Larry Moore RS SO Desmond Magiya RS SO Isaac Sohn *FR Roberto Rodriguez TE - SO Brandon Young *SR Tre Williams RS SR Xzavior Kautai *RS SO Connor Vaughn RS FR Victor Aderungboye QB - *SR Reese Poffenbarger RS FR Drew Mestemaker RS FR Cash McCollum *FR Chris Jimerson RB - SR Damashja Harris *JR Jayden Becks RS SO Makenzie McGill SO Kiefer Sibley JR Zach Evans RS FR Ashton Gray *FR Caleb Hawkins Defense DE - SR Breylon Charles *RS SO Demetrie Morgan *RS FR Josh Pierce NT - *JR Quincy Wright SO Jayden Williams SR VJ Bronson DT - *RS SR Richard Outland RS SR Fehi Vailea RS FR Jaedon Langley JACK - *SR Briceon Hayes RS FR Zhaiylen Scott *RS FR Will Smith *FR Brayden Knox SLB - RS JR Ethan Wesloski RS SR Chavez Brown *RS SO S’maje Burrell MLB - *SR Trey Fields RS SO JJ Jean-Louis WLB - SR Shane Whitter SO Kabriel Anderson-Dale FS - *SR DJ Warnell Jr JR BJ Allen RS FR Chris Gant SS - JR Evan Jackson SO Quinton Hammonds RS FR Jaydon Smith RS SR Isheem Young NB - *RS SR Da’Veawn Armstead RS SO Taylor Starling RCB - *RS SR David Fisher RS SO Kollin Lewis RS FR Gabe Stroud LCB - RS SO Brian Nelson JR X’Avion Brice K - RS SO Kali Nguma JR Blake Ford RS FR Miguel Arenas P - SR Sawyer Evans SR Seth Ford
