So, how long will it take to get a qb to commit and pull stuff off like that kid...  damn.  Talk about extending a play and making something happen.

Assuming the contract is signed sealed and delivered...   I hope UNC lays it on them and hangs half a hundred on them And blows them out!         Still fire rv

Heartbreaking busted call by the Zebras cost UNC a shot to tie and probably would have been an OT game. Feel bad for UNC.  Feel good for us with Littrell!

UNC had three problems in this game:  a really good Clemson opponent ... a horrible game by their quarterback ... and robbed from having a chance to tie by a horrible call by the official and the horrible replay rules which didn't allow it to be reviewed.

How can a play that important not be reviewable???

Bc it's a "judgement" call. But aren't all calls a judgement. Bunch of horse manure. It gives referees a free reign to make seesaw bs calls. Aka. The ACC was protecting their money maker. With no help in front of Carolina in the games today, if Clemson losses the ACC gets left out. If you don't think that kind of bs isn't discussed by money hungry ACC execs you are absolutely crazy. If you don't think that information doesn't leak down to officials you're crazier. With that kind of money on the line people will do anything. With the current poll format in place execs have even more say. Kirk Herbstreit all but said in his commentating that the committe might move Alabama to 1 and drop Clemson to 2 "for whatever reason." That reason is to separate OU and Alabama away from each other in the semi's and hope (manipulate) they both make it to thr final. Imagine the build up going into that championship game of two true college football blubloods. The tv ratings would be astronomical, as would the $. Money is ruining this game. <------ Reference: FIFA. Please don't act like these kind of things aren't happening. Believe that they are. 

The greed is real.

I was surprised at how Fedora seemed so resigned to the fact he was getting screwed.  You may be on to something.  "Let's keep it in the family."

Fedora reminds me of Clayton Williams' famous comment: "If rape is inevitable, just relax and enjoy it!"

It is hard to get too distraught when you just received a 7-year extension of your employment contract.

I thought I saw hatred in his eyes, but that he could see no useful outlet for it, and just told himself "carry on".

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I just hope Jared has been working the phones trying to gather up the money to get rid of this guy. We need to cut our losses before he tanks us like Mac did and we end up getting pummeled by some FCS program again.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      Regarding the guys with no FBS HC experience, I personally have no issue with that. If we pluck a HC from a lower level, it needs to be somebody with extensive HC experience. There's guy who spend almost 10 years as a lower level HC. Examples include Lance Leipold of Kansas who went 109-6 over 8 seasons at D3 Wisconsin-Whitewater before being hired at Buffalo. Bob Chesney of James Madison went 111-46 over the course for 14 seasons at various D2 and FCS schools. There's guys out there to be plucked. My choice is to promote from within with Cobbs. Cobbs may not work at HC and I know it's a huge leap in responsibility but you won't know unless you try and others haven't worked out. He's worked wonders at RB and he's been doing it for a while. I'm sure he's made connections over the course of his playing and coaching career and would surround himself with experienced winners. My biggest thing is he loves this school and would want to succeed for the love of the school and not just for his own career. I looked back at Boise State head coaches since 2001 and found every single BSU HC spent time coaching at BSU prior to becoming HC and a few played at BSU as well. Several were promoted to HC from within, some went and became coordinators elsewhere before returning as their HC, and only 2 had prior HC experience, Bryan Harsin and Dan Hawkins. Harsin actually left to become Texas's co-OC and then Arkansas State's HC for a 1 year before returning to BSU as their HC but he'd been a coordinator there prior and played at BSU. I believe he's currently on the market and only 48 if we wanted somebody with experience though poor recruiting was a complaint at Auburn. Boise State kind of debunks the whole "prior HC experience" requirement, though.

      Keebler has to go!

      Agreed. I would only do it again for a huge name that would excite the fan base, but make the contract heavily based on incentives over guaranteed money. For the Morris-type hires, three years with triggers to extend the contract automatically, like a conference championship buys the coach an extra year with a slight raise. Otherwise it is an annual discussion and negotiation.

      IF we have to keep Morris 🤢

      I would have already fired Morris but if he stays it needs to be with several conditions. 1) hand over play calling duties to an OC, either bringing in someone or elevating Davis or Cobbs to the position. (I think Davis already has the title but we know it is meaningless). 2) bring in a new ST coach 3) replace the strength and conditioning staff. Too many injuries this season and the team is gassed by the end of the game and getting steamrolled. 4) new DC needs to run a system that can stop the run and must be able to adapt throughout the season to account for opponents and personnel losses. And all of the above needs to be overseen by the AD’s office. And no contracts for more than one year. Obviously this means replacing most of the staff, which at its core means we should really fire Morris and bring in an experienced HC who already knows how to build a staff. But if we are being cheap, at least the assistants don’t require buy outs. I would also like to see the AD renegotiate Morris’ contract to reduce the base salary/buyout and increase the incentives for accomplishments, including bowl wins and championships.
