  1. Someone the music industry is trying to push on the public that nobody is willing to admit that they don't like, like Jellyroll and Bebe Rexha (who got booed at the Thanksgiving game in Detroit last year).
  2. And another HS QB, T.J. Edwards. The odd thing is that the LBs have looked the worst and Tressel is the ILB coach.
  3. Not hearing anything from any credible sources at this point about OC candidates. There has been lots of speculation about Gino Guidugli, the QB coach at ND who was Cincinnati's OC in 2022. The interesting thing about him is that Notre Dame's QB room is loaded. The backup this year has been Steve Angeli, but they also have CJ Carr, Kenny Minchey, and Tyler Buchner (who was their starting QB as a soph in 2022, but then got hurt and is backup WR/special teams this year). Carr had some interest in WI, and if he's stuck behind Angeli and Minchey maybe he might come with Guidugli. Or, maybe Buchner wants one last shot at QB for his last season of eligibility.
  4. They're on their 4th string QB I believe, maybe 5th string. Rising, Huard, and Wilson are injured.
  5. I believe they are on their 4th OL coach in four years. When every year they are told to do something different, it's somewhat understandable. They also only have 14 scholarship OL, with five of them true freshmen and at least one of the 9 non-true-freshment out for the season. Not a whole lot to choose from as far as their starting five.
  6. Johnsonville has one of those. Do they sponsor UW athletics?
  7. No, that's actually what happened with Guerendo.
  8. Three Brewers getting votes, two in the top 10.
  9. Some chatter about Carter Smith trending to UW today... fingers crossed.
  10. He's been injured most of the time. He was injured last year, and was listed as "Out" on the injury report the last couple of weeks. He may have gotten the Isaac Guerendo treatment and was told that if you're not available, you're of no use.
  11. Wisconsin flipped 4-star DE Jalen Williams from Michigan. Allegedly, Williams is close with QB Carter Smith, the Michigan de-commit who was also on an official at the Oregon game with Williams. Williams had been connected with UW before when Scruggs was the DL coach. Scruggs went to Michigan, but then resigned after getting arrested.
  12. Yeah, they only lost by 13 at Creighton who is ranked #15 now. Shot 40% from 3 against them and had 12 steals. Abdul Hakim had 26 and 11. Biggest difference is that they shot 82% from the FT line and 49% from the field against UW vs 60% and 43% vs Creighton. Nobody is going to want to see them in March.
  13. Much like the Chryst firing, it was as much about interpersonal skills and decision-making as it was on-field performance. It started with the Bicknell fiasco last year and bringing in an OL coach who clearly was not a good fit from the get-go. Add that to Braelon Allen's comments about lack of accountability, rumors of not getting along with other coaches, and philosophical differences with Fickell about the run game, and you have Longo just not being a good fit. The execution and improvement weren't enough to overcome those things. Chryst was fired more for half-arsing or just not doing parts of his job, coupled with bad decisions about OC hiring and recruiting, than he was for his record.
  14. Yeah, this has been brewing for some time. I think it's more about getting a head start on finding the right guy and "advertising the opening" than anything that happened last night. I don't think that anybody gets fired for scoring only 13 points against the #1 team in the nation with their backup QB.
  15. A few weeks ago Braelon Allen made some cryptic comments alluding to some type of dysfunction there and people not being held accountable. Methinks that and this are not unrelated.
  16. I don't think it was a lineman's gaffe. It looked to me like they called a QB draw; Locke tucked it and ran fairly quickly, but when the run wasn't there and he saw the open receiver he improvised. There were two OL downfield, strongly suggesting that they were the two who were instructed in the play call to wait 2 seconds, then charge downfield.
  17. So were all of the other receivers. Less than 1:30 remaining, at your own 25 yard line, in the pocket so can't throw it away without it being at a receiver or it's intentional grounding, and absolutely can't take a sack or a gain of little to no yardage and have the clock keep running. He tried to make a play with a receiver who was covered 1:1 and hope that the receiver can make a contested catch or draw pass interference. Not many options there. The defense defended it well and made two good plays, one by the DL to time his jump and get his hand up in the right spot, one by the other DL to turn around and find the ball.
  18. Oregon is 2nd in the nation in passes tipped/batted down at the LOS. They're coached very well to get their hands up at the right time.
  19. Tie game, 4th quarter, and if you're an official you need to keep the flag in your pocket unless it is an obvious penalty. No place for that call there. None.
  20. I think they had called a QB draw, which is why the OL were downfield.
  21. Maybe their toughest challenge yet, but Oregon is only 56th in the nation in rushing yards per game. UW is averaging more rushing yards per game than Oregon. Oregon is 15th in the nation is passing yards per game, but UW is 5th in the nation in passing defense yards per game. Arguably their weakness is also UW's weakness, and their strength is UW's strength. Likely a repeat of Penn State and Alabama where they hang for 3 quarters, but it's about as favorable of a matchup as they can get for playing against the #1 team in the country.
  22. Colorado has played one ranked team so far and lost at home. They also lost to Nebraska, who is 5-4. Strength of schedule is 56th in the nation. Utah today was playing their 3rd or 4th string QB. Give UW their schedule this year and a healthy Van Dyke and they'd be at least 7-2 if not better. I hope Sanders gets hired away by either Florida State or the Cowboys.
  23. Jets' kicker is injured. Jets have a kicker on their practice squad who they elevated last week, but didn't add to the active roster this week. KC signs Jets' kicker from the practice squad to their active roster. Jets need another kicker, signing Anders Carlson, their 4th different kicker in 4 weeks.
  24. Guys his size at the college level are a dime a dozen. And I don't know if he has the straight-line speed; when they did the radar gun speed competition I don't recall seeing him in the top 5 in mph if even the top 10. Add that to all the drops on tape that he has and he might need to run a sub-4.40 to get a look. He'll certainly need to run a sub-6.8 on the 3-cone. To his credit, he's also been playing gunner on special teams - a 5th/6th WR in the NFL will need to play special teams, but I don't know if that's helping or hurting him and physically wearing him down. But overall, I see him as an UDFA/practice squad type at best.
  25. Still can't believe he wasn't drafted that year. Fun fact - he played over 1,600 offensive snaps in the NFL and was never called for holding.
