For anyone who wants to reminisce about the "good" old days

I still remember that horrible game against Kent State in 2015. Peak Matt Limegrover RUTM offense on display. It was a win only in the most technical sense of the word.

Probably shutting down the program tbh, hope we’ve got some alternates lined up

This thread at the beginning: This thread now:

Top tier response. Follow up question: if you’re alive, do you plan on standing during the game?

It’s actually both. If you watch the tape, you’ll notice that he was out of position more frequently and a couple of steps slower than in past years. Normally, that would have a bigger impact on a 4-2-5 team like ours. However, we got exceptional play from our secondary, including Williamson...

So, I really like using team efficiency to measure across years. It's a metric that takes into account overall contribution of the offensive unit to a team's scoring margin on a per-play basis. It down-weights "garbage time" scores and increases weighting for strength of schedule. It is a 0-100...

Godwin’s Law in full effect

I really think some folks in our fanbase need to experience what game day is like at helmet schools. If you think we’re overly disruptive re: standing & drinking, you’re in for a rude awakening...

Savages. Bring back the 18th Amendment!

LOL. Other than the fact that Fleck makes more now than Dantonio ever did, has a higher max bonus potential, a significantly higher assistant coach salary pool, and an AD with actual athletics experience, it seems like a great fit.

He definitely played slower and was increasingly out of position this year relative to last year. Got washed out on run plays more often by blockers (which didn’t happen as much last year), took poor angles, etc. I’ve been trying to find the actual game grades that have been put out by...

The toughest losses will be Winfield, Renner, and Williamson. Regarding our other starters: 1. Barber regressed this year. He was adequate, but I’m excited to see what Braelen Oliver can do in his place. 2. Martin was out for two of our biggest wins (PSU and Auburn). MSM filled in admirably...

Sawvel, Kill, and now Limey landing gigs. Did Claeys land somewhere?

I really wonder what could have been if we had been able to develop Carter as a pure LB. The EDGE role was him filling a need for this team, but man...

I guess this is what a balancing act looks like. Let's him inflate compensation and message some limited elevated responsibility while still making sure that the title reflects who the guy in control is. It was Sanford for offense with Simon getting the promotion, and now it looks like it's...

Uhhh, a PROMOTION for Wenger? Exactly how is this article defining success on special teams?

Off-topic, but I'm curious to see what this looks like for Coach Ciarocca next year at PSU. He never used the TEs in his offense (either at WMU or here), and they have Pat Freiermuth. Something's gotta give.

This, AND the fact that even if you were expecting a recruiting bump, it would be in the 2021 class. Most top recruits commit their junior year, so our success in 2020 wouldn't have really had an impact on our ability to secure them. Also, giving credit where credit is due, I would add...

Sorry, to be clear, in my model, it's still a 4 team playoff, not an 8+ team playoff. Home field advantage is just one way to reward being higher seeded in the semis. Why NOT have winter football in the north? It works just fine for the NFL when Lambeau is hosting playoff games.
