One thing that's interesting - Dillon Thieneman is the player who intercepted Drew at the end of the Oregon game. He ranked #1 for athleticism among safeties. Drew's throw could have been a little higher, but Thieneman made a heck of a play.

I will be interested to see if Grunkemeyer regresses due to the Franklin effect or if Franklin coaches him differently. I feel like the #1 QB thing was a problem - Franklin felt pressure not to mess it up and maybe put too much pressure on Drew as a result.

That seems fair. Some draft analysts have really turned on him. He should for sure be in the Top 5 of the QBs this year. I see Ben Roethlisberger and Josh Allen as comparables. He's probably a little smaller and niftier than Ben was, and not as good of a runner as Josh Allen. But he can make all...

I think the main issue is that he wasn't put in a position to succeed. I read an article in The Athletic about Mendoza. I did not realize that Cignetti's last 4 starting QBs at JMU were players of the year in their league. Kurtis Rourke, in his only year at IU, was the 2nd-team All Big Ten QB...

I don't know if he was exposed or not. He threw a pick against Oregon (but also had 2 4th quarter TDs to take the game to overtime), and he couldn't beat UCLA and Northwestern himself when the rest of the team and coaching staff seemed to not show up. He was still out there trying his best. He...

I doubt they will go to that length, but I actually think this is a more serious threat than when people talked about Michigan vacating wins. The legal impact of certain moves in court can have surprising implications. It isn't always about what normal people would think is fair or what makes...

I'd say 141 and Heavyweight are both "weak" spots on this team. Meaning I don't think we're likely to be contending for the championship at either weight. Davis wasn't really supposed to be wrestling this season. Give credit to Jesse Mendez - he's one of the best in the country. He will...

Half-time show aside, the game's pretty good if you like defensive struggles.

As a PSA to our TDS sufferers, Trump did NOT say to take a deep breath.

Anyone else rooting for the Seahawks just because you don't want the Patriots to pass the Steelers in Super Bowl wins?

Since he interviewed for the 49ers OC job last year, Campbell knew he was receiving NFL interest and likely has contingencies in place. I'm confident that he'll find someone capable as a replacement. Far more than I was in James Franklin. Franklin could not get that position right while here for...

I think that's the key thing. It sucks that he had to know he was probably leaving on Wednesday, but jobs with a team like the Packers don't come open that often, so I understand him taking it. It speaks well to the kind of coaches that Campbell's had as assistants that they are being hired for...

I didn't see it posted here, but the felony charges are already dropped by the prosecution. The charges came from SCPD, not the DA's office. Now that the DA's office has reviewed it, the most serious charges are already dropped, as I expected. Gavin hasn't been able to present a defense yet...

This should be a great match! Reminiscent of the 2018 #1 PSU vs. #2 OSU match at Rec Hall that Penn State won, 19-18. Penn State is putting its 84-match win streak on the line in what's likely to be its toughest test during that streak since the 19-13 win over Iowa on January 28, 2022. Based on...

I wonder if it was an injury to Davis or a quiet suspension. Good to see Desmond was ready to go.
