Assistant Regional Manager

We are going to look back in a few years and realize this did not incentivize teams to schedule tougher and might end up having the opposite impact. Teams that were normally 8-4/7-5 types are going to attempt to schedule their way into the playoffs by playing no one in non-conference and hope to be ranked 22nd at the end of the year.

I love AI graphics titled “commitments” that include a bunch of guys who were never committed.

Pretty hard to fake culture your way to 39-8 the last 4 years. You seem to be mixing up the terms culture and discipline. Miami played for the national title last year ranking 113th in penalties. Was their culture bad or did they just struggle with discipline? Culture is fighting down 20 points against Ohio State in the 4th quarter. Discipline is not blocking someone in the back when the opportunity presents itself.

Normally if I’m upset about something it would mean more if someone called me personally than apologized in a newsletter.

Yeah that is including FCS games because it has Tennessee as a top 40 offense and if you remove the Furman game, their offense drops below Texas.

LSU and Ohio State aren’t even top 20. https://www.espn.com/college-football/fpi/_/view/resume/sort/resume.avgsosrank/dir/asc Also, where are you getting your stats from because your numbers do not match up at all? Are you using a site that includes FCS games? https://www.teamrankings.com/college-football/stat/yards-per-game

The last thing Arch needed was this nonsense on top of the pressure he already faces every damn day. I hope it doesn't impact him even a smidge.

To be clear, I'm not saying OTF shouldn't have mentioned it. I would have just had Arch call Holly personally to apologize and let the 24-hour news cycle blow over. We are now at the beginning of the cycle again because he released a statement.

Giving this more oxygen is not the route I would have taken

Someone needs to find his commitment thread because I have a feeling there are a lot of bad takes in there.

HAHAHAHA I promise we won’t see @TexasLonghorns on the boards this week. Only shows up when there is bad days. Hook em fellas.

Texas 28 Ohio State 27 Who you got @TexasLonghorns?

It's the closest comp because it's the only comp lol. That was my whole point. Anyways. Hope you are wrong.

If you have to go back 20 years to find another example, that kind of proves my point about the sample size you are working with.

What games at home have we lost against traditional powers other than Georgia? Alabama in '22 when we were 3 touchdown underdogs?
