Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Captain Mitch]

Didn’t the media feed into the Grumors? I thought I remember them saying it was likely. That’s what makes me cautious with all the Freeze talk

Lindsey doesn’t garner that kind of attention and riddle usage tho. Come on man. Unless AV doesn’t know who it is... just that he’s been chosen. I don’t know.

I get what you are saying, I think the PR comment was a subtle hint too, but he was not at all definitive on who it was.

I drove by this location this morning. We good.

My curiosity is piqued by the "Ice Cream Fantasies". What could they be?

Brent never did.

If money wasn’t an object for myself then I’d give saban a couple mil to go to Green Bay. Back to reality tho

According to Pete Thamel, 8 game playoff could be done as early as 2020. Because this year there were too many deserving teams that didn't get in.

No link, because it's written by Pete Thamel.

I do hope it goes to eight and stays there. I think that would be a lot of fun to watch. Some good upsets would liven up the playoffs..like this year it would be awesome to see UCF knock Notre Shames gutless arse out early.

I actually enjoy listening to Hyams. He’s a nice guy and does a good job talking about games and stuff. He just needs to stick more with opinions then trying to be a reporter.

My biggest issue with him is that he is very quick to bring bad news. Like his tweet about the BOT members who said they would never accept Freeze. He usually can barely contain his excitement when it's bad news for Tennessee.

Lindsey is rumored to have interviewed with Les Miles according to my BIL.

Brent never did.

Wasn't he at the airport waiting for Gruden to get off a plane? Lol

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Don't like this idea....when a team knows they can lose 2 games and still get in I think it takes out the fun in College Football where every week seems to matter

I love the idea..who cares about two good two loss teams getting in. It matters who is lefy at the end. You still have to have a great season and a good team to make it in.

I, um, wouldn't, um know.

UCF would get raced in a game that counted. I want fewer playoff teams because the regular season is fun and important. This could take away from the gravity of the conference CG. Frankly it already did last year.

 

[DD4ME]

Let's do this already.

PS I don't understand why some gifs embed as links instead

 

[butchna]

The pundits will love when an eight team playoff results in three SEC schools making it every year.

As long as the UCF of the season makes it...all’s good. Annoying listening to the bisching

Or put emphasis on it if you had a guaranteed spot to all conference champs with a remainder of 3 wild card spots.

 

[wrangler]

I don't see the need for a bigger playoff. What we have is the same thing the BCS tried for -- to find the best team. As long as the best team (and probably the second best) is in the playoff, objective achieved.

If I remember correctly, nobody nearly as credible as Low said anything remotely positive towards Gruden coming here.

UGA doesn’t win that game last season and they don’t make the playoffs and Ohio State does. Last year wasn’t a good example against it.

There ya go. Then we need to do away with divisions. Go BigXII method and top two conference records.

As long... Like to be a Buckeyes fan the last two seasons?

No one legitimate.

Great post is great.

Blah blah blah...I'm old school about a lot of stuff, but this isn't one of them...Playoffs in any sport are exciting, and the best time of the year. I think it will be great fun to watch. Hell you still have to have a great season with at most two losses..it isn't like regular season will not matter any more...If anything it will make some later regular season games more exciting because there is something still on the line.

Checked sympathy meter, needle has not moved.
