Recall EP Maniac....

Think that was the name. Oh my

A Hicks put on IR today. Big, big loss

Fire Kirby Smart ? His team lost today to a 20 pt dog....at home no less. I'm sure Georgia fans are saying some of this but it sets the program back YEARS...unless one has someone one who can come in win em all. Doesn't happen

and...... Wisky seems to be pretty good

Can’t believe Illinois is within 3. Looked liked it was going to be a 50 blowout early. I am Not normally a "fire the coach!" single game , knee j**k reaction type of guy, but if Illinois comes back from 28-0 to win this game then Harbaugh should be the "former Michigan head coach" when the plane t...

Tough to compete in the East

Umps zone is flavor of the month. Super inconsistent

Somewhat agree but many of the bullpen walks were, walks. Can't do that. 2 to 1 game took 4hours. Brutal. Just brutal

Boy Redbird, I don't know. Eli is not that much of an upgrade (a little I agree) and plus he would have to learn a whole new system...interesting thought but if the Bears did something like that, in my opinion the QB would have to be a better QB than Eli at this stage... I agree it is tricky. My th...

I wasn't able to attend the Washington-Belleville (West) game the other night. Sounds like quite the game/finish. Can someone who was at game, fill me/us in how a team who could not score a point in 6 quarters(shutout against Sycamore game 1), somehow score 30+ in next 2? What the heck did they do d...

Well one QB today who did worse than Trubisky was Jameis Winston - 46 QB rating, 1 TD and 3 INT....Baker Mayfield wasn't so hot either - 64 QB rating, also 1 TD and 3 INT, which is funny because Mayfield had ripped Trubisky a few weeks ago for not being a good QB.... I may have been sleeping but I ...

The big unknown for all of us(the general fan who doesn't understand it) is salary cap. Trubisky is in 3rd year of rookie contract and will be looking to get "paid" after this year, if he even has a marginally good year. Can you hear what Dak Prescott is talking number wise?. Having said that, Mitch...

Why would you put up the bleachers in a manner you know sight lines will be compromised???? :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: Here's my take but probably better answered by someone better in the know...the designer or school rep. The press box is situated within the footprint of the x number of rows of n...

Panthers have a senior class that lost only one game in frosh-soph seasons (that game was against a JV squad that had sr.’s playing for the other team). More talent there than what some remember. Lost a couple kids due to injury and relocation. They just had a ton of talent in the class above them ...

Impressive looking facility/complex I must say

Not a thing in paper about results. Anyone know how local teams did, especially Washington ?

Quite a bit of drainage work has been completed in addition to foundations. Curbs and storm inlets to catch water running off parking lot have been installed. Much needed

At the time of his hire, many thought Belien was an underwhelming hire. Just sayin... I thought it was a great hire at the time. He has shown in the college ranks that he could win. Going from WVU to Michigan was not a stretch at all. Now going from college to the pros is a stretch IMO. Chances of ...

People have selective memories when it comes to all of this and the "big schools" vs "small schools" thing. They see what they want to see and believe what they want to believe. What do *you* remember that would set the record straight? I am baffled by the comment too. I cited 2 examples where the ...

I don't post much on here but do follow the discussions. On the transfer topic, I get that the two transfers have to sit a year . Here's my question/issue: Recently, Georgia's backup stud freshman QB, transferred to OSU and was given a "waiver". The transfer was apparently due to unhappiness with pl...

I realize the injury to the big kid had a negative effect, but it's a head scratcher as to the so-so season with so many returnees. I guess that's high school basketball. Not the 1st time it happened, nor will it be the last.

I may be the only one but I am

Just saw on school's Facebook page that Coach Brown is taking extended leave of absence.Prayers.

Obviously a long year for Panthers with C Brown's illness and several key returning players electing not to play. Pretty hard for physically inferior freshmen and sophs to compete at the varsity level. Still scratching my head how they were able to beat the Potters the other night. Kudos to Morton f...

As a side bar, Jeff Thomas from ESL who apparently was going to transfer from Miami to the Illini, has had a change of heart and is staying at the U. Must have liked the coaching change
