What about Barry Odom from UNLV or Justin Wilcox from Cal? Odom has SEC experience where, IMO, he was prematurely fired at Missouri. He's since had a great first year with UNLV. Wilcox knows the West and its recruiting well and, having hit his ceiling at a limited Cal program, will appreciate a new ...

I don’t at all believe Fisch and the NFL is realistic. Not because of Fisch but because, after all the flops from college, the NFL largely views the college-to-pro coaching pipeline as broken. Terrible experiences like Rhule w/ the Panthers, Urban Meyer w/ the Jaguars, Kiffin w/ the Raiders, Petrino...

"A California state committee passed a bill in a vote of 5-2 on Wednesday aimed at banning tackle football in youth sports organizations for kids under the age of 12." Banning football for under 12 will put California's prep talent behind the rest of the nation, even to the point of drying up an al...

The thing with Fisch is that it’s so well known he’d want the Florida job, would Washing hesitate? Knowing Fisch is gone as quick as Deboer if the Gators come calling?

True. But actually the Wolverines success this year was more about players staying this year after the TCU loss as opposed to a lot of transfers coming in a la Arizona. During the Championship Game broadcast, Michigan was noted for having 44 seniors on the roster. That's an entire 2-deep of Seniors...

So what does Entertainment have to do with Depression and Anxiety? A counselor once advised me to find more to do with my hands.

The Forest App. An app marketed more as a "focusing app" than for its time management functions which I like more.
