As it turns out, the game was over before it even started.

The game was over as soon as Blake Corum pulled up to the stadium like this.

I'm not saying it's the best ever, but when my boss smokes a pork shoulder and brings it in, he also brings in a custom blend of Sweet Baby Ray's, apple cider vinegar, and Kroger Private Selection reach Carolina reaper sauce and holy poo poo that poo poo slaps.

Cross posting from the NFCN thread, but I can only assume Harbaugh is doing this because he truly thinks he’ll be back in the NFL next year, or because he’s utterly oblivious.

I prefer the latter, because I would deeply enjoy the irony if he didn’t have the awareness to not piss of the NCAA, leading them to thoroughly investigate the sign stealing stuff, ultimately leading to Harbaugh being responsible for both winning and then losing the same national championship

I'm taking the over because I think Bama is going to make their next coach the highest paid in college football by 20-25% and pull a big time name.

It is gone already, was at the Carpenter Rd Meijers from 11-2pm today, and now it is off to the Walmart in Canton (???????) from 4-7. Tomorrow it will be at the State St MDen from 4-7pm which will be a complete shitshow will a line down the block I would guess. I waffled about going for a while because I just assumed it would be a madhouse, but when I arrived there was only one person in line ahead of me.

This is an absolutely insane penalty for driving a kid to meet a booster regarding NIL.

$5k plus 1% of the football budget is close to $2 million loving dollars for a car ride.

I don’t understand why it’s so hard to grasp that the borderline psychotic types that make it to the very top of the coaching ranks aren’t simply looking for the cushiest job they can land. If they were they would have already settled at a lower level with a way lower effort reward ratio.

I mean up to the point where you’re competing for the title for sure. But he literally did that with his current team this year. That’s where it gets harder to understand the jump. I mean Bama is probably a better spot to consistently make the playoffs but it also comes with boosters and a fan base who’ll be up your rear end if things don’t go perfectly. Even the egotistical dudes have to recognize that there will be down years and it’d be good to be at a place that doesn’t run you out on a rail for getting 8 wins as you reload.

The prestige makes sense, especially for an ultra ambitious guy. That and greater admin buy in bc UW is a good school but they’re an academic institution first.

do you think this is like high school where the coach also needs to teach a class?

There's maybe 5-6 cities in the country that have anything you just can't get anywhere else (see that Tennessee Williams quote about New Orleans). We are an extremely homogenized society.

And if you're looking at the truly discerning cultural things that are genuinely geographically limited, I doubt a football coach and their family are going to be so culturally sophisticated enough for it to matter. The San Diego Zoo is far better than the Birmingham Zoo, sure, but they're both zoos. The St Louis Ballet is not the ABT, but is a 100hr a week coaching weirdo going to care? You can see plays at the Steppenwolf, or at the Hippodrome in Gainesville. A theater major will care about the difference, not a D-1 coach.

Tuscaloosa has decent-enough restaurants and Mercedes dealerships. If they cared about fine dining or cultural poo poo they'd be coaching in NYC, Chicago, or LA, and all three of those suck at college football.
