If I was an athletic director, there is not a coach I'd rather have running my football program, than Urban Meyer. I am convinced that he is the best coach in college football.

I wouldn't argue Satan. Satan hired Lane Kiffin. Statutory disqualification.

Urb definitely left a few class points on the field last night by not going victory formation and letting the clock run. Ore had 2 time outs, but weren't calling them with the clock running under 1:00. He should have gone victory, and if Ore called a TO then rammed it down their throats. The game was over already.

Anyhow, lack of class aside, yeah he's the best right now.

You know I agree on the Kiffin hiring.

I don't begrudge the last touchdown all that much. They didn't throw the ball. It gives the game a blowout narrative for the low IQ though.

Cardale was a wild card that kept a number of drives going. OSU defense should get all the credit in the world, along with OSU's power run game(a marked contrast to Freemans performance, not Tyner). Elliot has incredible balance, speed and agility.

They took Oregons punches and never flinched.... lots of teams would have had tight ahole syndrome after the second turnover in the 3rd quarter. OSU just went about there business and crammed the ball down Oregon's throat.

Elliot has been playing with a banged up left wrist (offseason surgery) as well. From what I noticed he didn't put the ball in that hand once last night.

I would hate to see what he can do with 2 hands Laughing

he good

Kid is damn good. He made himself a whole bunch of future money last night. Stay healthy E²

The rematch in Lane to open the 2015 season just got a lot more interesting.

Can VT do it twice...? In Bud we trust. Mr. Green

Its the OSU v MICH games i am looking forward to.

Urb and Jim are going to be great theater.

chavez · RIP MHL 04/25/1958 - 01/11/2006

eeven73, no kidding. I can't imagine it being much better than Jim vs Pete, but I'm 100% looking forward to it!

eeven73 · Posted: Jan 14, 2015 8:00 am Post subject:

Pete kinda let Jim bully him.

I don't think Urb is gonna have any of that stuff.

I think there is a 60% chance it becomes a BITTER, BITTER rivalry with only public decorum barely able to contain hatred.

A 40% chance it is a BS love fest about mutual respect and crap like that with undercurrents of above.

chavez · RIP MHL 04/25/1958 - 01/11/2006

eeven73, I will never forget the "dude, what is your problem" midfield encounter. Classic!

eeven73 · Posted: Jan 14, 2015 9:39 am Post subject:

Yes it was.

When dogshit Stanford beat USC at the Coluseium 2007 it was like the Bully getting punched in the school yard.

Then he rubbed Petes nose in stuff with Toby Gerhardt in 09.(Whats your problem)

I really can't believe that Pete wasn't more bitter towards the Red Ass.

I'm hoping the rivalry becomes more competitive as well.

Watch what you wish for. Harbaugh is a hell of a motivator. I am sure there is a big Urb dartboard in his office right now.

If his football career fails he should come to Oregon and work for liquor control doing stings on bars for carding. He would be employee of the year Laughing

Is that a picture of the kid's father? WTF he makes Greg Oden look like a young man.

^ When I am elected President my first Executive Action will be to strike all records of Greg Oden and Sam Bowie from the face of the earth.

We got Something out of Roy.

Oden and Bowie were worthless

E.J. · Ladies Man Joined: 15 Jan 2003 Posts: 7597 City: Mogadishu

Roy was VERY GOOD for a bit.... ROY, few all star teams, was one of the best 2's in the NBA during his run. One of the few "stars" on other teams that I really liked....and he seemed to be a Jazz killer, insult to injury.

eeven73 · Posted: Jan 21, 2015 10:41 am Post subject:

yes, my "something" was more trying to emphasize the NOTHING that Bowie and ODEN were.

Roy was awesome for a few. Sad his body didn't last. Although we did end up in a better spot with Lillard.

good read on the ut/a&m recruiting battle

murray confirms a&m commitment - texas has to land locksley, and probably another qb, or they are in a hell of a spot next year.

We don't know that 100% for sure. Heard has not stepped on the field. The offense is changing. Reports are that Heard is not doing well, but we don't know for sure until he steps on the field. Colt was a huge question mark when he started and he ended up being one of the best to play college ball.

I'm more interested in getting some new BIG and MEAN OLine guys. I miss dudes like Studdard.

I think that should change. All the recruiting talk, etc. is for the 2015 season.
