Bill Belichick's girlfriend being copied on all North Carolina emails is a sign of shadow coaching

Belichick is telling all the North Carolina officials to copy his girlfriend on any emails that they send him... she's apparently very smart philosopher, right? He's asking his bosses to copy her on all the emails... Is she the shadow coach at UNC?

Subjective analysis of program dynamics.

Stetson Bennett complaining about handcuffs during his arrest is a red flag for his pain tolerance in the NFL

I'm reviewing his body cam footage of his arrest and I, the only thing I didn't like about it was how he bitched about when they put his handcuffs on. He just kept, the first thing he did was complain about how painful the handcuffs were. And I'm like, look man, like pain is temporary, if you get banged up in the game and you start complaining like get your mentals like broken. ... if he's, if you know, if he's got a low pain tolerance, that's one thing.

Bennett has not yet had a significant NFL career to judge his pain tolerance, largely due to spending time on the reserve/non-football illness list as a rookie.

The Wisconsin head coaching job is better than the Nebraska job

I think I would rather, I would rather take the Wisconsin job than the Nebraska job. Nebraska fans will get very upset, but I agree. Nebraska feels like it's the entire job is poisoned... Really the only way that you can possibly succeed at Nebraska is to do what Bo Pelini did... which is to just make everybody in town hate you.

Wisconsin hired Luke Fickell and Nebraska hired Matt Rhule. Job desirability is subjective, but Wisconsin's recent floor has been significantly higher.

Clemson at 16-to-1 is a great value bet to make the College Football Playoff

A future that I had my eyes on: Clemson at 16 to one to win the national title. I don't think they're gonna win the national title. I think they're gonna be in the playoff though. I think Clemson is sneaky a little bit back. DJ Uiagalelei is playing well... they've played the two toughest teams in Wake Forest and NC State and the ACC.

Clemson finished the regular season 11-2 and missed the College Football Playoff in 2022.

Georgia's recent performance suggests they aren't the juggernaut people thought

Did we get a little bit duped by Georgia's dominance? Because we watched that 49 to three game against Oregon week one... and we're like, this team is insane. And I think they're obviously still very, very good. But the last two... games in a row where they've played down to their competition severely. Makes you start to say, Huh, maybe this isn't like the juggernaut we all thought it would be.

Georgia went on to go undefeated and won the National Championship in dominant fashion, proving they were indeed a juggernaut.

James Madison University will be ranked in the Top 25 if they are undefeated heading into the Marshall game

They should be wins [Arkansas State/Georgia State]. And then they got Marshall at home. They will be ranked at least 23 if they go into that game... It's pretty crazy the fact that they, this is their first year as a big boy program and they're undefeated.

JMU actually entered the AP Poll at #25 on October 9th (after beating Arkansas State) but lost to Georgia Southern before the Marshall game.

Every college football program is going to attempt to reach herd immunity to ensure the season happens

Pretty much every football program is having is going to go for herd immunity and it's good at we're gonna have a football season that just every team that already got it out of the way.

While many players did contract COVID, 'herd immunity' was never an official or confirmed athletic department policy; seasons were managed through testing and distancing.
