    That doesn't get you a million dollar paycheck just respect. And respect can be destroyed quickly when you squander it.

    Doug Marrone

    What's he done since then ? Why do you have such a hard on for him? I get you think he saved us I think he was false hope and not a good person. But you defend him to the last. The guy never stayed with one organization for more than 3 years. Most stops were less than 2. There's a...

    Doug Marrone

    I think they are mad bcause he's a d bag and a liar who quit when he saw it might get tough. And the way he quit messed up a recruiting class and left everyone feeling like they just found out the nice loaf of bread they'd been enjoying was filled with mold. You can't wash away the filth...

    Doug Marrone

    Not in my experience. You need someone who can make hard decisions but also generate support and goodwill. I've experienced both versions. Marrone breaks a culture cuts bait and runs and leaves behind many haters. Babers does it right.

    No he was just a complete jerk. Face it. Everywhere he goes there is a trail of people who don't like him.

    Dino Freaking Babers

    Smart organizations of any type have an ability to see the future when it comes to personnel decisions. If we are moving strongly forward at the end of the second year, get the contract done. Anyone can see The difference between Dino and anyone we've had around in decades is very clear...

    My apologies to those I offended with my negative connotation of Coach Hop

    I didn't see your comments but I don't see what's wrong in thinking that maybe Hop is like Riker - a really good 2nd in command. We'll never know til the time comes but the brief glimpses of evidence we have of coaching in games... I really hope it's a smooth transition and we don't...

    I like so many things that are happening right now

    Is there another AET out there sitting on the bench at a powerhouse waiting to join the new fast? Maybe you can't catch lightning twice I don't know.

    Legit question...Will Dungey be a Heisman Hopeful next season?

    Was there a public outcry ? Or did no one really care, just business as usual

    About our offensive system

    How long do we think this offense will be an advantage before it gets arbitraged away? I would think plenty long enough to get us back to the point where we are recruiting solidly. So that even if the advantage goes away to some degree or is so copied that it doesn't matter, we still are very...

    Dino - Live on Sportscenter: Wed 12:30

    I thought he did great. He also got quite a chunk of time. This guy is good at all aspects of running a program - I continue to be impressed.

    Future Campus Framework Presentation...

    with the level of recruits Miami gets they should compete. The fact that they don't has been about bad coaching hires. That may have been corrected this time around.

    Anyone have a good feel for NC State this year?

    I have just enough free time with 3 kids and a 60 hour work week to watch the Syracuse game and maybe the Florida game with my partner if they don't coincide. That's it for my football watching other than highlights. So I have no clue how NC State matches up with us. I know they almost took...

    What's so special about FSU and Clemson?

    The question is whether the defense can stop the big plays and easy scores when the other guys have tall/fast/athletic receivers and if we can out some pressure on QBs. Vs ND and Louisville we couldn't do it. Everything looked soooo much better yesterday and we won. But fl state and Clemson...

    Students Need To Be Called Out...

    The students will come once we start winning consistently. The product last night was fantastic. Even if we lose playing like that, it's an exciting kind of football that is easy to get behind. The students will come around. But there has been no culture of supporting football for a...

    New SU Bar in NYC

    Well I guess i'd rather have a consensus cuse hangout that didn't appear to be so lacking. Why should su fans hang out there more than once if it sucks? Bars in that part of town tend to have about a 1.5 year lifespan anyway. In any case I hope it's great and everyone goes there- it just...

    New SU Bar in NYC

    A theme that doesn't follow through with itself will though, especially if the atmosphere is as lacking as this appears to be. Why watch a cuse game at a place called Marshall street that sucks when you could watch a cuse game at someplace the alumni association designates that is actually...

    New SU Bar in NYC

    This would be awesome...except the bar looks to be lacking any sort of character what-so-ever and the menu really has nothing to do with upstate new York other than the large number of products that include hot sauce. I give it six months. It would be possible to have a really kick A...

    Your Ra Ra Colgate Win Last Week

    I don't recall a game since PP left that I had any ounce of confidence going in to the half down 2 touchdowns. We can score fast and we can wear this defense out. Louisville is the better team by quite a bit, but they are getting frustrated and we are at home. Feels good to stay excited...

    So I'm in Charlottesville working...

    I just find most grads I've met from there to be annoyingly preppy, very arrogant, and not nearly as impressive as they believe themselves to be. I'm sure you are none of those things :) just generalizing as someone who has interviewed and hung out with many kids from top schools around the...

    So I'm in Charlottesville working...

    sorry to throw a negative take in here. But to me UVA is an obnoxious preppy school filled with kids who couldn't get in to Duke, Emory, or any elite northern school. That would all be fine if they weren't so douchey. They are neither truly southern nor northern. The MBA program...

    Congratulations, Malachi! And behind Door #22, heeere's

    I think you are both slightly over-estimating taxes, and ignoring the long-run rate of return on global stocks and bonds. 5%/year is doable.

    Congratulations, Malachi! And behind Door #22, heeere's

    The point people are making is that he's going to get a lot of money in a short period of time. During that period of time his lifestyle will be by default more expensive than a normal 20 year old kid, even if he's careful. So lets say he spends $125k a year, does not buy a house, and does...

    OT: Met Keyshawn Johnson tonight...

    I thinks the mistake is posting something like that, not necessarily in asking the question. When you have no idea how valid the answer is, not a good look to write about it in a public forum. it could easily be picked up by some national news feed and then you have a serious issue.

    Class of 2016 7 Baylor recruits Request Release from 2016 NLI

    I'm not sure how you can say that having seen the video. That's not a 'first time' instance of abuse. Abuse starts in small ways, first psychological manipulation and control, then maybe gets a little physical. The offender pushes the limit based on what is tolerated (victim keeps coming...

    They should take a flight out to Santa Barbara and look at UCSB as a model for how to integrate bicycle and pedestrian traffic. not to mention long boards, roller blades, and assorted other personal wheeled devices the kids ride around on out there.

    You must not have kids. A 17 year old kid has close to zero judgment, even the good ones who think they do. they do need guidance if you as a parent have it to give.

    Oh happy day

    Academics, as a group, are perhaps the most egotistical, self-important, irrational, and mutually self aggrandizing people on the planet. Granted the 2% who don't suck tend to be awesome people to be around. But whiny and professor are two words that go very naturally together. This...
