Stewart Mandel can rot in hell

[djorange1989]

He made his ACC predictions today and has us going 4-8, with two OOC losses(we can assume that means Purdue and Army) and Dino being fired with 3 games left in the season. He mentions the second half slump last year and, like every other idiot who doesn’t do their homework, that both of our coordinators left without mentioning the guys replacing them are the teacher of Tony White and the pupil of Robert Anae. So Army with inferior talent and having to scrap the triple option is going to beat us? Another loser who can stick it!

 

[SUGIANT]

He’s a sports writer, until it’s played on the field it’s just a bunch of crap.

 

[RF2044]

Given how bad we've been in the main for an extended period of time, I understand why this type of stuff is the perception.

But that will make it that much sweeter when we shatter those expectations, and get to 8+ wins.

 

[orangenauburn]

Maybe we fell apart because injury and because one of our coordinator was pretty much checked out and already not a popular guy amongst some

 

[IthacaBarrel]

yeah will never understand getting fired up over writers and their predictions. He could be right probably wrong but the season will play out regardless. Dino isn't getting fired with 3 games left unless Beck is being given a test run which would mean the offense has been solid which would mean Dino won't be fired because the defense is going to be pretty damn good

 

[JKinPhilly]

oh the horror!

who gives a rat's a$$ what any of these people say until the season starts

Commissioner Gordon just lit the OiG signal over the night skies of Gotham, I see.

 

[SU91]

Only a few in the sports media actually know what they’re talking about. A guy like Eric MacLain on ACC Network is worth listening to. He’s close to the pulse of what’s actually happening in the ACC and, as a former player, actually understands the dynamics of the teams within the conference. There are very few like him though.

Writers only remember the previous season. That goes for us down in mediocre hell, as well as those at the very top. Too much movement in college football so they just run with it.

In our case, some don't remember 6-0. They remember 0-5 and that we lost the bowl game.

In 2019, they all thought we'd be great.

 

[Janner]

Perfect. Hope they post it all over the locker room.

He did a pretty good job predicting our record last season. Said 6-6 for the regular season (we finished the regular season at 7-5).

Not so much with Duke. He had them finishing 0-8 in the ACC and 2-10 overall.

They finished 9-4.

To be honest I kind of forgot about the 6-0 part myself.

He can rot in hell I say!!

Aside from the really good teams with a lot of depth, who the hell knows anything? I'm looking forward to the bill connelly advanced mathematical models where he knows nothing about the inputs but we're all supposed to believe the outputs.

I don’t think he claims you’re supposed to believe anything. He pretty much says he has limited inputs and needs more data. Small sample sport with high turnover every year. No one knows anything is a truism of the preseason on into infinity

I’m fairness, I forgot about 6-0.

Seriously.

 

[Stevenson]

I’m going to write a strongly worded letter to his editor.

First one since before your freshman year!

watched some highlights from last year, did you know they were top 15?

He can ROT!!! I know, but it’s fun to hate on them!

 

[qdawgg]

I’m going to write a strongly worded letter to his editor.

And personally drop it off with the secretary.

 

[Bulldog04]

To be honest I kind of forgot about the 6-0 part myself.

And honestly 7-0 was one late hit away. Not saying that penalty derailed the season, but that game was over if that doesn’t happen

Now that their is NIL and there is no CBA, can a coach fine his players for dumb stuff like that?

If this is what gets rot-in-hell status….I’m screwed.


Just win, baby.
