Maybe for the NYC centric view. But that vernacular is used very common in the Philadelphia area for the Delaware valley.

“All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined….. with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.” - Abraham Lincoln in his address to the assembly at Lyceum, 1838. I think this holds true...

By the 1860s neither the US, nor major European powers were capable of projecting enough power across the Atlantic to be able to defeat each-other on foreign soil. There was just no capacity to be able to sustain a force of 200k across logistics like that. So a victory on foreign soil was out of...

I’m bright enough to know the difference between then and than.

No idea why this is such a controversial topic that has people making deep personal attacks. These are just opinions and really not that big of a deal. Someone has yet to provide a reasonable argument that Rees is anything above an average OC. The biggest argument so far is that Saban hired...

Kind of an unfair advantage tbh. Drew Pyne was basically Tommy Rees 2.0. It’s not often a coach gets to basically coach themselves on the field.

What has he done to show that he's a good coach? i didnt even say he was terrible, or even bad. Just that he is not a good coach. Left out in my brief comment above: Notre Dame offense in 2022 Rees' last year: 31.8 ppg (42nd) 397 ypg (60th) vs 2023 After Rees leaves 39.2 ppg (7th) and 432.2...

He's not a good coach. Alabama's offense dropped off drastically when he took over in 2023. He turned a bad Browns offense into one of the bottom 3 in the NFL.

I think we all got PTSD from high profile receivers underperforming here. But given that it’s OSU, identified by Hartline the best WR mind in the country, and the fact that these guys were sitting behind the best WR corps in the country, I don’t think there is any concern for their lack of...

Was projected as a 5th round pick by PFF, ranked just ahead of Snowden from Utah. Pretty reassuring getting another NFL caliber corner with Moore locking down one side. Looks like he didn’t have as great of a year, after a spectacular season opposite Hunter. Should bounce back nicely playing...

Two year starter as a depth piece pickup. A lot to like with that.

Maybe when Freeman said “run it back” he meant literally. 10-2, poptarts bowl declination incoming 2026!

I think it’s safe to combine this thread with the bedwetters one now.

Counterpoint: both Fields and Pauling had significant production drops transferring here. The reality is that can be used against us in the receiver transfer portal. No matter how good our QB is, it won’t matter in their eyes if we’re running the ball 400 times a year.

I’ll I’m asking for his one all-American wide receiver, two elite Dts, another depth dlineman… nothing special but preferably all-conference level. A game proven backup QB would be nice, and a solid pass catching TE to go with him. Also, a kicker that can accurately knock down field goals from...

This would be a dream scenario portal haul, not the likely outcome. I think everyone on the board takes this no questions asked.

I think people are looking at this wrong. USC was already replaced, kudus to Pete and the administration having the foresight for locking in that 10+ year Clemson deal. BYU is just a stop gap for next year. Next year the schedule looks meh, but in this era of CFB you can’t look at teams based...

Give credit to South Carolina. A USC program that doesn’t cancel their out of conference rivalry game with Clemson every November because they’re scared.

Dumbest thing is, there’s a good chance Riley isn’t the coach after next season based on their tough schedule.

Pro tip. If you put your bad takes in the same post, rather than spacing them out by 4 minutes, you’ll get half the amount of downvotes.
