Is you conjecture that 160+ IQ folks are serial killers more than conjecture?

Trust me. I get your point. It's aggravating to live in a world full of people who don't think beyond the surface of issues, when you have the capability and interest to see deeper.

My take is that you think you see deeper. I don't think that's true. I think you look down on people when you have no ability to look up.

Thanks for the sick burn when all I was saying was that our society is basically built for those who buy lottery tickets and $60 t-shirts and enjoy sitcoms.  To share that that's not me isn't arrogance, it's factual.  

We hear about "serial killers" rarely, fortunately, and it probably sticks in our minds when one is said to be "brilliant".  One probably has to be fairly savvy to achieve the status of "serial killer", otherwise you get caught early.

Fairly often what we "think"  is true because of sporadic and poorly correlated memories doesn't stand up to statistics.  Folks might think, for example, that "assault rifles" are used often to kill people in the US, but the statistics say otherwise.  They have been used of course in some mass killings that make a lot of headlines.

We COULD get back on-topic about how to stem the Alabama Crimson Tsunami football program........

The NCAA placed Notre Dame's football program on probation for one year on Thursday, after the sides agreed that a former assistant coach had impermissible off-campus recruiting contact with a high school player in January 2019.

Sources told ESPN on Thursday that those involved were former cornerbacks coach Todd Lyght and linebacker Sav'ell Smalls of Garfield High School in Seattle. Lyght, an All-America cornerback at Notre Dame in 1989, was fired in January 2020.

Smalls, the No. 15 prospect in the 2020 ESPN 300, signed with Washington. He was involved in similar infractions cases involving Florida's Dan Mullen and Texas A&M's Jimbo Fisher, which led to the head coaches receiving show causes last year for improper recruiting contact. The Gators and Aggies were also placed on probation for one year and were no longer permitted to continue recruiting Smalls.

The NCAA found that Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly also had impermissible off-campus contact with a prospect in October 2019 when the player recognized the Irish head coach walking through a high school cafeteria in Pickerington, Ohio, and asked him to take a photo. The NCAA said Kelly initially declined before ultimately allowing the photo.


In addition to the probation, the Fighting Irish were fined $5,000 and face other recruiting restrictions, including one less official visit, 14 fewer days for unofficial visits and a seven-day off-campus recruiting ban for the entire coaching staff this spring.

 But if you actually wanna save college football, create a structure where more than 6-8 teams have a reasonable shot of making the playoffs.

Then the playoffs need to start the 1st week of September.Because Sunday bound talent will jump ship if the season is stretched
