What a moronic blowhard that guy is.
He comes across that way, and has no ground on which to stand really.  Maybe somehow he's a good coach and nice guy, but ...

Coachspeak is there for a reason.

Would be nice of course, but I suspect Ohio State will have a very good team.  Duh.

Texas?  OK I guess.

Texas in the top 4?  Obviously I'd love to see it, but no.

Yeah, they basically project a 12-1 Texas which seems "unusual" but is good for clicks.  USC is another hot pick too.

I think the playoff often is three teams many project and one outlier.

it's a fantastically stupid list because there is no real way to define "football culture" and there is no way for whoever wrote that list to know all the inner workings of all of those programs and how their "culture" works.

the concern about the 3-3-5 defense, at least from fans, is its ability to stop the run. With its reputation as a run-first league with massive O-linemen, it's hard to believe, but 13 out of 14 Big Ten schools used 11 personnel more than any other last season. In layman's terms, that's one running back, one tight end and three receivers. Versatility in the backend will be important.

I've been on teams with poor culture and good culture.  I think the basic precepts can be defined.  My junior year, our basketball team had poor culture, the next year the problem players graduated and we had very good culture, and it showed.  With good culture, players are less selfish, help each other, don't put down the "2s", work hard at practice, listen and respect the coach, and vice versa.  Bad culture teams often have cliques that alienate part of the team.

You need to eat off the floor.  And don't let yourself be hunted, be the hunter.

You take the bare minimum to remain eligible and don't end up with enough credits of the right kind.  It'd certainly weak of course, maybe he changed majors several times, that can do it.  I ended up having to go an extra quarter because I lacked ten hours of liberal arts courses.
