Yeah, I don't know how you can build a sustainable program right across the county from the Big House.

Derek Dooley was a .500 coach out of the WAC when Tennessee scooped him up amongst an army of zero suitors.  Worked out well for the rest of the SEC, I’d say.

Dooley has done OK as OC at Mizzou, by appearances anyway.  Having Locke might have helped.

Hah.

I think Mizzou is a bit underrated.

According to the B10 board, Mizzou is only ranked because they're an SEC team.

When did the Big Ten Board reach that unanimous consensus?

It is often considered than any 8-4 SEC team who gets ranked is only there because of the SEC halo.

I find it interesting that sportswriter from around the country are so influenced, but some think they are.  Coaches as well.

When I am President, I'm going to issue an executive order banning red football fields.

What about the smurf-turf at Boise St?

I would grandfather that one in, it's heinous to be sure, but it's been there a while.
But when replaced, it shall be green, unless it is in Kentucky.

Same.  I don't like it, but at least it's original.  The copycat ones are just awful, and they are popping up increasingly in high school fields.

I'd change it to green, just because it was original and has been that way a couple decades doesn't make it right

Of course it's not right, but as noted, it was original, a kind of a thing, and I rarely see it.  They should hire Les Miles to coach up there.

Idaho is a beautiful state.  It's not well known, but the territory was originally settled by a lady of ill repute (not counting the natives who were there long before of course).  She was the first permanent "white" settler, but had little business.

The people that sell field turf no doubt like the trend.

I do like the alternating light/dark green stripes every 5 yards.
