That doesn't equate to being a good head coach. And he was responsible for getting the talent on our campus.

over here on the east coast, we call those "Nor'easters". 1st football game I've ever attended during one. Nasty...but certainly memorable!

I wonder if Phil will willingly give up the film of the game and give up his 'top secret' defensive secrets about how to contain the Navy offense?.....our defense is much improved and has quicker LB's and DBs then last year and the new defense scheme allows them to attack instead of just react like last year...should be a closer game and am willing to go out and say we win that one at home...

We get one every now and then. I remember a few from high school. Just plain nasty stuff and the team without finesse wins.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

When you have better talent do you still have to yell "all out" on a blitz?

So Stallion is saying he believes Pitt has more talent than Ohio State does?
