    No college football until spring

    How are universities in places like Wisconsin, Michigan, and other extreme Northern sites going to play football in January or February? Even Louisville can get some frigid winter conditions. Does not seem realistic.

    California Decision

    The California college system has the largest enrollment in the USA. Yesterday, it cancelled students on campuses for the fall 2020 semester, including sports. Also, Dr. Fauci of the US Center for Disease Control said that football contact spreads the coronavirus. The NFL may or may not play...

    Ohio State-Michigan

    With UK-UL starting at exactly the same time as OSU-Michigan, the TV audience will be very small for UK-UL. Outside Kentucky, the attention will be on Ann Arbor and later in the day on Alabama-Auburn.

    NFL QB's

    Louisville (Baltimore and New Orleans) and Oklahoma (Arizona and Cleveland) both have two NFL starting quarterbacks...or 12.5% of the NFL's starting QBs. Quite an achievement. Don't believe any other university has two starters but I am not sure. UL has always had terrific QB play going back...

    Duke and Kentucky

    The Wall Street Journal today (May 2, 2019) has an article titled: "How Not to Bribe Coaches" about the "basketball corruption scandal." Following is a paragraph in the article that describes Clemson's effort to recruit Zion Williamson (the Christian Dawkins mentioned has been accused by the...

    Snail Yeah...

    Snell will be manhandled in the NFL. Might be in the league a couple of years. Very good college player whose skills will not transfer well to NFL, where there is so much better size and speed.

    Talent Evaluation Question

    How much talent is on the current squad? Was the bad record in 2018 the result more of lack of good players or bad coaching. What do you think?

    Coaches Question

    On the Clemson/Notre Dame playoff telecast, an announcer said that Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables is paid $2.7 million annually. That is more than most college head coaches and more than most NFL coordinators. And it is more than almost all colleges should and can pay an...

    Coaches Question

    The new coaches talk like they know what they are doing and have a plan to turn the program around. My main concern is that almost none of them have Power 5 experience. Whether than can evaluate and recruit talent is a question mark. Also, who is the main recruiter and what states will he...

    Petrino's Negative Legacy

    Not only did Petrino fail as an in-game coach but he (according to a CJ article) offended local high-profile high school players by paying little or no attention to them. As a result, most are headed elsewhere and not to UL. Try as I might, I can find no logical explanation for such behavior...

    NFL Coach

    Dave Toub is the 56 year old assistant head coach to Andy Reid of the Kansas City Chiefs with college and NFL coaching experience. He is a hot candidate for one of the upcoming NFL hirings. UL should see if he might be interested. You don't get to be Reid's top assistant without being...

    Downside of Satterfield

    Satterfield is North Carolina through and through. If he comes to UL and wins, he will be a top candidate when 67 year old Mack Brown retires at UNC in several years. Do we want to be a training ground for Carolina?

    Do you think Brohm turned UofL down because?

    I think at age 47 Brohm will stay at Purdue for about three more years. Assuming he does well, he will then go to the NFL or to Notre Dame if there is an opening.

    Contract Question

    Saw a report that Brohm's Purdue buyout amount is reduced by a million dollars on December 5, 2018. If that is true maybe a deal to coach UL comes afterwards. That is a lot of money just to move the hiring up one week. Any thoughts?

    Go get Luke Fickel now

    Fickle was in way over his head when he was OSU's interim coach before Urban Meyer arrived. Maybe he has improved with experience but I have doubts how he would do against ACC teams.
