2009 NCAA Football Thread: Revenge of the Computer Polls - Page 61

Good for Ingram. I figured they'd sham a way for Colt McCoy to get it.

Surprised by Gerhart finishing 2nd. Very respectable showing and turnout by the voters.

BlackLantern · 12-12-2009, 08:42 PM

The U is very good so far

Notre Dame couldn't hire Brian Kelly if he wasn't going to be able to work for the school until after the Sugar Bowl. You can't afford to put in place a coaching staff after January first while still trying to recruit and find coaches and all of that. Can't do it.

You also can't coach Cincinnati while coaching Notre Dame. You can't sit in Cincinnati, while calling up coaches and players to recruit for Notre Dame and asking the responsibilities of two colleges to be placed upon his shoulders isn't fair either.

Does it suck for Cincinnati's players? Of course.

Does it suck for Brian Kelly? Yea. It's requires you to assume Brian Kelly is inhuman to believe that Brian Kelly ISN'T disappointed that he won't be able to coach HIS kids in the bowl game.

But you can't ask a man to give up a better career, a better life, a better paycheck all in the name of a month in a game that doesn't matter.

You can call him an *******, but it's unfair to do so. This is a man doing the best he can in a complex situation.

As a Bearcat fan...I can call him whatever I like.

Congrats to Ingram on winning the Heisman. The voters definitely showed they have some sensibility by not giving it to McCoy, who wasn't even close to winning it over Gerhart and Ingram. Suh should have won, but I'm not disappointed that Ingram got the trophy; great kid and great player for Alabama.

Immortalfire · 12-13-2009, 02:35 PM

Ingram could be favored for the 2010 Heisman..http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/story/1...eisman-in-2010

Ryan Mallet needs to be on the list..And I'd love to hear the reasons that these people have to think Julio Jones is better than AJ Green.

Darthphere · 12-13-2009, 02:38 PM

His name is Julio Jones for one thing.

Immortalfire · 12-13-2009, 02:47 PM

And he plays for Bama...guess that's all he needs.

Mister J · 12-14-2009, 03:52 PM

Locker to Return For Senior Season

Surprising. He easily could have been the first QB off the board.

Excel · 12-14-2009, 04:12 PM

What the hell is he thinking.

BlackLantern · 12-15-2009, 06:58 AM

he probably doesn't want to go to some ****** NFL team

Darthphere · 12-15-2009, 10:17 AM

The only way he doesn't get picked for a **** team any year he comes out is if he starts sucking a little bit.

Excel · 12-15-2009, 11:21 AM

Yup, but now hell go to a **** team with a rookie salary cap.

BlackLantern · 12-15-2009, 11:24 AM

Rookie salary cap is long, long overdue

Mister J · 12-15-2009, 11:56 AM

Preach on!

Maybe Locker really wants to go to the Rose Bowl ...without buying a ticket. *shrugs*

RAMORE · 12-16-2009, 12:37 PM

Big Ten exploring the idea of adding a school.

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=4745381

So will it be someone close or unconventional.

I think UCF should made a bid for it they're an up and comer who need to be in a BCS conference to get better IMO.

Immortalfire · 12-16-2009, 12:39 PM

Interesting. But how will they still be the Big 10? They already have eleven schools

Maybe they can be "The Other Big 12 That's Up North"..lol

Mister J · 12-16-2009, 12:50 PM

Top targets I've heard are Missouri and Notre Dame.

I'd prefer the former, simply because it'd set off another series of conference scrambling and team swiping. Maybe TCU would get a Big 12 slot of this.

BlackLantern · 12-16-2009, 12:53 PM

Notre Dame is too snotty to join a conference....to even suggest it is sacrilege...how dare anyone suggest they mingle with the common folk?

Immortalfire · 12-16-2009, 12:54 PM

Notre Dame will never join anyone. Which is weird, given that virtually all of their other sports are in the Big East.

that's because in those sports, you HAVE to join a conference

Immortalfire · 12-16-2009, 01:13 PM

Football is above the law

BlackLantern · 12-16-2009, 01:15 PM

unlike field hockey

RAMORE · 12-16-2009, 01:39 PM

I would prefer it be an up anc coming school as well. Well where would yall see UCF should make a push to get in a better conference?

El_Citrus · 12-16-2009, 01:47 PM

The Big 10 + 2? Someone in their front office has to realize the stupidity of their name with the number of teams they have (or will have). Then again, those same front office people did sign an extension to keep the Rose Bowl a Pac-10/Big 10 "tradition".

BlackLantern · 12-16-2009, 02:12 PM

so Erin Andrews faced her peeper in court and hopes that "he never sees the light of day again"
