Anyone notice the religious pull of BY? Kinda like that of ND back in the day. Recollect most/all of the Cincy kids at parochial schools in a pipeline to ND. Heck, even a HS coach went to ND. Does/has anyone tracked how the two year mission impacted these kids? Certainly a bit more mature, maybe a bit more ripped/developed?

I don't think the mission affects their football development, because they're not going on the mission and lifting or training. They could be in say, Mexico, or El Salvador, or even just in America spreading LDS gospel there's not a weight room or dietary restrictions. They're there to help, no one sees them as an athlete, just the kid helping do XYZ. I don't think it helps or hurts

WR Coach Cortez Hankton (Official Thread)

calibuck
You got to my thought before I did BB. Appears that he's checking the 'recruiting' box, so we'll see how well he does with on field adjustments, teaching skills with our guys. Did I read that Day had Jeremiah and ? in the interviews with the WR candidates, and the player (or two) all pointed to Hankton as the one they wanted to follow. Would seem to me to be a very smart decision on Day's part. Don't know how he's going to solve the problem of only one ball, so targets might not be all the WRs want.....

ttun basketball (Dusty May out.......)

calibuck
Wonder if the percentage of college coaches moving to the NBA has a higher %age of success than the football coaches making that move? Don't really care much, just an idle thought. Also, the players at the NBA level are all so good, it's hard to (for me at least) get into the game, as a simple step left can cut off passing lane, and goes unnoticed. The 'changing landscape' of college basketball/sports is what is called 'systemic risk', meaning that the risk is equal to everyone, but cannot be quantified. This from a guy that used to have season tickets to the Warriors. Go Bucks!

USC Trojans (official thread)

calibuck
If USC merely recruited (and signed) athletes in a ten mile radius from USC, they'd be in the national championship each and every year. If one lives in the LA basin, you root for one of two schools, USC or UCLA. When lived there, scored student tickets for USC, oh three or four times a year. For a small, private school, USC has some of the most fervent followers ever. Anyway, their expectations are just as high as those for the Buckeyes, only the Buckeyes produce results.....
