Can we start blaming Judy also, she seems to be the only constant. Not so fast, my friend ... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tin men at 62, and ol' Skippy's LA Tech Bulldogs at 50. Ouch.http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2556518-college-football-rankings-2015-power-ranking-all-128-teams-for-week-1 Where are we ranked? I don't have time for a slideshow that's going to take me 115 clicks to find out USF sucks. 96th. Skip might actually be a good coach????...he had success at ECU and now in Louisiana. Perhaps it was that Indian Burial Ground Curse once again that plagued his tenure with us. Or micromanagement from Doug? Who knows...let's see how his season plays out and good luck to him and his guys. Our current coach's former team is ranked at #51..he helped build that one up to that ranking. Skippy didn't build anything, not sure if you've heard about a guy named Sonny Dykes? But he put La Tech on the map while Skippy was crashing our program. Skippy did build something, not sure if you've ever heard of a guy named John (football coach) Thompson? And I get a kick out the ol "Skip was over his head here" stuff.... like that BE was the second coming of the SEC or something. Out of curiosity, what was it my post about CSH that got it removed, but his post about Sonny Dykes building a national title contender gets to stick? Twas not I Wow. I got axed from the very top for pointing out the number of players who graduated along with Dykes's year by year record. You sure you actually posted it? I can see Unapproved posts but I got nothing ... Other page. Ignore my ********. After I read BULLZ's comment, I just assumed the only excuse was that my numbers weren't on the thread anymore.

Hiring coaches is inexact. Ohio State hires Tressel from Youngstown and they win (leaving aside the off field stuff). Mike London went 24-5 in two years at Richmond including a national title and has been highly disappointing in his 5 years at Virginia. Richrod was great at WVU, not so great at Michigan, and is doing well at Arizona. Sometimes guys get into situations that just don't work for them.
