LOL. It's like they want to find out just how many more people can laugh at UNC football. Good job, Bill.

I'm good with it. Here's a good clip of two local sports journalists talking guys sharing their thoughts on Wade and what he's actually saying. He's really talking to State fans and level setting this team's expectations right now. I am 100% here for a coach doing that with this delusional fan base.

It's been cold here for the last few weeks so I think the Pack are acclimated as well. In fact, we've a few days of snow down here this week, plus right now. Nothing is sticking, though.

State is the highest seed remaining in this College Cup. So they must a 1 or a 2 seed or something high like that? No, they're a 15 seed!
The College Cup is being played right here in Cary, NC. Too cold, though. If I wanted to be outside to watch a sporting event in the cold, I would still be in northern Michigan. Eff that ess.

Hurts' QB rating for last night's game was a 27. Apparently if a QB just spikes the ball on every single down for the entire game, they would still get a 29 rating.

These two paragraphs from tommybiden's link are delicious that ends with an amazing chef's kiss:
Buyout totals are subject to change in certain circumstances; for example, if Kelly or Franklin land new jobs, the schools that fired them owe them less money. Napier's contract with Florida, on the other hand, did not include offset language, and half of his buyout is owed to him within 30 days of his firing.
Kelly's buyout is the second largest in college football history, behind Texas A&M's record $76 million buyout of Jimbo Fisher in 2023. Both coaches were hired by current LSU athletic director Scott Woodward, who ran the Texas A&M athletic department from 2016 to 2019.

It would be interesting to know if Billups was a habitual gambler during his playing games. Organized crime is very good at getting its hooks into pro athletes that gamble, and lose, a lot. It would be strange thinking if he somehow decided just now to work with a crime syndicate this late in his life.
