Re: Coach Drink Staff Thread
I’m stoked this thread got to 1,000 posts. There’s more twists and turns, gnashing of teeth, heart burn, contempt and so much more!!!!
This year is going to be interesting.

Re: Coach Drink Staff Thread
Hang on, look at the schedules between the two teams. State didn't play WVU and GT had Georgia and also played Clemson. Those stats you offer are misleading for your argument.BeauFoster wrote: ↑Tue Jan 01, 2019 9:14 amFYI, Georgia Tech gave up an average of 29.3 points/gm this season, while NC State gave up 24.9/gm (per cfbstats.com). Stats can be used to make any point you want to make, if you pick and choose the right ones. In this instance, a coach who most would argue as a home run (Woody), led a defense that gave up 5 more points per game than the guy many are arguing will be the worst hire in ASU football history.

I've been having my bank account sucked dry at the Mouse House since Christmas. What did I miss?

The Desperado hire ensures an effective defense next season. Time to calm your tits, boys.

Re: Coach Drink Staff Thread
Maybe none of the people involved in these changes care about App football as much as we do during Christmas. If I could only explain the looks I've been getting from my wife every time she sees me on my phone.
I mean seriously, I have the equivalent of a year's worth of posts just this month.

I did reach out to Duck and he said that Roof played no part in the decision to leave. He trusts drink, its just his time to make his money.

Granted, I doubt he’d throw anyone under the bus if he did feel poorly about any coaching decisions.ComebackShack wrote: ↑Tue Jan 01, 2019 4:58 pmI did reach out to Duck and he said that Roof played no part in the decision to leave. He trusts drink, its just his time to make his money.
