That was before they actually started playing games against other college athletes.

Where did Pringle end up and did he play this year? I've wondered about Franks and where he has been.
How do we strike out on every aspect from Recruiting to player assessment to strength, conditioning, speed, etc...
How so many misses?

Had to look it up. Pringle played at Syracuse this year.

Just saw him listed, no participation stats.

Who was the OL coach? Who was the coach that gave him a raise and extension?
I seriously don't know why this isn't a bigger deal.

Teasley had put up one of the wors OLs in the entire nation 2 years running and he got a HUGE raise.

People don't seem appropriately outraged by that.

Jmo, but I think its because the entire staff got a big raise after the 9 win season.

I’m sure you’re right, but I just can’t see a justification for giving an objectively terrible coach a huge raise. Think about those games. The main hallmark was Sellers running around like crazy making plays. He had to run around like crazy bc the OL sucked.

Oh, dont get me wrong. Im not defenslding the move, just speculating on what lead to it.

I am with you, and was with you when his head was called for a long time ago.

I remember the usual jokes about the "fire everyone crowd". And yet, in the end, they did earn a firing.
