He's such a homer and he doesn't even try to hide it. He's like Paul Allen.

On a really dark day, any light seems to be bright. It is like me at night when I get up and I don's stub my toe and I declare victory.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

"We Are: ..."
...A waste of state resources
...The worst tackling team in the nation
...Getting worse
...A Flagship without a cause
...Fondly remembering the Joe Glenn era
...Rapidly trying to raise 1.2 million dollars to buy out Bob
...An underwhelming institution since 1862
...Trying to move all important programs out of Vermillion
...The best 0-3 team in the nation
...Looking forward to 2020
...Wondering what we're even doing here. Like, seriously, we've been playing D1 football for over a decade now, and we still can't pull it together. For Christ's sake, we are South Dakota's only liberal arts university! How is it possible that we can't field a team that can compete with an upstart FCS program that was on a 16 game FCS losing streak? I don't get it. We're good at marketing, I think. Between the 605 slogan, U., FearEd, and now this, we've really been hitting it out of the park. Thank god we've still got the Law School. That was close.

...Probably going to lose to UNC.

This is pure goodness! Thanks for the laughs while at the same time, the mantra "the truth hurts" certainly applies here!

Re: 2019 USD Defense

Then perhaps they should get rid of the, "We are South Dakota" thing. "We are Florida" might be a better fit for their team.

Stealing a line from Thumper... It should probably be #WeAreSouthAkota.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

I am wondering if they just know they cant compete so why waste their effort if they lose 90% of the recruits to us. Coaches probably have connections elsewhere.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

The odd thing to me is that USD just seems to ignore most in state recruits. I thought it was interesting looking through the rosters that only 6 of SDSU's 28 players from SD even had an offer from USD.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

Interesting USD has 12 players on the roster from Florida and 6 from South Dakota. A different recruiting process for sure!

They really only have 6 from South Dakota? That seems impossible.

[Project-Badass]

Re: 2019 USD Defense

That's definitely a concern. Did anyone read the SD player tracker that Hank put out for the Argus last week? The article tracks the participation and stats of all SD kids playing football at any college. Go look at the difference between SDSU and USD in South Dakota kids represented. And it's going to stay that way for a while. They can recruit good skill, but they can't recruit good bigs. And I think the type of kids they get down there are very "me first" in attitude. Watching them last year and this year, they're so undisciplined and individualistic, I think that's part of the problem. That's reflective of their coaching staff.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

Even though USD is clearly going through some troubles, I'd pick them to bounce back against a terrible UNC team. However, is UNC really worse than HBU? And UNC does have a great QB. And USD hasn't exactly been road warriors this decade...

I read that UNC's starting QB, Jacob Knipp, got injured in last week's game. So the Coyotes are likely to face UNC's backup. Other than sympathy for the challenged state of affairs in Greeley, Colorado, there won't be much room for the Coyotes to rationalize another loss. But USD probably should put in that call to Mr. Kimball's counterpart, just in case.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

Kimball could advise on how to turn the Dome into a large retention facility suitable for handling some gross waste of some sort.

Re: 2019 USD Defense

One thing that has been alluded to on the coyote board is that USD is recruiting almost entirely on talent and isn't as concerned about character and academics.

This will come back to bite them. Ask Scott Nagy.

One thing I'll never doubt about Stig. He runs a tight ship and I am appreciative of that.
