-I was way out in front on Mario Cristobal, and the guy can coach, but yeah.....that Oregon gig is not a good fit. He'd kill it in the southeast, but I don't see that working out. Feels like Oregon settled with the signing day quickly approaching.
-Ladies, if you've been around me and you want your men to smell that same way, here's the fragrance you're wondering about....queso.
-A work trip right before the holidays sucks. Coming back from said trip to a sick family sucks worse. We just can't have a completely healthy holiday break.

-Along with coaching carousels and TV ratings, the third "outside the game" aspect of sports I'm always fascinated by is bowl game attendance, particularly how well a school does selling their ticket allotment.

-Emmett Otter's Jug-Band Christmas.
-Happy Holidays.
