I hope we can stop discussing Cubit getting the Illinois job full time now.

 

I wanted Mike Leach from day one. He probably has a good harem built in Pullman at this time that Champaign can't top.

Yes master.

No reason to be rude. Was just commenting on how lucky your school was. They deserved to lose.

Yeah. I was the rude one.

I'm not sure bad coaching by the opponents files it into deserving to lose. It wasn't the refs.

You want to explain what happened there? They reviewed a penalty, but didn't review the guy whose knee is clearly down? WOOOWW

ACC refs

Yeah. I don't see any similarities in the MSU loss and this win. I thought going for the win was the right move for Minn the way their offense was rolling and the defense finally made a play.

 

I stayed away from everything college football for a few days after the MSU loss so I don't know if any Michigan fans came on here to say MSU didn't deserve it. It was a fluke but the lack of execution by Michigan lost it. It was their own fault. Dropped 1st down passes, etc.

Technically they could have throw a flag on the offsides by the Michigan line but Minny would have still f***ed it up.

ACC refs also gave Duke three questionable PI calls on final drive and ruled a TD for the Duke QB when there was no way he got in. Of course for some reason there wasn't a camera angle from down the goal line so the play stood. Time would've ran out before the next snap.

 

College officiating is terrible.

I sure hope Paul Rhoads didn't save his job last night, but how bad is Texas? Woof

As opposed to the lack of execution by Minnesota? I'm not saying it's the exact same thing, but it's similar in that one team had the game won and blew it based on a surprising series of events. Just like Michigan blew the game with MSU doing little to win it themselves, Minnesota's mistakes only required one goal line stop by Michigan's defense.

Why? Because they stopped Minnesota from scoring on a do or die play? Or because they took the lead with a backup QB? And converting a 2 point conversion that proved to be the difference. I don't particularly like Michigan but I'm not sure how they deserved to lose.

Yeah, apparently moving forward at the snap is no longer an illegal motion penalty. Lost track of how many times that has been missed.

 

That, and every single touch is now pass interference, offense and defense both.

Yep. One game suspension for OVI.

Also took away his scholarship. Thats pretty big.

Does he suddenly have to pay out-of-state tuition for a semester? That would suck big time for him.

Yes. If its only for a semester its about 14k, if its for year its almost 30. Yikes. Plus the fees and court costs and lawyer fees. Expensive mistake.

 

s*** with books and everything else a year is over 40k? f***

So if he declares for the NFL draft there is no further punishment other than the one game suspension as I assume whenever a player declares they lose their scholarship anyway. He can also earn it back....whatever that means.

Ohio State clarifies Urban Meyer loss of scholarship comment from earlier, saying JT Barrett will forfeit "Summer aid" benefit for 2016.

 

So he has to pay for summer school classes if he attends?

Checking, I believe its the room and board, food stipend for the summer which is during the term.

 

Oh and they all attend summer school, its the only way to make up the credits to graduate on time. These guys dont take 22 hours during the season.

 

unrelated: I took summer classes every year, it was my favorite time of the year.

Or he can choose to not attend summer classes and lose nothing.

 

i saw on twitter that the entire officiating crew from Miami/Duke was suspended. They need to just centralize the replay call to the Conference ref office like the NFL lets new york make the replay calls. That was an absolute travesty

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 2, 2015 -> 11:44 AM)

If he declares for the draft what does he lose? He is a red shirt sophomore.

 

Meyer also said he could earn it back which I assume is no great feat to accomplish.

 

Can he also transfer and not have to sit out?

So you are saying he should declare or transfer right now instead of waiting one game until he can play again?

More likely he earns that stipend back before then.

Yes, the travesty was how the refs were able to get Duke the lead on the final drive. Also the penalties they called on Miami throughout. Almost as if they were looking for a reason to throw the flag before each snap.
