  1. Somebody needs to light a fire under Max Rice. Guard play is going to be important come conference time.
  2. Cupboard may not be completely bare. Freshman QB Devon Dampier and Hon. AA running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt have commited to not making any decisions til a new coach is hired. Given the quality of the hire, maybe we get lucky. Significant losses on the O-Line however, though they could be recruited back. OC just took the head job at Louisiana-Monroe.
  3. Okay, my ESPN app just went off, Thamel now saying it's a five-year deal. Again, this is the internet....
  4. Easy Swedish, I'm going to hold off celebrating til I see Frank's PR Release on GoLobos....
  5. At least I'm not standing on the General Aviation flightline at the Sunport, Natty!
  6. I wasn't going to drive up for the UCSB game tomorrow night, but halftime might be interesting. Noah reposted Pete Thamel @PeteThamel· 16m Source: This deal has been finalized. Quote Pete Thamel @PeteThamel · 8h Sources: New Mexico is targeting Bronco Mendenhall, the former coach at Virginia and BYU, as the school’s next head coach. Mendenhall went to 11-straight bowls at BYU and led Virginia to the Orange Bowl in 2019. Reminder: This is the Internet, where you can't trust anything for at least 12 hours after it happens. Be warned!
  7. What I didn't add is that this aircraft flew from Albuquerque to Vegas a couple days ago, presumably carrying Eddie Nunez to attend Lobo legend Terance Mathis' entry into the College Football News Hall of Fame (an actual big deal). Flew out of Vegas to Kalispell about the time the Internet heated up.
  8. Newest fascination, plane-watching! This flight, a private Lear from Kalispell to ABQ in the air now. Some family named Mendenhall lives in Kalispell. Hmmmm? https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/N876SF/history/20231205/2330Z/KGPI/KABQ
  9. I will admit to being old enough to remember that line.
  10. half, maybe none of the rumored candidates wanted the job? Not smackin' you, just saying it's a possibility.
  11. Brew, first thing tomorrow morning call the Wyo AD and ask what effect an extra 1 mil has on the operational budget. Your Leg has been good to you in capital improvements, but Wyo is not flush with cash.
  12. If not Liberty it would have been Smoo, and frankly, they didn't set the world on fire either. Clocked by OU and TCU, then won out over an American Conference schedule that isn't anymore impressive than CUSA. In any event, irregardless of the G5 rep, Oregon's winning that game, even with a backup QB.
  13. Not as bad as it looks for OSU at least. They have previously contracted games against Idaho State and Purdue. Will have to find a replacement for Boise in their OOC games. Wazoo is worse off. They were already scheduled to play Joser and the Aztecs in the OOC as well as Portland State and Udub. I'm guessing Washington will buy that game out. Cougars will be scrambling. https://fbschedules.com/future-college-football-schedules/
  14. Umm, every team in the conference plays one or more of "little Sisters of the Poor". This gives you a chance to replace one of those games with someone who has a pulse.
  15. Little arrogant wasn't he? Yes, the SEC offers up the best college football in the land, but dude! Show some humility. For the record, I leave FSU out. Without a QB they get, as mentioned above, abused by clowns. Football is entertainment and the Seminoles getting boatraced isn't going to be that entertaining.
  16. House cracks me up. Asked about the foul count in the postgame presser, "No, no, I can't talk about the refs, I can't." Oh but if you could, Jaelen.
  17. Garbage time for the 'Bo's. Scary thing is, the guys on court are good too.
  18. OKay, I called a big win, but...wow. Lobos by 36 early second half.
  19. Sorry, jd, Lobos have discovered defense this year.
  20. You'll look at the boxscore after the game and say NMSU got homered on the foul count. Really isn't the case, they just can't stay in front of the Lobo guards and wave as they get beat.
  21. Now that we've got that footbaw thing out of the way...
  22. Onto Saturday night and a fairly interesting slate: San Jose at the Montana Grizz. Why? Also, why is Montana a favorite? Edit: (as Geoff Grammar would say "Welp.") CSU-Wahington in Vegas. Nice matchup for the Rams. Aggies vs Lobos in the Pit. The Little Sisters are struggling during their rebuild (understandable) but it's Aggies Lobos, expect the unexpected. I'll risk the Wrath of Jobu and say UNM by a bunch. House is back, Donovan Dent hampered by back spasms on Wednesday is an unknown. UC Irvine At the Utags. On paper, a pretty good matchup. Last game of the night, Loyola Marymount at Nevada. Don't know much about LMU, Nevada at home is usually a safe bet.
  23. yeah, don't need the buy for hoops, will take an extra decent opponent on the sched.
