NC State: Bye Chuck!

[Double Down]

I think Navy is a better football job than Duke. Is that crazy?

It might be. But it's still a heck of a lot easier to recruit at Duke than it is at Navy.

If a recruit wants to go to Duke, he has to:

1. Be in the top 10 to 15 percent of his class
2. Score somewhere around 1450 on your SATs (or get the admissions dept to pull some strings).
3. Be willing to play for the worst FB program in the ACC.

If a recruit wants to go to Navy, he has to:

1. Score around 1500 on the SATs. (No strings pulled by admissions either.)
2. Be in the top two percent of his high school class.
3. Get nominated by a congressman or the vice president. (Can't get into school without one.)
4. Be willing to serve five years in the military after graduation.
5. Be willing to die for his country.
6. Agree not to have sex with female midshipmen. (Will get you throw out of school.)
7. Get up every day around 5:30 a.m.

If I were a coach, and I was confident in my abilities, I take the Duke job over the Navy job in a heartbeat.

At Duke you have to play against ACC teams all year. Navy can win 8-9 games each season playing Rice, Stanford, Army, Air Force, etc.

And at Navy, you have to be willing to lose to Notre Dame every year.

You also have to be willing to run the ball on every play.

Good thread title.

It was Lacy Underall's line to the stuffed-shirt punk lawyer at the yacht club in "Caddyshack."

i'm not quite sure here... which is supposed to be tougher -- the acc or rice, stanford, army, air force, etc?

Chuck has landed at Florida State as "executive head coach and linebackers coach."

 

[Chuck~Taylor]

I think I'm going to do great over there. Yeah, executive head coach sounds a little different, but I'll take it. Someone get me a lozenge.

He just needs to watch out for eBay, which is what got Jeff Bowden fired.

No he needs to watch out for <b>THE</b> eBay

 

[2muchcoffeeman]

He just needs to watch out for eBay, which is what got Jeff Bowden fired.

The fact that the FSU offense was poorly designed, poorly planned and never fully prepared each weekend evidently had nothing to do with it.

That stuff was Chris Rix's fault.
