lol @ the absurdity of challenging me on the F+ system. After the authors of the system, I may be the most knowledgeable person on the planet of how it works. But I digress.

ND had a 1.90ish F+ after beating indiana in one sided fashion (a team F+ really respected). Then ND proceeded to play 3 more playofff games against top 10 teams and their F+ didn't budge. F+ (and even Vegas) had OSU winning in dominant fashion and that is exactly what happened.

F+ provides an apples to apples comparison of teams based on their production in their respective season regardless of the quality of teams they played or how many games they played in their season. More games just means more data with which to more accurately gauge a quality of team.

MF took ND to a level BK could never get to after 10+ years of trying. Moreover, MF bested BKs best season in 2023 (last year) .. 2024 was another step forward.

I am a pretty big BK fan but after MFs last two seasons, I don't think there's a coach in college football i'd rather have right now given MFs youth and production so far with only 3 years of experience.

For the love of God, the recruiting has GOT TO GET BETTER though.

Tell me without telling me that you have no first-hand knowledge of life on the Navajo Reservation. It was an adventure of a lifetime for this small-town Hoosier gal!

Of course, the Irish women basketball will be fine, it's not like they were caught up in some cheating scandal.
Have a good evening, Ivan.

Honestly, the reason he faltered in year 3 was due to Willingham's poor recruiting. Ty Willingham was fired in year 3 due to the lack of recruiting. Weis was forced to play a lot of true freshman and sophomores in 2007. I gave Weis a pass that year, but in the end he disappointed and wasn't the answer either.

Ha, yes. Teachers are always outnumbered. You poor thing.

Anyway, it looks like Olivia is going to TCU, so good luck to her. And I am sure the ND women's basketball team will be just fine.
