Mercy ,I haven't been so jacked for a season to start - I know crazy , I mean we don't have any more recruits yet -- BUT their there I know it - -I feel it.

Have got the start of the makings of a very good staff - -I'm just sure Tony gonna be here to go with our two other new additions.

So many names being thrown out now about recruits -making this old man's head spin , where as before it was just a bunch of crickets.

One thing is for sure evident all ready - -Les is working to shut the State down - really getting after these locals. - -Read just a couple of minutes ago that the KU staff was at Lawrence Free State today talking to Keenan Garber . and he is suppose to visit KU this weekend - would be great to get him to flip - -then there is Russell too.

Another recruit they offered is Valerian Agbaw 3 * Wide Receiver from Powder Springs Georgia.

This recruiting and where we are recruiting going to become ALOT more interesting. Hitting Louisiana - - - Alabama - - -Texas - -all Football recruiting hotbeds - -pull some guys from those area's - -plus working our home state a lot more -- things about to change boys. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Where is the high ankle? I've never understood that.

It’s basically a broken ankle if it’s a high ankle sprain. The bones separate and it takes time to heal.

Coach Self came out and said it wasn't a high ankle sprain today - -but really bad sprain - -hoping by Christmas maybe - -but for sure NOT a day to day thing. - -Y ou for sure can count him out of the Villanova game. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

YA I heard, but you listening and I had just said -who would of ever thought with Doke being out - -Vick not scoring - -so zero points from Doke And Vick - - KU getting out rebounded by 10 -and we end up better them by 25 with all that going against us - -just crazy. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

for my take in this games -- I think to me 3 things stuck out : - - #1 - - -Devon Dotson - -he was there when things we NOT going good , - -# 2 - - Marcus , the guy deserves some props - -ya sure has ugly shot - BUT on the defensive in the kid is a stud , quick hands pesky does a real good job - -got like 7-8 rebounds on top of that - -& #3 - - Seeing Quentin finally starting to show signs of coming out of this really bad slump.

The biggest concern of Course -is Doke - -they said high ankle sprain - -not good - -and we have Villanova coming in less then two weeks. - -we were getting our butt beat on the boards finally evened out some but mercy - -they were getting every dam rebound for awhile. - -ROCK CHALK AL DAY LONG BABY

I think it’s a great hire, I know they didn’t have a great season offensively compared to last season but they had to basically start over up front and still put up better numbers than we did playing in the best division in CFB. I’m being told that both Tony Hull and Clint Bowen are going to return as assistants, they both are currently out recruiting. I think everyone agrees Hull needs to stay and I know Bowen hasn’t done great at DC but I think he’s a solid Safeties coach. He had a much better year this season than in the past. I’m fine with him remaining here just not as an DC.

ya I don't have any problem with Clint stain on the defensive side somewhere. -- That defense kept us in a lot of games this year - - you didn't see any blowouts at all this year - - -they were put in some bad spots if people couldn't see improvement then they looking the wrong way.

Is he the DC - possibly not but he should be retain fir some capacity safety coach would be fine. and I think he will be retained in some way. He is out recruiting now with Hull is he was being let go - -I think he would already be gone. - - NOT STILL RECRUITING. - -rock chalk all day long baby

Well I could be reading way to much into the tea leaves but - - - -just found the statement kind of interesting making me think hmmmm, this would be very nice hope it turns out to be the case.

Reading the article today about the addition of our new adition ( Chip ) - while reading the article Coach made a statement that with our returners that we have coming back and the he said this " and with the pieces that we working on in recruiting " something about that just makes me wonder , hmm maybe - -just maybe Coach has some recruits already in the fold and just not announcing any commitments toil the signing date. Might have a few already in line that's coming. - -Cause he said with our returners plus what we have or working on he said the thought we had a chance to be ALOT better. - -would be sweet for sure. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Outstanding. Lindsey will go hog wild with pooka.

Lindsey I think is a great hire. - -he has run an offense while at Auburn where the team was the only team in the SEC that has ever ha an offense that ran the ball for over 3,000 yards AND passed for over 3,000 yards in the same season - -I think I like that very versitale -- I think I like that a lot. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Wofford is for real a pretty decent team --can't afford to just come out and go through the motions for 3/4 of the game and wait for Vick to pull us out every game. If we continue to come out and just sleep walk through 1/2 the game and then realize oh dam we need to get our act together - one of these times it's gonna jump up and bite us right square in the ass. Actual the really SOLID game we have played was against Michigan State. - -I mean Grimes has lost all his confidence - -totally lost

Now there will be some that about have kittens wondering what the hell I'm nuts - but I'm telling you - -too Doke really is pretty much a very limited player , I'm not a Doke basher , just a realist I like Doke BUT - friends have talk with me and totally agree.

There is a reason why Doke came back , might as well face it. - -There is a very good possibility that Doke will never fit in the NBA ever. - -The thing is and he can get away with it in College , For Doke he is a very limited offensive player - - if he can't dunk the ball - -he has nothing, he becomes more of a liability - -has no shot - - NONE what s ever - -his shot selection has be displayed in graphics during games - -not a knock - - just a fact. - -he is a bad fit for the modern NBA. - your modern bigs take the ball outside has some jumpers - outside, we have al seen how Doke is at trying to guard a big that can take it out on the outside. Doke is a big of the past in the NBA , he can go over sea's and make money -but s far as here , seriously doubt he can make it EVER

It's the same in college - again it a rim rattler or nothing - -you add that to his miserable free thro shooting -equals a liability on the offensive end -you add that to how we saw last year matching up when we play Villanova in the Tournament - bad combination.

It wouldn't totally shock me if he didn't come back yet again next year - -unless he just wants to go abroad and make some money -sure he can get a few rebounds - -but that isn't gonna happen as much in the NBA - -on top of that , not sure if he has the foot speed for the NBA. - -or be able to keep up with the quickness the speed for a game in the NBA - -being able to keep up - -just don't think he is facing a good pct. - -But even here in College - again if he isn't flushing the ball then he might as well be sitting - they said he is averaging 4 fouls a game -again I'm not trying to bash the guy - -just being real

Texas Hawk 10 said:

The key with Chip Lindsey is whether he's bringing his offense, or if he's running Les Miles offense. Supposedly he requested his release from Auburn because of Malzahn meddling too much.

I would imagine he wouldn't take this job to run the Miles offense so I'm hoping we'll see a similar style offense to what he ran at Auburn which was a very high powered spread offense.

Big piece of his offense is - that it varies a lot -- -both run and pass. He ran the air raid for sure but also ran a lot of the running game

So a big point is this if we land him is landing a big time QB that can feel the role - -got to get a duo threat QB - -that can run either - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Now things are rolling - true if it happens - - I will sure take him. This staff could be really salty - -things sound like they starting to take shape- - he could be putting a pretty good staff together , and this will be because of just the name of being Les Miles - -because of his background - I think I'm liking this - - -me like lol - now this isn't final but sure sounds like it's taking place - - Bring them on , let's do this. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

He has zero confidence. We need a couple blowout games where Self can play him 25-30 minutes

exactly the same thing I'm seeing- - his confidence in himself is SHOT right now - he is really pressing and mercy do we need him.

At this point and time - -Devon is playing so much better , maybe not is scoring , but just his all around game - -and like I've said from day one - - man this kid is quick - -end to end you have to love that. - -Hope Quentin can shake this soon. -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So again I will state and ask - -Is this really the # 2 team in the Country at this point? - before you answer try and look at this and answer without predice - -hell I would almost be willing to say Michigan AT THIS Point is better then us. - -Three blowout wins against ranked teams. - -we just aren't clicking
