October 18, 201213 yr Do the private jets belong to Mr. Gorman? Always convenient to have private jets at your disposal with the "take on" salad from your wife's kitchen. Meant Corman.
October 18, 201213 yr Loved it, I just wonder how long Coach will want to live the recruiting lifestyle, especially if he wins another title or two. Still gotta enjoy this amazing ride. Almost seemed like he was a little bothered by the whole thing, didn't it? Can't blame him though I guess. He probably won't be thrilled about how that part looked. "Coach keeps it real" is a very fitting explanation of how Coach Cal probably handles business.
October 18, 201213 yr You clearly missed the point of the entire episode. He lives maybe 25% of the "recruiting lifestyle" facing every other coach in the game. They are after fewer targets than anyone in the country, and the brand sells itself. He's "babysitting" as he said in the show... He said they basically target like 15-16 guys, right? What would you say is the average for a top-tier BCS program? And what would you guess for all BCS programs? I'm just wondering for comparison.

I'm just wondering for comparison. Each situation is different obviously when you consider scholarships available that year and what the roster needs. The biggest difference is scouting and evaluating. Cal is sorting through 15 or 16 of the top 25 players. There isn't a whole lot of actual work involved there. It is obvious those guys are good after seeing them play for 2 minutes...

Did you see what he said today, said he walked in the door last night and his wife said "What do you mean you don't like Big Blue Madness?" He apologized today and said it's the scrimmage that he doesn't like because he's nervous about one of his guys getting hurt.

He apologized today and said it's the scrimmage that he doesn't like because he's nervous about one of his guys getting hurt. Funny his wife gave him grief for it. I knew that he would catch some kind of heat for his comment about Big Blue Madness. Any rational fan knew why he said what he said and what he meant, problem is we have a lot of irrational fans in the BBN.
October 19, 201213 yr Today ESPNU 6:30PM Well I missed it again. But it's on tomorrow night on ESPNU at 5:30 PM
October 19, 201213 yr Cal doesn't like BBM? :scared: BUT, I can see it from that side if this is true, at times you do stuff you really don't want to do because you are doing it as others like or love it. Next show shows the team in classes, and talks about the GPA from last years team, Maybe Bobby Knight should watch next week?

Next show shows the team in classes, and talks about the GPA from last years team, Maybe Bobby Knight should watch next week? We discussed that earlier in the thread, Cal apologized the next day saying it wasn't that he didn't like BBM, he doesn't like the scrimmage said it makes him really nervous about someone getting hurt.
October 24, 201213 yr I'm looking forward to tonight's new episode. I might go back and watch last week's again before it.
