AFCA Convention Ends Today. Any News? - cardcrimson - 01-11-2022

The AFCA (American Football Coaches Association) Convention ends today. There was a lot of conjecture earlier that this is where head coaches find assistants and upgrade their staffs. Any news of our guys getting poached? How about new hires for us?

No news is bad news.

There's a John McEnroe quote just waiting as a reply.

I can. But I wasn't in this case. . . .

Agree with Phogge. No news is indeed bad news.

"No changes needed. We are fine" 

Fake David Shaw, per Gail


"We were four plays away" 

The real David Shaw after getting blown out by Cal.

HAHA

Bad news in two different ways.

It means that Shaw is standing pat on his coaching staff
It also means that nobody else wants any of his coaching staff

Fried, maybe.  Scrambled, for sure.  Soft-boiled, perhaps.  None poached.

Over-easy seems about right.

On another front, no agreement on changing the 4 game playoff format. According to Bowlsby, they didn’t come close.  So, we can whine another few years about who is in.  And we can bet the PAC-12 will be left out, unless SC rises. Which bothers me not a bit. (Sure as hell don’t want to see SC in final four).  

It would bother me if Stanford was in contention.  But that shipped sailed, was sunk and is somewhere at the bottom of the ocean floor.  Maybe Cameron can find it…….

Well, if the 4 plays were all Stanford touchdowns……. :)

We still would have lost. . . .

"Maybe Cameron can find it……." Great line.

Robert Ballard found it. Cameron made the movie.

I have mixed feelings about this.  Have we lost a good coach or do we wish him similar success in his new job?  This is a strength and conditioning coach, right?

S&C assistant leaving after just one year on the job. This is the third straight year that has happened.

The good ones are getting poached.

Talk about burying the lead.  The fact that a sports performance coach was poached implies that there was sports performance last year.  That would be news to me.

Frankly stunning news, and indicative how bad things have become. Sarcasm from BC . . . .

The only news today that is worth worrying about is that Putin is threatening to send troops to Cuba. What’s next, commandos hitting the beach in Key West?

I’m ready. When the North Korean paratroopers jump on the Point Reyes Peninsula you all can rally. I can’t fire six rifles at once.

Hopefully the wind will alter their jump to the point where they end up landing in the Castro or Antioch, the NK's will never be the same!
