I would be pretty worried about Richt at Miami, but I'm not sure he will be there for a very long time, I could be wrong, but he was already considering not coaching at all a few days ago.

Doesn't look like a mullet in the video, not that there's anything wrong with a mullet. Looks like our QB may get more time before being mauled, based purely on past Memphis O line stats. Let's hope that is the case.
I was on the hill for that one with a 750 of Bacardi Limon. It was awesome.
He's one missed barber appointment from a full blown mullet.

I have nothing bad to say about Loeffler. Yeah, at times I popped off frustrated at this or that play call, but you are going to get that with literally any OC.
Yes, he could have done a better job tailoring his offense to what our athletes could do. And I won't apologize for my frustration at seeing the BS deep bomb after a turnover that was simply too predictable to be worth it.
But at the end of the season, there are a ton of points left on the field because of poor throws, or simply missed reads.
If we looked back at all the game film, I'd bet you'd find 2 TDs missed per game.
Not to say Brewer or Motley or the O-Line are bad, just that they all had bad moments that derailed a sure TD play that Loeffler called.
IMO, the real tragedy is that Beamer didn't make the change 2 to 3 years earlier. I think if we had a competent OC before the recruiting misses and injuries started piling on, we would have weathered those injuries better, and maybe not have missed as much on the recruiting trail.
I think Loeffler's offensive strategies could pay off huge at a blue-chip school that regularly pulls in great recruits and is willing to give him a few seasons to get the O going.
#sauces told me that UVa sent a delegation down to Georgia to negotiate with Richt.

#sauces: mother's 2nd cousin's granddaughter's boyfriend's dad said (actually, a guy who has a friend who is a sports agent and is friends with Sanford's agent, but it might as well be the former)
apparently LOLUVa had a handshake deal with Mark Sanford (Notre Dame OC) a couple games before the end of the season. Then when it was apparent that Richt would become available, they told Sanford they needed to get back to him. Sanford told them to screw themselves and Richt chose Miami.
It's like reverse jeff jagodzinski situation.
Then there was this:
Memphis reportedly offering Justin Fuente even more than Houston's $3 million Tom Herman offer
That push for 8 yards against UVA should be 1 million points.
I think this statistic is useful, but has major caveats. For example, compare Coleman with McMillan. How many times have we seen Coleman go down on first contact in the backfield, compared to McMillan always able to turn a negative into a positive.
their Adjust line rate is 46th. I dont think their Oline is ranked 46th. They are ranked way better than we are in almost every other category. Misread, but still didnt merit that drastic of an overall line difference.
but i will take a loss if i am incorrect in reading this. And i am.
Reading all these comments makes me wonder how many Hokie fans we have here in SC. There must be DOZENS of us!
So ALR(ALY) is not a function of all the other categories.
The Sack rates were ridiculously better for Memphis, something I would enjoy seeing less of at tech.

Yes, that's adjusted line rate. Which, is complicated, but can be simplified as follows (I think):
Take all RB rushes in a game, for each, the O-line will get a certain percentage of the yards attributed to them:
Loss of yards: 120%
0-4 yards: 100%
5-10 yards: 50%
11+ yards: 0%
Total up all the yardage, then Adjust based on opponent defense.
So, let's say a RB runs for 5 plays as follows: +2, +6, -3, +25, +5 = 35 yards for RB
O-line gets:
+2: 2*(100%) = 2
+6: 4*(100%)+2*(50%) = 5
-3: -3*(120%) = -3.6
+25: 4*(100%)+6*(50%)+15*(0%) = 7
+5: 4*(100%)+1*(50%) = 4.5
Thus, the O-line was responsible for 14.9 yards, which would be adjusted based on opponent.
I'm actually a huge Spurrier fan, and always will be. People just need to understand that he isn't wired like a lot of coaches are and that's one of things I love most about him.
He tells you how it is, whether you like it or not. And who cares if he has a big ego? Meyer, Saban, Stoops...they all have big egos. Winning championships will do that to you.
VT 2014 rankings:

Adj. Sack Rate - 102
VT 2015:
Opportunity - 74

Memphis 2014 rankings:

Memphis 2015 rankings:

Note: only the Adj. sack rate is adjusted for opponent.
Spurrier is like that rich, successful, sleazy uncle that is always telling awkward and inappropriate jokes but when he says them about people you don't like you secretly find him funny.
South Carolina football - 3-9 season over, still looking for a Head Coach
Virginia Tech football - 6-6, awaiting bowl destination, secured top young coach available
Yeah, the farewell tour really ruins a season....
UNC also happens to upset Clemson, which is more likely, 2 ACC teams in the playoff or no ACC teams in the playoff?
no ACC teams in the playoff
with 4 spots and 5 P5 conferences I think the likelihood of any league getting two teams in the playoff is really really low. If any league does it, it'll be the SEC (perception is strong)
