Their offense wasn't impacted because they are still running his offense, albeit without him to make calls. Their offense is full of talent, like Deshaun Watson, that were recruited by Morris. Clemson's offense is 100% the result of Chad Morris and the appeal of his offense to recruits.

Huge body of bait, if it stays inshore, y'all will get a shot.

this video doesnt mention a location, but i'd bet money its somewhere between deal and sea girt:

And because i named dropped Raritan bay, this drone video has set the internet on fire (language in video is NSFW). None of these fish have started to migrate yet...

Yep.... I hit one blitz of 2-4 pound blues as a kid with metal near the Boiler south of Oregon Inlet. At some point I'd love to get into the big ones off the beach. I heard there were more than many ever remembered the first week of May this past spring, however I had already booked time to head south for king mack live baiting around Wilmington.

The last couple of falls have been terrible for the Maryland run. I hope this year turns around.

Oregon went to on to win the PAC-12 and play in the National Championship two years after Chip Kelly left. So, by that reasoning, I guess Chip Kelly isn't a very good NCAA coach.

No, I definitely think he's a great coach. I'm just saying their offense wasn't impacted in nearly the same way as OSU's this year with Herman leaving. OSU has basically out-talented the competition most of this year. They have looked pretty inept on offense at times, especially with Jones at QB. Herman brought that offense to another level and made Jones look a lot better than I think he is.

I still think Morris would be a very good hire. The one thing I would really like about Morris is the potential for him to poach away Jeff Scott from Clemson. Talk about an all-star offensive/recruiting cast.

So general rule of thumb:
Big Bass move earliest. The big bass are leaving the NJ coast today(total guess, but i tend to be pretty accurate). What will follow is waves and waves of 24 to 28" fish. Those fish will be there until january in varying concentrations. Word on the street is Raritan bay is loaded to the brim with these fish right now.

Plugs are good if the bait is adult bunker. In the fall run, shads and metal are better if you end up with rainfish, peanuts or snad-eels in front of you. When i think plug fishing i think mid to late may, but it can be done in the fall too.

All out blitzes are pretty rare to stumble on unless you know the area or are well connected in texting networks. Even us locals salivate and get jealous. Its fun when you end up in one though...

Les is 62, so you have to wonder how many more years he's going to want to coach.

Les Miles may be 62, I think he's got the energy to keep at it another 5-7 years. Hell, the guy looks and acts younger than me, at 38. Maybe I should start eating more grass...

How many times have we discussed on this board how the next coach needs to be younger and re-energize this program/boost recruiting?

Regardless of age, I don't think there's any way that a coach with his pedigree could do anything but reinvigorate recruiting here.

I think it would definitely be a huge splash, but realistically, we're going to be doing this again in 3-5 years.

Unfortunately, this is the new reality of college football. No matter who Whit hires, we can expect to be going through this process in 4-8 years. (Unless it's Bud, and he's successful. I can't imagine him leaving after this long here, and he's probably got another 10-15 years until he's ready to hang it up). Frank has definitely spoiled us with his loyalty to the program.

I just want to get one off the beach with a plug. Even a short. I have been catching them off the bridge for years.... managed some nice ones on bait in the surf. Never managed a plug fish. Last trip to IBSP (give or take around 2010) I got one thump on a black Bomber A at night. That has been it.

How so? - This year, UNC will have a to win two more games (either VT or NCSU, and Clemson) to get to a NY6 bowl. That doesn't seem very improbable.

Edit: UNC could also be in the ACCCG without a win over VT or NCSU, if Pitt loses to either Louisville or Miami. I would guess using the amazing Joelestra probability analysis, that Fedora has somewhere around 30-35% chance to make a NY6 bowl this year.

Also, this photo has been passed around. Full grown adult bunker on left, 20+ bass on right:
