2015 started with:

4down20 hasn't threaten to leave.
BamaTee hasn't accused a mod of favoritism.
Charlie 42 hasn't had a meltdown.
No one has been locked in the Toilet Bowl.
Michigan and Ohio State fans are getting along for the most part.
Dogs and cats are living together.

Good grief someone come up with a good troll thread for Bama, Texas or Nebraska and lets get things stirred up.

2016:

Charlie and Bama Tee never returned the Authority got the boot but rumors of his sneaking back in crop up occasionally. Hammer has declared war on the B1G and OU posters are starting to realize they really are Texas' bitch. Harbaugh has turned into a grade A creeper and knocking on the door of being a petiphile.

What do you guys have to add?

Oh and Missouri wins the award for most disfunctional university and the PC cry baby award for 2015.

It's sho' headed that way. 2-6 in their last 8 Iron Bowls. 3-8 vs Les Miles. 28-40-1 vs Bama since the series resumed. 20-21-1 all-time vs Vandy including a current two game losing streak. 14-17 all-time vs Tulane. They already qualify as a basketball school.

My school is ranked somewhere in the 50 in recruiting and the basketball team would kill to see a similar ranking.

This offseason has sucked

83 days until the spring game.

Hopes for the off-season:
1) no stupid off the field stuff
2) Urban and Warriner find a way to modernize the passing game so they don't get the QB killed
3) no stupid off the field stuff
4) no injuries during winter conditioning or spring practice
5) no stupid off the field stuff
6) strong finish to recruiting, top 5 class with a DT
7) no stupid off the field stuff

He's already come out and said he wants JT throwing the ball 30+ times a game this coming season, thankfully.

Wanting and doing aren't the same thing. He said the same thing last year and the offense pretty much sucked until they starting running zone read and JT carrying the ball 15 times a game.

I don't recall him saying anything like this last season.

Urban draws from many places but one of his favorite sources is Chip Kelly. They met after the championship and compared notes. Chip told him that running the quarterback, in the long run, wasn't a great plan because of the risk of injury (which Urban knew all too well from JT's broken leg in the last game of the regular season).

Running the power spread, there has to be a constraint to the defense to keep from keying on the tailback. It's either the zone read/QB option or the pass. This is what they were trying to accomplish with Cardale at QB with nearly disastrous results. As soon as JT took over again, they started running the zone read and the offense began to click (minus the MSU game, don't get me started).

They are looking other programs, notably the "air raid" type offense run by Texas Tech, Baylor, TCU, etc for clues on how to keep the qb safe(r).

Not sure this information has been "published" anywhere, but it is accurate.

I don't doubt that it is. I'm just saying that based off of what he said, we'll be seeing more passing this year.

Let's hope so.

Having Brown back along with a healthy Gibson and a couple of freshman (Mack, Victor) who could make an impact will hopefully help as well.
