And yes, Petrino listed as 6'0" is laughable.

Well according to this photo from last month... Not much

Ha, well let's remember the kid was probably 280 last year. Listed at 254 so he lost "some" weight if the 254 number can be believed.

Well I'm 6'3" 225 and I do not have the girth that he does... Judging by that pic I'm guessin he's pushing 265-270.

That's less than 280 though!

But at that size taking a shit might drop 10 lbs so maybe he is still a fatty.

Lol, no doubt. Unless he picks up a coke habit, I doubt there’s any way he gets down to even 230.

I can't help it. I just really hate myself.

If he starts and the offensive line doesn't improve he might drop some pounds running for his life.

I’m also a glutton for punishment.

Just had lunch with a fraternity brother of mine who informed me about this. Had a feeling that it was eventually going to happen.

Been a long time coming. He's done some good things, but he's mostly been incompetent. Not sure what this means for the Arena with Spear gone and Chuckles on his way out.

Are we going to get game by game preview threads this year?

Wasn't planning on it, but you never know. Definitely not worth it for the Fresno, Western New Mexico, and Florida games which will be blowouts one way or another. That and they're basically scrimmages that are 99.9% likely to not matter at all. Montana, Montana State, and EWU maybe just because I'm somewhat familiar with them but I just don't have time this year for every podunk team in the Big Sky. Stats and rosters are harder to find and aren't even accurate in some of the places they're posted.

Might do score predictions and some post-game analysis but I'll probably just post it in this thread.

 

[Cave_Johnson]

You know what? Fuck it. I'll do a game by game predictions thread because I've already looked into it a bit. Probably going to be off by a lot because FCS preseason rankings and predictions are a much bigger shit show than the FBS rankings.

Now that's the fucking spirit!! They always provide such a great weekly read

Just an update on the men's basketball team.

They open the season tonight against UC Irvine. 14.5 point dogs there which makes sense because Idaho lost an exhibition game to LCSC last week.

They're returning exactly 1 guy who has an NCAA D1 start and that's Trevon Allen. He has one NCAA start. Nate Sherwood is out for the year with some sort of weird arthritis thing. Dude's never gonna play again.

Over/under for their wins this season is probably somewhere around 7 and that's just because they play 3 schools that Moscow High could probably compete with. Then you'll have a few other dogshit teams floating around the Big Sky they'll be able to steal some wins from.

Women's team should win the league though, so there's that.

Wow losing Sherwood hurts. Didn't hear about that.

LOL. Looking back on this thread and this part of this post in particular.

They actually lost to one of those schools that I said Moscow High could probably beat. 77-73 L to Northwest Nazarene in Boise. Guess they couldn't get over NNU's home field advantage.

I have no doubt this team is worse than ISU and BSU so they just need to go lose to College of Idaho now to prove they're the worst basketball team in the state.

Watched them against WSU two nights ago and they were just sloppy as fuck. Tons of dumbass turnovers. There's some good talent but they just don't play well as a team. Game was only relatively close at half time because WSU also sucks. 7 wins sounds about right.

It's been almost 20 years since both the men's basketball and football teams were this fucking bad.
