Hi, All –

I recently wrote this two-part series about another coach/school that had a record-setting football losing streak & I thought it might be interesting reading for some of you:

Speaking of Pat Ryan he is finally showing his age based on the on field appearance and commentary. I can see why Jr took the lead on all the construction.

I believe this was his vanity project and it is his money so I am glad he got what he wanted.

On a football note the next 3 games are winnable before a trip to Autzen. Before the season I would’ve NEVER expect 9-3 is a possibility, but now it is a not unreasonable goal. Maureen wants to sneak into the playoffs, but I think that is only with 10-2 and a win at Autzen. That also assumes tOSU and Indiana play for the B1G title.
