Another banger, Ben. Your even keeled analysis is extra appreciated when things get crazy.

I will say when you read the things said about coaches online and hear the things people say to them when they lose…I don’t begrudge any coaches for not spending a ton of time in the community. The dynamics of college coaches and fans are weird.

They are welcomed into the fold as long as they are winning. If not, then the program will rally to pay you to go away. So I don’t harbor any ill will towards coaches who don’t want to mingle much.

Longtime reader. Thank You for writing on SS. Grew up in SC. Entire family 2 generations went to PSU. Paterno loyalists probably to a fault. I liked JF but agree it was time. The Adidas rumors are troubling. Who is your best guess as to who they may go after? Or who would Adidas approve of 🫣
