But, it made this board a lot more interesting over the last few weeks, and it probably drove up page hits multi-fold. So, I am glad he passed along the second-hand information, and that he had the balls to make a prediction from it. Keep up the good work, @Fryowa !

Other than that you believed the information you were fed and were 93% wrong in your prediction.

I'm glad, not sure a coaching change is what the team needs. They were SO close this year and I do like the improvements they made on the offensive side of the ball.

Just talked to a buddy, and is friends with the Luke Brewer, the tight end commit from Norwalk, and allegedly KF told he and his family he anticipates being there "at least for the next couple of years" which would be the end of his contract in 2027. Granted it could be a recruiting speech, but I don't see KF going into a kid's home and lying to him or his family.
