Reflecting on the Tenure and Legacy of Dave Doeren Dave Doeren was hired in 2012 to do a job that just doesn't exist in 2026. I wrote about the work he did, the way the game changed, a polarizing tenure, and a legacy that should not be. trinityroadtimes.com/p/refle…

Boo Corrigan seems to be a quiet, behind the scenes kind of guy, but the absolute silence after the Dave Doeren firing is weird, even for him.

And this wasn’t going enough for NC State… 98 wins, most in program history. There’s no guarantee the next HC will be better, remember that.

This business is unforgiving. Dave gave everything to NC State, including donating $1 million+ to fund OnePack Empowered, a college program for neurodivergent students—inspired by their son, Jacob.

My line: 8 wins. Most of this fan base can live with that. 7 splits the room. What's your number? And which game on the back half worries you most?

24-team @CFBPlayoff reax: --It enhances conference races. Sure, a team can clinch in mid-November but the days of Michigan-Ohio State being for the Big 10 title were damn exciting. That last happened 20 years ago. Those days return. --A 24-team field lessens the influence of the selection committee. Boiling it down to simplest element -- if you're ranked, you're in. (With exceptions, of course) The committee is essentially left to seed. --More on-campus playoff games. Yes, please. --There will be 50 teams (at least) in competition for the CFP each Nov. 1. That will drive interest, ratings and attendance. --The regular-season won't be impacted negatively. We've been hearing that refrain since the BCS. Texas-Oklahoma, Michigan-Ohio State, Auburn-Alabama, are still/will still be huge. So will Alabama-Georgia, BYU-Utah, Alabama-Tennessee, Notre Dame-Miami. Think of the interest at Duke, Arizona, Oklahoma State, Minnesota right now if a 24-team field existed. --To that point, the requirement for each of the P4 to play 10 P4 games will mean MORE of those types of games. The system now can support 9-3, even 8-4 teams. That's the reason SEC coaches reluctantly added a ninth conference game. This is their vision to (further) dominate the bracket realized. --The SEC and Big Ten will probably continue to get 75% of the field in some years (18 total). That's sort of the case now. --I think we all agree there are too many bowls. Bowl season will survive. A 24-team playoff will no doubt cull the herd. But what would you rather see, the Pop Tarts Bowl or the same matchup in a first-round game in the CFP with a national title at stake? --What's wrong with the odds doubling of say, Western Kentucky, hanging a "College Football Playoff first-round" banner in its practice facility? That's a good thing. -30-

ESPN, according to a reporter employed by ESPN, has bought the expanded 24 team playoff field & next season the college football playoff will expand to 24 teams & ESPN will have the exclusive rights. Smart move by ESPN. This would mean conference title games will be eliminated.

This is no way to sugarcoat this.. This is an absolute embarrassing showing by the residents of St Pete/Tampa tonight. Your team is a group of overachievers and you have thousands of empty seats. Absolutely pathetic! Support the @RaysBaseball ‼️ 📸 @EvanRobertsWFAN
