    149. Too cheap to pay for sideline seats.

    If you were a fan of some acc team, it would be so much cheaper. Did you see the comparison in conference championship game prices? We are basically drinking scotch when everyone else is drinking fireball.

    I have to work the weekend or I’d think about it. Florida bowl games aren’t the worst

    Derek Mason is taking the MTSU job. Guess we’re stuck with Banks.

    Damn he was supposed to be our new DC.

    Mason is the one who used a (bad) woman kicker to try to save his job. Weak

    Mason's problem was he went to coach at Vandy.

    Maybe he made some good money, but it hurt his coaching cred. (But then again, it was fricking Vandy.)

    We'll see how well he does at MTSU.

    I thought he fielded some competitive teams at Vandy. But I don't pay much attention to Vandy.

    Me either.

    IIRC, he rode the coattails of Franklin's recruits in year one (especially) defense. I think his best record was 6-7?

    And we continued to suck during his tenure.

    Man I completely forgot about this. That shows how transformative the whole thing was I guess.

    So did Boo Carter visit Colorado just to work on Seaton, and is now reeling him in?

    I’m unclear on what Mason did that makes people believe he’s anything special.

    Let me fuel any residule BVS symptoms you may have.

    Or Boo is decommiting and they are both going to Colorado?

    Mason took vandy to 2 bowl games, only other coach to go to more than 1 with them was Franklin. Their defenses were feisty, and kept them in games. They beat Georgia on the road. The administration there did him 0 favors while he was there, and then Clark Lea comes and they give the 300mil upgrade deal. We all know what he helped build at Stanford. I don’t think he was great after vandy though so he might suck now who knows.

    Seems like when he was at Vandy he had a reputation for playing good defense against UT but would have to google what years and the accuracy.

    If he came to UT, I'd be pushing his Stanford time and blaming Vandy for the bad stuff.

    He's not, so I (and suspect most of us) don't care.
    I hope he does good at MTSU, just because I had a favorite aunt go there.

    Hell, it seemed like everybody had a reputation for playing good defense against UT back then.

    (Note: I said "seemed" before y'all come at me with stats proving differently.)
