Interesting video..thanks for posting JZ.
Two of the most interesting quotes:
"...(schedule) is set up to get an at large position" -- KD
I like how KD is aware of how many fans have been complaining about the schedule, and his rationalization for it.
"...(we have) a good equipment deal, thanks to Lebron" -- KD
Since this is a prediction thread, I'll repeat KD's "prediction" from the video..."winning teams win, and losing teams lose"
I'm surprised KD didn't use the opportunity to speak directly to the fan and tell them to come out to watch the team because they were going to be exciting to watch. Missed opportunity IMO. I guess he'll wait until his post game interviews with Steve to do it.
I wish Zeke had his own lapel mic, so I can hear his comments. I like his responses to some of KD's zingers.

I hope your right. Can a team keep that up for 40 minutes? I might rent out a defibrillator for the games just incase. Good backup for fans obnoxiously squawking at the refs too.No, Doc, this is a good thing! Forty minutes of absolute hell on earth.... for the other guys. -
In my heart, I wanted it to be offense, but in my mind I know when it comes to KD, it is defense.More full-court pressure after made baskets. More half-court pressure. More traps.

I'll answer JZ's question simply by saying "no." I'm not sure how we are going to judge the final answer though. Average points per game per season throughout the KD years? Some stat geek can probably look something like that up.

Now you know:
"I'm not going to throw this season away. It's not time to bench seniors and play all young people. That's disrespectful of our players here who are trying so hard. They've been through a lot. They've been through three coaches and a lot of turnover. [The losing] is not their fault. So I have no desire to throw Pohl into the fire, although he's ready to go if somebody gets injured."

Since I have seen this highly controversial statement posted more than once here this year, I'm going to keep track of all the games the Zips shouldn't win, and do. I'll count all games where they are more than 5 point underdogs and end up winning. Should be a fun year.This is a team that should win some games they aren't expected to win, and will probably lose some games they are expected to win.

I believe 'cornbread' was the one who posted that. He gives credit to Allen

IMO we need to pass successfully to set up our run. The play calling Saturday looked the opposite. We run too many times on first down unsuccessfully to succeed on obvious passing downs.
-
Evaluate the game from our perspective next home game. It really helps IMO.
You get a chance to see all the receiver routes and see who, and where, the opportunities are.
You get to see if the QB is making the proper decisions and if he has time to do so.
Beer is inexpensive up there too.
If I remember, I'll take some Polaroids, and we can study them.

Most the time the fan that is too close to any team doesn't have clear big picture of whats going on. It's happened to me before.I don't mean this as an insult, but the fans who watch practices always tend to act like they know more than anyone else. Does it really mean my input doesn't matter, because I haven't watched them practice?I'll have my prediction ready when I see them play CSU in December.

Offense doesn't call for it. It's odd the two football teams I root for, changed this year.5) Besides D-Line and O-Line, we NEED a few burners at WR in the 2013 class. Otherwise, the good defenses will continue to sit on the short stuff. -
Worst part of watching your team get beat is going to Lot 9 for an after party and watching OSU honks dance around the parking lot as their real team wins a come from behind victory. Disgraceful.

I saw a lot of good coverage in the secondary yesterday by NI.
I think a lot of bad things that happen to DW were the direct result of that.
I noticed this somewhere near the second quarter and would have
like to see a play calling adjustment. Our first down runs were too predictable yesterday.
I think I jinxed us by writing "I think our offense can score on anybody."
Now I'm concerned with the effectiveness of this offense in NEO weather.

I remember reading this in Saul Hudson's autobiography (highly recommended & worth 98 cents), I thought it was interesting, and not well known.

I have Direct TV and watch ESPN3 on my XBox. There are other ways too. Apple TV can be made to watch ESPN3 also without any cable provider. Do some research.
-
Xbox Live Access ESPN 3 No cable provider necessary.No, there are not. My Cablevision does not support it. -
There are more than a few ways to get ESPN 3, you choose not to do so...many of us can not get that.Game works on first row.

Print this image out real big and come up with some clever saying like most of OU's MAC opponents have.
I know it's a basketball image, but trust me, it will get your message across.

I would like for TB to "steal" some lineman from the little 10, and to actually beat someone in that conference.
I'm optimistic that a TB led Zips team will accomplish both in the near future.

If you have watched more than one Steelers game this season, you have not been paying attention to the lack of pass rush. But your overall statement is on, defenses need to make a QB uncomfortable, the Zips...and Steelers are not.Having ultimately no pass rush will kill our already weak secondary. Team's with good pass rushes (see the steelers) help cover for a lousy secondary by giving the CB less time that he has to be on his man.24th in the NFL For perspective, the Browns are ranked twice as high, at 12th.

If that shows up on my board, I will partake.I see +925 right now -
I like the points. Hoping to see a money line by Friday.20.5 point spread -
With KD's player rotation philosophy, I would be surprised to see "the towers" get any significant shared floor time.
In Huggins motion offense, I could see it due to the post play.

20 years, I hear Bain Capital is interested after that.Does anyone know if the naming rights to the FB stadium have an expiration date?
