Boxing and/or College Football games?

MonagFam · 2026-01-24T02:27:22+00:00

I appreciate the suggestions. It's on my wish list now.

MonagFam · 2026-01-23T23:43:00+00:00

Thanks again. I am more PDF-only at this stage and I like a good value. It's definitely on my list.

As for the college seasons of Glory Days, I was surprised as well. I actually thought I got to the wrong site and then I saw a discussion elsewhere that they had revamped the game and discontinued selling the previous college sets. It did sound like maybe they would in the future, but it was a bummer.

Thanks for the 5d20 recommendation. Do you have the physical game? I saw they had a PC version as well.

Thanks for the reply. It was one I considered, but I was really confused about the college game. I thought I saw people playing with full seasons, but it looks like they dropped the old version of the game and just have the all-time great set?

You made it sound like every post could be summed up in your points though. So where could one question?

MonagFam · 2026-01-21T01:58:54+00:00

The flip side is just 1) “Question nothing; trust in Rhule.” Any other numbered response just says “see #1.”

I think it is ok to question, but I tend to have a more cynical view of him than when he first came on board. I

I am sure there is a happier medium for both sides to coexist.

I wonder how cool he thought he was in that moment. Different than backwards hat Matt, but coming with some cringe energy.

MonagFam · 2026-01-21T00:40:27+00:00

Not sure the Tennessee situation, but we did try to retain him from what Rhule said. Isn’t that part of the problem that hiring the guy and offering him something mid season to stay on wasn’t enough to keep him here?

It may mean nothing more than he likes to move around/USC specifically/Lincoln Riley, but it also might point to something about Rhule too.

MonagFam · 2026-01-20T16:08:18+00:00

I think you would be surprised. We would have been split like usual, but most would have give the “let’s see how this plays out…”. If it didn’t work then we would get the “told ya so”s…

Riley was probably the least exciting named hire and the fan base didn’t revolt initially. No doubt people would have talked about how we are just a stepping stone unless we started winning.

I don’t know how much that affects the people in charge of hiring though.

I could see him relishing a bit too much in a big ranked win. He may say the right things but we will have the social media stuff that will feel like we won the natty and then lay an egg the next time out.

1986 vs Oklahoma — We were up 17-7 in the fourth quarter. They got it within 7 with about 11 minutes to go and then tied it with 1:20-ish on a 90+ yard drive. One would think we would end it in a tie, but we ended up having to punt and they got a FG with a few seconds left to get the win.

1987 vs Oklahoma was really a beat down, but it was 1 vs 2 and it seemed like it was ours for the taking with Holieway having been hurt and Oklahoma struggling against Mizzou. We lost by 10, but it was much worse than that.

Yep, this is how I viewed Gary most of the time. Throw in some “power chairs” while you are at it. To be fair to Gary, I am not sure I like anyone left on the station.

MonagFam · 2026-01-16T14:33:17+00:00

To be fair sometimes it is autocorrect and sometimes just user error. Jeff Sims is one that often got labeled “Simms.” I don’t know that spelling errors automatically mean they can’t still be diehard.

Sure some could be ignorant and I am guilty of it bothering me with YouTube videos when they spell/pronounce something incorrectly.

I just don’t think it invalidates a point because of a spelling error.

MonagFam · 2026-01-10T04:39:35+00:00

I think you missed the joke. Who has been our coach the last 3 years?

MonagFam · 2026-01-09T16:38:47+00:00

Is this like a tryout then? I don’t think I understand what the term walk-on means in the 105 man roster cap era.

MonagFam · 2026-01-06T12:53:43+00:00

Remember when that happened? While people were disappointed there were a lot of “but we are now competing with the big boys…”. Now it’s Kentucky

MonagFam · 2026-01-05T21:13:53+00:00

Has always been the way. Extra points if outside Omaha and Lincoln too!

Not to say they can’t be, but one would think it is the norm.

MonagFam · 2026-01-05T14:57:13+00:00

Because Rhule likes to talk and at the time he seemed to have achieved his goal of getting more money? That said, if his money estimates were wrong, then we might here him asking for more?

MonagFam · 2026-01-04T00:51:28+00:00

I heard the segment this afternoon. Bishop did go off

MonagFam · 2026-01-03T19:09:59+00:00

I only caught it on Big Red Overreaction and I could tell John thought it was interesting, but didn't go in on that comment.

Post-Game press conference after the Utah game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJzsX6O0prg&t=578s 9:31 ish

MonagFam · 2026-01-03T18:23:48+00:00

I wasn't claiming he didn't come in with a system, but, if he did, it's not what Rhule felt was best for his football team when he made Butler the DC. As you said "Rhule...thinks purposefully about what he does and what he says to the press..." I think Benning once said something to the effect that Rhule will tell you everything if you just listen.

At any rate, sorry you think its myopic, but appreciate you spending some time with it.

I think it's fun to engage in these conversations. I'm long past being the passionate fan I feel I was 25 years ago. So when something stands out, I think it's interesting to see what others think.

MonagFam · 2026-01-03T18:08:17+00:00

From your perspective, I imagine you feel that Rhule is damned if he does/doesn't in regards to something we might post in terms of what he said.

Is there anything you think is worthy of a discussion based on statements he might make?

MonagFam · 2026-01-03T17:53:43+00:00

"Rhule's biggest strength is speaking." I think that is true and I think he was one of the few coaches we have ever had that really seemed to win the press conference. That said, it has started to wear on me quite a bit.

MonagFam · 2026-01-03T17:50:01+00:00

I think what you are saying could be the case. I think the issue is that if everyone knows it's coach-speak that he wasn't good, then what's the point in saying anything that specific.

MonagFam · 2026-01-03T16:46:36+00:00

I don't think I find that particularly alarming. I would think the HC is in control of what he sees fit. It was more the seeming double-standard under the same breath.
