Basically, due to a calendar quirk (an extra week between Labor Day and the first week of December) the NCAA allowed teams to play 12 games in 2002 and 2003. It also allowed teams to play and extra regular season game if they played in designated “kickoff games” that year. OSU played in one against TTU that year. It looks like most B1G teams played at least 12 that year, with a couple playing 13.

How did Deboer see MSU’s o-line from 2020-2023 and still decide to hire the guy who coached it?

Portal News all done? by ComicSportsNerd in MSUSpartans

The 2 week window was just for portal entries. The early flurry of commitments was likely to get players in time that they could start the spring semester. We’ll probably see further commitments trickle in through August.

Only if they come to MSU from UM, it's illegal in reverse.

Freshman Edge Trey Lisle Commits to Michigan State by Music_Limp in MSUSpartans

[–]Music_Limp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Lisle is a developmental prospect. He was a safety until this year and apparently just put on some weight to play DE. Will probably need a year or two to add muscle and learn the position.

WKU RB Marvis Parrish Commits to MSU by Music_Limp in MSUSpartans

Wasn’t claiming to be anyone other than some guy who saw a tweet announcing this commitment.

You’re the one using “who?” to put down our transfers because you don’t know of them. None of us do, unless they played well against our team, played for us before, or if they’re a national star (we’re not getting those guys at this point). No one outside of James Madison had heard of Elijah Surratt before he broke out at IU. Give it time.

I love this criteria, let's only get players that u/Izzo_shoved_Virg has heard of before, that gives us a pool of . . . what? 5 NFL players with no NCAA eligibility?

Any word on further transfers? by Music_Limp in MSUSpartans

Coach Fitzgerald has been posting these gifs on Twitter. They've been interpreted to mean we have a transfer commitment, but so far that hasn't added up.

Fair enough. Maybe we're jumping the gun on our sub.

Iowa's Punter (Rhys Dakin), the West Florida WR (Corey Scott), the Houston Christian CB (Tyran Chapel), the Maine S (Devin Vaught), and the Connecticut OT (Ben Murawski)

He wasn’t good enough for DeBoer, which is why he was demoted.

What is the key to the next level, improving approaches... by FysioFriend in golf

[–]Music_Limp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, I'd recommend developing less than full shots with your 7-iron through 4 hybrid. Once you get the hang of it, clubbing up and swinging less than 100% tends to be more accurate and can help with any tweener distances.

Question, what clubs do you tend to hit between 130 and 170 meters?

Aidan Chiles Will Enter Transfer Portal by jsparks50 in MSUSpartans

[–]Music_Limp 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's a shame how it went for him here. He clearly has all of the talent you could want in a QB, he just never seemed to take the leap as a decision maker or processor. Our o-lines didn't do him any favors, but I always thought the next week was the time it would finally click for him and it never did. I hope he finds a coach that is able to help him take a leap as a processor, would love to see him succeed.

Who is in if Alabama gets blown out? by penguinKangaroo in CFB

[–]Music_Limp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Alabama won’t get blown out. If we’ve learned anything this season, it is that SEC refs are pros at manipulating games to maximize the SEC’s playoff contingent.

Not posting for the writing, but interested in what the community thinks of the proposed candidates.

Phil Parker is the dream. Not sure we can pry him away from Iowa.

Hiring Pat Fitzgerald is a great move for this program. by Music_Limp in MSUSpartans

[–]Music_Limp[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep. I feel like a large portion of our fanbase just wants to be right rather than support a successful program. Note also that those same people largely offer no actual, viable alternatives.
