Surprised they did not give it to Clemson.

GO DUKE!!!

If he thinks he is deserving of Bosa contract...set him up so that he gets that if he proves it.

Some incentives would be nice...do they ever get put into this type of contact?

@DJ feed me mooreWhat is the time between picks?

Who knows...maybe they were not using the best cleats for the surface. Don't remember Tenn having much trouble....but then I am not 100% positive. Nothing that I noticed.

^Tennessee grass turf could not be maintained well due to the climate if you read the article: Nashville exists in a transition climate zone, which makes growing a consistent grass surface throughout the entire NFL season nearly impossible. In more recent years, after player/coach concerns, an increase in injuries, and persistent issues with the undependable surface, the Titans amped up their research with data to determine the best, and safest, plan moving forward. Looking at statistics from the 2018-2021 NFL seasons, Nissan Stadium had higher lower extremity injuries than each of the monofilament synthetic turfs in the league. They had more injuries with their grass turf...not less.

You can research that.

I watched the UT/VA college game which was played in the Titans stadium in Nashville. The announcers mentioned this turf and made positive comments. Instead of using the black rubber pellets, organic cork is used.(Immediately thinking softer, cooler) One of the announcers said they walked on the field and it felt like grass. Hope Tepper looks into this. Here is some info: https://www.tennesseetitans.com/news/why-the-titans-are-switching-to-turf-at-nissan-stadium-starting-in-2023 Nashville exists in a transition climate zone, which makes growing a consistent grass surface throughout the entire NFL season nearly impossible. In more recent years, after player/coach concerns, an increase in injuries, and persistent issues with the undependable surface, the Titans amped up their research with data to determine the best, and safest, plan moving forward. Looking at statistics from the 2018-2021 NFL seasons, Nissan Stadium had higher lower extremity injuries than each of the monofilament synthetic turfs in the league. The conclusion: Putting in a new, cutting-edge field turf that will be installed in time for the 2023 season. The project – replacing the grass with monofilament, Matrix Helix Turf with organic infill – will provide players with a consistent playing experience year-round. This fall, Nissan Stadium will become the first NFL stadium with the technology of a synthetic turf system that incorporates organic infill. .....to transition to a monofilament surface with an organic infill that mimics the natural feel of grass while getting the consistency and durability of field turf," Organic infill retains moisture better than rubber infill to mimic the feel and performance of natural grass, while the matrix helix design of the turf limits infill "splash" upon contact. Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said the response from the players since that surface was installed prior to last season has been positive. "There is nothing more important than the health and safety of our players," Vrabel said. Improved technology: The monofilament, matrix helix turf, combined with the organic infill, is the latest in turf technology. It combines consistency and durability of field turf with the feel and performance of a grass and dirt surface. The organic infill is a type of infill that mimics the feel and performance of natural grass. It can produce field temperatures that are 20°- 40° cooler than fields with traditional SBR infill. It even requires watering, as it is made with natural materials. Matrix Helix fibers have a corkscrew shape that creates an appearance similar to natural grass while allowing the turf to spring back into place after impact. The shape of the fibers secures infill in place, reducing movement during play and minimizing infill "splash out." Reed Seaton, president and CEO of Hellas Construction Inc., said the consistency of the turf will benefit the players. No matter where an athlete puts a cleat in that turf, it's the same all over the entire field from game to game, Seaton said. "A properly built synthetic turf field with organic infill and a pad is a superior system to a mediocre grass field," Seaton said. "The technology of synthetic turf is now able to emulate a well-maintained grass field. The new playing field at Nissan Stadium will be similar to the surface and infill that is currently used inside the team's indoor practice facility. Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said the response from the players since that surface was installed prior to last season has been positive.

Sad irony he died of a form of skin cancer.

OK, I looked it up: During the first episode of The Brian Kelly Show in 2023, he made quite the bold claim. "There are still areas that are going to need to be improved. We're going to take 15 freshmen on this trip and 14 transfers so nearly 40% of this travel roster are going to go overnight for the first time with LSU. And that's not a disclaimer of any kind, we're going to beat the heck out of Florida State," Kelly said starting around the 13:30 mark of the show. "I guess what I'm saying is we're still developing our football team with new players, freshman players, transfer players. We're still in that process of developing and it's only going to get better as we continue to develop the program," Kelly continued. "It's pretty exciting from my perspective that where we sit here, going into year two, the future is pretty bright. If I was buying a stock, I would buy some LSU Football stock." https://www.si.com/college/fsu/football/lsu-head-coach-brian-kelly-makes-bold-claim-ahead-of-season-opener-against-florida-state#:~:text="I guess what I'm,the program%2C" Kelly continued.

I would love to see Duke win tomorrow night.

What did he say?

WOW

Mike Norvell looks like a guy you would like to have a beer with.....Kelly....ehhhh

Has Brian Kelly had any really good QB's?

Drops killing them.

Late hit.

Getting tired of those "Fanville" commercials. Time for something new.

I just won't click as quickly.

YouTube TV is several seconds behind.

I used to be in the biz...will be happy to pass on info if you ever have any questions.
