1/ Re-upping this thread. Carney govt is in a position where it has to make program cuts *larger than in 1995* just to keep the budget deficit to about $50B. We can argue about how much LPC at fault for this; what's unarguable is that Canadians have not remotely been prepared for cuts of this size.

Bluntly: Deion Sanders did a 200% better job than Bill Belichick of flipping a college roster overnight and getting it ready to play in less than 12 months. Deion's offense made more sense, was easier to grasp and gave that team a shot to compete. Belichick is coaching like talent is equal still.

This is literally like bringing a knife to a gun fight. Everything is outdated. Belichick's scheme was outdated by the NFL standards, which is always behind CFB's innovation to begin with. UNC's offense and defense are straight out of 2007.

Yeah, DeBoer is definitely on the hot seat now. My best guess: 10-2: Definitely safe 9-3: Depends on the losses 8-4: Probably gone 7-5: 👋 9-3 is probably safe.. But I could see a scenario where they lose to UGA to fall to 2-2 and then lose at home to LSU to fall to 6-3 full blown panic sets in.
