I went to Dortmund to take in the Lambeau Field of Europe and figure out what the hell Borussia Dortmund could be.

Saban and Harbaugh are gone. CFB coaching is kind of a younger man's (well, 50-and-under) game now. I looked at 30 coaches who could define the sport's next decade, from the obvious (hello, Kirby) to the less obvious (SOMEONE HIRE MODERN-DAY ERK RUSSELL).

Wildly depressing stat: Oregon State had 15 players earn All-Pac 12 selections last year.

With Martinez gone, only *one* returns in 2024.

More all-conference Oregon State players will be playing for Florida State, USC and Michigan State than the Beavers next year.

Not sure this works if you don't have one of the most freakishly athletic tight end in the history the sport, but OU had Keith Jackson, so it worked great.

A fun one. We talked about how football analytics has changed over the last decade, the many different ways to craft a roster, what tracking data means for scouting, and the glory of mutant chicken sandwiches.

Three Olympic gold medals. Two national player of the year awards at Virginia. Six WNBA all-star appearances. Three national titles in seven years as a head coach. It's a very short list in basketball history of folks who have a better overall resume than Dawn Staley.

A goal in the first 30 seconds, three goals after the 85th minute, a near-winner in the 98th, a tussle afterward, defenders with their heads wrapped, grannies flipping the bird on camera ... an absolutely perfect Old Firm.

Epic 'Vandy beating Bama' vibes in Germany today (and I stand by my 'Just make Thomas Müller the caretaker coach' suggestion from a month ago).
