With respect, total BS. Faulty hyper partisan distorted info. Entire agreement was conditional on each party honoring the agreed upon conditions. May was never a hard and fast date on its own President Biden was not bound by it, but wanted to show his brilliance by exiting a war he never supported, even when President Obama surged in 30.000 troops in 2009 while Biden was VP. Wanted this withdrawal to show he more savvy than Obama. Who would you choose on intelligence?

No US casualties in 18 months before withdrawal.....but 13 dead at Abbey Gate on Biden's watch. A disgrace. A total disgrace that need not have happened.

Hope you mean malware protection program and not actual malware haha

putting all trust and faith in those 2 games when they remain unconfirmed and being reactive in not pushing on other options if those teams don’t commit on our timeline just seems like a basic level plan failure. Per the language someone posted here, Hardt sure did make it sound like we were just waiting and got stood up.

I’d give the benefit of the doubt if it was one game but by our AD’s comments this is more than one instance. Yeah we prob got screwed but it’s not like the rest of the known schedule is gangbusters or that we had low level P5 games already in hand. Or high level non P5 games even. We have nothing of note.

Also, lastly, this is their job(s). If Moon and the gang need the Glengarry leads, they should remember the other prizes.

Don't forget DJT negotiated we would leave by May, and in doing so limited Biden's options. We could have done better but DJT set the framework.

Thanks, my IT person helped me find issue and was comfortable with the two remaining sites.

I agree Biden could have done a much better job on the actual withdrawal and that was a black eye to US world image. We also sent very muddled (at best) signals to the world with our handling of the "negotiations" of the withdrawal. There was no involvement of the Afghan government that culminated in the release of 5k Taliban against the wishes of that government. The terms the Taliban agreed to had no enforcement provisions. Beyond that, don't forget the glamorous look of inviting (thankfully aborted) the Taliban to Camp David.

If you look to me to defend Trump, you got the wrong guy.

The tail between our legs withdrawal from Afghanistan encouraged our adversaries to be more aggressive. Factually, believe this beyond dispute If you have evidence to the contrary, lets hear it.

If u go back & read I said "they can accept a schedule like this" re: complacency and in fact said idk if it seeped into the actual scheduling. So yes u r wrong.

I’m genuinely curious, what more would you like our scheduling staff to do when a team won’t schedule us? From the sounds of it, 2 teams (likely top teams) didn’t finish the contract when the ball was in their court. Suppose Auburn was one of the teams who didn’t follow through with the contract on their end. How could we help change that and how do you know we didn’t try?

Richmond's NET OOC SOS was 179 last season. Is that "very good" to you?

If I had to rank our schedules the past 15 years, last years would like be around average. I have said and still maintain that if we beat Boston College, Wichita State, & Northern Iowa we would be in the thick of the bubble conversation. I don’t think our schedule itself is what kept us from an at-large, it was the lack of results that kept us out. 8-5 isn’t going to cut it for an at-large.

I was recently told by an IT person, that you should only run one malware site. The sites are always updating themselves and that results in one malware site fighting with another.
He said chose one and stick with it.

Wood, now you are on a roll. Believe off base on several comments, but appreciate the fervor of your opinions.

Can't get into an extended discussion tonight, but failing to recognize the disastrous consequences of our withdrawal from Afghanistan strikes me as shortsighted. Agree, it was time to leave, but how we left sent a signal to the World and maintaining a security presence at Bagram, as recommended unanimously by our security agencies, was a no brainer. Even Biden should have recognized that. Well, maybe a stretch, but give him the benefit of the doubt.

What are these "disastrous consequences" you allude to? Saving lives? Saving money? Getting TF out of a place we could never succeed in?

Again, please give me any sane reason to maintain any presence in that country.

If you think Putin doesn't invade Ukraine because we have 2500 soldiers in Afghanistan, you're mistaken. Badly.

Now please defend Trump's abhorrent conduct at Arlington, willfully breaking Federal law.
