Why do people always leave out Tom Flick?

I'm pretty sure he transferred from Nevada-Reno. I think he had a pick 6 against us, and then was going to transfer. Dawgman had him (or whoever the transfer was) as a secret commit for awhile. You had to buy a premium subscription to see who he was.

The only one I haven't seen that I dooged over was Chris Handy transferring. I'm sick remembering how excited I got over those recruiting classes.

Bruce Harrell, too.

I had no idea he was from Louisiana. I knew he played about for the Saints, but didn't know it was a homecoming. Good call.

Even though he was a walk-on, I'm guessing Curtis Gaspard was our best from Louisiana.

I think Greg Carothers was better.

Besides Whitfield, what I remember most about the 1991 Stanford game is Chico Fraley refusing a penalty when they were inside our 5 yard line. Keith Jackson couldn't believe it.

TL;DR there's a shit load of variables that have to be considered. If you're looking at how dominant the team was relative to their respective era, then there's no question the '91 team is superior. I was simply taking the "walking on the shoulders of giants" approach when making my analysis...

They did, but they were still probably the best team in Indiana.

The only reason I voted for 2016 is I think football has evolved so much since then. Our defense would get exposed, and I think 2016 defense would be able to contain our 1991 offense.

While playing Colt baseball in the summer of '87, I got a hanging curve ball and hit a soft ground ball between the 3rd baseman and shortstop. The pitcher looked bored, which caused me to be bored. When I looked at my dugout after reaching base, everyone had a "why are we even out here" look...

Playing basketball for Boys Club when I'm 11, and we're going against Loyal Heights in our first game. Half our team doesn't even make it to the game, and we have to get some players from the stands. I think we're losing something like 50-8, and I got so embarrassed and upset that I walked off...

I actually did score a TKO. The tape ran out about 30 seconds too early.

The former.
