Henry Ruggs has been transferred from his initial prison, High Desert State Prison outside of Vegas, to the Stewart Conservation Camp in Carson City. It is a minimum-security facility with a capacity of 360 inmates. Of which, most of the inmates work for the state Division of Forestry. The facility has more Division of Forestry staff members than DOC staff members. He will be up for parole in August of 2026.

Though still not as impressive as Terence Newman being a starting CB at age 39, IMO. Allow me the throw in the George Blanda reference Placekicker and quarterback. Blanda played 26 seasons of pro football and had scored more points than anyone in history at the time of his retirement. Blanda retired from pro football in August 1976 at age 48, the sport's oldest player ever. At age 43, Blanda was playing for the Raiders as a kicker and had a remarkable five-game run as a quaterback. Against the Steelers, Blanda threw for three touchdowns in relief of an injured quaterback Daryle Lamonica. One week later, his 48-yard field goal with three seconds remaining salvaged a 17–17 tie with the Kansas City Chiefs. On November 8, he again came off the bench to throw a touchdown pass to tie the Cleveland Browns with 1:34 remaining, then kicked a 53-yard field goal with 0:03 left for the 23–20 win In the team's next game, Blanda replaced Lamonica in the fourth quarter and connected with Fred Biletnikoff on a touchdown pass with 2:28 left in the game to defeat the Denver Broncos, 24–19. The following week, Blanda's 16-yard field goal in the closing seconds defeated the San Diego Chargers, 20–17. In the AFC title game against the Baltimore Colts, Blanda again relieved an injured Lamonica, completing 17 of 32 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns while also kicking a 48-yard field goal and two extra points, keeping the Raiders in the game until the final quarter, when he was intercepted twice. At 43, he became the oldest quarterback ever to play in a championship game, and was one of the few remaining straight-ahead kickers in the NFL. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Blanda |

The highest paid college coaches make around $10M-$11M, so, yeah. Jim Harbaugh made $10M at Michigan last season so it would’ve taken a lot more than that to get him to bail on the school he played for. Of course, Harbaugh also probably wanted to get the hell out of Dodge before the hammer gets brought down on Michigan and wins get vacated. |

I think Andy might legitimately love the game more than he loves is own family, but there’s a limit to how long a man of his age and health can grind the way he does. He works insane hours, his training camps are notoriously tough, and his team has been playing 23ish games a year recently. I don’t know how long he’ll keep that up. What comes after Andy? A semi recent rumor was Matt Nagy, and that’s terrifying. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: "Blanda was signed by the Chicago Bears for $600 in 1949, an amount owner George Halas demanded back when he made the team. Blanda was given a lucrative contract of $6000, as the $600 was just a sign on bonus." Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Allow me the throw in the George Blanda reference Placekicker and quarterback. Blanda played 26 seasons of pro football and had scored more points than anyone in history at the time of his retirement. Blanda retired from pro football in August 1976 at age 48, the sport's oldest player ever. At age 43, Blanda was playing for the Raiders as a kicker and had a remarkable five-game run as a quaterback. Against the Steelers, Blanda threw for three touchdowns in relief of an injured quaterback Daryle Lamonica. One week later, his 48-yard field goal with three seconds remaining salvaged a 17–17 tie with the Kansas City Chiefs. On November 8, he again came off the bench to throw a touchdown pass to tie the Cleveland Browns with 1:34 remaining, then kicked a 53-yard field goal with 0:03 left for the 23–20 win In the team's next game, Blanda replaced Lamonica in the fourth quarter and connected with Fred Biletnikoff on a touchdown pass with 2:28 left in the game to defeat the Denver Broncos, 24–19. The following week, Blanda's 16-yard field goal in the closing seconds defeated the San Diego Chargers, 20–17. In the AFC title game against the Baltimore Colts, Blanda again relieved an injured Lamonica, completing 17 of 32 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns while also kicking a 48-yard field goal and two extra points, keeping the Raiders in the game until the final quarter, when he was intercepted twice. At 43, he became the oldest quarterback ever to play in a championship game, and was one of the few remaining straight-ahead kickers in the NFL. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Blanda "Blanda was signed by the Chicago Bears for $600 in 1949, an amount owner George Halas demanded back when he made the team.
