  1. I've already rewatched the spring game on youtube so fuck you, you stupid useless cunt
  2. Jimbo has already won as many national championships in one off-season at Aggy than his predecessors did in over 75 years. Advantage aggy
  3. What you sips fails to see is that any QB of Clemson won't be coached by the great national championship winning coach Jimbo Fisher. Advantage aggy
  4. From my perspective, there are multiple steps that can be taken and ought to be taken to counter the problem especially of school shootings. I see three steps that should be taken, in the following order, based on enforceability and immediate impact that are primarily focused on gun violence in schools as we have a premier duty to protect the ones that cannot protect themselves accordingly. 1) Regulation on gun storage: Every gun has to be stored accordingly if it is not carried by the owner. With stored accordingly I mean some kind of safe or locker. You have to limit accessibility to guns for prospective school shooters and since they can't buy the guns by themselves for the most part, family stocks are a main weapon source. Further, you have to penalize failures to comply with this regulation pretty seriously. Similar laws are already in place in other countries and are for my point of the view the best short-term action that also has a chance of making it through the legislative process. 2) Intensify mental health screenings: From my point of view, guns are not the main problem. School shootings are foremost a symptom of deeper problems, but access to guns is what creates a deadly combination. But for every school shooting, there is also a kid that has been lost along the way and that feels the urge to go out on a killing spree and eventually kill himself. For the poster that asked what the number of mentally ill school shooters is, I'd argue 100%, but not all of them have been diagnosed beforehand and that's where we have to get better. Most of those kids have a history of being outsiders, being bullied, or being loners, and we as a society have to make a better job of helping kids before they get fantasies of shooting up their school. 3) Gun control: Lastly, and this is by far the hardest point, which I do not feel like happening anytime soon, is that we enact stricter gun control. I don't think it is the premier measure that should be done, as there are already too many guns in circulation and you can either get guns illegally or use some other weapon (think knifes, explosives, cars, etc.). What I would like to see though, is tighter regulation on who is able to buy guns with a focus on a mental health screening/ psychological background checks. While I do not want to take the guns away from the rightful citizens, I fail to understand while we wouldn't want to check who might be unfit for a weapon of lethal force. You wouldn't hire some lunatic to be your pilot or physician or whatever, why would you give them a deadly weapon. That's something I cannot really comprehend.
  5. Steele is the new waddle, airing first on surly May 2018
  6. Hint: we are his dream school https://247sports.com/Player/Khris-Bogle-46038472
  7. As far as I remember he had an offer pretty much since forever, one of the first 2020 guys we offered last fall
  8. Any visitors on campus this weekend?
  9. Itshappening.gif Aggy decommit season is about to start folks
  10. Because last year's sample was pretty much shit. You had two young QBs starting continuously getting banged up because the oline couldn't block. You had freshmen starting at virtually every position throughout the offense at some point because of shitty depth. And then our oline woes made it really hard to execute plays. Imo play calling wasn't the biggest issue, but oline play and execution (some of it attributable to youth). Our offense is going to be better this year and if not, I'm totally for a change. Oline was the biggest issue and TH tackled that one in the off-season. But Beck has done a tremendous job on the recruiting trail hauling in 3 stud QBs so far and is closing in on the next cycle right now. This year will be the make and break year for him, but I am confident that we will see improvement based on those factors
  11. If y'all can't realize that a new OC/offensive staff every year isn't going to help that I can't help you, too.
  12. It always is with some #startthetruefreshmenQB
  13. Saw that as well. On the other hand, I think it is kinda the official hand sign of OU by now...
  14. Don't know how I should feel about Wilkins rescheduling. EJ's quote sounds a bit like the staff tried to push back the OV, but I'm a little worried that he might be committing to BlowU somewhere down the road and won't be making it in the fall...
  15. As shitty as ESPN rankings are, still an interesting stat
  16. Little bit of both really IMO. A lot of guys with a lot of baggage in TX this cycle that might be athletically gifted but that we are not pursuing... I think the staff has their big board of who they want and they don't necessarily care about where he is from
  17. Can't read that shit on my tablet, cliffs notes Plz? Leal's recruitment is not over yet, Texas still his dream school - Advantage aggy
  18. Well he is the number 1 guy on our board, so there you have it... I think it was to be expected that both ATM and BlowU would gain some steam this weekend with their spring games, especially with Jimbo pushing for early commitmens. I think it will be important to regain momentum with the key targets asap (if I was us I'd schedule my spring game next week or something like that ) Obviously wasn't the weekend we were looking for, but we will push back again soon. Need the key targets on campus and then everything will be fine in the end
