    The richest 1,000 students at Texas make the richest 1,000 at Baylor look like bums. 

    And the poorest 90% of Baylor comes from much wealthier families than than the poorest 90% of Texas.

    Yes, Baylor is a rich kids school.  So is TCU.  Not sure what there is to even debate there.  It's over $50k a year for a mediocre education, and it's over 80% white kids from well-to-do suburbs.

  2. Right, I already have a laptop and I play a shitload of digital board games on it. 

    I want a console really just to veg out on the couch with some sports games.  If NCAA weren't making its triumphant return, I wouldn't even be in the market.  

  3. I haven't really messed with video games in about 5 years, but I used to play NCAA, FIFA, and shooters pretty religiously.

    And with NCAA coming back, I'll need a system soon.

    I don't really care about the PS5 exclusive titles.  I expect that I'll pick up MLB The Show, the new NCAA game, and maybe Call of Duty or something.

    So, I guess I go with the slightly more powerful Xbox X?  It's also the controller that I'm more used to.  I had a PS2 back in the day, then I had XBox 360 and Xbox One.

    Other considerations?

    Vet RBs are fine, just don't break the bank on them

    Yeah, it's not something I'd ordinarily want to spend money on, but when you've got a star QB like CJ on a rookie contract and this much money to spend, hell yeah you can take a reasonably-priced shot at a Saquon or Henry.  Draft a backup plan, obv.

  5. I feel like there's substantial injury risk with any RB.  But how many have Saquon's upside if they do stay healthy?  It has the potential to be the FA signing of the season.  Take the shot.

    Derrick Henry also sounds great to me.

    Get either of those guys, bolster the D, keep CJ away from Ho Island, and this team might fuck around and win the AFC.

    Lol dude that’s ‘dwarfed’?

     

    Our average margin of victory was 33.5 points that year; half of Auburn’s 14 games they didn’t hit 38 total. You think that spread in total TDs might not have had a bit to do with all but 3-4 of our games being over by halftime?

    This is all true.  VY sat out a lot of 4th quarters.  See the CCG when we had 70 points on the board midway through the 3rd.  Ironically, VY's stats took a hit specifically because he was so completely dominant.

    Cam also played an extra game.

    I'm not saying Cam wasn't great.  He had a top-5 season ever at the position.

    But to say that his stats dwarfed VY's is to miss an awful lot of context.

  7. So, the veteran starting QB got upset that the coked-out rookie moron kept asking the same question over and over?

    Ya don't say.

    You're a real hero for coming forward with your story, Johnny 8-Ball.
