  1. Count me in the minority, but I came away from the spring game impressed with the overall physicality and improvement on both sides of the ball. I think the offensive line improves enough to really highlight the skills of LJH and CJ, and we get a surprising amount of production from Duvernay, the TE position and Carter/Young/Ingram catching the ball out of the backfield. It's not going to take much improvement on offense to win those "coin flip" matchups like KSU, WVU, and Okla St with these fucking blood-thirsty unsparing wolves we have on defense.
  2. 2006, aka comparing true freshmen seasons. That comparison had Colt with Selvin (SR) and Jamaal Charles (member him?) behind Studdard and Blalock, and throwing to Cosby, Shipley, Sweed, and Pittman. I'm not saying Ehlinger is on Colt's level, just that ctj and other's constant railing on Sam may be better served to have a little context and a little fucking perspective. When Studdard and Blalock left, you also saw a drop in efficiency from Colt his SO season, almost as if (bear with me here) OL plays a huge role in QB/RB output.
  3. ..and Colt is nowhere near as good as Colt with last year's line and Tim fucking Beck is my point.
  4. I spit out my cold brew.
  5. Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Starkel Motion.
  6. And how would Sam look with Colt’s OL + skill players from ‘06?
  7. Context, in this case, matters. We've been terrible under Strong for three seasons, and Herman at least got us to a bowl and could enjoy the "year two bump" this year. Sumlin consistently won 8 games. If Jimbo wins 6 or less, it will have an effect against a resurgent Texas. How much effect will be anyone's guess.
  8. Some of you disappoint me. You really think all of this pressure early will pay off if Jimbo has a shitty season? The recruiting season is long and full of terrors.
  9. Have a sneaking suspicion Herman is waiting on Kingsbury for OC, hence holding onto Beck for another season against all logic.
  10. Is this true though? I'd argue Gary Johnson this year will be better than Malik last, in addition to big improvements out of Roach, Hager, Graham, McCulloch, and Charles O to minimize the loss of Poona. Elliot was nails, but you gotta love the influx of DB talent that can play a ton this year in Sterns, Foster and Cook. *shrugs*
  11. It’s really something to behold how quickly some of you audit Herman’s recruiting capabilities not but 2+ months removed from the #3 class. Get outside, enjoy this weather, and reject the urge to be huge pussies.
  12. The cameras caught him fielding grounders in warmup.
  13. Going to be a bloodbath this year between Herman, Riley, and Jimbaggins.
  14. Think it's going to be a monumental recruiting weekend for the Spring Game.
  15. Add to his reluctance to lead receivers through their routes with good anticipation, the dude just doesn't have any pocket awareness or escapability.
  16. Adam Scott in Step Brothers
  17. This is totally fair. Shaggy did predict 6 wins the last two seasons on the recruiting boards. But the effects of recruiting classes are felt on the field at least a couple years after signing day. Sumlin's 2015 and 2016 classes will prominently figure into Jimbo's W/L this year, and they leave something to be desired.
