If Oldacre can be a bit of a presence around the rim and absorb some of what otherwise would be Jones fouls, that's a useful role.

So who gets the win?
ESPN showed it as LBJ. So...not sure.

"Unlucky" things happen a lot to teams that aren't very good.

So all it takes for us to win is starting Blanco and having 44 detonate a couple bombs. Making a note of that.

Bowels: Why 11 Longhorns drafted isn't good enough.
"Sorry, but I'll have to drop the 11 draftees story below Bush finally getting his well-deserved Heisman back."

These analysts just get so focused on one thing. Drafts in a natural cycle have deep years and shallow years. It’s been unnatural since Covid, the changes in redshirting, the portal, NIL, super seniors, etc. it will take a year or two. The NFL needs to rethink its policies as well regarding draft eligibility in light of NIL. The NCAA needs to change its policies as well. Why is it ok to play pro baseball but come back and play football in college? Kids should be allowed to enter the draft and see where they end up and if it sucks be able to return to CFB with their remaining eligibility. Call it the draft portal and if they don’t like the results they can return to CFB at a school that will take them. The loss of eligibility should be at signing of a contract.In this scenario, how would you avoid the total loss of the drafting team's pick if the player won't sign?

Sending Ridder to AZ for former Longhorn commit Rondale Moore is a decent move by the Falcons.

I suppose the one good thing about our guys going to Carolina is knowing they'll get some early touches. Whether or not those lead to positive yardage is of course yet to be determined.

Stuck in the Shaka era? We finished 240th in the country in 3FGA/game, 99th in 3FG%.
A careless turnover or bad 2-point attempt (with no offensive rebound) has become more our MO.

Put on some generic unis and caps. Our brand doesn't deserve this humiliation.

That’s terrible for Brooks. Team is a mess with zero oline. A jockey sized qb. And an owner who is an absolute piece of shit. They have facilities on the level of an HBCU. Worst place to play in the league.
He needs to stay on the sidelines until he's fully rehabbed. And by that I mean until his rookie contract's up.

Bad pitching. Bad defense. Bad team.

This is a very interesting topic, appreciate the spreadsheet work.
Noticing how none of the 1st round WRs were 5 stars, I wonder how “valuable” a 5 star at one position will likely be versus another position. For example, is a 5-star WR more likely to be a first round pick than a 5-star DL? I am too busy (lazy) at the moment to do a deep dive, but a cursory look back at the 5 star WR rankings is kind of shocking.
In 2021, for example, the industry ranked WRs in the top-40 were: Emeka Egbuka (OSU), JaCorey Brooks (Bama), Mario Williams (lol), and Agiye Hall (lolol).
In 2020: Julian Fleming (OSU), Demond Demas (lol), J Smith-Njigba (OSU), Kayshon Boutte (LSU), Rakim Jarrett (Maryland) and Jordan Johnson (ND).
Draft status isn’t the be-all-end-all of player productivity, but only JSN was a first round pick and arguably a ++ player.
The higher the maintenance, the greater the risk of never taking a checkered flag. Not sure about all these guys, but at a minimum we know Hall, Demas and Boutte flashed a lot of "check engine" warnings.

like does the NFL force these guys to say every pick is great, every guy is a great fit and will be a great player
Warner didn't come across as thinking Caleb Williams would be all that unless he ditches his hero ball mindset.

Goddamnit, every highlight of Penix on NFL Network was against us in the Sugar Bowl.
We made that dude some money. He should send us a check for future NIL.

Let's see if Yordan can nail a 500 footer into the stands, and that be the spark that ignites a fire in this team that burns until they win the World Series in November!
Even if Yordan hit a monster shot over the wall, I'd half expect the Rockies' version of Bob Beamon to leap into the stands and catch it.

Yordan gonna go yard so we can add another 1-run L to the collection.
Instead of losing yet another one in extras? Don't count that option out just yet.

Sometimes the answer is that you don't have enough guys who hit the ball well enough. Stay tuned for more brilliant analysis.
