  1. Very funny to me that people view the shifting of these odds as some kind of "inside information" when the main reason they are shifting is that the guy who was the heavy favorite has just announced he's not taking the job.
  2. This isn't a very fun internet answer, but I think trying to narrow it down to a top 5 is a fool's errand in the new era of college football and temporarily influenced by recent results. I think there are legitimately 15 or so schools that can be considered in the top tier and capable of going on a run, and coaching determines who rises to the top and who flounders. Criteria: 1) Need to be in the new SEC or B1G 2) Need to have access to fertile recruiting base 3) Need to have robust alumni base willing to spend money 4) Helps (but not necessary) to have a history of winning 5) Not aggy
  3. Get off the ledge. Nobody with any insight views Sark as a legitimate candidate. Bama insiders think Texas is one of the only jobs that could withstand a Bama push. It’s gonna be Lanning.
  4. Kurt never missing an opportunity to throw out baseless speculation that could hurt the University he covers.
  5. The aggy civil war between the traditional "tu sucks and they could lose every game in the mighty SEC" vs the slightly enlightened "tu sucks but I recognize they might win a lot of games but that's only because they had an easy schedule" is fascinating to watch.
  6. For the first time, kinda thinking Trump's lawyers may be on to something...
  7. On top of the obvious "if your party controls more than 1/3 of the Senate, you can murder your political rivals" conclusion, now is also where we remember that almost every single Senator cited that Trump was no longer physically in office as their reason for voting against impeachment. Given that argument combined with the arguments presented today, we are basically attempting to greenlight the Purge for any elected official in their last few weeks of office.
  8. I viewed your "we'd hire a scumbag if we really cared" as a +1 to Hermanator's commentary that the University does not care about basketball. My post was more directed at his post than yours, but the scumbag comment triggered it.
  9. There's a fucking grand canyon between Barnes/Shaka and what Beard did. I do not think there's any universe where we fire Beard for recruiting violations or anything that you see from the typical "scumbag" college coach. But to think that any major institution in 2023 wouldn't have followed the exact same course of action as we did is the kind of delusion that can only be found on sports message boards. It's fine and valid to be frustrated at the turn of events, but to blame the University is texags level commentary.
  10. None of my mockery is directed at Elko, he's doing what is literally necessary to fill out the depth chart for next year. It's at the lunatics trying to convince everyone that a high number of kids agreeing to transfer to aggy is evidence of positive trajectory.
  11. Fairly certain that our 2024 schedule includes an away game versus the team that finished in the same spot as us from the NFC East. With their win today, that would be the Cowboys. The NFL has a chance to make Thanksgiving week 2024 the greatest football week in the history of the state…
  12. Has this guy ever been right about anything?
  13. Yes, I also find it funny that double digit portal transfers was a legitimate necessity for them to even field a complete football team next season, yet they are using evidence of these commitments (all of whom are spares with the exception of Scourton) as some sort of positive referendum on Elko.
  14. This is like when I'm working from home and move my mouse to trick everyone into thinking that I'm still online.
  15. And this is precisely why it’s one of their favorite tools. If you dare ask a question like “how could a child sex ring be run out of the basement of a restaurant that does not contain a basement” they get to label you as someone who does not care about pedophilia. Everyone takes pedophilia seriously. One side loves to play games with it.
  16. Disagree. From Target dressing rooms to Wayfair conspiracy theories to the Sound of Freedom to the breathless coverage of the release of this list to the complete silence regarding the Catholic Church, pedophilia is one of the right’s absolute favorite political footballs.
  17. Tough to draw any concrete conclusions from a screenshot, but that first image sure makes it look like Quinn wanted Jordan first. That hurts.
  18. aggy doesn't lie, cheat, or steal... unless they have a chance to beat tu, then who gives a fuck
  19. Well, it also helped that Penix turned into a player that he hasn't been all season. Historically, getting pressure (which we did) should be enough to rattle Penix, even if you don't get home. Unfortunately, he just became Superman for a few hours.
  20. I read hundreds of aggy posts trying to rationalize our win vs Bama, and almost all of them pointed to the lack of talent at WR.
