  1. We aren’t the only school losing young talent that we want to keep. We played him (even started a game as a freshman!) and surely have communicated that his role will continue to grow over the years. I guess someone offered him more money, but I can’t imagine that our offer was anything to sneeze at. I just have no idea how teams (any team, not just ours) are supposed to keep a roster of 100 players happy in this era. Again, I’m sure we will benefit more often than not in this structure, but holy shit anyone who volunteers to be a coach in this profession is a certifiable psychopath.
  2. Nothing new here, but when guys like Bo Barnes feel the need to entire the portal you know the entire system is broken.
  3. Except for basically any other athlete that plays a professional sport. And yes, I know these athletes aren't considered 'professionals' which is a big part of the problem. Team building is a huge part of this (and every) sport and there needs to be a bit of predictability on who will be on a roster at any given time. Contracts need to be meaningful and enforceable.
  4. How else would he be able to fund his wife’s plastic surgeries?
  5. Current state of college football: worse than Aaron Hernandez.
  6. “Hell is empty, and so is our offensive depth chart”
  7. How can we afford to pay Clark with all the money we are not paying these other guys?
  8. Someday, he will look back and realize that however much more he made this year from Oklahoma was nowhere near enough to justify losing the opportunity to catch passes from Arch in a contract year and having the entire fanbase of his favorite childhood team turn on him. He will be richer in a year because he chose OU. He will be much, much poorer in the long run.
  9. This link has enraged me to the point I may need to turn off the internet for a while and walk around for a bit.
  10. Yeah, this is much closer to where I am. I don’t blame the 9.95ers. If you follow this stuff long enough, you can generally tell the kind of information being fed to them. You can tell when they’ve been told someone is a lock, you can tell when they’ve been told we are a sneaky contender, and you can tell when they’ve been told we have no shot. It’s obvious that this staff viewed a few guys as locks that ended up not working out. Overoptimism appears to be a pattern with this staff, and when you are letting current productive players leave then you need to be sure that your free agent reads are accurate. I don’t know that this staff has earned the benefit of the doubt in that regard, in my opinion. I’m fine letting Tre Wisner walk. I’m not fine if that means merely hoping that the person we end up signing will be as good as Tre Wisner.
  11. As bad as that day felt, there was a little relief in the thought of “at least this is all over.” Turns out it was only the beginning.
  12. I agree with your takes like 99% of the time on here, but it’s very obvious that the staff was feeding the 9.95ers an overly rosy picture that has not remotely developed. There’s of course still time to correct, but ignoring that this first weekend has not gone according to plan is ignoring reality.
  13. I have no idea if Coleman is the best use of the funds required to get him, but perception-wise you cannot lose this kid to aggy unless you have a hell of a plan b.
  14. And regardless of what ACTUALLY happens, millions of Americans now believe that Hegseth punished Kelly for his actions. Again, the end result generally doesn't really matter to these guys. It's all about the theatre.
  15. None of this is super surprising to those of us that follow this shit closely, but millions of Americans just got an Apple News alert stating that the US has reduced their vaccine requirements. Without proper context, that fucking sucks.
  16. Is today your first day following American politics?
  17. The NO CLOAK ROOM!!!!! banshees gonna show up for this one?
  18. And because he's a Democrat, the portion of the population that are unable to think for themselves have REALLY REALLY started to care about Minnesotan preschools.
  19. Quick to reply here but not to my last post in this thread...
  20. "Someone on your team resigning over something that someone on my team never would!!!" Quite the flex.
  21. FWIW, this is why right wing media wins. They can bring an issue where NOBODY knows the concrete details to the forefront of the national conversation and create a narrative purely based on vibes.
  22. This is a hell of a marketing campaign for that new Gerard Butler movie.
