  1. Pushing guys out while the portal is closed to them and open for everyone else. Truly big brain strategy.
  2. If you’re reading this thread, and you have the means, and you’re not donating to TOF, you need to get in the motherfucker.
  3. We're all in. The other three playoff teams from this year are losing a bunch of starters and getting new coaches. Oregon, FSU, and LSU are all losing prolific QBs. tOSU will have a new QB as well and their roster is starting to show some cracks. Only Georgia is in as good a position for 2024 as we are.
  4. I was pretty surprised that we took a 3rd portal receiver given that resources are finite and we have several talented underclassmen who are now transfer risks. The flip side is that our draw for WRs is very strong right now. Our top 4 pass catchers are about to be drafted (3 in the first two rounds), we return a very experienced QB, and our offensive coaching staff is all in place. Seems possible that maybe we did just want two, all three guys wanted in, we didn't need to be the absolute highest bidder, and they were too good to say no to.
  5. This guy looks like he was built in a lab to play tackle, but Burke abused him in our game against them. Didn't look like he had improved a ton by the time of the playoffs, either. I'm guessing he got the honors based on his recruiting ranking and heavy playing time for a playoff team.
  6. We still owe OU a couple 60-spots in my ledger book. I'm not forgetting that horseshit anytime soon.
  7. What's really gonna be funny is watching her kiss the ring after Trump buries her with unhinged birther conspiracies. Just like Cruz, Lindsey Graham, and so on. I'll never get tired of watching them humiliate themselves.
  8. What's confounding to me is that Jerry made his money wildcatting. He has a reputation as a very good businessman. You'd think a guy with that profile would be accustomed to pushing his chips all in and taking big swings. But he's consistently shown himself to be extremely risk-averse in his management of the team. Safe coaching choices like Garrett and McCarthy and letting them hang on too long because the team is posting decent regular season records. Perpetually kicking the contract can down the road for his favorite players instead of making the hard decision. Where's the sense of ruthlessness? This is what happens when you have an entire organization in service to one person's ego.
  9. During the football game ABC just flashed a graphic showing that like 70% did not believe that Biden’s win was legitimate. We’re so unbelievably fucked.
  10. 6’2” 278? He’d have to eat Silas Bolden to get up to Flood’s preferred size.
  11. I’m confused by that. We’re going to allocate resources to THREE portal WR? Does Johntay Cook still exist?
  12. That's a great episode. Liked the message and it's one my kids need to hear. I interpreted it as Afghanistan. His letter said it's super hot. Not sure Australia sent people to Iraq, but definitely Afghanistan. Isn't every wife a throw blanket hoarder?
  13. Honestly I bet that shit is delicious. Just not sure it’s worth peeing out my butt for a few days.
  14. Going in March. First time. Very excited. Sunday-Friday trip. A couple random questions: Is Xochimilco a full day if we decide to do it? Opinions seem really mixed. On the fence as a first-timer. Worth trying to get out of the city? Not overnight but for a day trip maybe? I've seen people mention Tepoztlan, dunno where else. Puebla? Cuernavaca? What would be the best way to achieve that? what do y'all do for cash while there? I assume a lady standing under a tent selling tortas ain't taking no MasterCard. I'm paranoid as fuck about Montezuma's revenge. I know bottled water only, no raw veggies, etc. But how do you avoid ice in cocktails, etc? I do plan to have a cocktail or two. I'm sure I'll come back and bump this thread a few more times as we get closer.
  15. For purely selfish reasons, I hope they don't move or reschedule Bills/Steelers. Will be great TV from the comfort of my couch.
  16. Serious candidate speculation? Just saw Dan Lanning on Twitter. I think Dabo missed his chance. DeBoer? Lane?
  17. There's a sitting National Championship coach out there just waiting for that call, Bama. Plus, he's recently come into a large amount of money (around $75m), so I bet he'd work for cheap.
  18. Don't forget the part where he apparently left it up to FSU's compliance people to let Colorado know that he was backing out.
  19. It is time has come, obviously
