  1. Actually, it looks like Wescott Eberts ate a clone of himself and crapped it out whole.
  2. I thought I read that we could add 2 even after Mathis and Johnson. If I'm wrong, we can deport all of our Australians.
  3. I do realize that. However, there are legitimate reasons for optimism regarding Mathis and Caleb Johnson. The point is this....Sark is trying in regards to improving the defensive front 7 via the portal. If we were to miss on both of those guys, and other options hit the portal at DE and LB, I fully expect Sark to try for them as well. Sark really believes in the guys we will be starting at OL this season. He has ignored the o-line in the portal for 2 off-seasons. Maybe he is right and I am wrong. Sark does know exponentially more about football than I ever will...and he is betting his job on these guys.
  4. I don't think the offense is held to a higher standard than the defense. Our defense was a disaster last year and, comparatively speaking, was a lesser unit when compared to our offense. However, you see more people currently freaking out about our OL than our defensive front 7 because Sark is taking steps to immediately address our defensive front 7 via the portal, while ignoring the same for the o-line. IF the tables were turned, and Sark was pushing hard for a couple of portal Offensive Tackles while ignoring DE and LB, more people would be freaking out about the D. This is not an either/or conversation. We could still bring in Mathis, the UCLA (former Texas) LB and a couple of (average) OTs. I am still holding out hope it all happens.
  5. When a team starts a new QB behind a (well) below average offensive line, what happens? Now, that same team is poor at generating a pass rush and has joke LBs. I will be thrilled with 7 wins.
  6. I think it would send the right message to the team to not have a 5th year guy start if he doesn't deserve to start.
  7. I am as down on Sark and Pete K as anyone, but if they will make this a meritocracy, and bench a 5th year guy for someone like Murphy who (I have heard from multiple analysts) is better, that would be a tremendously positive sign. Let's hope it happens.
  8. One of the most valued metrics in college football models like this is Returning Offensive Line Starts. These models work under the assumption that, if a team is choosing to start a player again, he must be a quality offensive lineman. If a team were to curiously start 4 substandard offensive linemen in consecutive seasons, the model will crank out bad data.

  10. When have we fired someone after 1 or 2 seasons? What are you talking about?
  11. He is very sexual.
  12. I am so jealous of everyone who gets to let loose and enjoy this experience. If it is found out that I consume alcohol again in relation to a sporting event, that judge is going to make me join the Coast Guard.
  13. We've had 12 years of kids saying the right thing and we've fucking sucked for those 12 years.
