What happened to Mowry? Did he end up not qualifying, he's not on 247's list?
he's on campus, and i predict he's starting by mid-year.

Interestingly, I think different people have different opinions.
I always thought Turner was a meat-headed fucktard as evidenced by his inexcusable conduct at your women's clinic a few years back. He benefited from Sherman's OL evaluations and did nothing of substance on his own.
how many coaches have you met? you do realize the vast majority of them would be teaching elementary school kinesiology if the college football coaching market suddenly went away tomorrow.

Turner was overrated. He also has family/friend connections that got him his job in Cincy. It can be both. I don’t think he was told to look around, however. He can suck and still get a better gig. See Mo Linguist, for example. Turner was specifically weak at recruiting and evaluation, as I remember it.
turner's a very, very good technical coach. he also was never a big fan of recruiting and fell in love with frames he thought he could do something with (my theory). henson was probably supposed to be a step up in recruiting and step back in coaching, but it turns out he's sucked ass at both. good times.
in answer to the linguist question, i think the guy is somewhere between we didn't want to lose / we can replace him. he was apparently mccarthy's first choice at db, which surprised me, but he got a lot of shit from a&m fans he probably didn't deserve. jimbo drives the bus to a pretty strong degree on offers and recruitments, and i think he did decently well considering who we targeted.

Since Jimbo got hired
AD: Scott Woodward (LSU) - money
AD for Player Personnel: Austin Thomas (Baylor) - money
Executive Director of Recruiting: Leah Knight (retired from Football) - who knows
TE: Tim Brewster (UNC) - "family in the area" - no jimbo
TE: Joe Jon Finley (Ole Miss) - "friend coaches there" - no jimbo
OL: Jim Turner (Cincinnati Bengals) - NFL
RB: Jay Graham (Tennessee) - played there and money
DB: Mo Linguist (Dallas Cowboys) - NFL
LB: Bradley Dale Peveto (retired from football) - is he retiring?
Coaches who are still there from the beginning
DC: Mike Elko (trying to get that northeast HC job. No offers yet)
DE: Terry Price (The Oscar Giles of A&M. Played at Aggy. Coaches at Aggy. same shitty recruiting)
DT: Elijah Robinson (Good coach. Sad Rhule didn't give him a Panther bid)
OC: Darrell Dickey (this guy is getting paid to be assistant to OC Jimbo)
WR: Dameyune Craig (bagman gonna bag)
people we did not want to lose: woodward, austin thomas, brewster
people we liked but are replaceable: leah knight and her tight shirts, joe jon finley, jay graham
people we actively encouraged to look around or told to leave: jim turner (jimbo and an ol coach not getting along, bizarre), bradley dale peveto
people we will lose at some point and almost guaranteed to have a drop in production: elko, elijah robinson

Saying he's a more accomplished position coach than Craig isn't saying much.
i believe our first call was to vince okruch but he turned us down immediately.

He's a bagman that can't coach. He's Dameyune Craig's twin.
he's a much more accomplished position coach than craig and short of brewster coming back, was about as solid a hire as we could have hoped for.
he was fucking horrific at coordinating georgia's offense last year, although part of me wonders how much kirby played a part.

TJ Rushing to CB coach at aggy, it appears. Don’t know a lot about him honestly (was at Memphis and went to FSU with Norvell and crew) but a hot mug of monkey shit is better than Linguist, so ...
i heard the cowboys hired linguist precisely because they thought he sucked so bad.

Funny note: in 2018, A&M took five RBs. All five are already off their roster.
they don't call him the silent assassin for nothing.

You don't think there's a concern at corner?
i think depth is a concern. blades is good if he can get his shoulder right. the coaches love brian george, although the juco leap is always scary. myles jones isn't the worst 3rd corner to have, and devin morris was coming on at nickel late in the year.
really need jaylon jones to live up to the hype.

Why don't you walk us through what you think they are, and in priority of concern?
1. oline. talent. don't have it. not a position you can fake it either, especially under the scheme we're running. does henson know what he's doing? are he and jimbo on the same page? weird smoke signals here.
2. kellen mond. what the fuck is he? if his absolute ceiling is a 65% completion rate, let's make the offense a bit more friendly towards him.
3. running back. i like spiller a lot as a #2. unfortunately he's our #1 without much else behind him. who gets other snaps?
everywhere else, the talent is either there to compete, or getting there. by and large i love what elko is doing. for all the bitching, jimbo was handed a 10 year contract largely on the basis of his success on offense, and come hell or high water he's going to do what he's always done. we'll see if he can either put enough talent on the field to make it work, or if the lack of adaptation ultimately eats him.

I hope Rogers gets a combine invite because NFL teams will fall in love with him. The dude is a physical freak at his size. The fact A&M couldn't use him in a similar role as Collin Johnson is kind of insane. Just throw the ball up and he can beat most DBs at the point of attack.
wait, now he's good again?
and while he's one of the more frustrating guys i can remember in recent history given his size / speed / hands / football acumen combination, i think we've got bigger issues than replacing his 30 catches and 2 (two) touchdowns.

The difference is that Eric Dickerson clearly didn't want to end up at aTm
or did he?

new bombay bicycle club coming 1/17, the early singles are solid.

Man, no other fanbase takes this kind of shit from their mods. It's like some S&M shit.
the self loathing of the humans that work for billy liucci is kind of incredible.

while i put on my maroon gas mask and inhale a massive does of signing day smoke - i think this is a pretty damn solid class, and probably one offensive tackle (sheppard?) and another corner from being elite. the pressure is on jaylon jones and josh moten to both become good players, and george to get up to speed quick, if he even arrives in the summer.
i don't understand punting ellison and keeping dallas walker, but they seem to love the kid, and auburn was heavy after him. the mowry, harris, diggs trio is going to result in at least one guy that's really good there if not two, and if doyle can keep his head on straight he's going to be in the mix immediately.
if nothing else, jimbo has greatly increased the athleticism across the roster, but not sure how high the ceiling gets if we can't get better offensive linemen and corners.

Yup. Talented, but pretty much every other program backed off.
tbh, that's the only way we get anyone.

Sounds like a Linguist Special. Enjoy him and Jaylon Jones at CB for the next four years!
i'm on record as thinking jaylon jones can play cb. i don't think burns can, nor do i think he ends up our class.
7 minutes ago, Mitch Cumsteen said:I'm kind of in this boat too. I haven't watched him enough to make a bold "Sam Bradford seems like he sucks" call that would backfire curse him into a Heisman trophy, but the few times I did see him, I never thought I was seeing a generational talent. An excellent running back? Sure. But Adrian Peterson-level can't miss hall of fame level level running back? I didn't get that impression.
he reminds me a ton of christine michael. tests off the chart, but something seems missing from his vision / production that the truly elite have.

That's an interesting trap door. Kid was underrated when aTm was all over him, but he blew up later. I haven't looked at his tape, but he's a highly ranked kid. Seemed like he was LSU good, plus from the boot.
he's a hell of a player, but i don't think he can play corner at the next level. lsu's in state recruiting is hilarious.

has anyone talked about the new coldplay album? i think they pretty much lost the plot with everything after viva la vida (besides a few random singles here and there), but i really have enjoyed everyday life. some filler, but church, orphans, eko, old friends, everyday life are all great. am getting old as hell, but have unexpectedly enjoyed this.

I hope you’re right, and generally agree, but all 3 of those schools are losing after this season. Bama loses like 24 seniors, likely 5-6 underclassmen to the draft including 2-3 wrs and Tua. Auburn loses, if memory serves, every starter in the trenches on both sides of the ball. LSU will be lucky to keep Brady, they lose Burrow and a ton of upperclassmen talent and Delpit and some other JRs also. I’ve seen all the discussions on Brady and that LSU “will do whatever it takes to keep him” and while that is certainly well and good, I think the odds are more in favor of him getting something he can’t refuse from somewhere else and it isn’t as if he’s in a haven of intellectual development for his future right now. No doubt Kyrie Eleison will shit himself in a fury to tell me how wrong I am, but I’ll stand by my objective position and dismiss an LSU imbecile’s whines.
i can masturbate to this.
and yes, auburn loses all the players. will be interesting to see what the bama / lsu rosters and coaches look like next year.
