  1. for anyone subscribing to dumb zone podcasts . . how is the listening experience? most podcasts i end up listening to a day or 3 (or month) later, and i just don't know how much life affords listening to them immediately / how much i will care about listening to their cowboys takes a week later.

    oh and jub is on his deathbed, only semi joking. 

    they killed the single most entertaining thing on the station. dammit.

    We always enjoy your breakdowns of the oncoming season for the aggies. 

    You never really go into the schedule as part of your analysis, but it varies so much from year to year that it plays a big role. The opener should be a cakewalk, but that was presumed about SHSU last season. I actually think it will be somewhat telling. If it's a blowout for 40+ points, the floor should be considered higher for the season. If it's another 30-0 kind of snoozer, that wouldn't make me feel good if I was a fan.

    Then @ Miami, and who knows what happens with either team heading into that one? Down the line a stretch of Auburn (who Freeze is telling recruits is going to suck this season, so, yeah), neutral Arkansas, Bama, @Tennessee over a 4 week stretch seems tough. It is that string of games which should test ATM's depth. If they navigate it without a slew of injuries and go 2-2 or better record during those games, ATM will probably have a good season.

    Depth seems like it is easily the biggest risk on the season. Stay healthy and good things happen. Get hurt at WR, OL, LB, or CB and you're in trouble. Then there's the whole team culture and staff culture thing, which could be a problem.

    honestly, i can barely keep up with our roster in the transfer era, much less what others are doing. agreed that the opener will be interesting, especially as new mexico will throw a ton of shit at a relatively questionable oline. auburn will be interesting but if we can't beat hugh freeze in year one . . . well, there are bigger issues at play. 

    don't see any possible issues with culture, should be great there.

    Don't start sandbagging on us now. Where is the prediction post? It's about that time of year again. 

    not going to lie, having spent the previous 60 days in bozeman i am more disconnected from collegiate football than i have ever been, however that will not stop me from making my always 100% accurate season prediction this week as soon as i sober up.

  5. great band. also check out bonny light horsemen with eric, anais mitchell and josh kaufman. similar vibes, first album was all covers, second all originals.

  6. norm is such an odd character, just a guy that 100% cares about sports and talking about them to the absence of seemingly anything else. even during the last week, the 'tributes' to him from other shows don't mention anything about him personally, just fake norm bits, real e-brakes and talk about how many years he's been there. god bless donovan for putting up with that over the past decade.

    Losses from the 22 class:

    5️ Lucas
    5️ Marshall
    5️ D Harris
    4️ Williams
    4️ MGK
    4️ Bouie
    4️ I Harris


     

    an attempt to be rational take on these, ignoring the overall program trajectory flying over niagara falls in a flaming yell leader onesie:

    - we're still battling to keep lucas, but losing him would suck. talented kid, good kid, hard worker, fucked up last fall but has a real future.

    - chris marshall was never going to make it at a&m, which sucks as he's insanely talented, but hard to blame this one on our staff. needs to get his shit together. 

    - denver harris isn't a bad guy, but not mature enough at this point. will probably go be a two time all-american at lsu, huge loss. 

    - pj williams is a loss, but another guy that just couldn't handle the transition. also we need tackles. 

    - i hated losing mgk. loved his hs film more than anyone else in the class. ultimately was here for nick williams who went to colorado. doesn't really like school. 

    - bouie was always a flight risk, but probably the lowest floor of the kids that have left. will be interesting to see what his career does.

    - ish harris was a mis-eval from the day he stepped on campus, would be shocked if he does anything. 

    the top 5 guys on that list are real hits from a talent perspective, but if jimbo has a chance in hell at righting this ship, it isn't happening with chris marshall and denver harris (at this point in time) on the roster. really curious what happens to this roster in the spring.

    Didn't realize most people didn't like Ben & Skin until this thread. I thought they were universally liked (besides me).

    i like skin on the mavs. they were a perfect weekend show as that feels like about all the time they have to fill. attempted to listen to the freak morning show yesterday. fucking worse than norm.
