    looks like Breckyn Hager.  Has anyone checked to confirm we don't have a  Ron McElvy situation going on again? 

    Katfid, you're not going to get rid of your reputation if you forget to log out of your SoC.

    Samples went from bringing whoever we wanted to Texas from duncanville to trying to get them to SMU. To do that, he didn’t completely shit on texas, because he’s not an idiot, but he certainly didn’t help our cause. He’s not an angel, but he’s not burning bridges. It’s fine. He knows that if he can get 4*s to SMU on his own, his next step is a texas level job as an assistant. He’s not going to help texas out at his own expense 

    Herman isn’t shitting on Samples, and Samples Sr isn’t shitting on Texas

     

    Agreed. Samples is just doing his job, recruiting kids to his current employer. That's what he should be doing.

    Does concrete have much expansion/contraction in 100 sunny degrees vs 80 non radiant degrees?  

    Depends on what you consider "much."  For a 20 degree Fahrenheit rise, concrete will expand about 1.6 cm over a 100 meter length. Not a lot for a stadium, considering the preformed bleacher sections don't seem to be much longer than 15-20 meters. If it's sunny, the concrete temperature could be higher than air temperature and expand more, but not an order of magnitude more.

    those orange seats do not look good to me. I like everything else, maybe it will look better with people but right now it does not.

    Agre.ed on the orange seats. The orange seats make it hard to see the logo, which is supposed to be one of the design focal points.

    easier to renege on a deal when it's UCLA or Cal, harder when the opposite party has battleships and cruise missiles

    The Navy doesn't have any active battleships.

  6. I don't really have any suggestions for the governor of New Jersey. Not having other options doesn't make confiscation better. I acknowledge they are in dilemma.

    I'm not sure what you are trying to say in your last paragraph. You seem to be arguing that historical wrong doing makes modern wrong doing more palatable. But, I'm confused why you would include internment. I don't think you meant to argue that we should be doing that. That sentence seems to weaken your argument that precedent makes this confiscation order less onerous.

    Did you see that the governor of New York is ordering that ventilators and other equipment be transferred from upstate New York hospitals be transferred to the city? How do you feel about that?

    The economic and public health fallout would be far worse and go on much longer if we sit around and let this thing spread. Near term pain is worth it - the economy can't stand on it's own if the virus continues to spread and the health care system is overwhelmed. Not to mention the loss of life 

     

    Is your viewpoint that any measure is acceptable?  Anything you wouldn't agree to?  What if these drastic measures aren't enough and the healthcare system is overwhelmed anyways?

  8. As more and more states increase efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19 and the restrictions on citizens and business get more strict, a question comes to mind.  These restrictions are already causing massive damage to the economy.  People are losing jobs. Small businesses face difficult times.  Retirement accounts are getting hammered.  Personal liberty has been severely restricted.

     

    Is there a limit to how for we are willing to go?  Is there any point where the damage to society as a whole is greater than the damage of allowing the disease to spread?  If so, what do you those limits look like?

     

    I'm not trying to say we shouldn't do anything.  This is obvious unprecedented territory.  But, I do think we need to consider all the ramifications of the preventative actions.

    Interior border patrol checkpoints are bullshit

    I don't disagree, but how effing dumb do you have to be to not drive a different route when you have that much drugs?  These morons couldn't be bothered to add a couple hours to the trip and drive through Amarillo?

    Cool, thanks.  I don't recall, do refs have the authority to toss a player for egregious unsportsmanlike?  If so, this would have been a good candidate for that kind of action.

     

    Yes for flagrant unsportsmanlike.   Unsportsmanlike Conduct is a non-contact foul.  It is things like taunting and over celebration.  I've never seen a flagrant unsportsmanlike called with ejection.  It would probably have to be something racist.  Two regular unsportsmanlike conduct fouls is also an automatic ejection.

    An official can also eject for a flagrant personal foul.  That push on Sam was a personal foul because it resulted from contact.  Two or more personal foul is not an automatic ejection.

    I would be leery of hiring defensive coordinators from the Big Ten. Playing defense in the Big 12 is a completely different animal, Orlando would look great against Big Ten offenses.

    I don't disagree with the first sentence, but do disagree with the second.  Missed tackles would against Big Ten teams would be killer.  Missing a tackle and turning a two yard run into 4 or 5 extends drives.  Big Ten teams would score less points on him than Big 12 teams, but they would use more clock and our offense would score even less.
