  1. I think Karic belongs in both. Maybe sub him out for Johnson at RG in your ideal lineup: Jones - Angilau - Majors - Karic - Hookfin If everyone is heathy and Flood decides that is the best five that would be a really positive sign.
  2. Nothing to do with Acho but I realized I did forget DD Lewis and he belongs on this list. Apologies to DD.
  3. Well you've shifted from scrub who was only on the team due to his brother, to mediocre, to "above average" so that's progress I guess. It's not like linebacker was a storied spot in Mack's run. If's he's not top five tell me who is because we have number 1 with a bullet then it gets tough: DJ, lots of space....then Hicks, Keenan Robinson, Rod Muckelroy, Acho Maybe I'm forgetting someone but who else belongs? Maybe Kelson? GTFO with Aaron Harris, Bobino, or Killabew.
  4. Come on, he was first team all Big 12. Probably in the top 5 linebackers Mack ever put on field. He was a really good college football player.
  5. I understand what you are getting at but you are blaming victims (or at least giving them some responsibility) for the assault of future victims now. I know that probably wasn't your intent but still that can't be where this goes. Sexual assault isn't any other crime. It's knotty and complicated enough without other people trying to tell victims how they should respond it it.
  6. but...if they orchestrated a chain of events that make him an accused sexual predator that may undercut his trade value somewhat.
  7. You know a no trade clause doesn't mean Watson can't be traded right? It just means he has right of refusal. This would be an insane gambit for a franchise to take to try and get a player to accept a trade to a team he doesn't want when you could just trade him to a team that he would happily go to.
  8. Yeah, look at the contract Dak just got. The Watson deal is a ton of money but it's probably already below market value for a QB at his level. There is no reason Houston would pull something to try and void it.
  9. Yeah, I made a post last night downplaying the situation based on a poster's summary of that first filing. Summary was basically: They have a DM conversation where they agree he will fly her in to give a massage, he asks her to massage areas she was uncomfortable with and insists on not being covered during it. She isn't in to it, leaves. Maybe Watson thought he was clearly hiring a sex worker (which as far as I'm concerned it not a big deal for either of them). She wasn't on the same page and got freaked out and bailed. If that's the case, I don't see that anyone did anything "wrong" unless you have a big problem with sex work. Watson should probably be more explicit about his expectations but it's sort of complicated by the fact that it is illegal. Of course maybe he's the kind of creep who gets off on the power imbalance and the pressure involved with pushing people past their comfort zone and knew exactly what he was doing. More women coming forward makes that more and more likely and now we have filings that allege forced sexual acts. That makes the story much more real than it was 24 hours ago. I still have questions about the timing and the Buzbee of it all but that doesn't mean the allegations shouldn't be taken seriously and investigated.
  10. Also really frustrating that Overshown has needed surgery since late last season but only had an MRI last week (per Wells). What the fuck, he could already be like 3 months along in his rehab. No idea if this falls into the Kenyatta Watson/JQJ category of the previous staff possibly mishandling injuries, but I'm still going to blame Herman and his merry band of dipshits.
  11. Not great or exactly in-step with his “great guy” image but if that is all there is it’s kind of hard to imagine this does anything more than further poison the well between Watson and the organization (whether they had anything to do with it or not). Really curious timing all things considered.
  12. Tyler Owens to the white courtesy phone please.
  13. Been texting with some friends in Houston today and everything about Buzbee is pretty confusing. One thing that seems pretty clear is the guy loves to party. Was pretty highly thought of at some point but is mostly a raging lunatic at this point. One part specifically that I'm wondering about: If we take the civil suit at face value (yeah i know)...what would be the point of making that post exactly? If you are really filing to seek justice for your aggrieved and "powerless" client, does making a post like that serve them in any way, strategically or otherwise?
  14. Banks continues to be quite a source-off, neither side is even really hedging much. Funny Perroni is saying Dewberry is even a tighter competition than Banks at this point.
  15. Came over here to post the same thing, seems kind of weird. Coach needs to supplement his income flipping video game systems? I’m going to tell my aggy friends I heard he’s telegraphing to recruits free PS4s for everyone.
  16. This is very funny. He sure took a firm stance on Colt McCoy of all people in that email.
  17. Oh boy. If you gave me this email without a name and gave me about 10 or so chances I think I could have guessed that somebody named “Tanner” wrote it.
  18. Yup, exactly who I was thinking of, thanks. https://247sports.com/player/hoza-scott-13610/ Looks like he was enrolled or maybe committed to Eastern Arizona College for a bit but mostly has dropped off the map.
  19. That's right, Memaw had the entire CSPD under her thumb and was running protection. Now that she's fucked off of Nebraska, Sark has ordered the cops to declare open season on Texas' only SEC West program.
  20. For whatever reason the Demas news today had me thinking of an Aggie recruit but I can't remember his name or exactly how long ago. In the last then years or so probably. Can anybody help me with his name? Linebacker, super athletic 5-star. Never made it to campus because of grades but I think their fan base was strung along for a bit thinking eventually he would enroll. Bonus points if you can tell me what the hell ever happened to the guy and if he ever even played football after high school.
  21. Damn, booked and 2K bond for a little bit of weed. Wait, he's 20 already? Means he turned 19 the first semester of his senior year of HS, did he fail a grade at some point?
