  1. That would be a fair point to make even publicly, and Alleva should, if that was the stumbling block. But without specifics it could appear he is making a personality conflict or other "soft issue" points, and that's just not a good look to do in public. Fisher may be a shitty dude that everyone knows but it makes Alleva look like he is out there trying to make some personal points against Fisher.
  2. i think that is more of a possibility than most Aggies are willing to accept.
  3. what's the scuttle on him? i honestly don't know.
  4. oh, i think i know who you're talking about; neither materialized. all good.
  5. the dude is made of glass. Maybe Az St situation will work out better for him. highly rated (top 20 rated OT out of high school, IIRC) but never lived up to the potential. Wrong evals happen with OLs.
  6. So basically innuendo without any details, from a has-been retired dude, trying to milk some time in the press while "his" team tries to win the big game. Maybe he personally didn't like Fisher and sought out "friends in ACC" who will confirm his bias. Maybe they didn't want to pay the money it would take to land Herman or Fisher (as stated in the article). Maybe Fisher was demanding more control than Alleva wanted to hand over. Without Alleva being specific about his criticism of Fisher it feels like Alleva just having a personal axe to grind but doing it publicly.
  7. who? He is from Hallsville, TX. 6'7, 330 lbs. 64th rated OT.
  8. Even the turning wheel has a hakenkreuz on it. reference to the corps/hitler youth? hmm
  9. This. From Jimbo's viewpoint, if guys leave early, better that they go for the draft than to the transfer portal; glad that Preston didn't prematurely decide to leave, because just like that he may get his shot at pretty good playing time next season and onward. In the PP (post portal) era, corches probably have to keep recruiting the damn recruits even when they're on campus, especially the ones with talent who know (or think they know) they have talent.
  10. Maybe he saw jake fromm declaring and thought "shit, if he can go pro I can too" Jake, Fromm state Farm aggy? that is like the worlds colliding or something?
  11. point taken. work ethic, opportunity presented, innate abilities, all that good stuff. can't be easily translated over. anyways, i liked the more pertinent (and erm pointed?) point someone else made, about all these guys not wanting to wait around until next year when A&M finally wins it all... they obviously don't know shit from shinola. haha
  12. Renfro seemed to have improved this year, tbh. better coverage skills, stride for stride matching receivers; ability to jam receiver at LOS to prevent free release; and more than anything else, looking for the ball and thus avoiding obvious 15-yard defensive PIs. Granted, all this is expected from a corner from the get-go. So maybe Linguist at least brought Debby-One to par? Good luck to him in the next level... CFL, NFL, XFL, whatever.
  13. Rogers had a nagging injury bug this year, just FYI. He should do well in NFL. Mike Evans did ok.
  14. got punked by brewster. such is life for us Aggies.
  15. so you're saying that wasn't any gouda? Ricotta be kidding me!
  16. Jumbo effect even bigger than Gunnell affect/effect/defect.
  17. A surprise from Surprise, AZ. hmmm One of those under-the-radar guys. Way better than Bijan. ;) Station is lit already even from getting whiffed by Brewster! :D ;)
  18. Isn't it usually the case that coaches go hunting for assistants in their own coaching tree first and then cast the net wider? Jimbo having longer experience than Herman is more likely to have coaching connections and people he has worked with or has recommendations on. Isn't that also why UT may be looking at bunch of assistant coaches who all coached at Shippensburg Univ in PA 10 years ago, as one of the resident denizens of this forum pointed out a while back? :) Only a guy like Saban can bring in fired head coaches at big P5 schools and have them as assistants or analysts. Most other corches, sitting or standing national championship winners or not, tend to stick to guys they know and have worked with in the past.
  19. So you're comparing Texas to Rutgers in this scenario?! Fadil Diggs' home state doesn't really have a big time college football program last I checked (nor an NFL one, while we're looking. haha) State of Texas has established college football programs and still plenty of top talent goes out of state for various reasons, and not all go to top programs out of state; some last year ended up at Illinois, for example.
  20. Surly you jest? Is there smoke on Diggs looking to Penn State, or is Penn State suddenly pursuing him more? I don't have any insider info. The Inky had an article on him from the time of his verbal back in the Spring. A&M's DL coach is a graduate of Diggs' high school and they two seem to have bonded well. The current coach of his high school also ended up down south, to Tulane, for his college playing days. https://www.inquirer.com/high-school-sports/new-jersey/recruiting-football-south-jersey-fadil-diggs-woodrow-wilson-texas-20190805.html
  21. That last poll is kinda cool also on the fact that Ms. "I'm top tier candidate" Kamala Harris got polled lower than Tulsi Gabbard who she thought she could just ignore and/or send her communications strategist on twitter to badmouth. But ever since Tulsi landed that punch on Kamala in the August debate, Kamala has been sucking for air.
  22. I see your point, but also question what is being asked here; are transgendered people currently not given equal access to menstruation health and hygiene products? They can buy the same range of products that women can, isn't it?
  23. She just scored 5% on a qualifying poll today (CNN); that makes 2 qualifying polls towards the November debate, and the latest one also goes towards one of two required for the December debates as well. Go Tulsi!
  24. may be use your tantric powers and energy more wisely.
