  1. I think Sark is going to have to figure out a way to manage Arch's development if Quinn comes back in a way where he won't look to leave.
  2. I obviously took it the other way, which could be my mistake. I suppose his next comment doesn't really clear it up either, depending on the point of view. If Ewers comes back he's starting, to be clear on my opinion.
  3. Let me tell you what Elko's plans are for College Station:
  4. I dunno man, I'm not going to get to bent out of shape about it either way. I suppose leave, from your point of view. Certainly you didn't think Quinn Ewers not getting the draft grade he wanted and telling people he was thinking about returning meant he was going to return to...be a backup QB, get less reps, less chance to improve his draft status, etc. And honestly, there would be some serious shit written about Sark for choosing to do such a thing. Ewers is either going pro, coming back to start, or transferring to start. I don't have any inside information on this or anything, but I view that last option to be...really fucking unlikely.
  5. A floor for all players was certainly an idea. Practical experience...not the best idea.
  6. Give me aTm fan assuming Leonard is following Elko, get excited about the prospect of him, only to have him bail for a real school and for Weigman to retire or transfer as well. Buddy...if Ewers comes back that is not how it's going to work. For a number of reasons.
  7. Great post. And now I'm confused that I find myself agreeing with everything you said, when I fully expected a long winded explanation of how Gundy did a superior coaching job to Sark this season for the opposite of all the things you said.
  8. My favorite part is that they say print media is dead, then go on to talk about internet and news, while generally ignoring the fact that pretty much every "print" media also posts all the articles and opinions online, interact through social media, article comments, etc. But yeah, The Houston Chronicle is print media, so it's dead. Fucking morons.
  9. Did the OP copy and paste his question from a wesbite with black text and just hit enter? Or did he choose do do that on purpose?
  10. If we lose some of the young guys at DB, then absolutely, we're going to be needing to hit the portal fairly aggressively. If we can retain everyone but Allen and Hyphen, I think we're ok. The OL is almost certainly going to give us all some heartburn this offseason.
  11. I enjoy this as well. Elko by definition was a Fisher guy. Also, holy shit Trooper Taylor is not only still alive but he's now a head coach.
  12. Well, I'm on my desktop, so it's probably a facet of home row typing and a general disdain for editing.
  13. I think your iphone must have auto-corrected from "knock up his date"
  14. That's pretty interesting. They get their NIL shit together after that QB decommitted becuase they couldn't cut the checks they promised and headed to Arizona State? Becuase that was a bad fucking look.
  15. If you think Roberson is a Star, then you need to add Austin Jordan to the safety group, which is another body. I don't give a fuck about Corner, we're going to be fine there. See below. Ding Ding Ding. Hence why I referenced a full year of nutrition and strength and conditioning.
  16. Considering all the McDonald to linebacker talk, when I saw him play he was smaller than I expected. Granted, he hasn't had a full nutrition and weight cycle yet, but safety seems a good fit. Dude looked smaller than Catalon.
  17. Shrug. We didn't really count on him this year either. So its the same lottery ticket at the position, IMO.
  18. I've got a pretty good idea, and it involces being distracted:
  19. Sir, I mentioned Hyphen. AND Allen as likely (my opinion) transfers. You've got Taffe, Catalon, Williams, Roberson, 3 incoming Freshmam (including Filsame) that are studs, of which I think 1 will be able to win snaps. You've also McDonald and Jordan, two guys who could probably cross train between Star and Safety. You say 11 bodies, and I see 9 bodies that can play safety, with a couple at star. That doesn't seem like all that big of a difference to me, espescially if we cut out the fucking heavy rotation bullshit and play more of our best players. So yeah, you add a Bryce Anderson level guy if he's there, and that's 10 bodies versus 11 to play the two safety spots. How is that lean? Also, I'm guessing one of Hyphen or Allen (Hyphen) will stick through spring practice and see if they can make a dent.
  20. AFter playing 30+ snaps a game all season, plus bowl practices and spring practice, I'm willing to call Derek Williams a veteran. He's about to be joined by other younger players, most likely, and unless the perfect safety hits the market, like say Bryce Anderson, I'm not sure I bite. Catalon is coming back, I believe. Warren Roberson has looked fucking great in practice. Nahlin says Jelani McDonald might be getting the safety or star treatment. Hampton, Rubell, and maybe Filisame are coming in looking to play. I think we still have Taffe. And the guys we're losing for depth will be addition by subtraction in the form of Crawford, Jerrin Thompson (fuck, doesn't he have a Covid year?), I'm assuming BJ Allen is gone, I'm assuming that Larry Turner-Gooden is gone. With the talent coming in, I'm just not sure we go after a safety unless they're elite already. Safety isn't our biggest portal need, imo.
  21. As Js1 intimates, the guy who needed the tailored Texans Jersey was Iconoclast Texan, now known as Macklemore.
  22. You think the problem with that scenario is that Elko didn’t have the money to buy a hideous maroon suit that no one outside of CS or accepting a job at aTm would wear? in guessing the problem is that they fucking insisted he wear that piece of shit to that press conference as part of his contract stipulation and college station is an Off the Rack Big & Tall type town. That used tent from a surplus store wasn’t just hanging in his closet prior to this week waiting for the magical day. also he’s just a fat drunken slob.
