  1. Q. Over these eight practices, what did you and your defensive staff see from Cort to have confidence in giving him a start today, and with you being down a few linebackers, how big was his play? HEAD COACH TOM HERMAN: Oh, yeah, Cort's a great story. You know, if there was a Scout Team Player of the Year award, he would have won it probably back-to-back years. He's really tough, really physical and just understands football. He sees the game really, really well, and we knew that -- you know, we were going to be short in that area, especially with Joe and Jeff playing close to the line of scrimmage needing those guys to play close to the line of scrimmage. We were going to need him to be in that rotation and he came through in a big way.
  2. You know HankScorpio is a satire account, right(albeit a pretty hilarious one)? I'm a little new here but I thought that was pretty widely known?
  3. No, no Ohio State fan is fitting into an xs.
  4. Flying in for either/both. Would like to cut out online sellers fees.
  5. Is there a way to neg someone who's posts you have on ignore. Asking for a friend....
  6. I think you need a mixture of high floor, lower ceiling players as well as the more high ceiling, low floor players. Obviously, the highest ranked players tend to be more of the high floor/high ceiling types but this staff has done a great job of identifying and acquiring talent beyond the no brainer players. As the hopefully 3rd take on the defensive line, Fillinger offers that high floor player, who has some measureables (elite shuttle) which may translate to unexpected athleticism. He's also a high effort, relentless player who will be great in terms of culture fit and program mentality. Very, very excited about this pickup. He's a guy that needs a couple years to percolate and then unleash as a RS soph. Additionally, and this is probably an old guy preference but I'm a fan of players that have low key recruitments.
  7. OU 2021: Too many dicks, not enough bags? OU 2021: #WhoNeedsDefense
  8. So how do you really feel about Craig? Please don't keep sugar coating it.
  9. Delusion is rarely based on immutable facts. I know every fanbase has it's idiots but the Aggies definitely seem to have more of them. No one knows how Herman or Jimbo will do long term. However, there are enough data points to suggest that Jimbo requires a significant talent differential in order to be successful and that no matter how well he recruits, he's unlikely to have that talent differential when Alabama, LSU and Georgia are in his conference. There's also enough evidence to suggest that Herman is a good coach even without a large talent disparity that likely translates into even greater success when you start to get a healthy flow of talent in. By any measure, both teams had great recruiting classes. I think Herman's recent history argues that he's a better judge of under the radar talent but either way, Aggy had a good class. I just don't think it'll be enough to overcome Fisher's history of poor offensive line development, his antiquated offensive philosophy, and the general suckitude that is Aggy.. Still, it's cute that they are so focused on Herman and big brother that they can't see this. It'll make the inevitable tears even sweeter.
  10. Thanks @sushihorn for the great write-ups and discussion prior to and after the game. I'm hoping a similar game plan will be successful against lsu, which seems to be built similarly to Georgia
  11. I'd assume he's a tackle if he's already that big as a sophomore. It'll be good to have two brockermeyers on campus. We need a Studdard, Blaylock and Neil as well
  12. Is there a need to make homophobic slurs? It sounds a little Aggy. I mean, Baylor is Rape U. It's not only pejorative but also false.
  13. If only recruiting nuggets were like chicken nuggets....
  14. We will win because ou sucks. I will enjoy sending that inbred trailer trash home with another loss.
  15. Per OB, another Grayson player coming with Watson and Pappoe Kenyon Jackson https://rivals.com/content/prospects/30525
