  1. Are there any reports of Jordan Washington looking like he might be a terror up the seam or a mauling blocker on the edge after having a year in the weight room and some growth? I don't mind deluding myself in my own wishfulness until September. Is he even in the realm of challenging Endries? I went full nerd and perused Cal boards about their thoughts on Endries. The two main vibes I got were that they were super disappointed to lose him and that they were underwhelmed with his blocking ability. Also, Cal boards are super depressing. Even the ACC thinks they suck. One of the more prolific Cal posters claimed that Endries will be Arch's version of David Thomas. And I only remembered that because that seemed unusually savvy for a Cal fan to have that much UT knowledge.
  2. Not trying to be harsh. I like the guy and have heard he's a great teammate. I'm not bashing the dude. There's a huge gap between him and the other backs Texas has been fortunate enough to see in the last 4 or 5 seasons. I don't believe he's that dangerous back that requires attention every down. It's not an insult to say a running back isn't Bijan or Brooks. It's not an insult to tell Manu Ginobili "you weren't Kobe." Dab some salve on chili dog's labia and we'll get back to the passing game.
  3. I like him. I think he's a tough player. But his presence was completely meaningless in 3 of the last 4 games of the season. He dropped at the slightest contact in those games. If you're so easily persuaded by highlight compilations, go watch any of his carries against ASU, Georgia or OSU. He's a serviceable back. Not elite. He won't be the lead running back by the end of the season.
  4. I don't really understand how people could dislike Ed Orgeron.
  5. "I ain't the one" also sucks.
  6. Yeah, I witnessed that. I'm just not convinced he's an elite back. He averaged less than 3 yds a carry in 3 of 4 of the last games. Those are good defenses. But he was pointless in those games. And lots of people ran well against Clemson. Last year he was generally as good as the blocking provided. If you want to luxuriate in your sunshine enema on the guy, great. High five for your positivity. Shiny happy people.
  7. Wisner had a thousand yards last year by running for only what his blocking provided -- never really creating any plays beyond that. He'll be better this year but who knows by how much. If he gets 190 carries this season he'll hit a thousand again. But it doesn't feel like we have anyone in the backfield who can bust something wide open, like what Blue did against Clemson. And that kind of sucks.
  8. CTJ hates white people. He once burned a Bucc ees beaver in effigy in front of my house. Spray painted "chalky go home" on the garage, which didn't make sense because i was home. Put a hate letter in the mailbox addressed to "milky." He refers to a group of 3 or more Caucasians as "Idaho." Urinated on Jason Sehorn's front porch in front of Angie Harmon.
  9. Yeah, it's weird. I also recently figured out you could change defensive assignments based on position group rather than having to cycle through the whole defense. D pad twice to the right brings up the entire d line. Pick the edge player and drop them in a seam flat, spy, etc. D pad twice to the left brings up linebackers. Triangle twice brings up secondary. Had no idea i could stay on my user player and direct these other assignments without cycling to each player. Pretty cool. Something they could've told me ... yesterday.
  10. An especially bad decision in a high swangas demographic.
  11. One thing that helps with that is pressing R3. When you see the qb start to drift outside and you know they're gonna run press R3 like a button. It tells your entire defense to head back up-field to tackle. Of course they have nothing to indicate this for you.
  12. You ain't missing anything
  13. I'm just assuming there is. There has to be.
  14. Acho's manufactured personality is hard to watch even in small clips. He's just awful.
  15. AB will blow his own cover in 20 minutes when he livestreams in front of the Buc ees in Daytona Beach.
  16. How many bridges got built? Fill any potholes? No? Then I don't care.
  17. "... wants to be male doctor."
  18. EJ Holland was jeered away from covering Notre Dame and is now seemingly despised by every Michigan fan who follows recruiting. I had no idea he was doing the same shit with the wolverine beat. Apparently he's in constant squabbles with parents and the staff views him as nothing but an idiotic liability. And he holds weird vendettas against players who box him out and will troll them with petty barbs throughout their college careers. He's halfway to being as bizarre as Taylor hamm.
  19. Password is definitely 69_420 because comedy.
