  1. So, basically, UT is in an abusive relationship with 8 deadbeats. Sounds about right. The only great thing about being cast as the villain is you're not responsible for the suffering of others when you leave.
  2. It's like they've never met a Vandy grad. Vanderbilt alums look down at SMU and Baylor alums like they dropped out of Prairie View. The only non-Ivy alums I've met that are worse are Rice grads.
  3. It's probably nothing, but WTF else do we have to gossip about.
  4. That's completely possible, but no fun to speculate about.
  5. Depends on how you look at it. What you're telling me is that Texas is doing everything it can to keep him here and make it look like he's QB1. You're also telling me he could still insta-transfer without graduating and that his ability to graduate by the summer was a known situation forever. Basically, this was foreseeable and meaningless. But my perspective is that if you don't have to graduate to transfer, why graduate? It's like packing a suitcase. It doesn't mean you're leaving, and you could always leave without the suitcase, but it sure makes it hard to argue you don't want to leave.
  6. Grad transfers don't have to apply for the COVID exemption, though. It's an interesting choice for a backup who wants to be the starter, that's all.
  7. It definitely puts the writing on the wall if he's leapfrogged by Card.
  8. Based on all accounts, including someone I know who has met CDC a couple of times, CDC is the ultimate people person. We haven't had someone like him in the program since Mack Brown. I think part of CDC's relationship with FCB is keeping an enemy close. But the other part of it is CDC probably thinks he can run FCB, so long as nobody else feeds him anything. The staff is all pros from top to bottom, so Chip Brown is literally fucked. He has to be a good boy or he's toast.
  9. Pretty sure that's a Submariner. The bezel insert is in minutes, not 24 hours.
  10. They've announced that teams will be picked and that it will be normal football scoring (team vs. team). No live kicking, just offense vs. defense.
  11. I'm sure the towel just "looked small" in comparison.
  12. Man, Leitao is a major success story for our program that nobody else will even know about. He came very close to not even going to college. Now he's going to med school after three and a half years of Division I Football. Amazing!
  13. I actually think the Texans knew about this months ago, way before the trade demand. The Texans hiring Caserio and Culley without buy-in from Watson, and some of the other strangeness around the coaching search, make a lot more sense if Cal and Easterby knew this thing was going to blow up during the off-season. Once they knew about the scandal, you can't really trade him. It would open you up to massive sanctions by the NFL if you were to not disclose it, and if you did disclosed it there's a good chance that the NFL blocks the trade. If they knew, and it makes too much sense that they did, you just can't trade him away and screw his next team.
  14. It's a really fucked up situation. Rusty Hardin must have gotten PAID. I'm talking 7 figures up front, easily. The thing is, you've gotta pick a direction and go with it, and it appears they've gone with (mostly) consent. There must be too much corroborating evidence out there that they know about to stick with a pure fabrication defense.
  15. Their defense is going to be that he has a fetish and all these girls consented to participating in the fetish. They can't run from his weird sex addiction. All they can do at this point is argue consent and make these girls look like prostitutes. I'm guessing the strategy at this point is to lean into it and hope that Watson can pull a Louis CK and make a comeback when most of the anger blows over and the media moves on to the next pervert/rapist. It's friggin' ugly, but this isn't Rusty's first sex case. They're all friggin' ugly.
  16. Hardin is going to spin this as "don't put yourself in a situation to get extorted or exploited." Sort of like the NBA teaching rookies to make sure to take the used condom with them after shagging a groupie.
  17. A good friend of mine from high school was murdered less than 2 years after we graduated. She had just broken up with her boyfriend, who apparently had been very controlling and abusive. He went to her work, shot her in the face, then shot himself in the head. The saddest part, the murderer was the older brother of another girl who I graduated with and knew well since 6th grade. They were good friends as well, and she introduced the couple.
  18. All I wanted for Christmas was an XBox One X. The wife bought me a watch instead. Microsoft is saying they won't be in stock regularly until June at the very least.
  19. I don't want to spoil anything, but good recovery from the "embarrassing incident" story at Whataburger to breakfast cereal and sugar babies. His sugar baby story was the funniest part of the 'cast. Well, that and "3rd and 17."
  20. That doesn't stop James Harden from making it rain every time he's in Atlanta, Miami, or any other city known for their big-booty stripper scene.
  21. It tells me that Hardin knows that there is corroborating evidence that places Watson with some of these girls, and possibly corroborating evidence of sexual activity. A fabrication defense has a lot more freedom at trial than a consent defense, so you wouldn't want to limit yourself this early unless you know at least some of what the other side has.
