  1. First of all, wood. Second, the cameraman focusing the shot on the sole asian woman from the audience through most of the video (during which blondey is laying on her best asian accent, for those that didn’t watch) bumps this up to another level. Super cringe, surprisingly entertaining. 7/10 chopsticks.
  2. Paywall'ed. Here's a link to the full article:
  3. Please take all this shit to the CR or dedicated NIL thread. signed, everyone except BO&W and linux
  4. You didn't miss, these gifs were (poorly) made today during my half-day lunchbreak. There was definitely a confused Travolta hall of champions gif made years ago. Tried to find it on surly search, but turns out the link went bad:
  5. Assuming nothing official has been confirmed, is speculation that the new training facility will be completed in early-to-mid 2025 such that artificial turf in DKR could be swapped for grass in time for that season?
  6. An argument relying on absolutes (see bolded) is rarely sound. Even if one acknowledges that recruiting and other roster management aspects of being a CFB head coach are dramatically different in the pre- and post-NIL eras and that Sark is more advantaged in the current era, which I do agree with, that does not make his time at USC and UW totally irrelevant bases for evaluating his merits (and prospects) as a head coach. But how about player development, game planning for upcoming opponents, in-game adjustments/management, coaching staff management and, last but not least, proclivity for vices and other things outside the football complex that could undermine everything the coach might be doing well within it. Those are just a few critical aspects that can serve as valid points for drawing valid apples-to-apples comparisons across both eras. It's fair to look at Sark's pre-NIL track record in these areas to make an educated assessment of his weak (and strong) points as a head coach and how that might be expected to translate to future W's and L's. In sum, the situations are somewhat different in that recruiting and roster management have changed dramatically. However, the situations remain the same on many fronts - so the notion that they are "completely" different, or that any comparisons are invalid, is laughable. If what you are actually trying to say is that NIL advantages will lead to so much of a talent advantage over our competition that any coaching weaknesses Sark has carried during both areas are mitigated, that is a fair argument. But that's not the argument you've actually made to this point.
  7. With everyone in this list calculator'd, we would have a projected score of 293.12. That would slot us second in the current (2024) pecking order and third in last year's final. Gruntled. Also, NSIAP: http://i.imgur.com/97GUAlP.png
  8. This might be the most creative way I've seen to humble brag about pulling in an approx $215K salary.
  9. Three things that would have met with disbelief on the recruiting board this time last year: We bagged an the nation's top EDGE prospect in a drawn-out battle with LSU. Someone unironically stating that Mike Roach "might be a better bet than Fong." Kwiatkowski generally considered a value add, not on the hot seat. Two things that have not changed in the slightest: Nahlin is a bitch. FCB
  10. My interpretation: Fong knows, but is letting the kid have his "day" by regaining some excitement of uncertainty in where he'll land. If Fong knew it was LSU, feel like he would have left his LSU prediction and devalued it in his write-up with something to the effect of, "this is one that could go either direction - I already entered an LSU pick so, given the current situation, I'm just going to let it ride knowing there's a coin flip's chance it'll hit." Ergo, him killing his LSU prediction is a good sign for us.
  11. All I know is I’m not going to get shit done at work today. Eagerly anticipating the epic celebration…or even epic-er melt. Keeping with tradition:
  12. I was born with taste bud dysmorphism, asshole. But rest assured, what buds I lack, I make up for with effort.
  13. I'd take her to on a nice bike ride to the outskirts of Charleston, pay the initial premiums on our new life insurance polices using my paltry wages, and then show her what 473 taste buds look like. If you know what I mean.
  14. Dumb 'sip. Jimbo is pulling out all the stops and has orchestrated a celebrity pitmaster for the occasion. Lincoln Riley of course, and his sous-pitmaster Malachi Nelson. That's right, a sitting Heisman-corching corch and a 2023 Polynesian Bowl All-Star.
