    That's always been the disadvantage of having a DC who wasn't a good secondary coach first.   He doesn't seem to be able to correct this sort of thing.  We just wander along blaming it on lack of pass rush, youth at DB, and eventually DB coach.

    Soooooo... Fire PK?

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Is Nansen next up at DC?

    ... we are left with no other choice but to conclude that the 12 deaths in 99 are the single most egregious event in the history of college football since 1909...

     

    If you're going to take actual practice/play out of the equation, I think you're going to have to include the Marshall U plane crash in 1970, which killed over 70 people. Calling a FIG event "egregious" probably isn't too far off the mark.

    Shit, I knew it was good as soon as Tucker walked out on the field.

    To be fair, that's pretty much everyone's attitude toward a Tucker FG "attempt".

    Someone somewhere's got that little mp3 clip of South saying "It's a good one. They win." in probably the most resigned tone ever heard. I didn't hear it until the next day, of course...

    Dual sport athletes count against the football scholarship, other than that walk-on's aren't limited in any way, but dress and travel limits are still enforced.

    I thought the football squad size bullshit T&L limitations are by conference, not NCAA?

    Still... let him pay his own plane fare and hotel bill, problem solved. Oh, and he'll need a ticket to get into the stadium, right?

    Hey, I really wanted it to work and him to say fuck the establishment but he’s taken a turn for the worst and the recruiting and on field results will show.  Next…

    You've spelt "wurst" incorrectly.

    He's coached one season and increased the win total 400% from the previous year.  They look to be much improved this year.  Where is the failure coming from?  This program was DOA when he was hired.

    Even better than Urban's NFL record!

    Sayyyyy... if Prime doesn't hang around too long, Urbs is prolly gonna be available. Just sayin', you know?

  7. Miz Long had a solution to the Lone Sock problem. We had a big ol' basket full of 'em. 

    if you came up with an LS out of your sock drawer, you could usually find a mate in the basket, but if not, just leave it. The girls had a tendency to rock mismatched socks and call it stylish, even digging in the basket for  inspiring fashionables.

  8. This College of Perversion, is that under Fine Arts, or Liberal Arts... or another Academic Unit altogether? Are there any special requirements for matriculation? Are batteries included?

    So many questions...

    Locklyn sounds like a guy we might want to be looking at as a successor to Choice, when Choice inevitably leaves for his first OC or HC job.

    At grandma's house back in the day, they got two channels if it was pointed in one direction, or they could get a third channel if it was pointed in a different direction. Guess who's job it was to climb up on the roof and reposition the antenna when they wanted to watch that third channel?

     

     

     

    ... and to this day you list "Antenna Rotator" on your CV, right?

  11.  Opportunity is knocking. There is a vast market, untapped for the most part, of aggy believers who will spend perfectly good money for the stupidest shit imaginable, as long as it is maroon, has brass buttons, shoulder straps, an SEC patch, the number 12, and/or an "A", an "M" and an ampersand. Or all of these. It is helpful if it is able to sound "whoop!".

    I'm thinking one of the first entries needs to be a wall clock that never runs out of time.

    Let's go, y'all - what else have we got?

    4th time now, Mrs. ROFL has complained that the TV signal (over the air antenna) must be out due to high winds.

    🤦‍♂️

    To be fair, this is something that used to happen, in the age  of rooftop antennas. Highly directional yagis had to be pointed at the signal source. Wind could blow them around like a weather vane and there was a decent market for rotators so you could point the antenna in different directions and get a good feed from all three stations...

    You left out "Josh Pate says Texas a&m has motive, means, and opportunity to return to Greatness."

    "return"? Does not compute
