  1. From the ESPN article that dropped Note that this is no longer about the B12, this is all Fox. Also by slowing down Texas/OU this slows down the potential poaching of the Pac12 which means it gives Fox more time to decide how they want to deal with the potential of the B10 and westward expansion.
  2. So Roach worked really hard to gloss over the “strange” sudden commitments to targets to A&M and how some recruits families all of the sudden soured on the Texas staff… I guess I can’t blame him, but at some point it is so blatant that it would might be worthwhile to imply when random $$ collectives first got involved.
  3. So ASU, AU, Col and Utah and leave UO, OSU, UW, WSU, Stanford and Cal to figure their own shit out? Curious how that would work
  4. That fact that you think being in the B12 puts you inside the building is adorable... You just traded one glass ceiling for another. Enjoy the ride. The best thing you get to look forward to is that if the Pac 12 implodes like we expect you finally get to be in the same conference at Utah.
  5. I am guessing his NFL grade was not very good or his medicals made everyone ask him to stay another year to prove he comes back fully. This is a big help to A&M, but now the questions is how does the diva react to not being the primary target?
  6. Nobody wanted to give me odds about him being brought in for questioning the next 7 days after NSD2...
  7. Backup OL, but still going to be a bunch of media questions
  8. I think they are worried Ty might bail if they got someone in the early portal knowing they were getting rid of BOB. Now they get to hope that they can find a JAG with some starting experience (which is technically better than what they have now) that will have some familiarity with whoever the new OC’s system is. Being unwilling to cut BOB loose early is probably the real issue is. All this does is make the early road game to Bama that much more winnable.
  9. This thing looks to me more about payback than over-zealousness.. Seem almost like something out of the Knapp commission from NYC from the 70s. Now the question is going to be who had the real beef with him and is this something tied to just someone on that squad wanting payback or something much worse as a paid job. The sad part about this is that if hadn't died, this would have just been another case of was this justifiable force in restraining the suspect.
  10. At some point, this dumbass is going to cross a real line and one of the real vindictive members of society is going to start to just torment him with nuisance suits and job complaints until he has to disappear again and change his name
  11. Anyone want to give me the odds that the CS PD miraculously decide to bring him in on Thursday or Friday... you know right after the late NSD on Feb the 1st...
  12. quote: As part of a new 15-year agreement with Alabama that it announced Tuesday, Learfield, in conjunction with the university, is creating a dedicated hub for name, image and likeness (NIL) called The Advantage Center, an epicenter for Crimson Tide athletes’ NIL endeavors that the company believes is a first nationally. The Advantage Center, with a goal of opening this calendar year, will be located inside Bryant Denny Stadium and will double as the agency’s local office. So they are essentially adding an incubation center type facility on to the Learfield local office and hoping to integrate their college licensing with student licensing for NIL opportunities. Interesting idea that seems more of a publicity thing than anything substantial initially
  13. Oh…. So Sark is actually looking for a legit skillset for his WR coach and not just a name for recruiting? Shocking…. It’s almost like Sark has known what he wanted from the beginning and the 9.95ers keep adding bullshit names they are tight or familiar with while Sark keeps trying to find exactly what he wanted. Since we just had Jr day, the search can take a bit more time. It is interesting how concepts tired to NIL is starting to influence recruiting. Now the RB/WR coach can’t just be a recruiter at schools with an NIL budget, but now have to develop kids foremost so recruits can see a path forward to make NIL $$ by excelling either here or elsewhere as a transfer. Now you have to have the foundational level skills after being recruited to ever score big NIL at the school you are at or a new landing spot.
  14. Do you not recognize where you are? Regret and reproach is all we really do well exporting here…
  15. So I am also curious how by not following the guild guidelines for set use of firearms work with all of this. The standard expectation is than any gun on the set to be visually cleared by the armorer, with the actor present and then give directly to the actor. In this case it sounds like it was just sitting on the table and someone not the armorer handed him the gun and nobody verified anything. By not following established guidelines does that make him negligent in the eyes of the law? I get it from the civil suit side, but I don’t know how all of this is intertwined for criminal law. He shot someone on accident and they died. That seems to be no longer really up for debate. So what/where is his negligence? Trusting someone else? Not checking the gun himself? Not verifying that someone was not in his firing range? Hiring an unqualified armorer? Not enforcing the guild rules on set? This will be real interesting because I don’t know how negligence is determined in New Mexico law and I have no idea if they need to separate the acts of negligence or just show they all add up to being negligent.
