Any way to fast-forward the feed? Pretty boring right now, don't need all this intro crap.

Ash put together one of the worst coaching staffs ever at Rutgers. He even hired Mehringer as his first OC, then fired him and his current boss then decided to re-hire and retain Mehringer at UT for three years despite mountains of evidence he was demonstrably awful at his job.
Those are the two guys making decisions on hiring an almost entirely new defensive staff, and you’re surprised it’s not good?

Is it possible that some players (for whatever reason) are more susceptible to cte from head injuries. Speaking from ignorance here and just spitballing.
There has to be a spectrum of susceptibility. We're discussing football, but the sport with the most repetitive head trauma is boxing. The worst damage inflicted is in the Heavyweight class (simple physics). Everyone mentions Ali and his serious mental/neurologic problems, but many championship heavyweights (Foreman, Frazier, the Klitschkos, Lennox Lewis, etc) seem to be absolutely fine. Lewis and the Klitschkos are even known as being pretty intelligent.
On the other hand, several times a year a boxer will end up brain-dead after taking a bad shot in a match. I enjoyed boxing and Muay Thai when I was much younger and think both sports are great for fitness, but I never had any desire to compete due to the concerns about taking one too many shots.

One major difference between football and rugby is that giving up a a few yards (or meters, for pedants) when making a tackle in a rugby match is no big deal. In football, you can't afford to give up any yardage when making contact due to the downs system. Thus, hard collisions to stop the ball carrier are basically necessary (otherwise it'll be very difficult to prevent the other team getting a first down and retaining possession of the ball). In rugby, that's not the case and so there's no need to have a major impact when making a tackle.
I played both Union and League (years ago) at 6'2' and around 205. I was the guy designated to stop the other team's ball carrier in penalty situations (where I'd basically be standing motionless and the guy would be coming at me with the ball and a running start). I learned very quickly not to meet him head-on. Instead, I would wrap up as he would pass next to me and then ride him down over 3-4 yards (utilizing weight shifts as in judo). Neither one of us would get hurt this way. In football, though, you can't afford to surrender the YAC. So violent collisions (with or without direct head contact) are essentially mandatory.

I knew as soon I started reading this update that the writer was eventually going to heave out the ol’ “small group was actually better” scenario. If they had 200 kids show up, they’d all be hooting and honking about the huge turnout. But nope, smaller is better, folks. Ritz Bit has outfoxed everyone yet again.

He had a terrible season before he went pro. 124 pass rating. 20 interceptions. I was not surprised at all. Also, he just was never very accurate. 55% completion rate in college.
13-23 for 168 yards and 3 INTs in that final game in the Cotton Bowl certainly didn't suggest a pro future. There were rumors at the time that he had some serious interpersonal issues relating to his former GF at Ole Miss that may've led him to declare for the draft early.
