  1. Nope, to replace PK at the slightest hiccup next year. Or this year. For all i know, Sark might be waiting until Patterson is with the team before pulling the trigger. It would suck to swing and miss and get stuck with a coach you were about to dump, or some other scrub. Kinda sets the tone for a shitastic defensive play that would make last season's play look good.
  2. It was a big middle finger to every P5 program out there. It is a clear message to anyone who wants a recruit aggy wants is going to have to be prepared to spend big money. As comfortable as they were with going that much further overboard than anyone else, seems like this is something they've been doing awhile, but the NIL thing emboldened them and they got carried away. I think aggy believes this is something all Blue Bloods do every year, and expected every top program to go balls deep and ended up exposing themselves to the world, literally.
  3. This needed to happen. Now hopefully we get Patterson onboard.
  4. No, but reports say Patterson is close to joining the defensive staff as an analyst. https://www.si.com/college/texas/.amp/football/horned-frogs-gary-patterson-longhorns-pete-kwiatkowski-steve-sarkisian

  6. I'm not so sure he passed on it. I think they cut another deal, but this time he wanted hard cash he just used to secure this class. Ten more years at 10-12 million a year is better than 14 million a year for 2-3 years...
  7. When half (probably more) take the signing bonus they just got and run at the end of the season and aggy is still 8-4 year after year. They'll turn. Now I'm not sure how many #1 classes in a row they bring in before the masses figure out that next year is never coming with Jimbo, no matter how many 5*s come and go each recruiting cycle.
  8. When you put it like that, Alabama can't even offer that.
  9. They're making rings. Or they will add Jimbo's image to their class rings.
  10. I'm sure the SECs main office and the NCAA batphone has been ringing off the hook. The NCAA probably just picked up the phone with way ahead of you. Investigators were already on their way by noon Wednesday. I can see aggy thought process. We can buy players now? Buy everyone!!! They might have fucked up on this one. We will see. But I bet they fucked up the NIL and there are going to be so many guidelines and stipulations coming down the pipeline that it will be a joke of a program. And I bet there will be several of these recruits who end up in deep shit over tax evasion inna few years, once the IRS tracks all the money down. But I'll go out on a limb and say there were millions that exchanged hands. I wonder how much of that came after the pancake factory got media attention... No one does panic like aggy, when they are trying to counter any innovation from the flagship.
  11. Not without a DC. Recruits and players both have always abandoned ship when any of the H/O/D coordinators leave. They DAMN sure don't flock to it like they did to aggy this year.
  12. Ewers is definitely the better of the two. The kid can uncork it for 70 yards almost effortlessly. No need for a huge windup. Maalik has a beautiful delivery also. But needs more reps. He might even have better touch on the deep ball, if so, it's only slightly better. What I like most about Maalik is him willing to sit and learn. If we don't land Arch, Maalik should have a solid grasp of the offense and be more than capable of taking over the roll without any drop off Senior Season Highlights_.mp4
  13. Hahaha. That's right up there with aggy math on Jimbo's new contract. A Research and Engineering school where math isn't a struggle, it's a complete failure.
  14. Exactly. As long as Ewers is somewhere near what all experts project him to be, there isn't a competition, no matter what the coaches say. It changes the dynamic of a defense and how much the DC will risk/gamble when facing a QB that has a 50% or less chance of hitting the long ball, and one that hits that throw consistently. Then add in the other dynamics like one that will hit for 60 + yards with a laser if receiver is open, but also drop it in over the shoulder into a breadbasket if the receiver only has a step on the CB. Compared to one that it is a coin flip to hit at 45 maybe 50 yards, but the ball is going to be in the air a time because he almost has to throw it as high as it has to go deep. There is no real competition. But it is always better in this case to make it open. We have Ewer and Maalik coming in, it wouldn't be the first time open competition sent the expected starter to the bench and then packing. Ewer and Murphy were both supposed to be in this 2022 class, and Maalik is probably the only one in this class that matches up with Ewers arm talent, so it isn't like no one else has a chance. Plus we have Card at this point.I highly doubt it, but who knows. Maybe it clicks with him and come spring, he comes in confident and firing rockets. I wish that reciever out of 'cuse that's in the portal didn't have academic issues. Taj Harris (?) Is like 6'3" , can stretch the field, and has solid stats. I think he leads the country in receptions when in single coverage. He'd be a great counter to Worthy. There is another one from Vandy that's interesting. He also has good stats. He was Vandy's best reciever (only reciever) so he did respectable work for always having 2 or 3 SEC cover guys all over him.
  15. I like having Maalik RS his first year and as QB2 his freshman year. If we don't land Arch, Maalik can make all the throws and has an arm that is NOT considered second fiddle to anyone's, including Ewers. He just needs polishing. He comes into the program well aware he lacks the development and hungry to learn the things he needs to be a better QB. Sark's distinguished track record with QB development is what brings him and Ewers to Texas. oh and did I mention Maalik hurdles an upright defender in their state championship? What's not to love? I don't know if Sark is the guy, but I hope like hell he is. I can only imagine what recruiting will look like if we start to play football like we know what we are doing.
  16. I wouldn't turn my nose up at Malik. He is a development player that is said can make all the throws also. Some say he has a better arm than Ewers, others say it's on par with, but I've never heard anyone say it's weaker.
  17. It makes it fun when you actually keep your commits and flip others instead of having top targets slip through your fingers while a third of the commitments get flipped. Great work by the staff.
  18. Direction. Yes Vicinity? What parameters would you like to set to determine your answer? But it doesn't matter. We are going to fool everybody and not throw the ball a single time a season.
  19. Hitler's youth got cool little daggers made from the finest German steel. SSaggy are only allowed fake swords.
  20. If Collie Town had been in Germany, that would have been the biggest SSaggy factory... I can see how that would've played out.. URGENT STOP!!! DON'T TOUCH THE JEWS. SSaggy is the real threat to all humanity and sheep. They must be stopped before they contaminate us all. Hitler. I have released SSaggy on humanity. And with that, I have become dumb. I'm going to go put a bullet in my head now.
  21. I'm curious how large was the fascist movement on the aggy campus in 1939.
  22. I'll withhold judgement until after the holidays and see if they are back to banging...
  23. We were the biggest contributors to Alabama's slight dip this year. We took half his coaching staff. But the biggest blow was taking Kei Rob. When their RB went down, they began having problems running the ball. They didn't have their plug n play backup because he was in Texas backing up our guy. Their next RB wasn't as skilled, nor was he ready to take the bulk of the workload. Still helping little brother earn those little gold stars and they have no clue how much we do for them... Lol
  24. Since it's pretty obvious that comprehension isn't something you need to waste any time on, I shall help you with that... Starting to does NOT mean equal to...
