2 minutes ago, tokamak said: IMO y'all are way too in the weeds regarding who plays where on the OL. As it stands right now, they aren't 100% sure that Goosby will return, and even if he does, it's likely that there are exactly two tackles on the entire roster that they trust. They need a number at OT, and if you end up with 3 guys that can play, fine. Worry about putting your best 5 on the field later.
Correct. Upgrade the roster. Now is not the time to slot where all the pieces go. That’s shit the fans worry about.

He's been extremely clear that he only wants to be a tackle. It's a huge reason he came to Texas. He's never taken a snap anywhere other than RT since he's been on campus as far as I know.
Stop wishcasting stupid moves. If Baker gets moved to OG he likely enters the portal.

nvm

Some glancing thoughts:
I liked the older kids having separate and distinct farewell. They’re in very different phases of life than the younger kids. Bringing them all together wouldn’t have worked well. That said, it’s 600 miles from Indiana to Philly. The monthly meet up is never going to happen.
D&D final scene was perfect. No notes. Very on brand for the gang to play D&D instead of drinking and chasing girls at a graduation party.
I’m glad they killed Vecna relatively early and spent the finale back half on the kids living their lives. This was always the most interesting part of the show.

When the national guys were publicly begging the Rockets to trade Tari I knew they either really liked him or they were worried about him, maybe both. Simmons did the same shit with Alpie before he blew up.
I’m not sure how they address point guard, but it shouldn’t involve Tari. They can probably get what they need with some protected picks.
Nice smooth ass kicking and an early flight back. Can’t beat that.

I would take Utah’s new head coach, with all of one win under his belt after their bowl game, before McGuire. Heck I’ll take three toes in Boulder before him. Tech employing him is good for the small cadre of teams trying to have good football programs in the Big XII.
He’s extremely personable and likable. All of their money guys loved him… until today.
Tech playing in the Big 12 title game was the very public standard they put out there before the season. Mission accomplished. He’ll get another year.

Jaguars and Texans play at the same time. I’m sure there will be some scoreboard watching, but I’d expect both teams to play their starters until they get some clarity.

Probably my last year of “participating” in the Spec’s drop. The no limit bullshit kills any possibility of getting Weller 12 or something of that ilk in the late afternoon.
Houston still had everything I bought at 10 am Tuesday.
Their BT pick is really good. It’s hard to miss on those. Glad they sold it as handles only. Nice cherry note. It’s usually more earthy, grassy to me.
I’d pass on the Bowman Small “store pick”. Glad it didn’t cost much.
