  1. I have questions, and I need old timers help. 1) Why did Emory Ballard suddenly leave aggy? 2) Who was or who hired the OU spy? Switzer acknowledged there was a spy, but it was on Chucks’ staff. Who was Chuck? 3) Any more color on RC’s secretary driving on to the practice field would be greatly appreciated. Pretty fucking funny.
  2. Jeff Howe had some good thoughts on OU in a recent podcast. He basically said they’ve embraced becoming the new Nebraska instead of fighting against it, and they’re pussies for not trying with 5 stars. “They’re a top 5 program all time, a blue blood, they absolutely should be competing against Texas, Bama, and fOSU for the best players.”
  3. There was a path for this Venables shit to work. Hit the Christian culture thing harder than Dabo, and convince recruits Austin was the devil. Hell it recently worked with Fasusi. Instead, they turned to Nagy’s Moneyball bullshit because it was cheaper and didn’t require staff to follow boosters into the bathroom to ask for NIL contributions. Great approach in the Big 12, but they’re going to get killed in the SEC.
  4. I respect the Napier hustle. Took Lagway as a hostage, convinced UF to use his buyout money on NIL, and then sold this bullshit to podcast verse namely Andy Staples and Bud Elliott. Absolute agent masterclass in how to save your client’s job. UF recruiting still sucks, but they’ve talked themselves into anything is possible with Lagway/dark horse national championship bullshit. Lagway is great, but they just don’t have enough dudes.
  5. Just saw that JLC has been married to Chris Guest since 1984. My God, it has the most successful Hollywood marriage in history. Guest’s monologue in Waiting for Guffman is one of the funniest scenes ever filmed.
  6. Yep. Pretty curious. Doesn’t come from a family of athletes, but they all went to UF.
  7. Amazing show. The steakhouse stain on the tie scene is funny as hell.
  8. Listen to the OTF podcast from Saturday. Basically said it’s a matter of when.
  9. I’m good with it. He’s probably an annoying 3 year starter at OU, we’ll see at Texas. Maybe they think he’s the next Trey Moore. End of the day, with 105 scholarships might as well mess with OU when convenient.
  10. Gerry said yesterday Kreul to Texas is basically a done deal. Calculator.
  11. Yes consider the source, but Ian Boyd claims that Nagy reports directly to the new AD. I think Nagy outlasting Venables is a very safe bet.
  12. RE: Georgia currently being at 30 commits. Their mods are saying there are blueshirts in the clsss. Who has an actual scholarship is a closely guarded state secret. Basically, they use NIL to cover the full cost of attending Georgia for the blueshirts.
  13. Liking Tires, but hating Beautiful Dogs is pretty curious. Feels like a you problem.

    I can’t recommend Guadalajara Memorial. No draft beers and they burnt the shit out of my pork chop. They got real cute with it and piled pico and avocado slices on top so I couldn’t see it. I told the bartender about it and she basically told me to fuck off. Happy Hour quail and jalapeño sausage were terrific, but I’ll stick to the Greenway location.
  15. This thread is deader than disco. Here goes on getting the discussion going.
  16. For the uninitiated, what channel and time does Graham Norton come on?
  17. Rewatching S2. So great.
  18. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Kreul is too small. Let him go elsewhere. If Sark really wants a big white kid that can play, circle back on Wafle after Riley lights himself on fire this fall.
  19. I really liked episode 4. I wish HBO let them use the Succession theme song. The mash up didn’t work as well. The Succession like discussion in Paddy’s office was hilarious and a well executed parody.
  20. Just a slow moving train wreck. Venables might be worse than John Blake. At least Blake could recruit well.
