  1. I would seriously hope that the 2nd ranked Texas fucking Longhorns have a conditioning advantage over UTSA - who is likely one of the worst teams in the country. If not then someone needs to be fired.
    We probably don't have a heat tolerance advantage. 
    I meant the heat, not actual S&C, but yeah.
  2. I can see arch and our second string playing a full half. And yet still put up 35 points. 
    I hope so, but Sark may let Quinn pad stats for a run at the Heisman. It would be cool to get a third Heisman, but that award seemed much cooler 20 years ago.
  3. Yeah def gonna be hotter this weekend than 2 weeks ago. 95 at kickoff vs 91 in early sept
    And no conditioning advantage playing a team from SA. Not that we're likely to need an edge, but the heat won't be a shock to any of the players.
  4. In my experience, because they’re old, watch almost exclusively linear tv, and like to be able to tune to channels with numbers they know rather than scroll a guide. 
    TSRH, my parents are resistant to streaming so I got them hooked up with Hulu+ that simulates the old cable experience with live channels and such. Even so it took them a long time to realize part of it is live cable, part on demand tv and movies, but the entire thing is streamed through their cable company wifi.
  5. For those in the know: With the directv ESPN situation, what are my options to see the game? I have the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ bundle but not sure if that will allow me to watch it. Thanks in advance!
    At this point I think everyone should just get fed up with all the bullshit and go the peg leg/parrot on shoulder route. I legitimately had LHN for only about 5 1/2 years of its more than a decade long run, and it wasn't because I wasn't willing to pay for it. Same for this DirecTV vs the Mouse nonsense, consumers are the only losers of that slap fight.

  6. The closest college I applied to (go Hoosiers) was a 34 hour drive from my house. It felt to me like college is a time to define yourself as your own person, not a time to have parents dropping by unannounced or having your mom do your laundry. Everyone's choices vary.
    My criteria was a minimum 3 hour drive. Close enough to go home when I wanted to, just far enough away the fam wouldn't show up unannounced on a whim.

  7. Hell yeah! Welcome Zelus!

    This is a recruitment where in the past we might be a hat on the table, but ultimately lose to Georgia, Bama, LSU or even aggy. The SEC move combined with NIL, transfer portal (which so far has helped far more than hurt) and a university President who understands the football programs importance to the entire school...has truly woken the sleeping giant, and he's hungry after a long sleep.

  8. Remember a couple years ago when a lot of this board was actually scared of UTSA?  This game should be a fucking scrimmage at best.
    What does old Jeffrey have for athletes this year? I always assume he does a decent job recruiting.
  9. I’ve been thinking he seems like a weird fit for Elko/Klein’s first QB recruit. He’s not unathletic, but he doesn’t exactly bring the rushing threat that the offense needs to be maximized and he’s not that big. He’s talented, and if you can get him to College Station I guess you have to do it.
    It’s almost like Elko and Klein don’t really have any kind of real plan or vision on how to put together that roster. 
    Plan or vision? Don't need no stinkin plan or badges vato!

    At first I thought Colin Klein was an odd fit for aggy, but that's simply because of Wiggy...but he won't last long behind his 5 matadors.
  10. Thanks. 
    The base is ausubo wood my dad salvaged 70 years ago from the renovation of a 350 year old Spanish Colonial building within the grounds of El Morro fortress in San Juan, Puerto Rico. 
    He had several lamp bases made out of one beam, and I inherited this one and added the glass shade after VY’s 4th & 5. 
    The old wood is very dense & heavy, looks kinda like mahogany in appearance.

    This is gonna seem weird since I'm not an 80 yo woman, but I've always had a thing for Tiffany style lamps. My grandma had a huge one with a heavy bronze "tree trunk" base and I always thought the multicolor glass panels were awesome
