  1. I wouldn't have thought of City of God on my own, but I wholeheartedly endorse its inclusion as a top 5 gangster movie. Great call.
  2. yes, on campus today getting cleared.
  3. Please, elaborate what these injuries are, how he got them, and why they are ultimately tied to his frame's inability to hold up in the college game. Surely you have specific information and insight into the injuries than what is publicly available - otherwise you are grasping at data points and trying to cram them into a predetermined narrative you've formed based on some 9.95'er scouting reports. Do we need to pull up high school scouting reports for 5 star busts? For 3 star success stories? Nobody is saying such reports don't have a place, but you are making firm, sweeping conclusions based on conjecture. FWIW, I like both Vasek and Jackson. Don't sleep on Umeozulu as well. It is a deep and talented room, and if Jackson emerges it'll be a pleasant surprise.
  4. FWIW, Cosmi's in season weight would drift into the 280's.
  5. Weak slate of films across the board - bad year.
  6. the duality of Mahomes - plays like a bitch with the soccer flopping, plays with absolute brilliance with that pass.
  7. Much can/will be sorted out in spring/fall practice, but as a current snapshot I can tell you that pregame warm ups had Bolden/Bond/Butler (in that order) practicing punt returns. I won't go into details, but set against a big sample size of athletes, Bond stands alone in certain displays of douchebaggery. Not everyone has the personality/foundation to handle the money, attention, and expectations well, especially when adversity strikes. It would be great if everyone was like Golden/Moore/Whittington.
  8. Moore played 9 games last games in 2023. He'll be a true junior next year.
  9. I, on the other hand, did it the worst way possible. I turned it on early in the second half with a 20-something point lead and promptly watched the offense grind to a halt while OU came back (and not in that playing awesome everything falling kind of way - they weren't particularly impressive either). It was a staggering display of incompetent offense and lackluster defense. But hey, we won.
  10. that is 100% backward
  11. I never thought I'd say this, but Helobious is exactly right.
  12. I mean not disrespect to Burton, but he is consistently terrible at these eligibility questions. Conner is out of eligibility. Bolden (another one he is frequently wrong talking about) is out of eligibility.
  13. The team is flying there tomorrow afternoon.
  14. Not saying the general sentiment is incorrect, but Holle is just not wired that way.
  15. According to Gerry, Gaad is pushing back his announcement until late January or early February, with plans to visit Texas again in late January.
  16. Spence too.
  17. Zelus Hicks is not practicing with the team.
  18. We did the manta-ray-night thing a few years ago and it was the most incredible experience of the whole trip. I've been on more than a dozen whale watches in my life - I very much enjoy a good whale watch - but i'd do the manta ray thing over a whale watch 10 out of 10 times. FWIW
  19. It is hilarious watching OU get stymied on 3rd and 4th and short over and over.
