  1. WTF is he doing with a DL??
  2. Yes, and not just the level of competition, but with more reward comes more risk. Arch won't have time to sit back and wait for WR's to get downfield against OSU and UG. And I sure as fuck don't want to watch OSU take a fumble back for a TD again. In a defensive battle it's usually turnovers and giving a team first down or two on a penalty that wins or loses it. I'd like to see a couple of long balls to keep them honest, but I don't think the long game is going to win those games. The running game, short/intermediate passing and running the clock will likely be the best strategy. Move the damn chains and tire out their defense. Bombs away against SJSU and UTEP to pad the stats.
  3. Holy shit, it's hard to believe even agroid would be stupid enough to allow that in a contract.
  4. Maybe too low, but more than anything just flat out hilarious is USC unranked. Comparing that to their recruiting does LR just flat out suck at development? That's flat out embarrassing. Maybe blowu should be glad he left. That's some serious underachievement. Hopefully Sark can nail some more of those CA boys. At least they were good enough to beat agroid in the toilet bowl.
  5. I think it's a great strategy, as long as it's every team not named the Texas Longhorns doing it.
  6. That report makes the most sense out of the ones posted here. The offense sucks at first but got batter as the practice went on sounds realistic. I always said watching Clark's HS film he looks like he has a bit of Bijan in him. I think he can be a big contributor catching the ball in the open field.
  7. -I was told by one source that Caldwell turned in the best performance of the day. -The defense dominated. -Manning had a number of long passes to Wingo and Livingstone. -All the RB’s had multiple long runs. So all of these things are true??? Same shit every year. Do people actually pay for these reports that correlate about as well as fire and ice??
  8. Mateer didn't play in the bowl game, he had already committed to blowu. 35 for the backup QB against Syracuse could mean a couple of things.
  9. No Way Jose! BlowU has by far the best DT tandem in the country and it's not even close. I know for sure about that because I read it on gooner goop.
  10. What Houston does have is nice upscale areas not too far from downtown that other cities with a nice downtown area don't have. At least not as many. You have The Heights, Eado, Upper Kirby, West University, Midtown, Memorial, River Oaks. Yes, some of them overlap. That's why there's not going to be a migration to downtown even if more nice restaurants, retailers, bars are opened.
  11. Interesting this poll has TX above KY. And Pitt seems a little high after we took their best player. Are they that deep? And why no practice reports? Season is only a week away. There's FB practice reports all over the place and they have over 3 weeks.
  12. So what happens to this if they lose again this year?? How fast can they hire a million more counselors?? Does the line get blown up and shut down?? Get Help - 988 Lifeline
  13. I don't want them to suck too bad. They coulda go after a real coach. Certainly they would target Day, Kiffin, Freeman, DeBoer and probably Sark. I know, no one wants to live in Norman, but if they come up with enough $ you just never know.
  14. Hamilton McMartin should starts.
  15. I'm not 2 worried at Lockett/Ffrench. McCutcheon received the same really good WR coaching as Livingstone that most HS players don't get. Also, in a similar scheme to Sark's. He should be expected to be ahead of others. He also seems like a smart guy. The same could be said about Mosley's background. He's from Stanford and his parents went to ND. Smart and able to learn quickly were certainly expected. Lockett/Ffrench are certainly not lacking athletic talent. When they catch up knowledge wise they will be fine. But that also includes having the patience to wait their turn and not hitting the road if they don't start their Freshman year.
  16. Shit, don't even say that. We lost 2 RB's last year before the season started. Don't even mention certain names and injury in the same sentence.
  17. If you believe what Howe said Clark is already ahead of Gibson. I also read he has bigger, stronger legs. Add in he has better lateral movement than Baxter he may be 95% of Baxter can do. He's made a great recovery too.
  18. It tells you your short yardage game sucks, which is a liability. But it didn't take a genius to know that given most of the girls on the rowing team could bench more than your LG, your QB is made of glass and RB1 weighs 175 lbs.
  19. That's the thing, "that game". He only averaged 1.4 ypc against the only ranked team he played against on 20 carries, and that was skewed by a 52 yard run.
  20. I like alligators too. I think they make great boots and luggage.
  21. My thoughts too. Just ask Phillip Geiger. If you're down a TD with 59 seconds left and have to have it, go for it. But it's dumb penalties and mistakes that kept the Vandy and ASU games closer than they shoulda been.
  22. If he runs as much as he did last year I doubt he survives the season against SEC defenses.
  23. Here's my favorite donut shop. Owned by aggies.
  24. People keep forgetting that Mateer went 9 for 19 in a game last year against the vaunted Texas Tech defense. We're talking about a defense so strong they held Baylor to 59 points. Anyone who knows anything about football knows Mateer should just be given the Heisman before the season starts.
