    I mean....Hamas was/is an utterly shitty government, corrupt as hell, stealing resources meant for the people, all that shit.....but I'm pretty sure they weren't blowing up thousands of Gazans every month.  Unless I missed something.

    And yes, people should have been calling Hamas on the carpet for a long fucking time, based on their corrupt governance alone.

    War is tough. People die. Such is the nature of it.

    Standing up against the destruction of a people is a just cause and is on the right side of history so I'm not sure why it's baffling that young women would be for that. 

    So why didn’t they stand up for it when Hamas was doing it to their own people?

    image.png.63f338a8fd7ea53c5367742d313872ae.png

    Barnhart started 38 games at Michigan over 4 years

    Henderson was a grad stranfser who started 10 games last year

    Keegan started 38 games straight at LG

    Nugent started 24 games at Stanford and then 15 games last year at Michigan

    Zinter started 42 games, i think he started like 37 in a row

    Barnhart started 12 games and 5 last year

    you have nothing to worry about on the OL.

    they bring back a single guy from last year who started a game - Hinton started 5 last year (4 in a row then got replaced)

     

    their OL is absolutely going to be weak next year.

     

     

     

    Orgi isn't that great of a passer....we gotta work him like we did Milroe and we should feast.

    I love how conservative men who want to ban the pill and lock up women who get abortions say shit like this.

    Except I'm not conservative....I in fact support abortion, the pill, and other contraceptives. That doesn't change the fact about what I wrote because that is the truth.

    you are worried about a Michigan team that is 128th in the country in returning production, and are 132/134 in returning offensive production who lost their QB, RB, OL, their top 2 WR, and a bunch of their coaches?

    Michigan won games by grinding teams to dust with the conditioning, OL and Blake Corum. those guys are all gone, along with their head coach, S&C coach and DC.

    And 2DL coaches

    If anyone gives a shit, Jabba:


    I communicated with a source on Thursday about the recruitment of TCU defensive tackle transfer Damonic Williams and here's what I learned.

    * The central figure in the recruitment is the agent/representative for Williams, who is doing what most agents/representatives do in trying to secure the most lucrative deal possible for their clients. There are questions about where exactly that is going to take the recruitment.

    * The sense that I have is that Texas believes that it has the best NIL situation of any of the finalists in the Williams recruitment, but it's unclear whether the Texas offer is being used as leverage to try and get the NIL packages at other schools (specifically OU) increased and, if so, where that leaves the Longhorns.

    * For the first time, the source I communicated with on Thursday mentioned that the Longhorns were in the pole position (the player is very keen on the Longhorns) in the recruitment at one point in the middle of this week, but there's a sense that things may have turned when it was communicated to the agent that the Longhorns would not bend in putting together an NIL offer that the agent believes should exist for Williams, especially when it is already believed that none of the competing schools are matching what is already on the table in terms of lucrative NIL opportunities. .

    I'm told that the agent believes a seven-figure market exists and is determined to find it/tap into it.

    * The word going around on Thursday afternoon is that OU is probably the current leader, but there's a real sense of confusion about how all of this is playing out, partly because it is believed that OU has come under the Longhorns in terms of NIL opportunities (OU's is believed to be in the half-million range), unless that offer was enhanced on Thursday when meetings apparently took place between the agent and the Sooners.
     

    nobody gives a shit what that fat fuck has to say. He's a net negative to this program and if you are subbed then you are a dumb mother fucker too, even more fucking dumb than I am because I'd never sub to that fat piece of shit.

    Norton is proven.. Savea is promising coming off last season too

    Neither of those guys are of the level of player that Damonic is though. 


    So we have 1 over the nose guy in Norton that can eat up blocks, Savea who is a good anchor guy, the hope that Collins shows out, and Broughton as of now who was improved last season but still leaves a lot to be desired from the position.

    IT:

    *****Edit 11:16 a.m.

    I now have Oklahoma as the favorite. There's a caveat, though. OU has been steadfast they'll match the best offer and there's some skepticism over whether or not they can do that.

    I've contemplated an OU RPM because it's basically a no-lose situation with the best outcome being their fans get their hopes up only for me to be wrong and he picks UT.

    It's best to probably let things continue to play out. OU, UT, LSU, Missouri. LSU and Missouri might actually be out of it at this point.

    I may be hope-casting but I can't see Sark letting us go into the season without some kind of proven interior linemen such as Damonic.

    TCU defensive tackle Damonic Williams is expected to make a decision today. No specific time has been given for an announcement, but we're hearing the decision could come as soon as noon. The ball is in Williams' court.

    He is expected to decide between Texas, Oklahoma, LSU and Missouri, after visiting each of the schools in the last 12 days. Williams just completed his official visit to LSU yesterday.

    Williams is a top priority for Horns' DL coach Kenny Baker.

    It's hard to handicap this decision, although Gerry Hamilton did so in this morning's article and put Texas slightly ahead.

    There have been times where Texas, Oklahoma and LSU were likely all ahead in the race for his signature. Who will come out on top at the very end is all that matters.

    **

    Cornerback Jay'vion Cole of San Jose State is set to visit Texas later today. The Oakland native made three INTs a year ago after transferring in from Cal Poly.

    On Tuesday, Cole told CJ Vogel that he was also considering Auburn and perhaps Michigan State.

    **

    Gerry Hamilton is hearing that Texas is out of the running for Michigan State DL Simeon Barrow. Barrow is expected to choose either Miami or LSU.

    **

    My question now is: how many more players will Texas possibly go after in the portal?

    The Horns are at 81 scholarships. Steve Sarkisian has at least four more to give.

    If the Horns were able to add both Williams and Cole, that takes the number to 83.

    Adding a punter is a possibility to make the total 84. So would Texas look at another DT, another DB, or perhaps another position where they want more experience?
