    I assume it was discussed in the thread, but imagine a Texas football coach walking out for a playoff game in a hoodie with a big basketball on it and no visible "Texas" or Horns logo anywhere. I'm OK with the occasional stupid alternative uniform if recruits like it, but repping a different sport is just weird. And MJ's relevance in the era of LeBron isn't exactly top of mind for the kids either

    Until I saw it up close I was wondering why they were wearing gear with the Wing Stop logo

    Also, I think it’s time to abandon the mask thing outdoors. American cities are not New Delhi with smog and virtually anyone masking outside in 2025 is either criming, ICE, a lunatic, or combination thereof. 

    That’s my assumption whenever I see one these days.

    It is shocking but if Muschamp can field a defense like Georgia's I would be gruntled.

    PK landing at Oregon sounds plausible. 

    Kirby basically gave this evaluation of Texas after they beat us this year:

    This will no longer be the case with a Muschamp defense. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that Flood is next on the chopping block.

    I don't view it as "commitment" or "ambition."  I think it is more an an experience thing.

    In my line of work--which is the line of work of seemingly 95% of the posters on this board--much of the mentoring that young people get is just absorbed as a consequnece of being in close proximity.  Listening in on a phone call, hearing people talk in the halls or in the next office over, running into a colleague in the breakroom and asking what they're up to, walking into a supervisor's office and asking if there's something you can do on this case--that's how much of the most valuable mentoring gets done.

    I'm not saying that mentorship can't be done in a WFH environment.  I am saying that it's really hard.  And if both the mentor and the mentoree are not real conscientious about it, it's not happening.

    If I need to hire a third-year associate--adn I really need to hire a third-year associate, BTW--I'm 100% going to take an assciate who has been in the office over one who has been exclusively WFH over his/her career, all other things being equal.  It's not because of what I percevie as commitment or work ethic; it's all about the mentorship and training that I think that lawyer has gotten at his/her previous job.

    Literally just had this discussion with a young employee today at an end of year review. Totally agree and tell my kids the same thing. 

  5. He’d be a great change of pace back to pair with a bruiser like Baugh. I think Sark would love an offense where he could give it to Baugh 20-25 carries a game and Wisner 10-15 with some screens worked in. Of course, you’d need an O-Line that could give them some holes to run through, but that kind of tandem would be ideal if you can pull it off.
