  1. Lol, appreciate the screenshots.  I'm not sure what is going on with LJ.  Honestly, I think both of our OLs are beyond shit, but it concerns me that our "ace recruiting staff" can't land a RB in their back yard in consecutive years.  WTF.  And if that's not going to work, we should find an OOS talent like we try to do for every other position.  The RB room is shaky.

    Honestly, I just think Jimbo is indifferent to in-state v. OOS recruiting.  Looks like a poor play at the moment.  Still can't figure out why Bowman was never offered, either.

    Lol glad you liked that.  It's a little hard to show self-deprecation in posts.  Still don't know wtf is going on at LB, but I hear little about Cooks recruitment.  Either our mods are hearing nothing about it or we aren't that excited about him. 

  3. I'd like to respond too all these, but with respect to us squeaking by and/or losing to teams mentioned in the past, sure. I mean we shit the bed and almost lost to osu. If you want to talk about kansas and maryland, I'm open to it. The fact of the matter is, college football is a crap shoot. We play bad, we play good (far less than I'd like). You play bad, you play good. I believe it's harder to win 10 games in the secw than the big 12. I'm sure you disagree. God bless college football.

    I haz confuse.  So you're admitting that both your OOC as well as your in conference schedule is easy as shit?  That's unpossible.  Those teams are in the juggernaut SECSECSEC, no?

    It's easier this year than it has been, but not easier than shit.  There is a pretty big divide in many conferences, and I wouldn't project the SEC to be an exception.  Specifically, Bama and LSU should be incredibly difficult.  Auburn should be difficult.  Others in conference should be pretty easy wins, depending on Leach and Kiffin's abilities to motivate their groups.  So what's that mean?  It's really difficult to win against the best, and not that hard to beat the worst, unless you're referring to Arkansas, in which case it's always too difficult.

    In the big 12, I'd put Oklahoma in that top category, probably you guys in the Auburn category, osu/baylor/tech/isu in the next rung, and everyone else after that (admittedly having no clue how the bottom half of the big 12 will look this year).

    We had an AD who allowed a coach to basically quit on the job with no repercussion and Texas followed that by hiring the worst coach in our entire history, a coach that went on to get fired from USF after being the worst coach in their history. 

    Lol I know the feeling.  At least yours didn't sign an extension after "coaching" a Heisman winner.  We were blessed with Kevin Sumlin for 4 years too long, at least.  I really thought Charlie would do well for you when you signed him.  Proved me wrong, for sure.

    Damnit! This is one of those times that I REALLY wish this site had that feature like on reddit where you can mark posts for a  reminder on a specific day in the future.

    Screenshot it.  Look, use 247, the composite, or whatever you'd like-- we have more talent on the roster than those schools right now.  It's not really a secret that Arkie has no talent, and that Miss State and Ole Miss are ahead of them.  I also thought it was pretty clear that we've been recruiting better than them all since 2016.  Is anyone disputing that?  Feel free to look it up: https://247sports.com/Season/2020-Football/CompositeTeamRankings/.  So I guess my point stands, we SHOULD embarrass all three this year.  Now, as yall have pointed out, that recruiting hasn't translated to a whole lot, yet.

    Mississippi State is the more physical football team. That's why they continue to beat aggy h2h. 

    Everyone in the SEC goes on about Dan Mullen and what a great football coach he is and he is a good coach. The thing is, anyone who has been around the BigXII for any length of time ought to recognize the recipe - it's a direct lift from the Purple Wizard. Mullen takes the talented guys that are off-the-field risks, attitude issues, grade risks, etc .. and combines them with 3* guys who fit a physical style and physical profile. Sometimes it works and he throws out a good season, often it falls apart. At MSU the expectations are limited so only going above .500 in conference once in an entire decade was ok for their fan base. I expect at UF that he won't be able to have those "off" years. 

    A mobile QB that can get to the edge on an RPO has been aggy's kryptonite and that's why they have mostly been non-competitive against those Mullens teams. How many times has Purple Wizard simply run QB power with a big "QB" or pushed the edge on RPO's with a fast QB and kept his offense to 4-5 plays for an entire game? Ditto Mullens. 

    I actually think MSU think going away from that could help aggy, if Leach and Moo State struggle with quick 3-and-outs, Jimbo will slow that fucking game down to a crawl and not take a snap with more than 2 seconds left on the clock and see if he can get out with a W. If Elko can do enough to disrupt the quick hitters AND hold the edge vs Kylin Hill, then they have a good shot. If Hill can get the edge, then the ags will have to help with contain, that will lead to open slants and Shavers won't have to know how to run a route. it's just catch and go... and Leach will pour it on like no one else. 

    It's going to be interesting to see how that matchup evolves and changes as Mullen guys go out and Leach guys go in. Each of the next 3 seasons the game will look completely different, imho. 

     

    This is a good take.

    So, they are terrible, you should win convincingly?

    EDIT: Arkansas has been terrible; the Miss schools have been up and down.  I suspect they'll all be better than last year.

    We should, yes.  Will we?  I have my doubts.

    Our offense still struggles.  Why?  Mond is lousy, especially on the road.  The OL plays like a bunch of scared, converted TEs.  Spiller has a little more experience, so hopefully the running game isn't a liability.  The WRs should be better, but other than Ausbon and Wydermyer (TE), there isn't much experience.  We have recruited more speed in Ainais Smith, Demas and Achane, so I'm optimistic about getting more diversified play calling.  We'll see.

    I'm really not worried about the defense, at all.

    While I may agree that Ole Miss/MSU/Arkansas might be on the upswing with better coaching- do the current rosters of those teams give you any confidence? I ask that sincerely since I don't follow them. 

    Ole Miss and MSU have better talent than Arkie, but we've passed them up.  I'm very confident about those this year.  Frankly, we should embarrass all three, just considering the talent level, a veteran (although still very underwhelming) QB, Jimbo getting "his guys", and now having coaching shakeups at all of those places.  Will it happen?  Who knows.

    I would be interested on your riposte to my comments above, sir. 

    This one:

    "Maybe. But who here is going to be shocked if they drop a game to one of those teams? They’ve barely beaten Arkansas the last 3 years. And that’s not some fluke of final score, I watched every one of those games. I remember them getting smoked by Shea fucking Patterson true freshman debut as well, ages ago. Shea “I can’t throw in the field of play” Patterson. aTm plays down to their competition pretty consistently."?

    Well:

    Arkansas - Who the hell knows why we play Arkansas like shit.  On the plus side, we beat them every time.  On the other hand, other than a couple of times in the last number of years, it's been way too close.  We way out-talent them.  Maybe it's Jerryworld.  I'm always at a loss with that game.

    Ole Miss - We've beat them the past three years.  Again, games were closer than I'd like.  And based on what I've seen from Jimbo, we probably won't beat up on them until a bunch of talent is on the roster and developed.  Clock management for the past few.  I don't see them going anywhere, though, with Lane Kiffen.

    Miss State - We beat them last year, but got piss-pounded the 3 before that.  We make their no-name QB's heisman contenders.  Some of that was Sumlin and Chavis' trash defense, especially against the run.  I'll be curious to see what the pirate can do-- love that guy.

    I'm not sure if it was legitimately playing down until last year.  Before that (but after Johnny), we just fielded lousy teams.  Did a little with a lot, generally.

    Ah, this is the site that forced Perroni to ask @DrPepper for forgiveness? 

    Honestly, your fanbase has needed an unmoderated site (well, for football. Politics should maybe stay moderated) in the worst way.

    I'm not sure who has demanded or required forgiveness, but DP is over there, along with some other outcasts and misfits.  It's definitely unmoderated.

    Wins maybe, but easy? Please. They’ll barely win 2-3 of those games against Miss schools and Arky and maybe Scar. 

    I realize this is a texas site, but really?  You can't actually believe this, right?

    It's like when we said Ehlinger was dog crap last year.  Way out of touch with reality.

  13. We whiffed on Jackson. I never heard much on Jordan Thomas, I assumed we were just keeping him warm. We are working on Turner, but he'll be tough to get. Not sure on Burris, although i think we could land him if we pushed-- his injury worries me a little, which I suspect is why ou backed off. 

    Monkell likes us. A bird in the hand...
