  1. Gifted physically and with some of the best mentors one could ever ask for. All wasted.
  2. The sec blows right now and we get most of the bottom half of it. We could add nothing more and our floor would still be Atlanta
  3. Last year our winter portal haul included Mukuba, Golden, Bond, and Trey Moore. Elite adds at every position of need. This year we whiffed or balked at price tags for major WR, TE, and CB. Even ignoring MM, anyone who posted now that the portal preparedness was better than ever would get laughed off the board.
  4. Didn’t Burton say this was the most prepared for the portal the program has ever been? We’re still going to win the sec next year, but what an insane comment
  5. His health was mismanaged the entire season. I don’t buy that he’s been anywhere near healthy since September
  6. I go back and forth, but I think Jones was the biggest loss on the roster from last year over Worthy.
  7. Get in price just dropped $150 in the last few hours
  8. We had a glaring need for a Friday starter and were outbid on a number of targets. Not to say that we didn’t upgrade the staff, but there are question marks. To be title-caliber it’s likely going to need to be homegrown and 3 years without recruiting pitchers is a big hole to fill.
  9. Expecting a 2 seed this year, lately that means top 9/10 in sec play. Maybe that expands this year with us and OU, but 10/32 is already a huge chunk Staff overall is better, but still will be outgunned on the mound nearly every Friday in conference and most Saturdays. Gage is also irreplaceable. Don’t know enough about how similar/different the offensive approach will be, but at worst we’ll have the same streaky power as last year and win some big games. Honestly think the pitching will take 3 seasons to correct for Pierce’s malpractice
  10. Almost certain KS didn’t play any first last year. Poked through a bunch of box scores and it was almost always Borba and a bit of JOD when JT was in the outfield. Don’t know where he’ll play, but I think Stewart hits 20 homers this year
  11. Would’ve been so easy to saunter on and off subs and induce a delay there
  12. I mentioned the OT TD and the fake punt. Don’t recall one on the RB pass, but wouldn’t be surprised. There was also one on the 2 point conversion that would’ve offset with the d holding.
  13. Fans of middling teams will always have their narratives. I thought the refs were poor, but really didn’t impact the game significantly either way Pretty much every big play of theirs sans the RB pass could’ve been nullified with flags. The fake punt, the TD in OT, the interception, the long RB wheel. They ran 100ish plays and were pressured 31 times, but didn’t hold once.
  14. It would help if we had a receiver who could track a deep ball. Not that Quinn helps by putting it up in the lights every time
  15. One of the worst broadcasts I can remember, especially for espn proper. Production and commentary both
  16. I’ve seen OU people say it’s bc he punched Murray
  17. They don’t make elastic that strong
  18. Bags don’t rule the world and there’s no Saban discount. They don’t have the infrastructure to support the highest team talent in the country anymore. Makes sense that they won’t be able to keep highly talented backups on the payroll for years anymore.
  19. I’d rather them blow their budget on a WR than a Walter Nolen type
  20. They haven’t had a success story HS-developed QB since Bradford. Might as well just reinstall the entire offense around a transfer QB annually
  21. They’re definitely getting him. But they have no skill guys, the OL will continue to deteriorate, and their handful of defensive difference makers are all being tampered with by teams with deeper pockets
  22. Frustrating year. Oh well
  23. Has to get ugly before CDC can fix it
  24. December home game at DKR is the stuff of dreams. Geographic advantage the next 3 rounds also
