  1. I wonder who on the DL will emerge as a real leader, someone who can be great in a big game.
  2. "As I asked in my Ifs List, however, what if Manning is merely very good? What if he flashes epic upside -- like he did against UTSA, completing passes of 75, 51 and 36 yards and ripping off a 67-yard touchdown run in less than 30 snaps -- but also gets fooled at times, like he did against Louisiana-Monroe (and in cameos against Georgia and Florida)? What if he needs an unproven receiving corps to bail him out and an unproven offensive line to protect him more?" Fair write up. Arch will struggle but if he can scramble for first / touch downs look out. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/45807129/2025-sec-college-football-projections-preview
  3. Something about this reminds me of being in the dome for Ken Caminiti's debut. He was diving around, throwing rockets from 3rd and crushing doubles and home runs. He just did big things. Arch came in last year and threw it long, looking downfield every time (to a fault) but it was really fun to watch.
  4. Cooper splitting time at linebacker should not be overlooked. He may make one hell of a jump. He's a tough motherfucker and I love having tough motherfuckers tote the ball.
  5. This is why you don't understand. Anyone who grew up an Oilers fan, especially in the luv ya blue days, knows the Cowboys are/were a bunch of gaywads with their fancy formations and pre-snap / up down jerk-off Tom Landry discipline bullshit. Didn't he play the coach in "One on One" with Robbie Benson? Carl Mauck 4ever.
  6. His tape is nothing like ankle-breaking Bijan. He's a power runner, tough as hell, with speed.
  7. We'll get our guys. It may not be top 5 but close. There's no reason to make big promises to high school players right now when we don't know who will (or won't) need a pay bump on the roster this season, or what holes might emerge in the lineup. As the season plays out we'll get a grip on the payroll and start making offers that agents/recruits know are real.
  8. There's no way we're going to let the poors stomp all over us this cycle, fearing of some rule-set nobody else cares about. Take a breath and prepare for a wild finish.
  9. A little early for that bit of speculation, friendo. How many Bama, Georgia, OSU top three classes in a row have there been over the years? We can and should do the same. And welcome to our gaggle of miscreants.
  10. Commence operation re-insert pet heads.
  11. Ojo was a turnstile at a high profile event not long ago. That's concerning. Add that he's an "athlete who needs to get good at football," and you have to wonder, so people are wondering. Fair game.
  12. If a 17 year old recruit is unsure of his college destination and gets offered a bag in hand versus a check later, he's probably gonna take the bag and buy some shit. I imagine we have the mechanism to come back later and pay that off with a better offer. But it's gonna cost some guys.
  13. This was in the 90's. Her body was all-time. And Jessica Biel most amazing trait was her skin (not to Buffalo Bill this shit), really mind-blowing, like a porcelain doll.
  14. Heather Graham was around a lot in in Swingers era LA. Her ass is incredible.
  15. Most of us realized last year that summer-whiffing was nothing to worry about, because the same thing happened the year before, when we had a great class. Same goes for this year, but with even less to worry about, since we went number fucking one. But there also seemed to be an extra amount of "hi's" and winks and hints this year, when hardly any of them have panned out. So they deserve a little shit for stirring it up (for clicks and subs) when history suggests dialing it back.
  16. I'm talking about firm offers / installments while recruiting, before enrollment. Or is it illegal to make payments before enrollment? I forget.
  17. Following the money, how do we contrast with our main competitors? I remember reading that we hold off on firm figures / installments when others don't, but maybe I was dreaming. It could explain our streak of weak summers and strong closings.
