    That's why I always laugh at those BYU choads on this board who dream about BYU being a power in football or basketball. Most 18-22 year old dudes like having sex. Sure they could go to BYU and hope they dont get exposed, or they could go anywhere else where nobody gives a fuck. 


    He’s being accused of sexual assault. Unless he went to Baylor or Penn St, he was likely going to be suspended.

    I thought about Michigan State. Given that Texas never schedules them in anything, I just assumed they were persona non grata irrespective of hundreds of molestations by the doctor and the coverup. 

    The preseason magazines do not have a favorable outlook for Maryland this season. One of them has them finishing below Purdue on the season. While I follow CFB as a hobby trending toward religion, I didn't really pay much attention to Maryland last year or their roster ins and outs this offseason, so that was surprising. If Locksley trending towards a tumbledown, we should hurry up and fit them in irrespective of other P4s being scheduled. 

    I kid ... mostly. Seems like last time Texas had other P4s on at the same time as Maryland and it didn't go so well. 


    Maryland is likely going to start a true freshman at QB. 

  3. Just walking out of Plano Sr graduation at Ford Center. The last person out of 1200 with the last name of Z decides to do the horns down to end the ceremony. It’s truly pathetic the lengths these red ass people will go to show their Aggyness.

    Darius Terrell's connections to this football program are so tenuous that the premise of him having any sort of scoop is simply laughable. Is there a waterboy still working inside the AD from Terrell's time on campus 15 years ago? Who else? GTFO. 


    It’s more likely he would be connected through Desoto than anyone on the Texas staff. I do not recall anyone saying anything negative about the backup qb situation though in the podcast community and usually they would be openly critical of a roster weakness.

    He also said if Jimmy Clausen did not pan out he would quit his job. Watching him rant about GM’s not knowing what they are doing was hilarious.

    All QE has to do is show his “worth” during the pre-season. I really didn’t want him to go to a club expecting him to start day one. Feet, pocket climbing, and long ball improvements need to be made - IMO.

    Hook’em!!!


    Other than those minor things to work on he is NFL ready.

    Indiana QB??? do they still participate in Football?


    I did not think it was possible for this board to get any more retarded. But here we are.

  8. Quinn put some God awful tape on the board including getting himself self sacked a few dozen times in his career. Combine that with the injury history and the inability to throw the ball downfield accurately and it’s pretty easy to see why teams passed. There isn’t a market for an effective short to intermediate passer who has the pocket presence of a tomato.

    Albert Breer is an access merchant and I am dubious of anything a paid shill says. Same with the Schefters of the world.

    That said I am someone that thinks these interviews are ridiculous. We have seen in the past some of the insane questions they ask prospects. I have zero issue with any player that would allegedly tell a team they do not fit with them. If a team doesn’t want to take him they have that right as well. Sanders can play at the NFL level and he’ll find a fit somewhere. I am not a fan of his, but I don’t hate him either. He’s brash like his father and that rubs GM/control freaks the wrong way. We’ll see what team drafts him or failing that which team invites him as a free agent. 


    Abdul Carter is also an elite prospect and football player.

    A whole lot of y’all and suddenly putting copious amounts of faith into NFL front office thinking and decision making. 
     

    I think there are a few unassailable facts. One, Shadeur Sanders was a very good and arguably great college QB. Two, from a talent perspective, he is a top 3 QB in this draft. Three, he has flaws preventing him from being some surefire top 3/5/15 pick. Four, he almost assuredly is a diva, and Deion brings additional bullshit into the fold. Five, NFL draft history shows that at some point, talent outweighs your off field/personal stuff and a guy with baggage is picked after a justified slide because of it. 
     

    What’s fucked up to me about this situation is that the “point” in fact five above, no matter what the draft circumstances, would’ve come well before Dillon fucking Gabriel got drafted by the neediest QB team in the entire draft outside of Pittsburgh after Cam Ward was taken one.  There is no way Sanders is a Day 3 pick in this draft (and probably 80 percent of others) from a talent perspective even with the “baggage slide” built in.

     

    That tells me something else is going on here.  Yes, it’s probably Deion being a helicopter moron who made some outrageous demands that blew up in his face, but that’s not covering every cause here…

     


    I have a friend in the Bears organization that told me the story going around about Sanders is during an interview with a team, he asked them why he should play for their organization. Effectively demanding the team sell him on their franchise. It was do off putting that most teams simply removed him off their draft board entirely. 

    The perception on Sanders is that he is so entitled that no one believes he will do the work and be patient enough to be an NFL QB. I’m sure his father retiring his jersey just played into that perception. Someone will take him but only as a flyer to see if he comes is without that entitlement.

    All these teams missing on Bond and getting meh big 12 receivers

    I wouldn’t draft Bond with any draft pick to be honest.

    Can NOBODY read a cue card?  Holy shit.  Literacy, it's over.


    I am assuming you are not referring to those two special needs kids who read one of the picks :)
