  1. Sure looked that way Saturday. Watching Taaffe’s bizarre play it reminded me of playing Madden 95 on Sega and you clicked to change the player and dive and the player you immediately switched to dives crazily in the wrong direction of the play. It’s the only explanation to explain Taaffe diving randomly into the opposite direction of the play. Someone must of been controlling him remotely and they hit the wrong button.
  2. Our safeties, including veterans look lost still. I’m about to go Office Space on Gideon and ask what is it that you do here?
  3. Agree. I was speaking in context of evaluating the wide receivers. Watching a receiver run a fly route and catching a deep pass against busted coverage doesn’t say much about that receiver. Cook made contested catches for first downs against our best corner and that was encouraging.
  4. Johntay Cook had some really nice routes and catches going up against the ones. He’s definitely one of our starting three. As fun as it is to watch a wide open receiver catch a bomb, that doesn’t tell us much. On the Manning to Blue TD, Taffe looked like a walk on. He took such a terrible angle that he nearly tore his own ACL. That was brutal to watch. I bet we see Mukuba and Williams as the starting pair for most of the snaps this year.
  5. I don’t see what Baker has to do with landing these three tackles. They are all connected to Nansen and NIL is doing the rest of the work.
  6. Decommited from Texas, right? Fuck around and find out, I guess.
  7. I feel the same way. If we bring in four players in the portal, who gives a shit who transfers outside of true freshman January. If we had to bring in four defensive tackles, we didn’t have the right players on the roster.
  8. That guy has bust written all over him. He’s in it for the NIL and NIL only.
  9. Because that is what has been happening. Every single DT. Not just a top talent playing a few hours down the road playing for a team from our former conference, every single DT. That is exactly what has been happening.
  10. “Every cow pasture they walk in” was the giveaway that this was actually one of you guys that wrote this.
  11. Goosby would be a big loss. Considering he is slated as a 2025 starter, that would hurt.
  12. Yes I get all of that. But when a 20 minute podcast is half commercial, it’s still impossible to listen to. Everyone consumes this content differently. For me the bulk of the time I’m listening in the car or when I’m running or on the peleton. Those are not easy for me to fast forward through commercials. I’m also a large consumer of podcasts and OTF is by far the most loaded with commercials of any other content I consume. If the model requires 50% of the content to be commercials, it’s time to rethink the model.
  13. Listening to the OTF podcast in the car, it starts out with back to back commercials. Bobby kicks it off with a word from his sponsor before getting into Texas football talk for two minutes. Then it breaks into another commercial. That’s it for me and that podcast.
  14. So far three guys that are not totally unexpected. Hopefully it stays that way.
  15. I listen to the audio on Spotify. The commercial ads are every 2-3 minutes on the last two I listened to.
  16. I really enjoy Gerry and Bobby but holy fuck man. Their last few podcasts have gone full NASCAR with the ads. One 30 minute podcast has 10 commercials now. And the YouTube video has ads plastered all over it. It’s really affecting the quality now. Just too much.
  17. Former NHL center Jason Arnott is a great example of this. The man could not stop trying to hook up with other players girlfriends/wives. New Jersey traded him to Dallas who then gave up on him because of all of the trouble he caused.
  18. That’s good for you. But at Arkansas it apparently did affect the locker room.
