    He is looks and acts like a bald version of Alex Borstein's Gap Troll from the MadTV days. 

    He reminds me of the grandfather from Christmas Vacation that blew up the cat. Senile, angry, and a complete drag on any situation.

  2. He was not in DKR’s class, but he was the next tier down and easily the 2nd best coach in our history. He was a bitch at the end, but I would be too if hanging around an extra few years meant $15 million. All in all, very happy he is part of our history and not another school.

    I drive for Uber some weekends. Drove last night and gave Carter a ride from west campus to 6th. From the way he was talking, I would not peg him as a transfer candidate at all. I asked him if he was gonna take the starting job this year, he said it's already done and gave me the shhh.

    Also had Burt and Kirk Johnson in my car last weekend. Couldn't get a lot of info out of them, but Burt did say they don't expect Herman to be calling plays this season and that Herman has lightened up quite a bit this year compared to last. Johnson said he is healthy now and he expects to have a better season than Foreman did in his last year and that he plans on getting drafted after this season. He's got the confidence thing going for him at least.

    Between uber drivers, rickyspub, and the tfb guys content, the lines of reality are going to be a moving target for many on the board.

    God help us if Orlando ends up coaching another B12 team.

    There is not another B12 job worth taking that may open up over the next year or two other than possibly Iowa St or WVU.  Now that he is up around $1.5 per year, he can sit back and wait on that perfect opportunity and I would think he will be in line for bigger schools than that.

    Goddamn this thread to hell. The one fucking thread that needed to die in a fiery crash at the old place. This is like moving to new house and deciding that you have to bring that nasty ass couch that you had from college with cigarette burns and cum stains all over it with you. Give that shit to Goodwill or put it out on the curb.

    I don't think I ever negged anybody but Bedoin on the Shag, but me and my 50 post micro epeen is frowny facing the shit out of anybody who puts a serious post in this bullshit. This thing needs to be crowdsourced.

    Shit we found on Shaggy without a metal detector.

    Amazing how aggy is so hung up on turditions and such, but loved it when Rumlin candied up their uni's for 5 years in a desperate attempt to grab attention. Wonder if anyone has pointed out to them their old daddy (as well as their new one, Bama) never joined in the "LOOK AT ME!!" alternate uniform crowd? Maybe someone should..

    Blue blood programs with true winning tradition have not really embraced the alt unis other than a game here or there. Maybe that is why aggy did?

    Hopefully he doesn’t get drafted by Cleveland. He can probably overcome their suckitude but hopefully we wont have to.

    A cellar dweller team would get immediately better with Dicko. The stats around avg starting field position and scoring across the league are pretty remarkable. For a guy that can kill it inside the 20 80% of the time, that translates to a massive bump for defensive statistics. 

    I remember Al Davis drafting Janikowski in the first round 20 years ago. This would be a draft pick that I wouldn't think twice about in round 3 or 4 if I were an aggressive GM looking to find the final pieces for a playoff run.

    Maybe, but taking a guy that has only played in 1 game in 2 years because of multiple knee injuries kind of tells you how desperate WV is. 

    1 tackle vs Western Michigan in 2 years isn't exactly "quality" help. I think WV is to the point where they just need bodies, which isn't exactly ideal. 

    I present to you the same desperate thinking that landed us Tristan Nickelson. We all know how that turned out.

    So, where are folks thinking Poona gets drafted?  First, second or third day?  

    What tech does he settle in?  Where do you expect him to play?  What team may benefit from him?

    What success could he have?  Backup?  Rotational?  Starter?  Pro Bowler?

     

     

    My guess is day 3 pick. The rest of the answers are 100% dependent on who takes him, but I would be shocked if he does not become a starter at some point in his career.

    Is Hudson expected to be ready for the start of the season?

    Possibly by the start of fall camp, but big men and knee injuries can be slow heals. I doubt he is back to full strength until conference play.
