  1. I really want to like this proposal, but at the same time I hate it just simply for the regionality aspect. I really don't want to have gone to all of the trouble of the SEC move and all associated ass pain just to wind back up in a "Texas/Oklahoma region" with the same group of teams we just left plus SMU and aggy.
  2. They don't call him the screech owl for nothing.
  3. This. I said earlier this week that Cook and Wingo are two different players. The guys who make splash plays like Wingo are always going to get the press, but the guy who can consistently give you 8 catches for 90 yards will win you games. Cook is the latter.
  4. They just want to keep our stank off of them. I completely understand.
  5. I will have you know sir that Charlie Strong literally combed the desert for the finest OC in the land. 247 told me so.
  6. In a fat girl at last call kind of way.
  7. I don't think there is any real mystery. We lost a high quality veteran to the NFL, we had Anthony Hill, a guy who has never seemed to put it all together in Gbenda, and a couple of redshirt freshmen/sophs with promise but not much experience. They wanted some veteran leadership in the room, and potentially some Gbenda insurance.
  8. In part, but he was also used as a space player and a guy they tried to get out on the edge. He was really good in the pony package as the second back. That is what he used to bust big plays versus Ok State in the B12 title game.
  9. Mukuba was played at slot last year after having a more promising run at Safety, where he projects in the NFL. He was less effective as a slot and I have heard that he is being used at Safety primarily so far.
  10. I think he has been forced to see the light on that, at least if reports are to be believed.
  11. I don't see how anyone could be bullish on their portal class. It is comprised of a bunch of sun belt and FCS guys to replace 4 and 5 stars. But it is low hanging fruit at this time of year to be able to point to the portal because nobody has seen them play yet. Member when Nebraska got all lathered up about Casey Thompson because he threw one nice pass in their spring game? I member. There were podcasts and articles ad nauseum about how much of a game changer he was going to be based on literally one play.
  12. I think he actually brought in some quality defensive coaches this cycle who know how to recruit. Similar to Texas, it isn't hard to be successful once you graduate from the land of gross incompetence. It wouldn't surprise me to see USC have a good class.
  13. It will be equally exciting and perplexing.
  14. So I just spent way too much time going through his highlights from this past year. I am not sure this one is anything to be too broken up about if he does go elsewhere. He has nice vision and is slippery in the hole to pick up extra YAC, but both Clark and Gibson are similar players in terms of skillset. He doesn't jump off the screen as being elite.
  15. i am continually amazed at how terrible these people are at basic talent evaluation and cognitive thinking when it is literally their jobs to cover this stuff.
  16. If someone wastes a draft pick on Joe Milton they should be immediately escorted from the building.
  17. I could see us being behind Ohio State, but Michigan, USC, and Bama are all highly debatable. It would be splitting hairs either way.
  18. Platinum members get to wash his car while he makes them hand made brisket.
  19. Do you even Tyler Johnson bro?
  20. Tapp has been developing nicely, and keeps growing. It would not surprise me if they move him over to Jack behind Sorrell. Akana seems to me to have been a bad take. 215 lbs and the guy is almost 21. I doubt he ever really sees the field.
  21. Finkley is a good player and he got better late in the season, but he has a real ceiling on his physical attributes due to his length. He is a good player to come in and spell a starter, but I bet Vasek and/or Tapp passes him with a strong spring. He also plays school though, so who knows if he would leave. The other guy I am a little concerned about is Billy Walton. The staff loves the guy, but with Simmons and Moore coming in, I wonder how many snaps he actually gets.
