  1. I have a hard time seeing that guy move from Texas to Ole Miss without there being another reason behind it. Sucks because he was good in that role, but we’ll be fine.
  2. JJA would have been a 4 star if he was going to Texas
  3. Give him all the love until he can strike up a good relationship with Baker. I’m sure Bo is working him for LSU already.
  4. If he were in the portal or even submitted his paperwork, word would have long been leaked before his visit.
  5. The SEC has traditionally had less than great offenses outside of a few standouts every year. It also tends to be more athlete driven than scheme driven. DeBoer, Kiffin, and Heupel are the ones I'd be looking at as plus scheme guys. Kirby Moore, OC at Mizz is good. We'll see about Litrell at OU. We'll see about LSU's offense post Jayden Daniels. Georgia has overwhelming talent against most, but can be had when they don't overwhelm you. Unless we're really up against it up the middle of our defense this year, we'll be fine.
  6. Effort and salesmanship will always matter, no matter how easy it gets. The leads still gotta be worked properly, no matter how good they are.
  7. 48-0 KSU over OkSt Howard went for 4 TDs. Muhammad didn't look great out there at all.
  8. Hopefully he does better against Will Howard this time around.
  9. Is this a bit? Do you actually watch the games? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Kris Ross was moved to Edge before getting kicked off the team. He was certainly one of the twitchier if not the twitchiest guy we had at that position last year. Long arms to boot. He probably didn't have the best references leaving here, but you'd think someone would have taken a flyer on him if he was actively pursuing other options.
  10. Opens up another spot on the staff to fill. He was one of the 3 spec asst. to the HC guys on the team. He's going to USCe to be an actual on-field coach as special teams coordinator. Much like Akina, can't blame them for taking the other offer.
  11. I'm relatively ambivalent on the hire. Would not have felt much better if it were Rod Wright. Just saying shit to drive discussion. We will see pretty quickly if this guy is Texas quality or not either way. It also doesn't hurt to have another young AA coach on the staff.
  12. Do we always hire the more experienced candidate when filling positions? I'm not excited by the hire, but I also lack the information to really assess it. When experience is lacking, we rely on reputable references and context to fill in the gaps. HOT TAKE: I think this guy is gonna make his name here, learn from PK and Nansen, and be a DC candidate in 5 years or so.
  13. It's only a gamble because you don't know about him. I doubt Sark just threw a dart on a board and it landed on this guy. The main reason why people think this is settling is because of the lack of information we have to view this. He's an ambitious guy and seems to get his guys to play hard for him.
  14. The people only expecting this guy to only be depth should also realize that he's younger than both Broughton and Collins. If they can improve, then he can too. Good looking DT.
  15. It may have been lost in the sea of off-topic stupidity.
  16. He developed himself into a five star HS DT prospect, big time contributor at Texas, and eventual draft pick and NFL player. Now, he's developed himself into a pretty good coach worthy of being considered as the DL coach at his alma mater. He's also young enough to relate to most of these guys while still commanding respect. He doesn't have a ton of skins on the wall as a coach, but I'm sure he can sell what he's accomplished so far in his life.
  17. Worthy was also playing very hurt in that game and couldn’t break like he normally does when healthy.
  18. They’re cousins, but they’re so close that they might as well be actual brothers
  19. People can improve/decline year over year. People can also perform differently in new circumstances. Lots of moving parts right now.
  20. Chatman, Akana, and Walton aren't going anywhere. Burrell probably sticks around unless he doesn't see a path. I could see Holmes leaving if he gets in a dogfight in the spring. If we get J. Muhammad, M. Muhammad and T. Brooks would split time in the boundary, and M. Muhammad could easily spell J. Muhammad when needed. That leaves Holmes, Roberson, Black, and Mack fighting for snaps in the spring. I could see Red leaving as well. Competitive spring upcoming. Hopefully everyone stays healthy.
  21. They gotta beat Oregon and Penn state on the road with Will Howard at QB. That defense is gonna need to carry them. Or hope for BoB creativity to get the offense right. I also think Dillon Gabriel is the best QB in that conference right now.
