  1. I’ve watched all 3 seasons and I find this show so interesting.  Random thoughts...

    1.  Malik Henry is damn talented but that kid is not repairable.  His father needs to be his father and not his manager.  This kid has had so much pressure put on him, it’s obvious he’s struggling with not living up to expectations.  He’s the result of a kid that has never been disciplined growing up.  The guy has no respect for his mentors bc he’s been told his shit doesn’t stink since being 10.  Now that he is mentally fucked, his father is trying to save his career rather than getting his kid to a therapist.

    2.  Holy shit that juco is the worst.  Makes EMCC look like Bama/Clemson.  Their food was worse than prison food.  No wonder those kids can’t put on weight, they’re starving themselves.  The facilities are worse than middle schools.  Half this board knows more about football than that dipshit HC.  His playcalling is worse than a 13 year old playing Madden.  No wonder his players are frustrated during games.  

    3.  Rakeem Boyd seems like he will tear shit up under Morris at Arkansas.  Kid is talented forsure.  

    4.  For many of these kids, they are there bc they have fucked up every chance even though they were raised in a stable upbringing.  Guys like Malik Henry, Carlos Thompson didn’t grow up poor. They just don’t give a fuck and have squandered every opportunity given to them.  On the contrary, some kids have had really fucked up lives like Bobby Bruce, buckmaster, and Isaiah Wright from emcc.  It’s an accomplishment for these kids just to make it to juco.  It’s obvious that many of them are begging for guidance and someone to care for them.  They’ve been neglected their whole lives.  Both of them ended up arrested and in jail.  Hopefully Buckmaster gets a degree and can get himself out of poverty.

  2. Sam might be the dumbest broad on this season.  She has a power app where she knows whomever is evicted will come back.  Instead of throwing the HOH and letting others go after one another, she decides to win it.  Now her dumbass can't play next week when it really matters.  Rather than coming up with a creative plan where she puts up her allies to make it seem like they are not working together, she actually targets 2 people in the house that weren't coming after her and made it personal during the nomination.  If either Kaitlynn or Haleigh gets voted out, they automatically come back or have a chance to come back.  Then next week when she can't play, if either of those 2 or Feszy wins, she will be their target.  This bitch is dumb.

    I doubt Herman would do so considering before the draft, he had his entire media department promote Deshon, Connor, Malik, etc.  Herman probably told the scouts the truth about their attitudes and mental weakness.  These are the same guys that let walkons from Kansas beat them and then we watched them throw a temper-tantrum and cry on the field.

  4. I swear all of Charlie’s players were mentally weak and coddled.  Charlie coddled these dudes worse than Mack.  Hey Deshon, you had one decent season on a barely bowl eligible team.  You owe your success to the coach Herman and Orlando because prior to them, you couldn’t beat out a walk on.  If this is how he reacts to criticism, he won’t last in the NFL.  Regardless of their differences, you don’t air out your grievances publicly.

  5. We need to take more guys like Roach and Williams every year.  They come in with no set position and are pretty raw but they've got the athleticism and high motor.  As far as Overshown, I have no clue where his body will take him... dude might end up a LB.

    i've always appreciated your taking of positions, you've just lost any and all objectivity when it comes to looking at the actual players since jimbo arrived, which is fine. 

    just got back from 3 weeks in portland / vancouver. why the hell i spend any time in texas between memorial and labor day is a mystery wrapped in ball sweat. 

     

    Lmao, CTJ is probably being generous with his takes given he basically shits on everything including our own players and coaches.  Bizzle, you’re slightly smarter than the average aggie that strolls this way.  I’m not sure you can argue at all with the character risks jumbo is bringing on board.  Just own it man.  Either y’all will win similar to the way ole miss did or you you guys will stumble over your dicks like you guys always do.

    So Caldwell, Watson at corner, Adimora and Catalon at safety? Are we almost wrapped up at DB? 

    This would be a SOLID haul after pulling the insane class we did last year.  I'm really not a big fan of Marcus Banks as a player.  He just comes off as a JAG.  Wolfe and Carter seem like guys that will be future attrition candidates.  Sucks that we missed on Brian Williams and Demani, but I'm impressed with this haul.  Really happy we looked hard OOS instead of settling for guys like Mack would.

  8. The writing was on the wall for him.  He had some good moments under Strong but never seemed to improve.  He seemed a bit overweight his entire career here which is surprising considering he was a safety in high school.  Good luck Ed, hook em.  

  9. I bet you next week, we lead again.  This is going to be a hard recruitment.  I’ll never look down on a kid for picking Stanford, considering our struggles offensively.  

    There is one damn solution and it’s to start winning again.  The minute that happens, Herman will take our recruiting to the level of bama and Ohio state.  Hell he did that last year with a shitty season.  

  10. I’m sure every school plays the game but there are certain schools that blatantly cheat above others.  How do you think Ole Miss was getting all these 5 star guys to move to bumfuck Mississippi while their program couldn’t even get to 9 wins.

    Look at how a&m pulled random guys last cycle that visited once from OOS.  I do think a&m is paying/cheating on another level.  Knowing the narcissistic prick Herman is, I’m sure it’s eating him up inside that he’s losing these battles.  I’m sure he will lead reporters in a certain direction and at some point we will see reporters drop articles the same way Mack Brown did with Will Lyles.  This will atleast get those aggy fucks to scale back their cheating once the spotlight is on them. Atleast i hope this is what happens.  That or we open up our bank accounts to make it an even playing field.  At this point the ncaa has made it clear they will not police schools.  Every damn sec school is doing it.  Remember when that Florida db recruit (irving?) was going to commit to us but suddenly committed to Auburn and had Snapchat pictures of him holding stacks of cash.  Yeah... 17 year olds don’t have access to that type of money on recruiting visits unless someone is handing it to them.

  11. Yeah we should drop the Chris Steele talk.  That guyshas yet to visit Texas and is committing soon.  

    As far as Banks goes, who knows... but he's not an elite guy.  Like someone else mentioned, he's more like Kobe Boyce... a guy you take for depth and try to develop.  He's Texas good but there are definitely better prospects out there.  The Mack Brown regime would have taken his commitment where as Herman and staff will take their chances trying to find guys that are better.  I really like this approach.  There will be more guys we can choose from if we can't find someone better than Banks.  Also, watch his camp videos... he didn't do very well out there against the WRs.

  12. I’m 30 and my squad members are 30 too.  Whether kids play it or not, it’s a fun fuckin game.  It’s a game for all ages.  Doesn’t make me rage like overwatch.  Overwatch is a great game but I wanted to break my controller every time we’d play a competitive match and people would quit or pick shitty characters.  This game is fun whether I win or lose 

  13. Still haven’t had the chance to play solo on thanos mode. I did get two duo wins this morning. The 2nd win was hilarious.  There were only 4 people left.  My duo and two solo guys.  My partner and I had decided to launch it to one of the enemy’s fort.  He sees us launch and gets scared.  Mid air I see him place a launch pad and launch it to our fort.  We landed on his launch pad and launch it back to ours and as I pull my shoot I see him Launching it back to his fort.  This went on about 6-7 times before we were able to kill him.  The circle was pretty small at this point.  I can only imagine what the other solo guy was thinking watching 3 guys launching it back and forth a for a good 2 minutes haha.

  14. Man this game is fucking fun.  I don't care what anyone says.  I find myself laughing half the time playing it.  I do like that they do fun random events.  I'm looking forward to the infinity war gauntlet.  It would be sick to find the infinity gems and turn into Thanos.
