  1. As always, I appreciate your information and your takes. The idea that small children could be nubile, however, is rather interesting. I think perhaps another adjective would be more suitable.
  2. I was poking around because of news that a TCU safety commit will OV to Texas and noticed no QBs in their incoming class. According to the 247 recruiting page for TCU, the Our Lads TCU depth chart, and news of Jackson's transfer, TCU has exactly one scholarship QB expected on roster for 2023. Do they have a secret stash?
  3. In retrospect, especially in light of MSfTCU#2, is there some cognitive dissonance in your first complaint?
  4. Publicly identifying Banks as aggy probably gives him ground for a libel suit.
  5. It would not surprise me one bit if there were designated informants just far enough removed from the coach to allow plausible deniability to tell jokes to recruits about Jimbo and his domestic life, among other embarrassing and entertaining stories.
  6. Maybe leave all the catholic jokes and politics for the CR. Studies all run the risk of deliberately or unintentionally reaching unwarranted conclusions because of biases, but they are a better way, especially in the aggregate, than most alternatives to evaluate empirical questions. Cardiac complications are far higher in general in the population that contracted Covid than in the well-but-immunized, BUT there is literature that supports exceptions to this rule. A circa-20-year old healthy male, depending on the injection(s) he received, is in the right demo to be such an exception. The typical injection issue, though, is myocarditis. This story does not sound like death from severe myocarditis. 33-year-olds just have heart attacks (MI) sometimes, especially if there is a family trend. College kids pretty much do not. As stated above, drugs like coke can kill, sport can trigger a risk from silent issues like IHSS, DVT (blood clots) can go to the lungs (PE) and kill, but absent those circumstances, healthy-appearing college kids won't normally keel over. I am interested to see what if anything is ever discovered.
  7. Iron sharpens iron, and more PouxPuePoo can still add to the stench of PouxPuePoo
  8. Beaumont sur mer was better before all the dirty Americans showed up.
  9. Theres something unintentionally funny about the Sooner ending a joke with "blow U," even if it is misspelled.
  10. Well, depends on whether you're in a major football league like the ACC. He's not going to leave a big12 gig to go just anywhere.
  11. We have always won the conference championship in football for our first and last year as members. Granted, the streak is only at 3 opportunities so far.
  12. I agree there are warning signs with 7ish win Steve, but there is also some evidence for competence, and there is some evidence he can change. Sometimes even coaches that get blown out by Rice in their second season and finish it .500 in conference end up making offensive adjustments and doing OK. Agree with waiting at least until we see what 2023 season looks like before pulling the plug. Not sure I think full four years can be given if we start to enter a death spiral though.
  13. Yeah, somehow we got it into our collective psyche that changing majors is OK, changing jobs is OK, transferring schools is OK, changing dating partners is OK, coaches' changing schools is OK, and that we are the land of the free except for young athletes. Those guys need to learn to stay in unhealthy situations and like it.
  14. Well, UTSA only lost to us by 3 touchdowns. And they could beat a real team any year now. Probably deserve to be ranked.
  15. You left out the minor issue of the preventable player death on the MD resume.
  16. Healthy-seeming college-aged males dropping dead from cardiac issues unrelated to just having used cocaine when not involved in athletic activity shouldn’t happen. It warrants an exhaustive post-mortem.
  17. Humiliation is always bad. If TCU looked a little liked they belonged, they could have sold the loss as a net positive: playing for it all. But they didn't look like they played for it all; they looked like they showed up where someone was supposed to play for it all. No one except UGA is the NC, but there are over 100 FBS teams that are not the butt of all manner of jokes today and for years to come. In next year's (and many more) run up to the playoff selection, people won't be mocking Texas for ***ing the bed when we got our chance in '22.
  18. CCGs don't count as bowl games, but there was one circa 2005 that was even worse/ better.
  19. Pay that man to have a work from home job analyzing opponents' tape.
