  1. Hard to know whether he lost that toe more because of the gravity of the injury, technical issues with his index/early procedure(s), poor protoplasm, poor cooperation with his postop restrictions, bad luck, or some combination. I have never had a sports surgery end in an amputation (this is where I would knock on wood if I were superstitious). edit I say toe, but that’s only because there’s one toe that matters more than the others.
  2. Actually not far off a Gig’em yell practice special
  3. Yes, as in that coach may be super-expensive to fire and may not know it yet, but he is soon to be deep-hearted.
  4. If I am reading correctly, the current sentiment is F Ron Holland.
  5. Not as many people are familiar with the "Doppel-G-ie" (ggie), but it is pronounced "ssit," somewhat similar to the "Esszett" (ß) making the "ss" sound.
  6. Quasi adoptive parent of player. Person I’ve known for over a decade.
  7. Sanders literally had his staff clean most these guys’ lockers out. If you showed up and your stuff was in a pile, you knew how your post-spring-game meeting was going to go in advance. Some of the guys, like Courtney (the one who publicized the lack of access to Hudl), still had lockers but chose to leave.
  8. After the fact, this is going to be a case study in something. For now, 🍿

    49-0

    Point: OU was without Dillon Gabriel when we curb stomped them last year Counterpoint: Gabriel started in their 6 other losses, and Venables coached all 7
  10. As bad as they are, technically aggy are not FCS.
  11. Are you [sic] of the corrections?
  12. “If you need a QB real bad, we’ve got a real bad QB” edit: context— with regard to aggy/FSU offer
  13. Would be very amusing should Bama put all its eggs in the Tulane basket only to learn too late that Gator found a sugar daddy willing to outbid the gumps.
  14. That's nice, but really our former conference-mates that spent so much energy hating us can jump in a lake. If they want to play us, they can get in line like every other tier 2 school. I like the idea of a marquee H/H. I would be in favor of having two models for the other two non-con games: HH/H for tier-two opponents and pure H for the "filler" game. That would give us 4 conference home games, 2 (occasionally 3) non-con home games, the RRS, 4 conference road games, and (usually) 1 non-con road game (coordinating to ensure our marquee road game doesn't happen in a tier 2 travel year). Schools may need a little cash from us for the non-marquee agreements, but our home games generate enough revenue that both schools can come out ahead by playing them more at DKR. I would be in favor of giving scheduling priority to schools that increase recruiting exposure and are travel-friendly (i.e., no return away games in places like Manhattan, KS). Even the "filler" games need to be someone worth watching, even if the game isn't in too great of doubt. No App State, haha.
  15. As a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with experience covering P5 athletes, I’m afraid even my professional opinions on this matter are officially CR material.
  16. They finished with equal or better conference records than teams in both divisions: middle tier. AKA tied for last place.
  17. It’s the four most challenging years.
  18. If, as a Texas football player, you could imagine (let alone execute) a transfer to OU, you need out of the locker room post haste. It’s like a deep-sea creature dreaming about a lava flow.
  19. I don't know you! That's my purse! Edit sorry my link doesn't play.
  20. For many 'Horns alumni, the time on the forty represents the 4 most challenging years of their academic career. With Sooners, many say the exact same thing about their time in 3rd grade.
  21. This right here. 2-7-7 means you will have a (presumably rotating) intermediate frequency opponent. 3-6-6 is clean, but 2-7-7 would work if the league were at 17 teams.
  22. I don't know about you guys, but conference championships matter to me. Effectively throwing a CCG to improve odds in the NCG would make me ragey.
  23. This isn’t tricky. He’s talking aggy games.
  24. Of course he needs to win something. It’s put up or shut up season, and he said as much in the interview with his remarks that the team looks like his team and is on track. No blaming the past. Agree the repeated thanks to Saban and effusive praise of the man are markers of gratitude and completely non-narcissistic. Wife has his balls in her purse. Probably better that way. He was bad at adulting when he managed his personal life. Guy has made his living by dint of effort. Believes in adapting. Has worked under Pete Carroll and Saban. Positives. Of course the interview was a recruiting pitch. That doesn’t make it inauthentic. In-game adjustments, let’s see some this year.
