  1. This would be more of a "closed system" type use case (at least initially). There wouldn't be anything really to scam as each night all parties would still be reconciling against it and handling corrections as they do now. Systems now go through a multitude of 3rd party clearing systems for reconciliation. (at least one of which was recently hit by a ransomware attach and they were forced to manually reconcile for weeks). This could effectively begin the process of getting rid of the concept of "overnight" reconciliation and processing as far as funds are concerned. Really would only affect the trading brokerages, banks, funds etc. Definitely not scam-proof, just could reduce that, make things more transparent and expedient.
  2. Florida St should look at "stealing" Jimbo back from aggy since he not only is a championship coach, he knows how to do it at Florida St.
  3. Any other outlets in the master bathroom? If so they should also be GFCI so likely another GFCI outlet somewhere. Also might pull their faceplate and outlet out as well to see if their are wires for you outlet just not connected anymore. (Could have been a trouble outlet so previous owner just took it off the circuit leaving it dead - likely would want an electrician if this is the case)
  4. Sorry...so... where are you located at?
  5. This is a big area the finance world is looking to use blockchain. Ridiculous now that there are areas where days or weeks are taken for final settlement. Would allow for much better and faster collateral use with a much better "paper" trail ... makes surveillance much easier too which has become a larger and larger expense having to report and respond to so many players to insure compliance.
  6. In all seriousness, he didn't look well. The dark circles under the eyes are next level now. Can't remember when I last saw a pic of him not wearing a ball cap and or sunglasses too
  7. Kids? Schools in LA considered some of the best in the country. Love both areas though.
  8. He was looking close to something like this. In this clip you see the ONLY way the OU player kept Worthy out as he was falling was grabbing his facemask and helmet.
  9. I rewatched the times we got in the redzone but didn't score TDs and its maddening... here it is: Rice had only one - Drop Brooks - drops easy catch and stroll into end zone - FG Alabama Game had 2 - Drop Worthy - great route, ball hits him in both hands in endzone and he doesn't catch - FG Drop Brooks - ball hit him in both hands and drops, strolls into endzone otherwise - FG Wyoming had only one- got to 19yd line for 3rd 7 - QE throws same Sanders ball over the middle that almost gets picked - FG Baylor- got to 19yd line for 3rd 8 - QE throws same Sander ball (you know the one), luckily overthrew or would have been picked got to 2yd line for 2nd goal - Mitchell decides he doesn't block or like contact, Brooks stuffed. Mitchell has 2 plays on getting to 2 showing so little effort where his man tackles Brooks or Brooks would have scored of either play. Should never see field with that effort. Baylor makes great stop on 3rd down stuffing outside run. MISSED FG Kansas- Got to 8yd line.. just bad series, couple bad throws stuffed run - FG Got to 12yd line... mixed run/passes, KU just stuffed everything - FG OU - QE pass to Sanders (everyone knows the one), great OU play, interception Got to 7... OU shut it down both run and pass - FG Got to 1yd line... yada yada... not rehashing - TURNOVER ON DOWNS So 11 times on 3 our receivers flat out dropped a TD on 1 Mitchell decides Baylor has cooties and won't touch them or we score on 1 we couldn't score in 4 tries from 1.5yd line
  10. Captain obvious here, but I didn't like that OU scored 24 of its points on its 1st and last possession of each half. (3 of the 4 in under 2 mins). It hadn't been an issue all year but in this game it was huge.
  11. Every QB we have played including Gabriel and Milroe has had their worst game against Texas. I do agree that coaches have and will take responsibility to get players understanding the calls and coverages better, but can't say the calls themselves were wrong. It seems every play was someone not communicating or covering as the call required them to.
  12. Luicci will be able to convince them how brilliant the plan is finding a diamond on the rough, how it was a secret plan being worked on for a long time, executed to perfection.
  13. I'd like to think this has as much to do with OU's incredibly week OOC schedule.
  14. I'm only looking at it from lens that aggy would have to pay some way more than they are currently making. DeBorr is making less than half what a&m paying now. DeBoer gets a nice raise to stay at UW. To your point though...I do think they will have to find another Jimbo - someone a school wants to unload or go after paying the next up and comer a crap ton of money. They currently employ Jimbo, Petrino Addazio and Durkin. It's like the Island of Misfit Coaches.
  15. Have to think Kalen DeBoer - Washington's coach would get a call if Elko says 'nah'.
  16. I don't see how their o-line will be any better next year either. It's lining up to be worse.
  17. I'm not sure aggy could/would fork over the $20M buyout plus likely 10M salary it would require to get Lanning to switch from Oregon. That's another 30M in a year. Even Lanning would probably question if they had enough money left to get him the players he's getting now at Oregon. Elko's their big hope. It would be a good snag too, pulling a coach from a currently higher ranked and better football program like Duke.
  18. Is this thread like the doubling down on Prime can't coach thread?
  19. I get aggy love for a hurt QB that would have won, but it's not like Weigman has looked good against actual teams. He had a 55% completion rate last season, this season against the only 2 teams with a pulse he played against he was 58% and 57%. Max Johnson has a better completion rate every year he has played including this year against actual competition. Johnson feels like a much better fit for the offense they are running.
  20. Someone posted on the rant that aggy hasn't won a road game against a ranked team since 2014?? Is that right? That's just an incredible stat playing in the SEC.
  21. All this run down the clock early in the drive nonsense is just hindsight talk. What was going to happen under the Sark plan was we get another 1st (or two) and OU has no timeouts and we are setting up for a shorter FG to win it and Sark gets credit for a perfect last drive. Getting to a point on the field where we give ourselves a chance to win more than outweighs any let's strategically milk the clock concerns AT THAT POINT IN TIME.
  22. seeing how a QB could get hurt playing for a&m... not seeing a reason for any good QB to want to play QB for a&m
