My behavior on OTF has been reported and now I'm hearing about it. I did not say a single cussword and did not call anyone a name. Several people have told me to kill myself. It's always the same shit on those sites. They're inhabited by more echeeses than anything.

I can't figure out if it is a bit with you or if I am going insane. I see pics that don't render from your posts at least once a day. Am I the only one? I don't have this issue with any other posts. Is SouthAustin an broken image posting imbecile? It's got to be one or the other.

I think it's just you.  They show up fine for me.  Try another browser to see if they work in it.

It’s an Eddie Murphy gif relevant to current discussion, and yes it renders.

A lot of my gifs are pulled from Yarn, and I’ve noticed for whatever reason that those images can show up one day and then blank out another.

I’m an imbecile, but not for this.

LMAO reading that thread. You tried, but these 9.95 posters will never change. 99% of non moderator content on there is unreadable.

At this risk of starting a fracas in here too, is it really crazy that Flood would still be tinkering with the OL? Like maybe they have the 8 guys they trust, and they're just trying to figure out if the pieces can fit together differently? 

I work with a lot of smart people who will still waste time and energy running a dumb idea into the ground just because they want to be absolutely certain that it's not a good idea. Maybe moving Neto to LT is just Flood's version of "sounds ridiculous but let's just see..." I'm going even farther further even more out on a limb, but maybe they're doing it because Neto has asked to play LT? It's the premier OL position and he's in his contract year. I get that this would be wasting valuable reps, but maybe it's worth it. 

I'm not saying there aren't greater injury concerns at play. But are these other ideas really that outlandish?

No. Just go with the obvious answer.

Goosby is hurt worse than anyone is saying and they're trying to figure out if they can win against Ohio State with some other option, or if they're going to press forward with a physically limited player. They don't tell the truth with injuries, and I don't blame them, but Vogel is too naive to actually filter out the bullshit part of the news.

Occam's Razor wins here. The simplest answer making the fewest assumptions about why they'd suddenly be moving three different positions around while the starting LT is missing practice is that the LT is either hurt in ways that need to be gameplanned for or something off the field happened and it's the same same from there.

Agree that the most logical explanation is Goosby is hurt worse than reported and they don’t like Chatman or Brooks starting at LT against tOSU and are trying to find an answer. This is obviously a disaster scenario for that game.

They also may not like what Neto has done at LG and prefer moving Hutson there and starting Robertson at C.  They are then trying Neto at LT because they also don’t like their options at backup OT.

I don't see them either. And I also don't see them on what feels like a daily basis.

It's at the point now that a bunch of them are piling on top of one another to put me on ignore and brag about it. It's pretty outlandish, but it does make it easier to address shit in the future with Bobby, Gerry and the like without having to deal with a bunch shrieking harpies in the process. 

Some guy also called me a bad fan and the biggest longhorn fraud on the Internet. I don't know why that kind of stuff entertains me and makes me want to interact further, but it does.

OTF behaving like 247...  Jeff Howe was terrible on there if you disagreed with him.  

Howe and Rod Babers did a season preview on aggy. Jesus H. Christ.

Some lowlights:

- York is a top 5 LB in the country. Yes, they really said that. Look it up if you don’t believe me.

- aggy might have the best rushing attack on Texas’ schedule.

- Generic SECN like sentiments about aggy’s roster. NFL talent all over the roster, but can they put it all together?

Flood shit the bed a little the past two cycles of replenishing personnel. I'm not saying he's solely responsible. And that's not being negative or hating. This has been a common opinion on public subscriptions boards. People get real touchy when it's mentioned. It's to the point where dullards will recite "I guess you'd like to see Strong or Herman back if you're so unhappy with this staff." Holy shit. The internet.

Last year Mills flipped away late. He was IOL I’d imagine but still they lost him late and couldn’t or chose not to replace him with equal talent for equal compensation.  Too much of that and you will find yourself low on serviceable bodies in the name of not compromising on talent.   Then they don’t seem to be fans of portal OL as band-aids.

I don't get it. Why even be on a message board if just basic conversation on the OL turns you ragey. 

Not to get too conspiratorial, but I've sort of been waiting to read "They actually prefer Hutson at guard and Robertson at center over Neto at guard and Hutson at center." Maybe with Goosby out Neto goes to LT, and with him we get Goosby-Hutson-Robertson-Campbell-Baker.

Or maybe they're just tinkering with different options.

I don't think that's too conspiratorial and two things can be true at once. I think Goosby is hurt worse than anyone is letting on. I also think they'd rather have Robertson at Center and Hutson at LG, but that complicates some things with the Omeozulu family and they like the Edge brother. It'd be fucking great if the guy could actually play Tackle. I've lost faith that he's worth a shit at this point, though.

Prettaaayyyy, prettaaayy good. I'm sure I'm on ignore lists on this site, but there are thousands of users and lurkers. I don't think that site has thousands of posters. I just went up in flames with like half of their board. It's comical but now it has me wanting to post more there.

It's possible I imagined it, but I thought in one of the OTF videos they said Goosby's injury was to a finger. Not sure that squares with missing multiple practices or how that would be managed, if I heard and recall correctly

It's also way harder to make it to the bigs on freakish athletic ability than it is to make it to the NFL on that ability. His freak athleticism at that size is a bigger advantage in football than baseball by a wide margin.

I mentioned it a few weeks ago, but they did not do a very good job of getting the tackle cupboard restocked with options once it became clear Banks/Williams were potentially going to be 3-and-out players, and guys they recruited at tackle like Agbo/Kirkland were not going to be good enough to play here. 

The 2024 and 2025 classes needed another tackle. But even then, I'll acknowledge they should have probably backfilled from the portal at some point, even if it was a redshirt freshman from Wake Forest or some such that was a developmental take with a little game experience. Bama took one of those this year from Ball State. It didn't need to be a frontline guy who was going to cost seven figures.

If they don't like Neto at LG, it makes zero sense to move him to LT.
