  1. That was the exact title of the article. All of this outrage over nothing lol. KM had the best high school career because he never lost. VY obviously better in college.
  2. I guess the Texans are looking for the professional version of the “good kids who graduate” roster management style. I imagine it’ll get worse before it gets better.
  3. Byron Murphy is very talented. Moro Ojomo too. Agree that Overshown will play his ass off next year. If we adjusted our defensive scheme to allow him to play more of a traditional OLB role I think he would shine. Other candidates: Jaylan Ford. Anthony Cook. Some random freshman contributor TBD.
  4. Baylor put on a goal line defense clinic. If you can’t get a TD in 7 attempts inside the 2 yard line, you don’t deserve to win.
  5. What made it even worse is they had an incredible 2-point play ready to go. If they run that throwback TE screen in 2OT it’s a win for sure.
  6. Bama beats Georgia. Bama will be ranked 1. Georgia 4. Both win their playoff games. And face off in the championship game. Yay!! No, Georgia is 3. Need to keep the option for both in the NCG.
  7. When your team is clearly playing above their own abilities, your QB literally can’t walk, and your defense has been on the field for 30+ additional plays than the opponent’s you HAVE to go for 2 when you have a chance to win. This game is another reminder that college football coaches are generally just wealthier versions of the meatheads that coached us in high school.
  8. Not going for 2 was soooooooo dumb.
  9. We need to stop having our corners bail out immediately when the ball is snapped every single play. We play with 8 yard cushions on 3rd and 2. The only way this happens is if the DC wants it to. I think the secondary coach is just doing what he’s told. The scheme issues come from the top.
  10. The best thing is to start working towards next year immediately. We better not accept a bowl invite at 5-7.
  11. Things that I think I know: 1. Sark is a good offensive coach. Even with our terribly personnel outside of Bijan and Worthy, we consistently get guys open downfield and have put up a lot of points (with a few exceptions) this year. However, he seems to be maybe not a great head coach/leader. He made what seemed like a good hire in PK but it has turned out to be a disaster. Something needs to change with the defensive staff. All I want to see is us running a base 4 down linemen defense. We’ve been running some variation of a 3-3-5 for the last 5+ years and it just isn’t working. We need to start recruiting pure DE prospects (not the all-DT strategy we’ve been using) in order to be able to get a pass rush and stop the run consistently. I saw us running 2 DL with Oghoufo and Thornton as the “DE” while WVU ran it for 8 yards a carry all second half. It’s unacceptable. 2. We have major, major issues on our roster. WR, OL, DL, and LB are probably the worst. QB is also highly questionable unless second-half Card somehow had a flip switch in his head and regained his composure and accuracy. Regardless, we need to aggressively recruit the transfer portal and turn over the roster. We particularly need upperclassmen who can provide some leadership. A lot of the current upperclassmen look apathetic and disinterested half the time. No matter what, we’re probably looking at a 2-year rebuild, minimum. 8-4 would be a good result next year. TLDR coaches and players both have responsibility for the current suckage.
  12. All I hope is that Bijan and Worthy both stay and play next year. Then some combination of recruiting and the portal for the rest.
  13. We can’t stop the pass because everyone starts 7-10 yards off their receiver and bails out deep immediately. These are basic schematic failures that a high school defensive coordinator wouldn’t make. I can see why the players are so pissed and apathetic.
  14. We are playing 2 defensive lineman. Is it any surprise we can’t stop the run? Fire PK immediately
  15. You’re right. I joined the site in March 2018 as a false flag so I could execute my master plan of commenting on the Virginia gubernatorial race almost 4 years later. Nothing gets by you.
  16. I generally don’t pay close attention to politics but this election is interesting. What exactly CRT is (it’s a collection of ideas, some people have shared views and some do not) and whether “CRT” is taught in schools (probably not explicitly part of the curriculum but there shouldn’t be any doubt that elements of it end up being introduced to students since the teacher’s Education degree probably included a healthy dose) are besides the point. My view is that “CRT” just provided a convenient label for what many people are sick of. Democratic politics has fully embraced the idea that “if you don’t agree with me then you are a racist.” Don’t like my budget proposal? Racist. Don’t agree with me about policing issues? Racist. It goes on and on. Most likely I will be quoted and accused of being racist for making this post. The D’s can choose to see the writing on the wall and back off from the reflexive accusations or they can continue down the same path and get destroyed at the ballot box in 2022 and 2024. People are sick and tired of being accused of racism and are drawing the line at having their kids receive the same treatment. And since I know the accusation is coming I’ll just say it now - I didn’t vote for Trump in 2016 or 2020, nor will I vote for him in 2024 if (when) he runs again.
  17. I may be wrong about this but I think the car service is run by the NFLPA, not the NFL, precisely so the players won’t be retaliated against for using it. In this case it probably wouldn’t have mattered. It seems like he was determined to be a dumbass and nothing was going to stop him.
  18. So one of this lunatic’s goals is to prove how you can save money using prefabricated materials and identical floor plans, yet the projected cost is $1.5 BILLION? For a dorm? WTF is going on here. Also, the fake window is 10x more depressing than having no window at all. Oh boy, looks like a sunny day today! I’m totally not sad anymore!
  19. What’s with everyone excusing PK because he doesn’t have guys that “fit his scheme”? How about ADJUSTING THE FUCKING SCHEME?? Why do only hire Neanderthals who refuse to try anything new? It’s like they would rather get shit on every Saturday so long as they can do it “their way”. Saban ran a pro-style offense for decades until he realized it wasn’t working anymore and adjusted. They now have consistent top 10 offenses. We hire guys who will go to their grave with one scheme because they cannot or will not admit that it’s not working. This isn’t just on defense by the way. Herman’s QB battering ram offense that consistently resulted in injuries at the most important position on the field also comes to mind.
  20. I would support firing PK and hiring literally anyone who promises to play 4-3 man with 1 deep safety at least 60% of the time. My standards are so low that I just want a middle school defense out there. We have tried literally everything over the last decade besides the one defense that is executed with success across all levels of football.
  21. This right here is part of the problem. You don’t recruit quality DL by telling them their role is to eat blocks so that someone else can make a play. It has been a problem ever since Charlie hired whoever the fuck as his first D coordinator. We had Cedric Reed coming off a season where he played a real DE position and IIRC he has somewhere close to 10 sacks. We moved to a 3-4 front and had him playing 4I and guess what, his production dropped to almost 0. He actually publicly complained about this. And every coordinator we have hired since runs some variation of this same scheme. Supposedly PK is a 4-3 guy, but all I know is that I rarely see a defensive lineman set up outside the OT. Games are won and lost along the lines. Until we run a scheme that allows DL to be playmakers we are going to continue to be mercilessly negative recruited, and rightfully so.
