Roach is up and coming. I wonder which coach is feeding him info? Oh, wait, nevermind.

*shrug*... I had a few questions coming away from that quick conversation for sure...

He seems to have an interesting personality. I had a strange conversation with him at the meet the horns event Sunday. I told him I was looking forward to seeing him jump over some dudes this season. He got kind of serious and didn’t really look me in the eye and said, “we don’t jump over people in this program.” I said something like, “ hmm. Oh yeah?” And the guy next to him said something to the effect of the league doesn’t let them hurdle over people. I told him that wasn’t what I meant, I meant Mossing some guys and then it seemed like he just said “oh ok”.

I want Mutha Hustla in that chat room, stat.

Roach knows nothing, John Snow

Yeah, that would really suck until she started giving me tons of money.

How about "Coach Giles: CTJ, how my ass taste?"

Another article from Roach where it looks like he just summarizes info that’s already out there for people who casually follow recruiting... I’m not sure there’s one pertinent piece of information there about a recruit that wasn’t already out there. He’s kind of reminding me of the guy Spectrum sent to my house to install my cable internet service. I ended up having to do most of it, while he wandered around aimlessly. The guy even asked me to carry his stuff upstairs for him at one point...

I’m kinda thinking Bru is doing something similar to when Ricky disappeared from the Dolphins to “find himself” in India. Maybe it’s a Californian thing. He must be a very mature young man to do that at this age.

Dang it... just made the same joke on another thread and then saw you’d already been there...

A sleeping giant has awoken... and his initials are OG.

What starts here really does change the world...

So I met a lot of these guys at today’s meet the Horns event. I hit up the safeties, OL, WR, QB, then DL. I also had a chance encounter with DGF after and got to talk to him for a few minutes. thoughts: Tyler Owens looks the part. Adimora looked a little younger and may still be growing. Not particularly small or anything, just looked as young as he is. Hookfin looks bigger than I thought. I don’t remember Tyler Johnson or Willy Tyler, must have not recognized them. Shepherd has good size. I asked him if his recruitment was really as difficult as it was made out and he said it was a really hard decision. I told him he made the right choice and he said “yeah I did.” He was actually very friendly and seemed like a good dude. Braun looks about like you’d expect and said he was liking it here and it’s a culture change for sure. Marcus Washington looks strong (thick arms) and he was taller than I thought. Jake Smith looks well put together too. I don’t remember Kennedy Lewis either. Roschon is pretty thick. Sweat is really really big. I said “whoa, you’re even bigger than they said” and he replied “yeah, I am.” He was kinda funny. On second thought, maybe that was innuendo that he slipped in Surly style.... don’t remember Myron Warren either. DGF was walking right by me to exit the event and I talked to him for a bit. I told him that I had a herniated disc and it just went away. I said I didn’t have spinal stenosis though, which I heard that you had and he nodded. He said he wasn’t having any pain or any tingling in his arms or anything and that he feels good. I told him I was excited to have him on campus and to keep his head up.

I usually don’t go to stuff like this but my father in law wanted to. I’m in this video, right in the first frame in fact... FWIW... The safeties think Kaden is fine. Didn’t make it to the RBs. De’Gabriel Floyd said he was doing well and wasn’t having any pain or tingling from his neck issues. Sweat is even bigger than I imagined. The whole team looks good.

Ok, that’s good.

Is there any sort of medical explanation for why some guys are more injury prone than others?

He could literally walk into any pool cleaning business in the market and get a job.... Then he would get fired.

Here's my progress so far... In about Jan 2018, I was at my heaviest at 222 lbs and I’m about 6’2” and carry it pretty well. I’m also 40 years old. I’d guess I was at about 28% body fat or so. I lost about about 20 lbs in a month or two with most of it on the Whole30 diet, which was a really difficult diet to do. I kept that weight off for most of the year (2018), but put on a few pounds in Feb 2019, when I got sent to Key West for work for two weeks. So, in April 2019, I was probably around 210 and around 24% body fat. In April 2019, I decided to take a month off drinking and, after a week, realized that I should also be dieting while I was at it. I did Keto for a month and lost about 10 lbs, to around 200 lbs and 20-22% body fat. Keto was fine for a short duration, quick loss, but I don’t really think it’d be great for an active person for long periods. Through all of the above periods, I went to the gym and did my normal old routine where I supersetted alternating muscles and used reps of around 8-10 for three sets. I’d also occasionally run. During non-diet times, I’d mostly eat whatever I want. Mostly drank on the weekends. At about 1 month into Keto, I decided to really focus on losing body fat percentage. I started reading www.muscleforlife.com and doing heavy compound lifting. I also switched my diet to his cutting plan. I eat about 2100 calories during the week (M-Th) and about 200g or more of protein all days of the week. I don’t really diet in any other way. On the weekends, I eat more liberally and usually drink in Fri and/or Saturday and get to about 3000 or more calories and Sunday I usually end up around 2600. I lift heavy weights 4-5 times per week and run maybe 3-5 miles on Saturday, if I can. I got measured yesterday afternoon at 190 lbs and 14% body fat. In the mornings, I’m around 188 lbs and dropping. I have a vacation to Spain in about a month and want to get to 10-12% body fat before I go. TLDR- I lost about 30 lbs and 14% body fat over a 2 years in total, but all of it was in periods of diet and/or focused exercise planning. Heavy weightlifting and macro counting protein works best.

I think ESPN is just trying to tell Aggy that its time to let go... Also, the male chearleaders coming out at the crescendo of the song is an interesting touch. Its probably part of Disney's overall effort to promote LGBTQ stuff.

Damn. I can't help but feel this is the beginning of great things for Auburn. Its good to see them step out from under Alabama's shadow. This will change everything for the school, much like when A&M went to the SEC.

It seems like he’ll answer anyone about anything.

All these statistics are meaningless when you factor in the incontrovertible fact that SEC teams only want to play for championships and therefore basically hand the opposing teams victory in regular bowl games.

You and Vic should ask them on a double date.

Like you, most people here are just thinking about how they can use him. Some of us just want to be the one that puts a smile on his face.
