  1. Scrambling? I've remained steadfast in my stance. Someone asked why would the coach lie. I pointed out the coach's policy on entering the portal. It's understood that you cannot receive official offers until you are in the portal, but there is our coach saying call us back if you don't get the offer you think you are worth. The point is he is doing that to protect the program reputation. Now we all understand that is what you are supposed to do. We expect that. But make no mistake it is still a lie. Just like the coach doesn't come out and say he pushed out 12(random number) players because they weren't good enough. To protect the program. Now I know a lot of people played sports here and a lot didn't, but coaches nowadays use playing time to force kids to drop out of their program. It's the PC era. They even do it at the high school level. My daughter is a high school senior. She committed to play college vball the July before her junior year. That December her college coach got fired. The coaching search took a few months, but then the new coach called immediately after being hired and said she was reevaluating her needs. The previous coach had misevaluated and had a bunch of dead weight on the roster. We knew she was going to have to push someone out to make room for us because the previous coach was honest about her mistake and cryptically said the same. This season goes by and two of her scholarshipped outside hitters immediately go in the portal. She didn't tell them they no longer have a scholarship. She told them she didn't see much of a role going forward. Kids wanna play so of course they are gonna go elsewhere. I am sure no one that hopped in the portal for us was told their NIL was being taken away. I am sure every player still woulda got their money to stand on the sideline. However, if you tell a kid who had dreams of making it to the next level your role will be significantly reduced, they are going to leave 90% of the time. Money on the table or not. That is all I am saying. For me, this wasn't even about Parker as much as it was the amount of kids being pushed out or choosing to leave in general. We seem to be losing more than we are getting back and all it takes is an injury or two and you are ass out.
  2. also, there defense doesn't match their offense. If you are going to have a quick game offense that takes 12 play drives to score, you sure as shit can't pair it with a defense that can't stop the run. It takes you forever to drive the field and then you come off the field and let the opponent grind down the clock with their run game leaving you with very little drives over the course of the game. The Pats ran for 243 tonite.
  3. I mean, they can tread water with Ewers. They got him on the cheap. Today was tough going against The 11-5 Pats when you have a depleted roster and no line. Last week against a lesser team he was out there doing his thing. They are probably looking at it like use Ewers to rebuild and assess. Again, you got him for peanuts, and he will likely get a little better and is already serviceable. Might as well see what you got after a strong offseason.
  4. You never know how old people are here. I mean it's a message board, so you would assume people are ancient but there are some who were too young to really be able to process what they were seeing.
  5. You get Waddle, Achane, and Hill back. Use your picks and free agency to shore up the line and get some help on D. You could get to 9 wins or so. But you ain't winning that division.
  6. Listen dude. I don't know if you are old enough or not so I am going to remind you. In 2005 Vince Young Led the team in rushing with over 1000 yards at 7 yards a carry as a QB and led the team in rushing TDs with 12. He also threw for over 3000 yards as well at 65% with 26 TDs. All while playing for Greg Davis. I said that to say there was nothing sophisticated about our offense. Sark's offense has layups built into it. VY's offense, everyone knew what was coming and still couldn't stop it. When we stopped fucking with him and just let him eat, he was absolutely unstoppable. Literally.
  7. I mean, yeah. All they had was Waddle and Hill and both are out. Achane is out too. Starting TE is out. Lol. Couple that with a bad defense and this is a for sure loss.
  8. Yeah, watching their personnel, there isn't a name brand player out there. We are midway thru the 3rd and the Pats have 180 yards rushing. They are terrible.
  9. Trying to bite off more than he should. Rookie error. Just take the checkdown.
  10. Yeah, this is hard to watch. The Pats have 108 yards rushing and two TDs already in the 1st quarter.
  11. Who are you? Lol
  12. I thought it was known that if a player officially entered the portal (submitted paper work) Sark made it clear there was no returning to Texas. Which is how it has to be. And you would be 100% correct. So if that is the case why is he saying this at the 18:30 mark instead of the truth, which is if you go in the portal it's over?
