  1. laughing at the Aggies here is so fucking funny, but let’s remember to save a few laughs for Mark Stoops having to return to that Kentucky job after trying to leave and then having the offer pulled because the fan reaction was so intense
  2. Yeah, I’m thinking this is going to fall apart but I’m loving the show
  3. I know it doesn’t make sense. But it was a #11 jersey that said “Catalon” on the back
  4. I saw Catalon playing in the fourth quarter. I rewound it to confirm because I seems so weird that he didn’t get time early if he was healthy enough to go, but he’d get garbage time reps.
  5. I’d sign off on this being the list in a heartbeat. That wouldn’t even draw blood really. I’m assuming we lose a player or two from the OL and maybe a running back if Brooks returns.
  6. Everyone knows there is no chance they come back. But what I’m presupposing is…maybe they will
  7. Unfortunately this clip seems to be filmed on a potato, but you have to include Vasher as well: Haha, I don’t think I’ve ever noticed how many Tech players we’ve attempted to murder over the years.
  8. In this scenario, don’t all 3 of Texas, Oregon, and Bama make it? With the Michigan/OSU winner as the 1 seed.
  9. If Neyor isn’t healthy, or if he’s not the same athletically as he was before the injury, I wouldn’t be surprised if the coaches aren’t fighting to keep him around. But yeah, if the coaches sell him on being a real part of our plans next season I can’t imagine he’d leave.
  10. Yeah, this is some pussy shit. In the last two seasons we’ve haven’t lost a single game by more than 7 points. We beat Alabama once and it should have been twice if not for an injury and heroics from their Heisman winning qb. We don’t kick the shit out of inferior teams like we should yet but we can absolutely play with anyone.
  11. I’ll think it’s possible we could get in over Oregon IF Alabama beat Georgia, but I may well be completely off on that. You can make an objective argument for it at least. It is absolutely guaranteed that if we win the next two and FSU loses one, we’re in. As sure as the sun comes up tomorrow we are in if that happens.
  12. Well, I’m not sure they should be, but regardless, Texas’ resume gets better if the bama win is over the 1 loss SEC champ that is a top 5 team. Right now it’s a win over the 2nd best SEC team that’s in the top 10.
  13. Yeah, I think this is right. Bama beating Georgia can really only be good for us. The committee will have a really hard time reconciling Texas or Alabama, and you solve that problem by putting them both in over a one loss Pac12 champ.
  14. Absent complete chaos with upsets over the next two weeks, any team that isn’t a conference champ isn’t going to make the playoff this year. Full stop. Anybody worried about winning out but being below a team that isn’t a P5 champ is wasting their time and doesn’t understand how the committee looks at their rankings.
  15. He’s an up and comer only insofar as he’s new to being a college football head coach. He’s 54 years old, he would be the 5th oldest head coach in the SEC. He’s only 3 years younger than Jimbo
  16. Sark makes 5.6 or so right? They’ll pay 5.7 minimum. Those dipshits aren’t going to allow themselves to have a lower salaried coach than us, no matter who it is.
  17. Haha, good lord their dramatic reaction to that tweet being still up. You’d think that link contained the fucking nuclear codes or something.
  18. Haha, after all that Traylor fluffing you’ve been doing the last week…I’m pretty sure this was the exact point many of us have been trying to make.
  19. My first reaction was why the hell would he make that move, but after thinking about it, if they drop a big enough bag he’d have to consider it. He would probably only need to be in College Station for like two years before getting a good P5 job if he turned that offense around in a real way. The possibility of fast tracking your way to an SEC HC job plus millions of Aggie dollars would be hard to turn down. Hopefully his tenuous connection to the Sips makes it a non-starter for them.
  20. I was just wondering the same thing. We’d go after Urban hard again, maybe we get him if we aren’t competing against NFL jobs. FSU hired Norvell that off-season, he would have been a candidate. Campbell was already starting to slide a bit at that point but he would have come up. Kiffin was also hired that offseason, but I don’t really see him being seriously considered (even with his similarities to Sark). I can’t really remember who else we were clamoring for at the time aside from NFL pipe dreams like John Harbaugh or Shanahan.
  21. Need to save a small percentage for if they beat LSU, miss out on a few targets, and have to panic hire Robinson before NSD
  22. So if Traylor gets the A&M job, does Looch hype him up for being a branch on the Charlie Strong or the Chad Morris coaching tree?
  23. I’d like to check your math on 99%, but I won’t argue that slam dunk hires for elite programs are rare. There is usually going to be a certain amount of projection and hope that the guy will translate to the bigger stage. I’m not holding his Gilmer time against him, it’s just that it’s almost irrelevant in evaluating him as a candidate. Someone mentioned earlier, TX high school success hasn’t translated into college success. So he’s a coach in his mid 50s with his most relevant experience being 5 years as a cfb position coach and success in 4 years as a head coach in conference USA. He may kill it at his next job, but that’s a pretty thin resume. I have no idea what Saban’s age when he won his first title has to do with anything. There are zero similarities about their career trajectories.
