  1. I read that like even though Cook has been playing well Adimora has a strangle hold on the job. Pretty sure Dunn is best as an outside guy, I think if he came in and was clearly one of our top two CBs the idea was we could move Jamison to nickel but that doesn't seem to be happening. If he's our 3rd CB he'll get plenty of playing time.
  2. Not for nothing, but: I guess it’s debatable whether we pulled that off. Reason to believe if we land Worthy it will go a little better.
  3. What’s the deal with Harrison, he’s been back with the team practicing right? Don’t think I’ve seen him mentioned a single time good or bad. Estelle has got to be in his last year of eligibility at this point so there is no real upside to the coaches having the talk with him about how it will be tough for him to see playing time. Of course he may see the writing on the wall and make that determination himself.
  4. I’m not sure if Herman ever did? Even his victory formation was in the gun.
  5. IT said the staff has their eye on a WR who is considering a transfer but wants to let the spring play out or something like that. I think they said he was a “quality player” which would obviously be way underselling the dude I mentioned. So even if it’s real nothing imminent. You are fine going with a lighter phone checking schedule this weekend.
  6. Oh yeah I know. Been lurking around on Shag and posting here long enough to know when to actually get defensive about shit.
  7. Thought this thread would be a fine place to post baseless wish-casting that I read. Back to female lumberjack talk. Girl 2nd from the right seems like she's hiding some RATs under that flannel and would be legitimately pretty if she wanted to be.
  8. There is likely nothing to this but if you want to daydream a bit during your Friday happy hour, somebody speculated on IT that this was Julian Fleming. Mentioned rumors that he was considering the portal and Sark was a big factor Bama almost signing him. https://247sports.com/Player/Julian-Fleming-46040058/high-school-191412/ I seriously doubt that the #3 player in the country would transfer after 1 injury plagued season but who knows. I didn't go searching on Buckeye boards to check if there are actually rumors. He wasn't on the 2-deep when they started spring fwiw. https://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-football/2021/04/122277/brian-hartline-says-julian-fleming-is-a-special-individual-who-has-missed-crucial-development-time-shoulder-injury
  9. Oh yeah she's on one. Her Twitter page is pretty funny, she basically hadn't tweeted anything since 2019, he mentioned being single at his press conference and she was off to the races.
  10. He has multiple runs in the NFL of 90 yards or more including a 99 yarder. It's not because dbs are so terrified of getting posterized they just don't catch him. My point was he's really fast on the football field no matter what his 40 says.
  11. True, and it sort of goes to the side conversation happening about Derrick Henry's speed. His 40 time was really impressive for his size but the number by itself (4.54) was pretty middling. Watch him in a game though and at times he looks like one of the fastest guys on the field.
  12. Rumors going OU boards that Seth McGowan and Trejan Bridges got busted for breaking and entering and may be kicked off the team. So I'm sure Lincoln will "handle it internally" and they are looking at a suspension.
  13. If Thompson and Moore are our two fastest players on the team I don't feel like we are an especially blazing fast squad. Sark will almost certainly value team speed more the Tom ever did. Schooler seemed so slow on the field last year but he looked pretty damn fast chasing down Bijan (with an angle) and then this blurb has him clocking some of the fastest MPH of the dbs. If Ojomo is really the most technical DL we have and also the strongest and the smartest hopefully this is a breakout year for him.
  14. This has nothing do with with anything really but Killebrew sold me some shoes at Tyler's on the Drag in '07. Was surprised to see a guy on the team working a part time job in the spring. He was nicer than I would have expected. He wasn't really any good at football though.
  15. Ah, yeah you’re right. FCB anyway though.
  16. Great stuff Chip, thanks for clearing that up.
  17. Watching that video made me tense as hell but then I did laugh when the kid told him "you smell drunk". I do wonder if Drill Sgt Dipshit had a few and was feeling even more entitled than usual.
  18. To paraphrase a former president: Futureman me once, shame on - shame on you. Futureman me um - you can't get Futureman'd again.
  19. He didn't have the upside that Finley had but Irby was about to have a really nice season and career before he almost lost his damn leg in 2008. Amazing he ever played again at all.
  20. Our entire offensive staff (save Coleman) spent the last two seasons coaching a WR room that had Devonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle, Jerry Jeudy, & Henry Ruggs. It's not too shocking that they might look at our guys and decide that they kind of suck. I don't think Sark is unrealistic about the talent we have or is trying to make preemptive excuses for the season. He can and should win a lot of games with our current roster. The WR talk is just targeting that as a position that needs to see significant improvement before the offense can get to the level Sarkisian expects his teams to operate at.
  21. Thanks, I thought some of that was suspended with the COVID year but I'm not clear where the NCAA landed with everything. Apologies if this has been covered but where are we on the 25? We signed 21 and added Dunn and Thornton. Oghoufo and the Bama transfer are assumed to still be on the way so that would be 25 but we should be able to count some of the early enrollees back to the 2020 class, correct?
  22. Epps is a senior looking up at two guys ahead of him on the depth chart and might be neck and neck with two freshman early enrollees to even be #3. This summer we'll add Liebrock and maybe Sanders to that group. Yeah honestly he probably should transfer. If he does it early enough to open another scholarship for a grad transfer WR, OL, or LB even better.
  23. That Jason guy has 13 followers and he only follows 5 accounts. One of them being some kind of aggie research account. I'm wondering if maybe what he thinks about Bijan doesn't mean shit.
  24. I don't know if he's a guy who would be ready to contribute immediately but he's fast as hell and WR is quickly becoming the offensive position group I'm most worried about in the short term so I hope the staff would be all over him. Clusterfuck is right. The only guy that seems to consistently be showing out in practice so far is Whittington and we can't trust he'll stay on the field at this point. We've seen Moore play well in stretches and hopefully he stays away from drywall and guns. After that it's brutal. Omeire may be a player but that is based on last year's summer practices and he's not back 100% yet. Jake Smith is hurt, constantly on transfer watch, and may not even be any good regardless. We hope Dixon will emerge but he has 3 career catches. Maybe one of the freshmen can give us something but they are backup choices after the old staff went lame duck last year. We could be staring down the barrel of Kai Money being heavily involved unless we bring in some transfers.
