  1. I want to push back on the optimism for our OL next year a bit Were the KSU and Colorado games encouraging? Yes. But let's not get carried away. We've had high NFL drafts picks starting at LT for the better part of the last six years. I really like what I saw from Karic, and I still believe in Jones's potential, but we will assuredly have a step back at the most important position on the line next year. That's something we'd be foolish to overlook. I also like what I've seen from Majors at Center, but he won't be a high level starter until he adds more core strength. He gets ends up 2 yards in the backfield on a regular basis. This is a problem that has plagued him since high school and I'm not sure that one more offseason will be enough to get him to where he needs to be. I'm confident he'll develop physically at some point and be a great player, but this is the problem when you're relying on first and second year players on the OL. Remember all the talks we've had about how great it will be to put guys on the shelf and not start them until they are upperclassmen? Let's not renege on that. I actually do like our options at guard and RT with Kerstetter returning. None of the guys are great but overall I have a high floor, medium ceiling for those spots next year. This is the same trap that we fell into setting our expectations for the defense in 2019 and the WRs this year--seeing young talent that has flashed and projecting that it will develop at multiple positions. Some will, some won't. Kerstetter is the only one I trust to play well against a good DL and he's coming back from a major injury. We shouldn't expect consistent plus play at more than 3 positions on the OL next year. I'm pretty hyped for Flood though. He just needs time
  2. Tbh I'd rather have Hutzler than the tiny chance at Raymond
  3. Given how Drayton gets crucified for his 2019 recruiting (this comment is not about that), it's a bit ironic that Roschon might have a better career than any of our RB targets that year
  4. If Ash is retained why would he get rid of the guy he just picked to be his LB coach? Feels like Stoops is a Sark thing since they're both at Bama right now, not a Ash/Muschamp thing. Would be a big red flag for me.
  5. I haven't been around much for awhile but the recruiting board is where I post the most, so I guess this is where I'll say it's time for a profile pic
  6. OSU wouldn't try to get him back. He "retired" for a reason there. It would be a huge issue for them. Plus Day is a good coach.
  7. The urban thread might catch up to this one in length and satya still gets shit for being pessimistic lol
  8. Starting to feel a bit bad about all the copy/pasting and most of it is not really new but here's one thing that I found interesting given that Urban has requested control over an associate AD. Stamper has probably been mentioned somewhere in these 290 pages but it's a new name to me. I also didn't realize that Corey Dennis was a Ryan Day promotion. That makes me feel better about bringing him along since it wouldn't just be straight nepotism. I'll also give OB a mini plug. Ketch deserves to get a lot of shit but the good part of OB is the work Alex Dunlap and Dustin McComas do
  9. People starting to get real ornery in here Chill y'all. Flightaware don't make a shit
  10. Another similarity to tack on--his teams start slow early in the season. I think a big part of the reason we're so mad at Herman is that three of our seasons were dead by October. CFB is a lot more fun when your title hopes are still alive late in the year. We've only had one opportunity to really enjoy the hype of a winning team: the two weeks after OU in 2018 which were immediately destroyed with the 21-0 first quarter debacle in Stillwater. Fuckin Tom
  11. I totally get the comparisons between Herman and Campbell, but at this point Herman loses to good, bad, and average team. At least Campbell beats the middling teams (like us fml). Campbell is a better coach than Herman but I would be disappointed with his hire.
  12. ketch coming in hot with some new info
  13. Tweet isn’t showing up for me but I’m out for a bit so if it’s OB I’ll check when I get back
  14. It's over. They just talked about the playoff picture and Ohio State. He is part of their AD after all.
  15. Urban just joined Klatt's livestream of his show thing. They're talking about Ohio State and the game minimum requirement rn He's wearing an tOSU polo doomed
  16. Not really--at this point flight info doesn't really make me feel any better or worse about Meyer taking the job. There are plenty of sensible scenarios where he accepts but doesn't come to Austin until the weekend or next week. So I'm backing off the flightaware ledge but not feeling any worse for it
  17. I get all of that but I'm just saying we're reaching pretty hard if we're being serious for a minute. Urban could literally just be sitting on his couch this week before they go to FL lol. It's all good fun though and I thought the Eltife flight hypothesis was crazy before that got broken so hey it's all possible
  18. Man this shit stopped making sense about 20 pages ago Sense doesn't matter here
  19. My favorite part is OSU fans saying that this would mean Urban is just a mercenary that wants to coach/win and that his health issues were used as an excuse... as if the rest of the CFB world didn't know that already
  20. we've officially hit that point E: someone beat me to it with the image but seriously the last couple pages have gone off the rails
  21. Sam has regressed badly this year. Possibly worse than 2017. But I just want to put it out there that he was a really good passer last year. A lot of people are saying he only had one good year in 2018 but he was dropping dimes all over last year. Sam is gone regardless so the entire hypothetical is moot.
