  1. I wonder if Karic would be open to dropping to 270 and playing inline tight end.
  2. I'm just waiting for one of these kids or their family to publicly admit what deal they got, thinking incorrectly that it is NIL and it is legal now. I'm curious when they were offered these deals how it was presented. Are the boosters trying to blur the issue and mention NIL so the family feels better about it, or is it still perfectly understood that this is not above board and they need to keep quiet.
  3. Why does the highlighted section specify "prospective" student-athletes, but the others don't? It makes it seems like it doesn't apply to current student-athletes.
  4. UA game is tomorrow at 1pm central on ESPN. Army game is Jan 8th at 12pm central on NBC.
  5. Wait I thought we wanted the defense to be all chocolate no marshmallows
  6. It matters when you are sticking your arms out in front to prevent a rusher from getting in to your body. The portion of your wingspan that is your shoulder width doesn't help in that situation. But also fuck Gabe Brooks.
  7. Ehhh, I took it more as Sark trying to be clear that there was not an offer out or a deal in place already, in case it doesn't work out one side won't look like they shot the other down.
  8. If the motivation to go there was the bag, and not because you like the school/coaches/town, what happens next? Now you have to actually live there and go to practice and class. Where is the motivation? I'm sure a lot of these guys can still be successful, look at someone like Leal who took the bag but still developed. Bryce Anderson seems like a good kid AFAIK, he just bought into it somehow. But the mercenaries? It will be fun to watch when things don't go as planned.
  9. He just wants to be able to tell recruits Jimbo turned down more money to stay at A&M, so when Texas offers you tons of NIL cash do what Jimbo did.
  10. I always thought TCU did a good job of playing zone but having the DBs recognizing routes. At some point zone needs to turn into man, the point isn't to just cover grass. Our guys don't react until the ball is already caught. Is that something Patterson could implement as an analyst, or do you need film and on the field instruction? I would guess the latter.
  11. It's almost like new information has come to light in the last three months.
  12. The sad thing is we didn't even need above average defense this year. With a defense that was lacking playmakers but was at least competent we would be sitting at 8-2. My assumption at this point is that even the players who are trying hard don't have trust in what they are being coached to do.
  13. I think the offensive coaches can sell we are missing a couple pieces. I think there need to be multiple changes on defense or there will be massive attrition and no quality replacements.
  14. Here is our performance last year for reference. 5 - L - OU 9 - l - ISU 20 - W - Oklahoma St 29 - L - TCU 37 - W - WVU 63 - W - Baylor 67 - W - K State 69 - W - Colorado 76 - W - Tech 123 - W - UTEP The Oklahoma State game was a "good" win, but otherwise looks similar, assuming we don't lose to WVU. My impression of this team vs last year is the talent is down and the coaches are better, but not by much.
  15. Here is the schedule vs the F+ rankings 9 - L - OU 13 - L - ISU 18 - L - Baylor 21 - L - Oklahoma St 29 - TBD - K State 30 - L - Arkansas 53 - W - ULL 58 - TBD - WVU 64 - W - TCU 67 - W - Tech 125 - W - Rice 126 - TBD - Kansas The optimistic view is that we are a fringe top 25 team, that got steamrolled on the road in a hostile environment in game 2 of a new regime, and then played our top 4 opponents in a row and lost as expected. If we were to win out this would make sense as a narrative for the season. How much of the recent trend was us simply playing better teams, vs not getting better or actively getting worse? I have no fucking idea. At this point though it is certainly possible or maybe even likely that we will underperform and lose one or two more because the mindset of the team has been broken.
  16. You think he is going to announce it soon?
  17. fuck ohio state
  18. I didn't know Ostreicher from American Pie was a Longhorn fan.
  19. Does the 5-2 ever require one of the OLBs to cover a slot WR or RB out of the backfield?
  20. Hagrid and Velocicoaster do not have Express lines, but we find it is worth buying anyways because you can get on any other ride with less than 15 min wait. Standing in line for 45-60 min for those isn't so bad if that is the only line you wait in all day. Hagrid is our favorite ride, but Velocicoaster is intense. Our last trip we were able to go to all 4 Disney parks in the same day (last day of the trip, we had already been to each on previous days), but I wouldn't recommend it. You can definitely do everything at Hollywood by afternoon and then park hop to Epcot for dinner/drinking. The line for ROTR was 90-120 minutes without the Lightning pass, and yes they sell out soon after 7am. If you don't have a Lightning pass get to the park at open and go straight there, the families with little kids will go to Slinky Dog instead.
  21. So no long lines at the car parking lot entrance around park opening time? I'm remembering some of the bad experiences at sporting events. Also, if you haven't heard magical express no longer does luggage or flight check-in. I'm looking at Avis preferred at the airport.
  22. Anyone have recent experience with having a car at WDW? We are staying at animal kingdom hotel and plan to go to all 4 parks plus universal. Previous trips we used magical express for airport, bus to parks, and Uber for universal. I'm trying to decide if we can save time driving to parks vs waiting for the bus, or is it a hassle to walk from the parking lot, lines to enter/exit parking lot at peak hours, etc. Plus I hate Uber and covid safety.
