  1. James Franklin went 7-6 in his first two seasons at PSU. Let's just relax a little.
  2. As a current UTSA grad student and UT staff/fan, I can honestly say this is one of the most idiotic things I've ever heard of.
  3. You want us to get a kid dumb enough to think that was a good idea?
  4. Do you mean a game changing linebacker, or a game changing linebacker recruit? Because Malik Jefferson set the world on fire with his commitment.
  5. I also think this hurt Bijan's chances at serious Heisman consideration this year. If the D can make adjustments and take away any blocking the O-line may have been doing, it doesn't bode well for the star RB.
  6. This is quickly devolving into personal venting, but I went from being the most optimistic about the program to very quickly regressing to the mean. It feels as if the outcome was predetermined and we just got teased in the first half. I'll be happy if we can run the table, but my certainty is much lower. It feels like we can lose to almost anyone again. But the fan in me believes this is as bad as it gets this year.
  7. I'll never forget Mason Rudolph calling for a flag when he got bumped by a lineman trying to pull up (even had his hands up). He knew it was bullshit and he milked it for what it was worth.
  8. As others have mentioned, it will be lights out when the quality of the big bodies up front match the schematic advantage.
  9. Sounds like Boston got some decent weather for this October date. When I ran in 2015, it was rainy with a gusty headwind, pushed me back 6 minutes above my goal time. Met Frank Shorter in the hotel elevator after. That was cool.

    Tackling

    The part about it not being tackling and just being scheme. There were plenty of times the defender got to the carrier, but couldn't stop them. Speaking of stats - apparently we had just as many TFLs as OU did on Saturday. They only had one additional sack on us.

    Tackling

    I'm not sure if this is 100% accurate. I'd like to go back and count how many times we got to Caleb Williams or Kennedy Brooks but were unable to bring them down. Too many times I started yelling "Finally! A sack/TFL!" just for the fucker to slip or barrel his way out. We were able to get Rattler down, but Williams was a different animal.
  12. Agreed. She's probably a Tesla Model 3 gal.
  13. Jesus we had like 6 scholarship O-linemen at one point after the purge. David Ash's head fell off, but it didn't matter because it's not like they could bench anyone. It was a tough loss on Saturday, but we are light years beyond where that team was.
  14. Read the post, Chip. Moron. https://www.instagram.com/p/CU2aYZ7ltrk/
  15. I liked the hire what with all the understated assassin hoopla, but I started feeling a bit wary when people pointed out that PK is not a good recruiter. A schematic mastermind but a shitty personality. I remember Joe Wickline being described this way and he ended up being ass. Are there any reports of PK being difficult to work with that would translate to miscommunications or lapses on the field?
  16. While true that it's unlikely Sark becomes Saban, the point of using Saban as an example is to show that 6 games is not enough time to know if he's mediocre, unlucky, or just bad at his job. If we can give someone like Herman four years, I ain't giving up on Sark for losing this one.
  17. The friend of my retarded little brother is my enemy.
  18. I agree with all except we could win this game with a stout O-line. If we're going to spend all our recruiting capital on one group and only one, I hope it's O-line.
  19. This post was fucking stupid and you know it.
