  1. I still contend the AD did the wrong thing firing him. That was a situation that called for a suspension for the season, and rehabilitation with anger management training during suspension. Dude has Ole Miss at 15-3 losing to a top 15 team in OT by 3 already. RT can't stay within 20 of Florida. 2 years later I'm saying the same things I said then. Terrible decision. The program is in shambles and it's their own fault.
  2. This absolutely does. The combination of a QB who is immobile and can't throw deep limits the offense in ways you have no idea about. One of them is personnel. If the QB can't account for one of the ends in the running game you have to have a blocking TE in the game to even the numbers. You can go 12 personnel but then you're taking off a receiver for a receiving TE which doesn't make much sense unless you can catch the other team in a heavy set with 3 LBs. Almost never happens if they know your receiving TE can't block well. They'll match personnel with him with a corner or safety.
  3. He took a lot more money up front with the NIL package that brought him here in the first place. Was he signing on for new NIL elsewhere once the season started? If so, maybe he saw this place and didn't want to be associated with you dumb cunts
  4. It was at the beginning of the season? Maybe he didn't feel right to take your money if he pretty much knew at that point he wasn't going to play much. I think the fact he stayed out of the portal through the entire playoff run shows he's a team guy and has at least some level of integrity. He could have just told you, but probably didn't want to be telling people he didn't think he'd play.
  5. I don't think it means he's horrible. I just think he was a very bad fit for this team with a completely immobile QB. It's very difficult to play TEs who can't block when you have an immobile QB. You just can't run out of that set worth a shit as the defense will be able to overwhelm you up front with only 6 in a lot of cases. The QB's threat of mobility needs to be able to take one end out of the equation in the run game in order to allow the offense to run with a TE that can't block. He had a solid season in '23 for Alabama with a running QB who could throw deep accurately. He needs to go to a team with a mobile QB for next season. Ewers was just a terrible QB pairing for Niblack
  6. I don't think it was, but I'm pretty sure he didn't see any snaps the next game against OU. Don't remember if he got any against Georgia or anyone after until he got booted. Now, it makes a lot of sense why Sark went after so many receivers in the portal last year. I'm thinking he knew this dude was hanging by a thread and not dedicated, and he couldn't count on him.

    They've gotten it worked out. Especially now that players are making hundreds of thousands of $$$. At most schools the players take mostly online classes and they take them with "tutors"
  8. Good win. Always want to beat okie
  9. Things republican politicans would know if they were segregating themselves and stewing on their own racism
  10. That's fine, but do it behind the scenes like everyone else. You think every other starter hasn't been doing that too? Don't go on social media crying about being underpaid.
  11. Remember in 2022 when Sark would have Quinn throwing deep like crazy because he was still thinking he had a Mac Jones/Tua Type of arm? Then by the end of the season he dialed it way back because Quinn couldn't hit the side of a barn. I'm sure he, like everyone here, was thinking he just needs experience to develop that part of his game. The problem was he never developed it. As long as Arch keeps developing, and there's no reason to think he won't, it'll be a huge difference. If Sark can keep double digit NFL draft pick types of teams around Arch like he did Quinn the team will level up. Would trade Muhammad for Downs in an instant. One of Wardell Mack or Kobe Black will be ready to step up, and I have faith we can tamper another corner into the portal in the spring. Muhammad's transactional nature about everything is grating on the nerves. He's been paid very well for what he brings but acts like he's being ripped off. We'd know by any transfer portal guys by Friday night at the latest
  12. Those of us with degrees from this university, who aren't complete fucking morons, care more about preserving the university's integrity as much as possible over an offensive line. Especially in this case when both of those things aren't mutually exclusive.
  13. Eh, go fuck your own face. There's no such thing as "just taking Elon's money". We take his money and we have to let him have a piece of the action, and as far as I know he doesn't give a shit about sports. He'll want to ruin our entire university. He's not the charitable type unless he gets something in return. The only "charity" he gives to is his own foundation, which is nothing more than a shell company that he controls to covertly further his own business interests while dodging taxes.
  14. And at least 9 of the kids and all 5 of the women hate him. The guy is the epitome of an insufferable asshole corporate welfare queen who lies incessantly about everything, and if for some reason we took his money he'd want to run the entire university into the ground until he got bored with it.
  15. Johntay about to go pro in something that could land him 10-20. What a fall. NDs press man completely shut out the child rapist's entire WR corps. Zero catches. Not sure we need a guy with speed who can't beat press man. Unless he was beating it but the QB was pulling a Ewers. Which is possible, I haven't watched that tape
  16. I'm going to need more than a couple of seasons with a mediocre QB who can't throw an accurate deep ball before saying that. Sark's play calling is one of his selling points to QBs and skill guys. I'm also not taking the word of a couple of opponents. Just because you guessed right on the 1 out of 4 or 5 plays that go out of that formation doesn't mean you knew it was going to be that play. That would be the case for any offensive coordinator we hired, and in this case when the QB can only get it there accurately up to 20 yds the options are very limited. Also, no one is in position to tell Sark anything right now. Piss him off with some dumb shit and he'll have an NFL job by the Super Bowl
  17. That was bullshit anyway. They asked about his dad and he said his dad was a pimp. Then they asked about his mom and he said his mom worked for his dad. So of course the next question would be that. I didn't realize Blue's dad is the director of scouting for an NFL team. If that's the case, then yeah he'll get drafted. In reality it'll all come down to the combine and his 40 time. If he runs in the 4.3s some team will take a flyer on him most likely. His production numbers were solid (outside of fumbles) with 14 TDs, but other than the fumbles the biggest thing going against him is he doesn't play special teams. RBs drafted in the later rounds have to play special teams. He needs to work on kick returns. With Blue leaving I think they will at least be looking to find a guy in the spring or if there's a PSU/OSU/ND guy they like that can be coaxed. Unless the staff really like where either Simon or Stewart are right now. Gerry said Ricky Simon should hit the '25 season at about 5'10" and 220 lbs. Baxter's knee injury was a big unusual for a running back, but that game at OSU will be 13 months since the injury. He'll be ready to go barring setback. So Baxter, Wisner, and Gibson is a pretty strong RB room if all goes well. Could be rough to sell a portal guy on competing in that room.
  18. These brainwashed feckless cunts will do absolutely nothing and like it. Their stupidity and ignorance turned them into nothing more than useless pawns to be exploited then thrown away
  19. The only way this team can win is if Johnson goes off, and today Johnson went off... And they still lost Johnson went for 26 on 11 of 17 shooting and 50 percent from 3. The entire bench scored... 9 points. RT gotta go.
  20. Tied with Tenn in the 2nd half right now. Let's see if they pull it out
  21. Herbert has the choke gene prominent in his DNA
  22. The problem was the OL was incongruent. The left tackle was all world at everything. Then LG and C were finesse stretch zone blockers who couldn't drive forward in the run against most teams. Then the RG and RT were power blocking maulers who struggled in the zone reach blocks. It's why I don't understand not having a separate package for short yardage with Hutson at center and Neto at LG. Get a full line of power blocking maulers to go to in those situations. That should have been obvious this time last year since the 2023 team had the same issue. That said, I don't know if they tried but just didn't feel it worked well. Would love to know if they ever tried.
