  1. Some dudes just hate playing school that much.
  2. Maybe the coaches are receiving $9.95 kickbacks to keep him around. lol
  3. If Lee and family are doing their homework on the offensive line coaching pedigree of who they at least know will be on the coaching staff when he arrives to campus, where does that put us if he decides he wants out from Michigan? Firing Flood could possibly just lead him choose Alabama for the familiarity if nothing else.
  4. I wonder if we let Max Wright loose thinking this would go public soon enough to scoop up Lee before signing day? Also, are we satisfied with DB recruiting or do we circle back on Jamarion Vincent as well?
  5. DL: We’ve been amazing at high pressure short yardage stops in recent years. A big part of that is the ability to trot a fresh behemoth of 0/1 tech out there for one play of all out maniacal effort. Sounds like Sark will be shopping for another one of them. RB: Just make the one year investment. Please. It will be worth it. WR: See RB. LB/DB: If it’s a good fit, then why not. IOL: Don’t let perfect get in the way of good. There will be acceptable options looking to play up.
  6. 0:19-0:23 Caldwell and Lacey appear to be functionally the same height? 🧐
  7. Texas must anticipate this to be Florida-like even if it is not and look at the Ole Miss game for guidance on how not to start slow and allow them to stay in the game. Our last non-rivalry regular season night game was Iowa State in 2023. We won by 10 and this feels comparable. Expect fuckery and for Kentucky to punch above their weight. Any word on Calzada’s status?
  8. I beg to differ. We never punted after our second possession yesterday. Finishing drives in the endzone will come, but I think we finally found a template.
  9. Arch produced basically all of our offensive output yesterday. Everything else around him was absolute shit. He was forced into hero ball and it almost paid off. There’s no doubt that his preference is to throw deep, but that’s also what was needed of him as the 2nd half progressed. I don’t think Sark called for much short-intermediate passing. He still needs to work on getting to the check down faster, but I’ll need to see replays that show that was even there before making any declarations of fact. As for his accuracy, I really don’t recall many if any bad misses yesterday when he wasn’t stepping into or following through into a large human body. He can work on finding space in the pocket to avoid that, but I’m not sure how available real estate was yeaterday. Decision making and running an effective offense with audibles may still be where he ultimately falls short, but let’s give it time. Penalties put us in bad situations far too often yesterday to run a normal offense. Much of this discourse reminds me of when Sam Ehlinger was a meathead cave man who would never get better. Maybe Arch won’t pan out besides every possible advantage that could be given to a QB, but I’m not convinced that will be the case.
  10. lol Sure, pass me a glass and make it a double. I guess I underestimated how seriously we take Off-season Championships around here.
  11. I’m fine. Couldn’t be more excited for the season. I just want to earn the ranking and don’t like preseason polls in general.
  12. I should be thrilled to be #1, but it feels empty not having played a game yet. It also feels like a “build them up just to beat them down” type of situation. Our week one game vs tOSU is a win-win for the media, but I suspect they’d love to write about the reigning champs maintaining dominance at home versus the top contender for their crown.
  13. Just randomly saw that Reid got the ol’ surprise fall camp scholarship at his new school, the University of South Dakota, today. Good for him. He should do well there.
