No argument though I'm going to hold out for Scientologists as a little quicker on the turn...

As long as it doesn't set us up for GDGD 2.0

This one seems like a bit of a reach...

Those are not mutually exclusive goals. Just look at how much page count help EJ gave us...

I thought POY was Poona then Omenihu?

This looks like an aggy inflection point. Like a flock of starlings they all change direction suddenly and usually quite radically as well. Since "The Marine" is no longer the OL coach at aggy, they are now free and indeed encouraged to criticize his work. This resolves the doublethink of knowing their OL recruits suck but being unable to admit it even to themselves. They can now proclaim it loudly as part of the Two Minute Hate for infamous turncoat Emmanuel Goldstein Jim Turner in a cathartic release of cognitive dissonance.

Really illustrates how far off the ratings can be. Kerstetter wasn't a can't miss prospect but he and Cosmi have both been quality linemen. Shack was the lowest rated OL from his class and the biggest contributor. #1050 player nationally, #131 in Texas and #52 OG. https://247sports.com/player/zach-shackelford-35184/

That's gonna confuse the hell out of Les Miles.

Six of one half a dozen of the other. ESPN will own the rights to both the ACC and the SEC.

The closest Jimbo will get to Walk Hard is Droopy Cox. Come to think of it, that would explain a lot of Candi's behavior...

When the product is that good, anybody can sell it.

I'm glad you're up for a serious discussion. The stiffness is potentially a major issue. Check the pad level on Robinson's run blocking. His weight is very high and he basically pushes DL into the ground on a lot of plays by dropping his weight on them. It could be this is just poor technique which can be resolved through better coaching. But with other indicators out there it seems more likely he isn't very flexible and can't get much drive with his pad level down. That would be a serious liability in an interior lineman. Also the lack of ability in space is a big issue for an OG if his team pulls linemen at all or when blocking for screen passes.

And OL is THE toughest position to evaluate and the place where rating systems miss mostly often and by the biggest margins. Robinson has 3 of the classic red flags for a bust at OL: heavy feet, poor balance and inability to block smaller players in space.

I welcome any rebuttal of the points I made that you'd care to offer.

Overpaying by 10-20x for bad fashion was my first clue... /sarc

You're forgetting pets and other livestock.

I don't think they understand the concept of actual victories vs moral victories.

Slow day today so I watched half of Robinson's senior video. He's exactly the kind of guy that recruiting services overrate. He's huge and uses that size to push smaller defenders around at the LOS. His slow feet don't prevent him from mashing a HS DL lined up directly over him. It looks impressive when the guy is 100 lbs lighter and gets driven 5-6 off the ball. It's what you DON'T see that matters. There is only 1 highlight of Robinson locating and driving a LB flowing to the ball and nothing WRT 3rd level defenders. But the worst part was poor balance and technique in pass blocking. Robinson repeatedly gets his weight too far forward and falls down about half the time. Since these are highlight, they only show the ones where he took the defender down with him. But it's pretty obvious there were others not seen where he missed and left the DL a clear path to the QB. In fact if you look at 5:06 that's exactly what happens when the DE beats him inside and Robinson just grabs him and throws him down. So good: big, strong, solid HS run blocker. Bad: slow, poor balance, bad pass protector, little ability to operate in space. Looks like JAG to me.

You've crossed a line and we're going to have to ask you to turn in the first part of your handle.

Pretty stiff competition from a Bama game just a few weeks earlier. But it was the other "genius" SEC coach calling the idiot play.

Translation: We're filling up too fast on unlimited bread sticks.

The guys from that 1994 team better watch their backs...

Anus Smith is the obvious tp candidate.

The irony of Herman taking the Twelfth Man (in state) from aggy on NSD is incredibly rich.
