  1. imo it's even more reason NOT to bring him in. With no established culture in that room bc of attrition, one guy can poison it a lot easier
  2. Agree with all this. Most good punters suck their first year and then make big jumps over the next couple. Just look at the Utah and Purdue guy's first year avg - Kern is just as good as either were. Both of those guys improved around 5 yards the next year. Dickson was the same. Considering Kern's injury and his summer arrival, no reason to think he won't improve. With that said, it makes sense to have 2 punters now that numbers don't matter, so might as well bring in a veteran while Kern develops / in case he doesn't.
  3. Who knew Hudson Card has been a mole at Purdue this whole time. What a guy! For real, hope we get that TE though. And bring the safety with him.
  4. Some mainstream reporters are saying UNC is upping their NIL commitment to $20 mil (from like 4) as part of the Belichick hire. Seems significant..
  5. Well he did run pretty well against ATM on said ankle.. But in general, Quinn's deep ball issues are probably just as limiting to playbook as his mobility. Sark isn't exactly known for dual threat QBs anyway. The sucktitude of the running game also has impacted playcalling for sure.
  6. Do your thing Nansen. Although guessing he might go pro. Dalton Johnson, AZ starting safety from Katy, also in the portal. Honorable mention all Big 12
  7. Interesting to see the different portal approaches playing out already. ATM is lining up visits left and right, especially at WR (Hudson, Concepcion, Nic Anderson, Mario Craver), while Texas isn't doing squat so far.
  8. So officially losing the entire 3-deep at DT..sheesh not a surprise but staff has their work cut out for them
  9. So what you're saying is Banks will win Lombardi, OL wins Joe Moore, and Majors wins the Campbell. Got it. You're always the optimist!
  10. Kyle Kennard won the Nagurski over Jahdae. Everyone go spam your favorite sportswriter on why Baron should win the Thorpe
  11. Do yall think playoff teams are going to be a little slower hitting the portal? Seems like all of the visits I've seen are non-playoff teams, other than the one Ga Tech WR to UGA.
  12. How about this guy? 880 yards this season and 600 two years ago at Wazzu (only played 3 games last year)
  13. Who is our 3rd OT next year? Seems like we have solid depth at iOL but a transfer OT might be needed in case of injury
  14. Jacob Manu, LB from Arizona who was 1st team All-PAC last year under Nansen, is in the portal. Looks like his stats dropped big time this year and probably not a position of focus for UT, but would be a nice one
  15. Branch or Barion Brown could be a good Silas Bolden replacement as returner and solid WR
  16. Well said. I'll add one thing that might be the most frustrating part of yesterday: Despite all the warranted teeth gnashing and "should'ves"...we fuckin outplayed Georgia. Sometimes you just get unlucky in sports. UGA had 3 fumbles that bounced right back to them or out of bounds. The INT off Bond popped up right to them, while the Barron deflection popped up right where a UGA WR was sitting to knock it away from Mukuba. And then of course...the refs. I hate blaming refs but that first half was atrocious and absolutely impacted the score. If one or two of those things bounce the other way, we're probably celebrating an SEC championship and all hailing King Sark.
  17. Wow. At least two of the holding calls were on WRs too.
  18. Sheesh that was driving me absolutely crazy. Plus the one on Stockton that flew/rolled out of bounds instead of stopping in the field. And the almost Mukuba INT off the Barron deflection but they happened to have a WR right there to knock it down.
