  1. Bobby said on the livestream last night that Lincoln had already thrown himself in as a candidate for the aggy job. Rod Babers suggested that if Lincoln wanted to leave USC he should go collect millions from the NFL first, and then return to take whatever college job he wanted when/if he failed in the league.
  2. They have one win against a team with a winning record (Kansas).
  3. Per Justin Wells (IT): Kobe Black announcing on Nov 29th. https://247sports.com/player/kobe-black-46097514/
  4. I think he’s very good at hiring staff and knows exactly the type of players he wants/needs to play his type of football.
  5. I especially like the part about Looch receiving calls from all over the country from very important people expressing how proud they were after Elijah Robinson’s first press conference.
  6. I have a hard time seeing Traylor take the job if the coaching staff is dictated to him and I can’t believe Elko would keep Durkin on if he takes the job. So really I don’t see any way Durkin stays. But maybe I’ll be pleasantly surprised.
  7. Justin Wells had an update on prospects and flips - this blurb is regarding Kobe Black: Are portal candidates considered 'prospects'?.
  8. Yes - Nahlin had an article today saying that a well known draft guy he talked with (guessing Matt Miller) has a Day 2 grade on Murphy. If Murphy is rated that high I’d have a tough time seeing him come back. 3rd round is still good money - including a million dollar signing bonus.
  9. I assume with an Elko hire the majority of the defensive staff will be kept - that should help keep some of the defensive recruits. Interested to see what will happen with the offensive side of the ball. Do they go for someone like Broyles award nominee and Texas native Will Stein? I'd imagine most of the offensive guys are familiar or were recruited by him. What other 'big' offensive recruiter names are out there this cycle?
  10. The timing was they had to do this before Jimbo did a Les Miles and forced them to keep him at least into next season. But I agree they were probably operating under the assumption they can hire Elko or Traylor at any point when they run out of wish list candidates.
  11. CB grades for Texas & Oklahoma St this season from PFF:
  12. I don't think there was any doubt about that. This whole process is happening because Texas is coming into the SEC with all of the momentum - and aggy is going to try to do everything in there power to stop it. The worst thing that could happen, in their minds, is to lose that game in Kyle Field next year.
  13. Quinn's biggest improvement from 2022 to 2023 is in the intermediate (10-20 yards). He went from a 50% passer in the intermediate in 2022 to over seventy (71.4%) in 2023. Deep balls he has almost the same completion percentage (30.8 completion in 2022 - 33.3 in 2023). He's actually completing fewer "Big Time Throws" (what PFF calls 'NFL type' throws deeper and into tighter windows)in 2023. 8 this season compared to 19 last year. Part of that is Quinn taking fewer risks and completing the check-downs. 2023: 2022:
  14. Regarding DeBoer - saw someone on twitter pointing out what a shitty recruiter he is even within the state of Washington. The Huskies don't have any commits from the top 25 in the state of Washington.
  15. I would not be surprised to see a Sark type hire - either an OC/DC who has previous HC experience who is available for 5-6 million per, or a younger G5 coach who would be looking for that P5 promotion. I think you can basically eliminate almost all of the current P5 coaches as candidates (other than maybe Elko).
  16. Corum had his ACL surgery on Dec 1 2022 and had 10 carries in Michigan's first game this season. Fondren is right - looks like it was an MCL:
  17. If Ewers comes back Texas is going to be portal destination of choice for every WR looking for a change. add in that Brooks will be back and another year with this OL (sans Christian Jones) - and that’s a really fucking good offense.
  18. I'm an idiot - I wasn't even thinking Arkansas, but that makes more sense. That job will surely be available.
  19. Inside Texas said last night that Traylor was talking to an SEC team - I assumed it was Miss St but this sort of confirms it. They weren't going to get Miles'd.

  21. From LSU 247 regarding Drelon Miller:
