  1. Weird borking going on. When in light mode it looks like the attached screenshot. Every menu open and unclosable, no content, borked. Switching to dark mode makes the site normal again. Problem is, not a dark mode fan. edit: only in Firefox. Shitass Chrome isnt having any problems.
  2. This is the post I was referring to. Seems legit. And I’m not hunting for screenshots. If it wasn’t 15, it was at least 10 and the gist of what I said holds. PK prefers to play too soft and it burned us this year and last.
  3. Good point. Although, does that make us Kent State and Mizzou in this scenario?
  4. Lord knows why, that’s what’s infuriating to watch. Listen, I don’t pretend to be the one bearing privileged information here. Some other poster mentioned that there was friction between GP and PK regarding the degree to which our defense should play press man vs softer coverages, among other things, and it jibed with the eye test this year. On big games, games where GP would theoretically be given time to prep and game plan for the big stage, such as Bama, OU, TCU, and maybe another that I’m forgetting, our defense looked like a different animal. Our corners were up in the other team’s shit, players were flying around making tackles like they knew what was coming, and in general the defense played more dialed in. On games that maybe we didn’t have circled on the calendar, games that GP was theoretically not as involved in while he prepped for the big ones, our defense looked like PK’s ‘21 unit. Soft coverage, general cluelessness, and giving up big play after big play in crucial moments. Not saying it’s the gospel truth, and it’s entirely possible that PK is the one responsible, but I’m going to need to see him do it without the defensive guru hire backing him up before I lean toward 2022 being more indicative of PK than 2021.
  5. That’s all on the table, for sure. Still, the 9th or 10th time I see our CB line up 15 yards away from the guy he’s “covering” on 3rd and 4 for an easy conversion, I’m going to lose my shit.
  6. I’ll buy that to an extent. Just going on what we saw in 2021 vs 2022, combined with the chatter from other posters who seem more plugged in, it seems like GP had a mitigating effect on some of PK’s more passive tendencies. The concern is that without GP around, maybe PK reverts to his preferred passive scheme without a bug in his ear about it and our defense looks like 2021 all over again. The hope is that you’re right and Patterson had little effect on the 2022 turnaround.
  7. Who’s trolling, dipshit? I said a pretty normal, surlyish thing about PK, and you came out of left field with some BS. I’m not looking up your “absurd” posting history, as I am completely uninterested. If busting in with random insults is your schtick, then by all means you do you, but don’t be surprised if others don’t take kindly to it.
  8. And you can fuck right off, Mrs. Kwiatkowski. It doesn’t look like your son will have his handler this year, so he better get his shit together. Get bent.
  9. Maybe Petrino found out he's not into motorcycles.
  10. I guess I'm just referring to the other posts indicating that Patterson's fingerprints were on our more successful defensive outings. My example was hyperbole, but supposedly something like that conversation (minus the nipple rubbing) occurred during planning and practicing.
  11. Just catching up on the thread, and I don't give as much of a shit about the WR coach as I do Patterson potentially leaving. Going full PK on our defense again will be traumatic and disastrous. If the smoke about the Patterson/PK dynamic is true (which I choose to believe) then we're proper fucked on defense next year without somebody in PK's ear saying "Hey dumbfuck! Make sure someone is covering their WRs within 15 fucking yards or they're just going to easily march up and down the field on us while you rub your nipples!" My liver can't handle any more of that shit.
  12. Not arguing, but there was a lot of chatter about him changing his mind and deciding to come back, then the bowl game happened and he seems to be gone.
  13. Legitimate-ish question/observation: Is it possible that some of the cold feet for Whittington has to do with the complete lack of accountability in the WR room, the bowl game target distribution, and the knowledge that he will never receive the kind of reception volume that more ...diva type receivers... receive, thus making returning kind of pointless?
  14. Brooks on bench and Worthy dropping balls. Not promising.
  15. Totally thought I was going to hear something else when I pressed play.
  16. Just referencing the recruitment. My bad.
  17. A gentleman's agreement, if you will.
  18. Obviously you're not a golfer.
