    Hale finished his parole, while Drumm violated the terms of his.

    They think they can drop in with a bag of cash and pick up whomever they want after the season is over.

    The problem with Warehime is that as TE coach he is supposed to be one of the best recruiters on the staff. He doesn't seem to be pulling his weight all that much there.

    That's my take as well. What is the threshold for shuttle times that allows for the fact that some guys are practicing the shuttle on top of just being naturally fluid?

    It is also nice that we can target multiple athlete-types now that we have some credible depth and don't need guys who can enroll early with the hope that they can be immediate help on the 2-deep. It is a must for most linemen, but being able to have options with guys like Whittington or Powell (dare I hope for Bru?) is icing on the cake.

    I am pretty sure they had to put Murray close to their sideline so he could dry his tears before the snap.

    I believe it was Scipio Tex who said the key number to watch is the vertical. It is the easiest assessment of pure athleticism. 40 and shuttle times can be improved through technique, giving a leg up to guys who have a specialty trainer. I think he said anything over 34" suggests elite athleticism.

    Interesting. I thought Sanders was considered 1a to Cain's 1b, but Cain has gotten more carries. (Though Sanders has 7.1 ypc to Cain's 6.3.)
  9. rickyspub
    Anyone have the season stats for Cain and Sanders?

    Yep. We need to have winning the conference regularly as part of our metric for a successful coach. Win the conference and you get a chance at the playoffs. Win the conference somewhat regularly and you can get a serious playoff look even if you don't ultimately win the Big 12.

    Then the site should just change it's name to 'Sullen Horn', right? I will be somewhat disappointed if the first botched play we have against OU while the game was still in doubt doesn't cause this thread to rocket to the top of the heap.

    At Hamm's size, a couple of those would have him under the table. #MaraschinoCherryMan

    If Phil Steele project aggy #1 preseason, I guarantee you they would put it on the wall before a game was played.
  15. rickyspub
    Meh, would have been more realistic if aggy were suing Miami for 'stealing' the turdition of the Turnover Chain from them.
  16. rickyspub
    It is aggy you stupid toxic plankton. And y'all are stuck with em. They're stuck with them as a conference-mate. Unfortunately we're stuck with them as neighbors. #advantageaggy

    If only Jimbo had been that firm with Candi.. It was likely only Jimbo's hand that was firm, which is why Candi went 'a callin'.

    No takebacks...

    ...and death shall have no dominion... Really sad weekend on the injury front.

    I am not underestimating the weirdness of college football...in fact, that is exactly what I am saying is the foundation of KSU's record over us. There is no huge statistical home field advantage for KSU. It is noise over other factors. And while Huckleberry is right that KSU got lucky that the old Big 12 scheduling had them missing us at our two peaks, Mack had a weird inability to beat KSU, even when he brought in what should have been the better team. The reality is that, since Mack, the record more or less matches the quality of the teams. Strong's two losses came against Snyder's last two 9-win teams and his win was against a Wildcat team that barely made a bowl. Last year, both teams were just barely better than .500 and we won in double overtime. Obviously, I hope our close win over what is likely another weak KSU squad, is just part of the ups and downs of quality during the season and we prove to be 'back' by winning the conference.
  21. rickyspub
    I am dismissing the idea that KSU has some sort of home field advantage. Our reasons for losing there and to KSU in general has nothing to do with location. Snyder has certainly given us fits, but then Ron Prince also had our number. I would say it was more of a Mack problem than anything as we actually have a winning record against KSU since he retired and the two losses were to KSU teams that were demonstrably better than us.
  22. rickyspub
    Can we drop with the myth that Manhattan is some sort of great home field advantage? It is basically a place where Mack Brown got scared to death. Strong never coached a team that was even decent on the road, Little Apple or otherwise. KSU was 14-9 in Big 12 play at home over the previous 5 seasons. (That is boosted by their 4-0 home mark 4 years ago.) They are 0-8 against ranked Big 12 teams at home during that stretch. I hope Herman has ended our pathetic run in that shithole and he continues to chip away at their overall favorable record against us. Fuck OU.

    Since he was doing really well for the Ravens until he got injured, I'll have to disagree on that. If he had come back this year there's no guarantee he'd have all the picks he had last season, but he'd be a better overall player and likely bumps his draft round up.. Or he gets a season ending injury and doesn't get drafted at all...
  24. rickyspub
    No, at that point the blame goes to Mack. I suppose it is possible Akina signed on to Diaz's scheme and then failed to deliver, but I am willing to bet that is not how it went down.
  25. rickyspub
    This means no aggy, right?
