If he visits Oklahoma State we need to tell his momma not to let her baby grow up to be a Cowboy.

I’m no mechanical engineer or gear head, but I got a Tesla Model 3 last fall after 10 years in a Lexus LS460 and I am loving it so far. It’s not a rolling bank vault with doors that close in a satisfying “thunk” like the Lexus and German sedans, but it is quieter than I expected and I haven’t had any build defect issues yet. The user interface learning curve wasn’t that bad, and I’ve taken it on multiple long road trips and the seats have been comfortable to me during long stretches of driving. I don’t have the full self driving package and wouldn’t recommend it. It’s nowhere near ready yet and very expensive as an add on. I haven’t had any issues with the basic autopilot function so far. Do the research for yourself, as I did, but I found the Tesla network of superchargers to be way more ubiquitous and convenient along most major highways than the non-Tesla options. I haven’t had to wait for a charger space to open up at one of the Tesla Supercharger stations yet, but that may become an issue the more of these get sold. Personally, I was starting to look around for a new car after 10 years, and $5/gallon premium gas (plus $130 oil changes and the high cost of maintenance) made me go in a different direction than I ever would have considered in the past. Electric cars in general have advanced to the point where they are just a lot of fun to drive. I’m kicking myself that I bought before the price drops and incentives went into effect, but I’m very happy with my purchase. Depending on your requirements the Model Y long range might be worth a test drive. Good luck!

Really more of an Encyclopedia Brown

Yep, and I’m surprised at the implication raised with Sanders voicing those concerns. I would think he’d be a priority to keep happy (over and above the generous lifestyle afforded to him by Burnt Endz, of course).

Mac is getting roasted in the replies

Doubtful. Deuce is only 2/3 as good as Trey.

Those spring practice reports will be here before you know it! “Joe Cook on which early enrollees turned heads in practice today”

Jimmy, I’d complain but who’d listen?

#16 is a good place for us to start.

Dear God man, get another hobby

Yeah, I’m not raging about it or anything. More a comment on how the portal landscape has evolved. Everyone (not just our $9.95’ers) thought there would be a ton of big names jumping in and switching teams, especially at WR. Turns out all that background stuff they were hearing just led to the best players getting locked up by their schools, and there were very few true upgrade options who actually entered.

These kids better get in line or Jimbo is gonna pull their Scottish ship.

Looks like we struck out on the 3 that CTJ said were possibilities. If they want to stick with their schools, not much we can do. I may be forgetting someone but the only WR who actually entered the portal that I would have loved to get was Dont’e Thornton from Oregon who went to Tennessee.

Nahlin “just askin’ questions”

Yeah, I’m sure he’s far from the only one that has happened to. It is just one of the aspects of the job that is so demeaning, having to chase after these flighty and fickle high school kids.

That is so sad

Wonder if this means Saban is bringing back Jeremy Pruitt?

Nope, that’s pretty much the takeaway

That story clears up the biggest question I had which was about which side was at fault for this breach. Thanks

That jibes with what Gerry Hamilton alluded to on the IT live cast Tuesday. He said that in the NIL/Portal era, one of the primary duties of a position coach is “keeping control of your room,” and insinuated that Marion had failed on that front last year. I’ll echo @bornandraised here as well. Appreciate the intel. It may be complete bullshit, but none of it sounds crazy to me. Thanks

Whoa

JT Daniels is his evil twin

Gotta keep it in the family

You can’t make a banner out of it, but TCU is now one of only 7 programs to win a CFP game. Is that worth being a national punchline in the short term and a trivia question for worst championship loss in the long term? YMMV The 1990 Cotton Bowl loss to Miami is the closest comp I have as a Texas fan, but in that season we beat OU, Arkansas, exorcised some Demons against UH, broke a 6 game losing streak to ATM, and won the SWC.
