    Green Bay Packers coach. They thought he’d be free by now. ☹️

    They sure are going deep on WR and DB in the portal.

    As TwiceHorn indicates, you may not be able to do anything you want due to adverse possession. When you contact title, I bet they punt it back to you, saying it was already identified in that title commitment and you chose to buy it anyway.

    Dan Quinn spent all his time interviewing instead of preparing.

    Every post you’ve ever made anywhere on the internet in your entire life has been wrong.

    Whenever someone says a good old movie is over-rated, it should be considered in the context of when it was released. Countless people have said Jaws sucks, Casablanca sucks, Star Wars sucks, etc. What they usually fail to realize is that in a world of ever-increasing dopamine, and more sophisticated and improved movie making, most good old movies suck by comparison. In its time, a movie might have been great, but not be so great today. Blues Brothers is an interesting debate because when it came out it was great, for many different reasons. Today, the movie is ok but not great because humor has evolved. But the music is still great.

    Sooo, Aggie has now learned that both Fisch and Deboers were mobile. Tee heee …

    I really like Sark so far, and this year was great. I’ve always been relatively positive on him. Things seem like they are headed in the right direction. But this thread is getting a little too effusive in its praise for Sark a little too early. How about we see two good seasons in a row before declaring an all-out man crush. You’re jinxing him.

    Yes there would have been a lot of heat, but if the world has shown us anything in the last 7 years it’s that everyone has the attention span of a gnat. Players, fans, coaches, alumni, etc. all would have lost interest in crucifying the administration for going a different direction with the coaching hire. And as someone else said, these people are paid a ton of money to make good decisions.

    I know everyone said we had to give Terry a shot given his performance last year, but my thoughts were and are that you make the tough decisions you know you need to make and take the heat. Texas chose to take the easy route on the decision and it could cause problems for years as they enter the SEC.

    Unless he followed that statement up with “In that it can’t be that firm because I might change my mind at any moment”

    No props for the Kris Boyd special teams tackle? Great to see him still NFL.

    Andrew Beck

    Still in the NFL. Great story. Showed a few flashes at Texas, but wouldn’t have predicted him to be a five year NFL veteran.

    Sexton has a long list of top coaches. He has a stranglehold on coaches salaries.

    I’ve gone from disliking him several years ago because I thought he was an entitled little prick, to really enjoying his trolling on Twitter.

    It’s funny to see DeBoar not even sniff the Aggie job and then leap at Bama.

    Israel

    Dbeasy replied to SmokeyBear1861's topic in Cloak Room

    I have a question for the posters in this thread. I noticed that NBC News every single day runs an extended segment on the evening news covering an Israeli tragedy human interest story related to the war. There is a story every single day. And it’s always extended segment. And it never is focused on Palestinians. And just to light the match, the President of NBC News is Jewish. Is this something to be concerned about, or is it appropriate/fair? I realize there are hostages that never should be forgotten, so maybe that’s justification for it.

    I don’t think so. It’s a public event.

    Well it's a story about love, deception, greed, lust and...unbridled enthusiasm.

    Can someone clarify a portal rule? It was my understanding that if a player enters the portal, the school can decline them coming back. Is that true? Obviously that wouldn’t be the situation with Bond. Alabama would definitely want him back, but just thinking about some other players on the roster.

    Someone remind who the recruit was that Texas just about had sewn up but Orgeron pestered him so much, including riding to the airport with him, that he flipped to LSU. Was it Chassion? I was so ticked but at the same time was laughing at how over the top Orgeron was with that recruit. He was relentless.

    But have you seen who those 125 are? They might be really important.
  24. Dbeasy
    That’s exactly what someone who’s terrified would say.

    When I think about a top 5 job, it would include these factors: 1. Financial power - this swamps every other factor 2. Brand - viewership, awareness, advertising value, historical relevance, etc 3. Support and Commitment - from fans, administration, state and local government, or other important entity, in an attractive environment 4. Location - strengthens all other factors 5. University Attractiveness - as measured by many different things, from vibe to academics to campus to conference, etc
