  1. Honestly, my only disappointment is we didn't get to see him and Vasek together. Burke has been a really, really good player for us. Vasek is dead, I guess. I would take Burke every single recruiting class if I could, and yeah, it sucks he doesn't have a 5th year.
  2. I believe Endries was a walk-on like Taaffe who earned a scholarship. So 2/4 were former walk-on's, while our OG earned all American status, too. I'll take those kind of crackers all day long. Burke being a three-star is fucking comical. Go look at his HS tape and at no point does he look the part of "three-star." If anything, he looked like a four-star with potential, which he lived up to.
  3. Hey, at least he's 40; a grown man! He's already on the right track.
  4. Correct. He doesn't seem to do the little things to be great, like using the JUGS machine after practice or on off-days. He's a weak blocker, but he has improved his route running. But yeah, like you said—he doesn't seem to "get it." He's an athlete playing the position, much like Terrell Pryor. He can be great, but he doesn't put in the extra work. I'm not sure how he believes he will be in the NFL long-term if you don't do the work 365 days a year. It's frustrating because I can see he has the tools and he's gifted, but he doesn't have the same mindset of Jeremiah Smith/Ryan Williams/Bryant Wesco, Jr, etc.
  5. I mean, he did get better numbers-wise. He added 300 more yards and 5 more TD's to get to 50/770/7 15.4 ypc for the season so far, and last year he went 29/472/2 16.3 ypc. His ypc went down a yard, but otherwise he's on the right trajectory. Next season (hopefully) he can learn to catch a pass consistently and win 50/50 balls, or else Sark will have to let Lockett give it a try. I doubt that happens since he lacks a spine, but here we are. Bobby loves hyperbole and keeps yammering that he's like Roy Williams athletically, which is fucking retarded. He's a great athlete, but he's not even in the same stratosphere as Roy.
  6. So he's basically Alfred Collins. I'm good with that.
  7. Doesn't even have a rating, but he's listed at 6-7 245 for a DL. I imagine he's a project. https://247sports.com/player/finn-walker-46159175/
  8. This would be amazing af. Maybe lands us Durham, too. I would take Berry and Durham over anyone we currently have, except for Wisner. Hire the Mizzou OL coach and Frank Wilson and we're rolling. But it won't happen because Sark is too much of a pussy to fire anyone. He doesn't lack self-awareness, he lacks a spine.
  9. They're just pathological liars that have to be "THE BEST!!!!" and anything remotely UT is "trashy, they spit on kids and punch pregnant women" type shit, rather than just saying they hate the stadium because it's University of Texas. Nope, they have to lie, embellish everything to the extreme, and lift their self-worth by telling the world how awful we are.
  10. God that is fucking embarrassing. Second-hand embarrassment is the worst. Oof.
  11. We'll still land 3-4 five-star guys. I would like to see us go after Callis-Williams, but I think aggies lead for him, and Chad Scott seems unimpressive so far.
  12. Akina needs to be replaced. This isn't 2008 anymore, and he made Taaffe take a step back, Jelani was even more inconsistent, and our secondary was pure shit. If Akina is the best Sark can do, then I don't know what to say. I don't know shit about fuck regarding Orphey, but the DB's were also inconsistent, but he's a younger guy, much like Baker was last year when we all went "who?" I would cut Filsaime some slack. It was his first real game experience, and he didn't get any favor from Akina's old ass. JJ-R, I have no idea if he's good or not, and Derek Williams also looked lost...and slow, but that is because of his ACL, I believe.
  13. This is very true. Unless you're an almost sure star level, like Kyle Hamilton, Derwin James, or Xavier Mckinnney, your best hope is rd 2-4. Edit: I should add Caleb Downs. Almost surely a star at the next level.
  14. Well we had those in SJSU, SHSU, and UTEP, and the only one we looked competent in was SHSU, and they're 1-7 and last in C-USA. Had Flood/Sark actually fucking paid attention, we wouldn't have had Stroh out there being aloof and a weak ass who got punished by even lower-level players, because he's a lower-level player himself.
  15. I understand both sides of the argument, and whether or not this team is "good enough" to win is irrelevant. What's relevant is we will have no idea if we don't get the chance. I want that chance. Will we get it? Highly unlikely. But get to 10 wins and get more practices in for every player coming back next season. But make no mistake, this team, much like in college basketball, could go on a run if we made the playoffs. Disregard the OT with UK and MSU, those are also irrelevant because we beat them. The "how" doesn't matter, at all. Look at the Final Four in basketball. Teams that play in wtf conferences make runs all the time and have beaten blue bloods. It's not like we don't have the talent to do the same in football. We're closer in talent to Georgia, Ohio State, and Bama than we are to aggy, if we go by HS recruiting, and even portal adds. The only wtf portal add I can remember is Velton Gardner from SMU, and he lost an eye in like game 2 or 3 last season and we still make the semis without a RB room. All we had was Wisner. So if we can make the semis with just one RB, whose to say we can't this year? But, at the end of the day the loss column is what matters. They aren't going to throw out the Ohio State game just because we're the only team to play them close and out gain them in yards. A loss is a loss, and we followed that up by getting tagged by UF, and then needed a body bag after Georgia. If you're a supposed "QB guru, offensive mastermind" and you have lost to Mike Bobo three times in a row, then we have a coaching problem. At no point should Sark look fucking lost after landing top 4 recruiting classes the last 4 years, and the #1 class last year. Zero. Zilch. Ineptitude is what is keeping us out. That's on Sark.
  16. Ah man, that sucks. I personally think he needs another year, and he was just coming on at the right time, too. That sucks. I guess we do need a portal TE. Damn. I love that position.
  17. We don't need a portal TE, we get Endries back, and Washington, Winston, Townsend. If we get a portal TE, something has gone terribly wrong. We also have that kid we flipped from Minnesota coming in, who I think was a great pick up. I like Midwestern TE's.
  18. This is the best way. If guys are hurt, play someone else. That's why you recruit elite players, so they can get playing time when someone in front of them gets injured or plays like shit in a game.
  19. Exactly. No one except us. We also have the #6 SOS while beating two CFP teams. If they want to keep holding on to the UF loss, then that's fucking dipshittery. That was week 5, we're in week 12. The loss was brutal, but who gives a shit? Most teams hadn't found their footing at that point yet. That's what pisses me off. That, and the "third" loss, which shouldn't count since 1. It wasn't a conference game, and 2. It was the most watched game of the season, I believe. They made money off of it. If they can't see we lost by 1 TD but we also had 200 more yards in their home, I don't know what to say. Why even bother scheduling teams like that if we get punished? Yeah, I love them, but I love wanting to have a chance to see my team win a NC more. So if dropping a marquee game like that needs to happen for us to get in the CFP, so be it. Schedule Rice. I'm fine playing whomever. It's not like you and I are making money off the marquee games, so fuck it.
  20. LSU and Tennessee don't just suck, their teams are barely functioning, at best. They're both horrid. Heupel is shit. LSU is below microbial shit. That entire program needs to be gutted just to get back to looking like they have neurons firing.
  21. Yep. Fucking LSU runs their mouth as much as aggy and they couldn't even throw a forward pass. Dipshits. Aggy ran their mouths, got their teeth kicked in, played a fucking dog shit schedule, AND were gifted the ND "win.” I can't wrap my head around why they're ahead of us in conference—by 'they,' I mean ou. Aggy, sure. 1 loss in conference, but their SOS in conference is #13. OU and Vandy? FOH. We beat ou by 3 scores on a neutral field. Fuck this committee if they don't see why we should be in. I guess teams don't get better later in the season. The argument can be made because we lost to Florida, but that was week 5, we're in week 12. We lost to Georgia in their place that they were favored in. I guess beating ou on a neutral field is just meaningless. Same with fucking up an undefeated team by double digits in the last game of the regular season is just "it happens." What a joke.
  22. This is worst part. Although, I think only two of the three will make it. Vandy, imo, isn't making it.
  23. Oh, for sure. I don't care who they beat. Arky just sucks, this team is full of morons from coaches to players to the AD. A clown show of cosmic proportion.
