  1. IU losing to a coach-less Penn State is not going to do them any favors. Yikes.
  2. Both tech and BYU will get taken to the woodshed by any team with a pulse if they make the playoffs. They do not look ready for prime time this year. Maybe in 2 years after tech gets their highly rated recruits in, but right now they look just pedestrian. Could that be a result of BYU? Possibly. But both teams look a tier below They need to beef up their OL, their DL/Edge looks slow and small, but I do like their LB who made that INT, and their DBs also look tall, but slow. I like their RBs, Dickey (1 TD) and J'Koby Williams, even if he hasn't scored, they can pound the rock and get you yards. They have like 1-2 WR's (that I've seen from this game, and I haven't watched them other than this time) who would start for a team in the top 15. Once they get their upgrades it will make a big difference. Miach Hudson needs to drop down to G5, he's irrelevant. BYU is highly overrated on offense. Again, this is just from this game, not a season. This is the first time I have watched them.
  3. So you're suggesting we behead Loreal? Football is serious, I get it. I'm down. It would be better than stabbing my neighbor and his entire family or throw petrol into a homeless camp and set it on fire just to see how many notice they're on fire or if their Stevens-Johnson syndrome is on full alert.
  4. I have no idea why my phone keeps autocorrecting to 'Saek' other than it knows as soon as I touch it to just go ahead and misspell out of anger just to get my point across.
  5. Gotcha. Makes sense. This place can wear you down at times, and then you find other stuff more interesting. I don't blame him. Hope he's doing well.
  6. Weren't you told not to speak to me unless spoken to? How are words so hard to comprehend for your sloped skull and vacuous space where gray matter should exist?
  7. Very much so. I can only find 5 that look like they would be worth a shit - 2027: Elijah Haven - committed to Bama, Colton Nussmier, Gunner Rivers, Jayce Johnson - committed to aggy, Brady Edmunds - committed to Ohio State, and somehow we'll take some JAG 2028: Top early, imo. Recruiting fluctuates so much, it's hard to take them seriously.
  8. I'm with you. I'm not Tok high on him, but at the same time he's shown from HS he can command an offense. Regardless, he'll probably transfer out, too.
  9. Whomever Saek chooses, because we all know if won't be anyone in the top-150
  10. Where is @THUJONE? He's a lawyer so we know he's not busy.
  11. Being ignored means nothing to me. Those are just pussies who can't handle someone on a messaboard typing out words. They're soft. The JAG I'm speaking about is Owens if he comes back. I have faith in Lacey, but Bell needs time to adjust to the game, and then after him it's....another frosh and a transfer. We shouldn't even be in this position to begin with. We should be recruiting high-level QBs and let them sort it out. If an injury occurs at least we have someone (hopefully) capable to take over for a few games.
  12. Sure, some will leave and some will stay. That's how competitions works. Bell isn't a sure thing, and neither is Lacey, so again, we're back to square one. We need actual high-level guys to come in and take the job. Lacey was an unranked four-star, but people are just pencilng him like he's just going to step in and light the world on fire. This is exactly why Sark needs rk find dudes who want competition. If they don't they're pussies. We can't keep going every other year with a new QB. It's just not sustainable for winning. Why is this difficult to grasp?
  13. One will be gone after the season, and then we have a JAG in our '27 class. Do. you still think that's fine? We'll have.Lacey (who wasn't highly ranked), Bell, and then some JAG. Are we still good then? If by some miracle we'll have Owens, another low four-star who hasn't done anything, so we're back to square one.
  14. Of course try will leave. That's not the point. The point is year after year these programs, regardless of who they have are are still going after elite QBs, because at some point one is going to hit, rather than banking on one you picked out.
  15. None. Go take a look at their QB rosters and even look at ours. It's beyond grim.
  16. That's called negligence and poor roster management. We have an upperclassmam five-star, followed by a low four-star, then a five-star frosh. That's not how you win championships. That's poor recruiting, followed by dumbassary and pandering instead of going out to get the best players to battle it out. Ohio State Bama Georgia Have all done this and it works. What we're doing is pure stupidity. Sark could be battling Bama for Elijah Haven, Gunner Rivers, Colton Nussmier, and if Kavien Bryant wanted in, sure, fine. I don't personally care for him as a QB, but if he switched to us, cool. Instead it will be Arch, Lacey, and Bell, followed by some transfer. That's not how you win the NC just take a look at Ohio State - two five stars followed by two top-50 guys Bama - two five stars followed by a top-75 recruit Georgia's QB rooms.- they'll have a five-star followed by a top-50, top-75, top -100, and a top-150 + top-200. We have an upperclassmam five-star., unranked four-star, and a frosh five-. Then a transfer. That's not NC winning QB recruiting.
  17. IMG has a dawg at QB. Not sure of his grade but he's the real deal. That's who Sarkisian need to focus in men that kid is elite.
  18. Sarkisian , outside of the OL issues, needs a do man up and God find players who don't care about competition. Fight to the death for all I care, but hs philosophy into working. Every year he should be emulating Ohio State and getting as much QB talent as he can.
  19. To show the stark contrast between the winners and the bridesmaids, we will go with three schools who consistently win- Ohio State, Bama, and Georgia. I really don't understand why, if it's possible, Sark doesn't go get a high four-star or even five-star QB each class, rather than skip one or two years and land a low four-star or high three-star? If a kid is willing to come, take him. Not all these QBs are pirmadonnas and will fight for their chance. Surely Sarkisian is smart enough to understand this? This is how successful programs operate, see below- Ohio State: I will note that Urban Meyer did recruit Joe Burrow, but let's jut start with Ryan Day taking over as HC - 2018: Matthew Baldwin (#10 QB low four-star, now at TCU- mulligan inherited from Meyer): 2019: Justin Fields (#2 QB five-star #2 overall/#1 QB transfer five-star #1 overall); 2020: CJ Stroud (#2 QB five-star #29 overall), Jack Miller (three-star); 2021: Quinn Ewers (#1 QB five-star #1 overall), Kyle McCord (#8 QB high four-star #49 overall); 2022: Devin Brown (#5 QB high four-star #44 overall); 2023: Lincoln Kienholz (#11 QB high four-star #138 overall); 2024: Julian Sayin (#3 QB five-star transfer #20 overall/#1 QB transfer), Will Howard (transfer), Air Noland (#7 QB high four-star #61 overall); 2025: Tavien St. Clair (#3 QB five-star #4 overall); 2026: Luke Fahey (#31 QB TBD final ranking), 2027: Brady Edmunds (#11 QB high four-star #142 overall. Subject to change). Weather they transfer or not is irrelevant, it's the fact Sarkisian didn't just take a warm body to be nothing more than roster-filler. This is the program we should be modeling ourselves after. Since 2019- 2019: Justin Fields five-star #2 overall 2020: CJ Stroud five-star #29 overall 2021: Quinn Ewers five-star #1 overall; Kyle McCord high four-star #49 top-50 2022: Devin Brown high four-star #44 overall top-50 2023: Lincoln Kienholz high four-star #138 top-150 2024: Julian Sayin five-star #20 overall (#1 transfer); Will Howard; Air Noland four-star #61 overall top-75 2025: Tavier St. Clair #3 QB five-star #4 overall No issues recruiting top-50 QBs each year, transfer or not. Day wants to win, not pander. I hate that kiddie peddler as much as anyone else, but the motherfucker can recruit and knows to stock up on elite QB/WR talent and let them eat other into their spots. They currently havs 3 QBs on scholarship, with two being five-star and one high four star. Tex/Sark: 2021: Charles Wright (#53 QB - Sark gets a mulligan here because these were not his recruits outside of Xavier Worthy) 2022: Quinn Ewers (#1 five-star QB transfer, came home after Herman got the pink slip because he's a Longhorn for life and always has been) Maalik Murphy (#9 QB four-star #197) 7th rd. Yes I am thankful for all he did, good of bad , he got us back to back semis but more depth across the the entire offense, eoud it kill him to play freshman? I feel like I'm back in time with the bleed for the program instead of playing the three mst talented 2023: Arch Manning (#1 QB five-star #1 overall) grew up at Longhorn fan, just wanted to add that because it's pretty fucking cool. First year starting. Lots of ups and downs. A work in progress. ❌ 2024: Trey Owens #16 QB low four-star Not Ranked, but somewhere in the 300s) transfer candidate ❓🤞 2025: KJ Lacey #19 QB low four-star Not Ranked, but somewhere in the 300s) seems like a baller, hoping for the best; Matthew Caldwell transfer. Gone after this season. 2026: Dia Bell #3 QB five-star #10 overall Texas: has three true recruited scholarship QBs on the roster - one five-star and two unranked low four-stars. 2027: Sark should be battling for Elijah Haven out of Louisiana that's committed to Bama. #1 QB. Gunner Rivers out of Alabama uncommitted. Brady Edmunds out of Cali committed ro Ohio State. If anyone knows anything about QB play, it's Ohio State. I couldn't care less about Kavien Bryant, unless he decides he wants to come here. If not, whatever. But he needs to change his philosophy to get the best of the best year-in and year-out. Fuck hurrt feeijgsm If Arch comes back, we're about to have 3 QBs on scholarship assuming Owens transfers, if not we're absolutely fucked. He's coming back, just saying. Then we'll get another transfer. This ain't it. This isn't how you succeed. You want the best of the best to go against each other. As an aside, we should offer Brian Hartline an ungodly amount of money to get us WR's. Motherfucker can recruit them like it's as easy as getting out of bed. Every year since 2015, Bama has had either a five-star or a kid ranked in the top-100. Three years he didn't - 2018, 2019, 2023, and they were still ranked in the top-150 overall. Bama: has three scholarship QBs on their roster - two five-stars and one top-75 high four star I understand people will probably disagree because...reasons. We almost lost our starting QB to a Mississippi State defense and then he came out the next game dealing. Let's hope he keeps it up, or else we're all going back to Caldwell should starts thread. Georgia: one high four star top-100 starting (Stockton), one high four-star top-75, one high four-star top-150, one high four-star top-200, and then one five-star for 2026, Jared Curtis, ranked only behind Dia Bell. 2016: five-star 2017: top-150 high four-star 2018: five-star 2019 - low three-star 2020 - top-250 high four-star (Carson Beck) 2021 - five-star Just an asidd, Stetson Bennet, 7 year student was a three-star and an obvious outlier. Since Kirby took over in 2016, they have had either a five-star, or high four-star QB each year. (four five-stars, one rop-50, one top-75, one top-150, one top-200, one top-250). They will have 4 QBs on scholarship if Stockton doesn't come back who are all in the top-150 or higher. If Stockton comes back they will have 5 QBs on scholarship with four being top-200 (198) or higher. 1- five-star 4- high four-stars We are the outlier with one highly ranked and two forgotten in the rankings, and Owens is probably transferring, although I don't know why he would. We bitch about the OL, but Sark's philosophy in recruiting but, QBs has to change. We're in hospice mode, just circulating the drain. We are so far behind programs like Ohio State we should be emulating. Our QB room is nothimg less than exsangauinated.
  20. If he were hired here, hypothetically speaking, and it won't happen anyway, if Lane were to come here he would be an absolute regard if he didn't try and keep PK and the defensive staff. As for offense, I would imagine he would either bring his own or hire new OL, ST, and TE while bringing over his current WR coach, George Mcdonald, who held the same position at NC State, who have had a pretty good WR core since he was there and before his departure for Ole Miss. He coached KC Concepcion, Emeka Emenzie, and Devin Carter are names I know he coached, and looking further he coached (I don't know if you know these names, but they're vaguely familiar) Dacari Collins, Noah Rogers, Wesley Grimes (reportedly runs a laser times 4.24 40), and Terrell Anderson.
  21. Eh, I don't know about "greatest ever," but we weren't as bad as we remember it being. We got absolutely obliterated by Georgia the firdt time due to lack of preparedness, but the second time we sent Beck to the ICU, and had no idea Stockton could run since we didn't have any tape on him, and still went to OT. In the CFP against fOSU, Cam Williams came back too early from his knee sprain against ASU due to both pressure because it was the semifinal, but also because we had no one behind him except Baker, who would have gotten destroyed (same with Chatman).
  22. Fml, I seriously don't want to be "that guy," but it's our* I'm sorry. I hate being a grammar Nazi when I also misspell and get called out, but it has to be done to equal out the assholery here.
  23. I would only go to Newark if I could smoke weed with Redman. Other than that, I'm gonna have to pass on that. I don't want my death and the last thing I city is a liquor store on a corner in Newark.
  24. May your lord, God, up your allowance and let you buy as much cocaine as your body can handle, good sir.
  25. We were driving through it, stopped, got some beers, and then headed to Cape May. It wasn't a decision that we were like 'You know what? We should stop in Camden. I've heard real nice things about it.' Lovely city. Beautiful atmosphere.
