  1. Aaaand the offseason pile on by a bunch of bored reporters begins. I take it "bad mouthed" means they got an honest assessment of the players limitations, which Elliott is decidedly a limited player.

    I would replace Connor Williams with Michael Dickson in that statement.

    Dickson wasn't a case of wanting to get out of town, there was literally nothing else for him to accomplish. The dude was a once in a lifetime punter. Williams could have easily come back this season and probably should have, but I am glad he ended up a Cowboy so hard to fault the guy.

    Hey DeShon, next time you think about bashing a coaching staff that helped you more than double your production in one year, and helped move you from a fair-to-middling Safety to a 6th round draft pick, think of something else...

    DeShon turned into a really good player at the end, but all of the guys who left early with exception of C Williams never seemed to fully buy in to what Herman was asking them even though he turned them all into beasts in one year. Even Malik seemed to want to hit the first boat out of town, even if it landed him in Cincinnati as a late 3rd round pick instead of becoming a potential first rounder this year.

    I am amped for Jake Smith and think he's gonna be a stud here.  But LOL at that tweet saying "get deep" on a vid of a dude not even hitting parallel on a squat.

    I also noticed that Jake's forearms do not seem to be elite. He may miss his 5th star because of it.

    So TCU and Tech girls can't count...and either TCU or fuckou girls don't know how to organize.

    Also, not much talent there.  Only the first OSU and perhaps both KU.  Otherwise...eesh!

    You can always count on some talent around Kingsbury.

    If we get anyone that is a current head coach then it will be a relative home run.  I'd take leach in a second but he has stated that he will never coach a game in the state of texas again.  Coming from the pirate, I believe it.

    Popular names being thrown out right now are the following: Les Miles, Dave Doreen, Bert, Willie Fritz, Kiffin.

    I don't know about Fritz but I would take any of those in a heartbeat.  Bert would get embarrassed by the conference but he would at least win 5 games a year.

    Bert has already said he may never come back to the college game because he likes the NFL so much. Kiffin would jump ship the moment something else came along and I doubt he would leave FAU for Kansas, and I would be very surprised if Lester would go to Kansas to coach. I could see Fritz making the jump, but even Doeren would be a stretch in my mind. You could also raid the ISU staff and see if they can copy the blueprint that Matt Campbell has put in place.

    This is the underlying problem with Beaty that almost no one but fans on message boards are calling out.  He gave an interview to the Athletic where he stated he had 69 scholarship players for his first game as coach.  We now have 68 scholarship players.  After we lost to baylor, he stated "I'll say this, they [baylor] were no where near where we were (when he took over).  We were down 30 scholarships, they're not even remotely close to that.  So I said that there are some things that they are facing but they are not even close to where we were and we're still not there..... But that's no excuse."  

    Then we find out that baylor traveled like 75 guys to their game at KU in 2017.  Further, 4 weeks prior to the game Beaty told the press that we had 84 scholarship guys.

    Not only is Beaty utterly incompetent as a coach, he is huckster.  He constantly lies to cover his ass regarding scholarship players.  I mentioned it on a KU board, at this point I wish the press would give him a free pass.  We don't need a potential coaching candidate to hear more analysis from the FIFTH worst head coach in college history.  They might just look at the coach in charge and say "That guys says you have 70 players on roster?  That really means you have 7-10 on the roster, I'll wait it out for a better opportunity."  Beaty discredits himself every time he opens his mouth.  

    For the record, I look up the worst coaches in history:

    1. Rick Venturi - Northwestern - 1-31-1 (0.0303)

    2. Rich Vorris - UVA - 1-29 (.0333)

    3. Rob McNeish - VTech - 1-25-3 (.0344)

    4. Stan Parrish - KSU - 2-30-1 (.0606)

    5 David Beaty - KU - 3-33-0 (.083)

    No head coach under a .105 win percentage has ever gotten a 4th season like Beaty is.

    Well he damned sure deserved it after having to walk in the shadow of the great Charlie Weis.

    It would have been nice if this NFL meetup went down before the dead period. It looks like Earl Thomas and Jeremy Hills have a top notch training facility in Austin that will attract athletes for their offseason work. I doubt that's happening at the station.

     

    It’s hard to have those night workouts when the station is so lit.
