  1. He was. His starts were pretty rough at the combine. Would it surprise anyone if Bond didn’t take combine prep seriously?
  2. Its not really close. FEI rankings 2024: 3rd DFEI, 18th OFEI 2023: 6th DFEI, 19th OFEI 2022: 8th DFEI, 17th OFEI 2021: 27th DFEI, 35th OFEI The defensive improvement has been consistent. The offense has under-performed the last few years and been stagnant. Defense is what is driving the improvement. Like to see Sark get his 1st top 10 offense at Texas. Hard to ask the defense to do much more.
  3. either way he is one big corn fed SOB
  4. we saw some burst, but in the short game. Bond turning the corner on a screen was a crazy moment. You saw his speed. Not to mention you could see on the breaks. It wasnt the typical deep ball, but even in this limited version of Sark's offense his game plan was to get them in space and let them work
  5. I think it is positive fro the future. More that he is probably showing above expected mobility and has the ability to play OT. Have to wait a couple weeks on the actual blocking ability.
  6. I am going to wait to get excited on LOS guys until at least 1 full contact practice. I like the news, but I can not get too excited until there is some actual blocking and tackling going on.
  7. either way he still has short arms. The 3/8 on an inch isnt going to change the talking points.
  8. I am guessing Blue did not do enough events to be scored. I think he only did the 40. I dont even know where the Jada comment comes from, but I'll assume you believe it to be relevant. I posted the RAS scores to show that this is seriously deep and athletic RB group.
  9. RAS2025 NFL Draft Class that is the RAS for the draft.

  10. I dont know the Pro Day 40 times. Those are usually faster than the combine. I know Omarian Hampton put on an absolute show at 6' and 221 pounds 2 other guys were sub 4.4.
  11. I expect some growing pains. That probably applies to multiple areas of the team. My biggest fear is dropping a game early as the team is finding itself. The turnover thing is interesting. Normally it would be ridiculous to think a 1st time starter would have less turnovers than a 3 year starter in his last year, but Quinn had 17 in 14 games. He also had some really costly turnovers. I can see Arch having more of the 40 yards downfield type interceptions, which are not as costly. Not sure the defense will be strength. I expect so reversion from them. I still think it is a good group, but I doubt they are in the argument for the best defense in the nation like last year. Would be nice to see Sark have his 1st top 10 offense at Texas, which I think is possible.
  12. Roschon didnt get benched and he played with Bijan. There is huge difference between losing your job and carries to Wisner compared to Bijan. Not to mention Rojo didnt go in the top 3 rounds and he was a special teams asset.
  13. I get that, but he wasnt even a starter for Texas. Possible someone falls in love with the speed, but top 3 rounds seems crazy given the film.
  14. Blue was more of a specialty player. He is going to get drafted due to his singular elite trait, his speed. He had drops and fumble issues, especially early. He did not have great contact balance or vision, both of which I believe are far more important than pure speed. They are even bigger vs quality defenses, because you dont get those big creases. These games are where the ability to make 1-2 extra yards consistently can keep an offense on schedule. I am on record saying I hope to see star emerge in the Backfield. I have seen more solid than star from the current RBs. I think the 25 offense will be more of a between the tackles run game. Quick feet, vision, and contact balance are the diving traits in that scenario. I do think there is enough speed in the RB room to beat LBs in the pass game.
  15. If that happened this would be a boring site and 80% of the traffic would disappear overnight. It does seem like you found Jesus recently or should I say Jesus Manning, because I believe there is thread here that you questioned the the staff on a daily basis during the season.
  16. He is actually right. Richardson going top 5 is still a mystery to me. The guy completed slightly below 54% of his passes in his last year in college. That said you guys are arguing over who is the tallest midget
  17. Excited to see Alex January has “come on some more” in the 1 practice in shorts and a helmet
  18. The point is more that it could take 6-8 games for this team to hit their stride. Hard to predict how long it takes to gel. This team has a bit more volatility than we have seen recently.
  19. Texas is going to be very talented, but they are replacing a lot of starts. Losing 80% of the OL. Losing the entire 2 deep at DT Losing 2 NFL WRs and an NFL TE. Losing Thorpe award winner at CB and an NFL Safety Texas will have the talent to compete for a NC this year, but when they grow will be the question. Texas will be formidable in Nov and beyond. How they look the first 4-5 weeks will be questionable.
  20. I see that said here a lot. I have to ask, would you use the same logic for a Sark QB?
  21. I am not a huge fan of Dart, but he did have a great season. Nobody was close to him among SEC QBs. 10.8 per attempt on 69.3% comp. 29 TDs and 6 Ints. He led the nation in passer rating. He added almost 500 yards rushing. I wouldnt pick him top 10, but I can see why someone could look at the season he had and convinced themselves to do it.
  22. I would not argue that. I just think Arch will be better at turning a bad situation into 2nd 10 or 2nd 5, instead of 2nd 17 or a turnover.
  23. I think the hope for long drives is in Manning's ability to sustain drives and avoid big negative plays. I think his running ability, but maybe more importantly his pocket awareness could improve that.
  24. Antonio Williams was Clemson's best WR. He was a 3 year starter.
  25. He was 3rd in Passing Efficiency behind Rudy Carpenter (asu) and Brian Brohm (Louisville). VY is arguably the best CFB player ever, but more of a playmaker than a pure QB. It would have been great to see VY play in today's NFL, where offensive coordinators would have tailored the offense to his game better. Vince rushed 167 and 155 times in his last 2 seasons. He averaged 14 attempts per game as a Soph and 12 as a Junior (17 att or more in 4 games). Arch is passer first. He is a QB with the ability to run. Arch is not as good of a runner as VY and Sark is not going to use his legs like that. They are just different players.
