Well, if you just lost some weight it could like the screen from a broken flatscreen tv.

I concur. ^^^avatar checks out

Eh. Malik didn't get caught up all that much last year, either. They were both really good, especially when playing together. You're definitely right though. It's not which of Malik or GJ was better last year. The question is what's the dropoff from Malik to whoever our second LB is?

I haven't been following 2020 all that closely. Do we have a clear next QB we're going after if we don't get Bryce Young (besides Hudson the Great, of course)?

If he's really already 6'2, 210, I think you're a lot better off bulking him up to a LB. He seems to have the frame for it. His movement skills as a LB would be elite. His movement skills as a S, not quite so much.

While you're at it, could you tell me what CB stands for?

EJ already put in the flip pick

The thing is, the vibe I'm getting from Tongue (admittedly from 9.95ers who may not know why is really up) is that he's only considering the schools recruiting him as a WR. Is he that good at LB to take a chance on landing him as a "WR" and then trying to convert him to D against his will? Honestly, I don't think he'll be a very good WR at all. At LB though, I think he could be All-Big 12 and maybe better depending on his development with a very good shot at getting drafted. I would be very surprised if any big school recruiting him actually plans to have him play WR all four years. Plus, I doubt the staff would just force him to move to D immediately. They'd likely let him get some time at WR, let it become apparent he's not going to see the field a ton at that spot or have a huge impact and let him grow more open to it. He may even come to that realization before he even steps on campus.

Makes sense then. I remember watching his hudl a while ago and thinking he could really play.

Are we at all interested in this kid? I haven't heard a lick about us recruiting him, but he seems like someone we should be after at this point. https://247sports.com/Player/Tamauzia-Brown-94118

Idk if you're just way low on Doncic or what but I could not be further opposite on evals. ha. 1. Ayton has bust written all over him. Yes, he has physical talent, but he sucked on defense in college. Very few guys become good on D in the pros if they sucked in college. KAT was actually fairly good on D in college and now he sucks at it in the NBA. Ayton has a short wingspan which won't help him make an impact on D. Also, he doesn't really take over games the way you want to see from such a physically dominant player. I can see Ayton being a guy who gets stats and highlights but doesn't make his team a whole lot better, or at least not a driving force in his team being a top 4 seed. Also, teams like the Celtics, Warriors and the Rockets are making it hard for big men to stay on the floor. The Center position is becoming less and less valuable as the game evolves. Taking Porter over Doncic would be insane, IMO. Porter can score. That's about it. He's not a good dribbler, and would have to improve a ton in that area to become a #1 scoring option for a team. He doesn't score efficiently; he jacks up a bunch of jumpers at not great clips. He's not very physical, doesn't rebound or defend all that well. And on top of all that, he's got serous back issues. Meanwhile, Doncic is playing in a league that plays way better basketball than college teams averaging 21, 7.6 TRB, 6.7 AST per 36 minutes while shooting 46/31/80 at the age of 18. I get people have concerns about his athleticism (and the athleticism that is currently guarding him), but he's incredible in the PnR, averaging 1.258 points per possesion, and knowing how running the PnR doesn't require great athleticism. He's 6'8 and could still grow some. His length will help make up for lack of athleticisim on D. I'd be picking Doncic #1 without any hesitation, but the range of opinions is what makes drafts fun.

Idk anything about his school specifically, but Maryland HS football generally isn't anything to write home about and it didn't look like he was facing elite competition in that film.

Yeah. Gunnell liked FSU and was huge on aggy. SHould be no way to lose him and now it looks like Jimbo is basically passing on him when he's a perfect fit for Jimbo's offense? Just insane. A little strange that the top two schools in-state have not been all that interested in the top ranked QB in-state who is a top-100 guy. Also, regarding the whole Jimbo changing his offense. That is never going to happen. He's a control freak and set in his ways. Every OC that goes there will be strictly a position coach that even gets micro-managed at that aspect of his job.

I guess but unless he's gonna role out some pretty drastic changes to his offense that has remained largely the same for over a decade now, doesn't seem to be a very good idea, and he's sure not gonna role that out with ass my dude as the starter.

Even if we get Tongue, I won't count him as a WR. Even just one year repping at WR instead of LB would be such a criminal misuse of his talents. Not quite the same with Bru because he's such a freak, he'd be insanely good at either but we're not getting Bru anyways, so it's a mute point.

It's not so much just in TX. The whole country is saturated with WRs. If we lose out on Higgins and Wilson and only focus on in-state guys, it would be a mistake. Pick the best 2 guys to pair with Whittington and Smith (Lord willing).

Yep. Same with showing off the national championship ring. That pitch will win over some kids, even if it's not a high percentage. This is where I'm at. Jiimbo has had his most success with pocket passers, like Jameis. Even when he gets a dual threat QB, like EJ Manuel, he turns him into a pocket passer and doesn't utilize his legs much. Jimbo's offense has to have a good pocket passer who can make reads/progression; the legs are just an unnecessary bonus. I'm not sure why he' so focused on dual threats now at aggy. Maybe that new Memphis OC is big on dual threats? Although it was Jimbo's offense all the time he was HC at FSU.

Also would not hurt to start a pipeline at Mater Dei. That school is a football factory.

Lulz. What are you talking about? He’s never said that. I literally just posted an article yesterday that was from March 29 where he says he’s not saying either way, which is exactly the same thing he said yesterday. He’s never announced he wants to stay in the Euroleague. He’s coming to the NBA next year. He’s just waiting for his team’s playoffs to end.

Yeah. I consider him different than Williams or Nana. This guys are more pass rushers like Hager or Omenihu. I view Sweat as more akin to Chris Nelson.

Yep. and I don’t think there’s much of a difference between them. I like Nana better as a prospect but his game film sucked and that would give me pause. Either way, I’d rather have both of them.

That would not suck. Williams is blowing up and getting all sorts of huge offers. We were possibly the first big time program after him and I think w should the lead, so the sooner he commits, the better for us.

I see ROFL BOX is in peak form.

I find a good sense of humor very attractive in a woman, and because of that, I would not.
