  1. Arch definitely counts. I’d say Manny Muhammad too. Anthony Cook maybe
  2. People underestimate how hard it is to be a draft pick above the final 2 rounds. Collins’ biggest issue is his motor, he’s not the most explosive guy but he moves well for his size. That doesn’t show up nearly often enough for it to be a positive. When your 4 year college career highlight happens as a freshman, that’s not a good thing.
  3. I believe today is the anniversary of the commitment of one Archibald Charles Manning. Hear, hear
  4. A high school center? Hutson, Campbell, Robertson, and probably Neto could all play center if the staff wanted them to. I believe Robertson was recruited specifically for center.
  5. Not just the push, but the get off was molasses. Laziness
  6. What does innovation have to do with being successful? Also, I said "generally," "more likely," and "increase the odds." There are outliers to pretty much anything.
  7. Generally, a person who is a slob about their own surroundings will be more likely to hold a lower standard for other aspects of their life. The little things matter and how consistent we are about doing them is a key indicator of long term success. He may not find success in the NFL as a player, but him consistently having those standards throughout his life will greatly increase the odds of him having lifelong success.
  8. He won't do well his first year, but he can clearly sell playing time now. He won't get the top guys, he doesn't need them, but there's a decent number of quality kids that he can assemble to eventually get to bowl eligibility in the next two years.
  9. Pretty sure Bama's new OC came from ND too. Maybe even recruited Buchner to ND originally.
  10. Imagine have a performance/outcome dependent job where you aren't just guaranteed a paycheck for showing up. If you are valued by the market, you get paid. If you aren't, you stop getting paid. Create value for the market so you get paid.
  11. Some people prefer to remain anonymous when it comes to their more frivolous expenses.
  12. That's another transfer guard they need to land. That one hurts though.
  13. He's a tough kid, but it's hard when you aren't fully focused and that's the only way you'll find success. Why be decent at multiple things when you can be elite at one? Focus is a very valuable thing.
  14. Anyone who could skim or watch that podcast interview and come away with "he's a narcissist" is so deep in their own confirmation bias that they aren't worth trying to save. This has nothing to do with how successful he will be as head coach at Texas. The dude is consistent as hell, and that's generally what we call genuine. All he needs to do now is win more games to take it to the next level. The guy has a great story and more candor than most would have with similar circumstances.
  15. Looks like he won't be changing the color of his jersey too much
  16. That's gotta be the most compact 6'2 300 lb guy I've ever seen. Wonder if those measurements are as accurate as Tausili Akana's were.
  17. Unintentional irony At least he was close. It’s Jordan Matthews, pyro.

    Fuck off

    Found a pic of OP just before he started this thread
  19. Our team will be more effective in the second half as our OL becomes more mature in running the base offense. Sark needs to learn how to sprinkle his wrinkles in even after they show they can stop it once or twice. Our guys need to make it harder to diagnose what plays we’re running. If we do a better job of making plays look the same, we’ll be harder to stop in the second half.
