  1. I can't see either Murphy or Manning sticking around if they're not starting, but I'm just some random dude on the internet. Someone here probably knows much more than me about it.
  2. Cam Williams is cross training at both tackle positions. He'll back up either Banks or Jones if needed. Before Kirkland.
  3. What worries me more is who will be QB2 in 2024 if Ewers goes pro and one of Murphy or Manning transfer after the other wins the Spring QB competition. Who is in that room, other than Austin's own Charlie Wright or true freshman Trey Owens? Do we go for a transfer, and what QB worth a damn would transfer to play backup?
  4. The drum that schools like ASU have been banging is not that they share revenue, but that the schools' athletic association opens up the doors for additional academic association. It's not codified in the conference bylaws (like the B1G's Academic Alliance), but the school presidents would be hard pressed to say they only discuss athletics outside of the conference rooms when they meet semi-annually. The schools that align together in the athletic conference (Pac-12) also align together and help each other as institutions, including research projects. You are correct that research funding isn't pooled and split across the members of the athletic conference. The argument made by the people in charge at Utah and ASU has been that by associating with schools like Stanford they increase their potential funding from research. Personally, I don't know anything about this. If you do, then I'm happy to defer.
  5. Thank fucking God. Some actual screen shots in the screen shot thread.
  6. If the remaining Big 12 schools gave a shit about academics, then Stanford would still be a good get just for access to its research facilities. That's what has made ASU so reticent to leave the PAC - they've made a ton of money on research through their relationship to Stanford and don't see the same thing happening with any of the Big 12 schools. Not sure that it makes much of a difference, but something to keep in mind.
  7. Aww yiss. Football season is upon us, boys
  8. Sarkisian is beaming like a new mother in that video to Owens. Guess he really sees something in the kid.
  9. I recognize these rumors are common knowledge at this point, but does anyone have any updates? Figured I would pose this question in the appropriate thread rather than furthering shitting up the '24 recruiting or off-season practice threads.
  10. I hear this a lot from fans and talking heads and it has started to annoy me. Yes, most of us can see things when they occur. The trick is to predict things that are likely to happen before they happen, using available data. The PFF numbers are one such data point.
  11. From what I've read, he also gave Sark and PK a little more insight into how the Big 12 works and how the long-standing coaches think. He also scouted our offense for weaknesses. I would love to have him back. He'll always be sweaty Gare to me and I still kinda hate him. But I have to acknowledge his expertise.
  12. I cannot physically roll my eyes hard enough at this.
  13. In light of how it has worked out (two championships and zero consequences), wish we were cheating like that ourselves.
  14. I just wanted to read about @Scipio's new book. Why are you assholes doing this?
