I read this and thought: "a 6' 11" lineman that can play both guard and tackle? Holy shit". Then I realized it was about basketball.

If, under this new staff, we are now playing “the game”, as many have eluded to, we seem to be unable to close on some of these transfers.  Makes you wonder. Maybe too small a sample size though.

What, specifically, are you wondering about?

In general, losing OOS targets to Ohio State and OU, who both do whatever it takes, in a year they both should make the Playoff is hardly an indictment. Banks has a bunch of friends on TCU's roster.

Wondering if we really are playing the game or just not effective at it. 
 

But as you pointed out there are reasonable explanations for our misses, thus the small sample size caveat. 
 

And thank you Mr Bot for correcting my error. I am better for it.

Seems odd but I guess just insurance in case Card or Casey transfer. Not an exciting take either way though..

I get it though. It's likely that the loser of Card and Casey transfers. Better to have a guy that is coming in to be the backup that has actually played in college football, as opposed to the 2 freshmen. Granted he was not good at LSU, but with all the personnel losses and the really shitty coaching, that shouldn't be a surprise.

If Casey plays better and wins the job, Card stays. (Why leave Sark right before the season?)

If Card plays better and Casey is awarded the job, Card likely leaves. (Why stay if performance doesn’t matter.)

If Card wins the job, then Casey is likely gone, though he might just transfer at the semester, because it will be too late to contribute in the fall.

So what you are saying is... we may have one leaving in June?

The general sentiment around Card is he’s likely to stay, starter or not. That could change, but it’s been said here and elsewhere that he doesn’t abide by the logic you’ve given.

My feeling is that they'll both play this fall, even without injury. But the #1 at the start of the first game may not be the #1 at the start of the last game.

If they both stay, they'll both play the fall of 2022 as well, but there will be a #1 and a #2 from the start of the season until the end of the season that won't change unless there's an injury.

I was a bench warmer for JV football in 9th grade, which was the last organized football that I played with pads. The last organized football I played of any kind was freshman year intramural football at UT where my team was put in the top level and we were shellacked on a weekly basis, however I did help coach a 2nd Grade flag football team in Denver 2 1/2 years ago, so I'm a little knowledgeable on coach think.

I think that may be true if Thompson starts the first game. But if Card is named starter for week 1 I think he will maintain the starting role and it would signal to me this staff chose the potential of card over the more seasoned Thompson. The old saying of if you have two QBs you don’t have one....

"Sources have suggested Indiana could be a landing spot for Carr given his history with running backs coach Deland McCullough. Carr was coached by McCullough in 2017 for one season at USC prior to the running backs coach's departure for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2018."
