 What is this dude’s full name? And does he have some game tape? I think I’ve seen two videos of him and both times he’s going up against air.

Dude's gonna expose a lot of over-confident DBs.

"The victim did not wish to report this case immediately due to Watkins football status and source of family income being jeopardized, according to the incident report."

 

Did not realize UF players were paid so handsomely.

[BigHorn'13 3363]

Interesting way to end a paragraph. 

She told police she was able to escape after she found a can of mace in her bag and sprayed Watkins. The report says Watkins believed the victim was pregnant.

Saw on the LSU boards not to long they were talking about OT Badara Traore ( the JUCO that Duvernay supposedly told not to come to Texas ).  Anyways, apparently he's struggling.  Said he couldn't handle the heat in practices/out of shape and was getting beat off the edge/is slow.  I don't think he's starting for them.

Edit:  ourlads shows him starting at RT.  Must have improved since I saw the stuff on tigerdroppings.

That's a real shame.

Sounds like Duvernay is a smart guy.

Duvernay was playing chess.

Rondale Moore is a killer. But I understand if he had reasons to go where he wished. Good luck, kid

Ya you're right Chris, we forced him out for higher rated guys. 

On the bright side, I see this as more proof positive that our coaching staff is nailing evals on players. Especially last year with rubes like EJ doing the duck walk all year - WADDLEWADDLEWADDLEWADDLE and thinking they know better.

Well, it stings a bit but he seems like a good guy and hopefully Jamison, with his superior shuttle, is a good replacement.

Mookie Wilson will make us forget about Rondale.

Hopefully your just making a Joke but if not, it’s Mookie Cooper for future reference.

Jake Smith too.

Yea, wish we could have had him, but agree.  Also, good for Rondale going to a place to make an immediate impact, hard to fault a kid for that.

[Hornsfan91 181]

Anyone has the clip of O’Neal getting scored on last night?

Agreed- he is able to make an instant impact at Purdue. If he came here, he’d probably be sitting behind some talented upper classmen for a year (not saying he wouldn’t deserve to start over them).

5:58 mark - just after the VJax fumble ::

 

 

[Walden Ponderer 12639]

That must have been Jerry Rice Jr. No way an ordinary FCS receiver could have scored on the best safety out of the State of Texas this last cycle.

You misspelled Slo’Neal.

Seen Ronnie Perkins getting a lot of play yesterday and making plays up front.  Giles'd again.

Sterns and foster played great. Dudes will be special hopefully they stay past junior year 

[Gut Wagon 8079]

Did Eagles play after the first snap? He might well have, but I just recall him having to run onto the field because of a "wardrobe malfunction" or something with CJ. Which itself struck me as odd, after 8 1/2 months to prep for the first play...but whatever.

Depends if he's a grower or a shower.

[Coelenterate Fuccboi 13097]

Watching all these 2018 slots make headlines is brutal. Moore tearing it up at Purdue, Waddle in beast mode at Alabama, and Watkins abusing people down in Florida. Oh, what might have been.

[Red Five 40859]

Yeah well Jamison had two touches for negative 6 yards, so it’s pretty much a wash.

He did have 73 yards on kick returns,.  He will do great if we just limit him to opportunities where the OC has no influence on the play.

[texifornia 56976]

Not '18, but if schadenfreude's going to be where we find our pleasure this year, we might as well bathe in it

Nah, not gonna take joy in that. Him getting pancaked every snap he plays and ending up emptying the garbage cans on my block, maybe, but not this.

Agreed but the curse still applies.

Yours isn't to decide how the curse manifests. Yours is to look away while it does its business.

I don't think Ghirmai got in the game.

He didn't - the school updated the chart later to reflect that
