Thank you for bolding those passages, otherwise nobody would have picked up on what you were doing there.

Hahah, love it, but if you read the thread earlier, someone didn't pick up on it.

I can't explain stupid people.

Stupid people say and do stupid things. It seems they do them more often on the internet, but most likely the reality is I'm just directly subjected to it more frequently on the internet.

Hope that helps.

Cook has insinuated several times that Arch was the better QB and the coaching staff is stupid for not seeing that. Isn't that most of Surly thinks as well?

Only I can beat up my little brother. I’ll kick your ass if you try it.

Yes.

Players thinking/acting like us is a problem for the players, because we're over-emotional idiots.

In fairness (whether deserved or not) he claims that meant it’s a waste of money because QE is going into the draft and not another year of college. 
 

On3 should be taking a hit for the tabloid style clickbait

Makes perfect sense since going into the draft means he wouldn’t be transferring and taking NIL that is dependent on playing college ball at the transfer university.

I don't hate the guy. He was all Texas since he committed and helped us build that class. I think he felt like he didn't get his fair share of touches and that players like Moore got more leeway. We can debate whether that's true or not. Maybe he was let go because of trying to stir up a QB controversy in the locker room, which would be very immature of him and reason enough to be dismissed from the team.

People have been very clear why he was asked to leave

It’s funny because I equate most of Surly football opinions with Cook and totally dismiss them both.

This guy is going to end up chopping someone up with a machete while they jog down White Rock Creek Trail.

I was just thinking this the other day

I’d actually not be surprised at all to learn that Kenny D passed on Johntay. Anybody who knows about him and what he has brought to the Valley would have guessed that would be his position on a kid like that.

Man, there’s not a great track record of success for the top rated WR in the state here recently. Demas, Earle, Stewart, Cook, and Hudson. Earle might be questionable but I think the next guy was a kid who now plays at SFA. I’ll never understand why anyone would think becoming a malcontent in the middle of the season is a wise choice even if you do have eyes on the portal. It looks even worse when the other two WRs in your class got zero burn last year, had much more reason to explore other options in the spring and summer, decided to stay, one literally added extra responsibilities at a brand new position to help the team with depth, and the other dude committed to filling the big shoes JWhitt left behind as a leader/glue guy.

I mean, I suppose somebody could’ve been in his ear saying his position coach is giving preferential treatment to a kid from his HS alma mater, but all you would need to refute that is film and first hand accounts of Moore’s habits and demeanor. If he’s thinking his talent exempts him from following that example, he better hope to God that other programs only look at his HS highlight reel and don’t bother to find out what he has done since then. He should also hope they don’t take a look at how Sark treated Maalik and other players who had to decide to enter the portal at the end of last year ahead of the CFP, and how he handled Juan Davis when he asked to return to the team. Seems to me like he is fair and makes his decisions based on merit.

If I was a coach, my response would be: “so, you played as a true freshman on CFP semifinalist, you were on the field in Tuscaloosa at critical moments in your second collegiate game, spent spring and fall camp at the top of the depth chart, got plenty of snaps to start the season, eventually got passed by two dudes who got far less handed to them, and you decided to just check the fuck out because you felt you were being treated unfairly? You didn’t appreciate the team taking three older players out of the portal, but you are asking us to bring you in ahead of the young guys we already have…and pay you handsomely to do so? The second to last relevant snap you have on film is you dropping a wide open TD in a one score game and laughing about it? You left a place with the most talented QB room in the country, where they just put three dudes at your position in the league, and you want us to believe your lack of success isn’t your own fault? Who is your advisor, again? Actually, it doesn’t matter. Thanks for your time.”

You had me, and then I spotted the mistake; you're confusing players. DeAndre Moore went to St. John Bosco, while WR corch, Chris Jackson went to Mater Dei.

Yes, I do prefer when the bad guy explains the plot to me before attempting to kill the hero, how could you tell?
