Need another Tackle or 2 to beat Kirby especially on Kick-off and Punt returns.

Is it Happy Hour yet?

Now you are playing 2 people out of position and hoping that they can play that position at a high level. Maybe they can maybe they can't. It's safer and cheaper to just go for an established guard already.

Run blocking would be insane

This is the way. You know what’s hell on a QB? 4 man pressure then having to decipher 7 on the back end. I’ve never known a team that created too much pressure on the opposing QB.

Giga-jag

Four? I think you’d move baker and Siani inside imo

At least somebody is trying to keep this thread on subject and not going off of the tracks.

this kid would be disciplined - and has experience at Guard or Tackle.

Is it reasonable for each of the 10,000 kids in the portal to have a certified agent? I ask just because I hear this suggestion a lot, but I don't know if it's scalable; this isn't the NFL with only 30 teams. As a locked-in horns fan, I spend most of my time thinking about the top 5% of the sport. But this thing is a whole lot bigger than whether some former 4-star recruit who's a backup at an SEC school is getting good advice on transferring to a Big 12 school. Outside of what concerns "us" and the very top of the sport, is it actually realistic (1) to require that every "agent" be certified, in the first place, much less (2) to enforce that? —— My proposal is actually to do nothing on the "agents issue." Maybe this is too much free market fundamentalism, but I am not concerned about the bad advice. These are legal adults 18+, and they get to make decisions that impact them. If as a player you tell teams to work through Uncle Joe, and he's a clown that schools won't deal with, that comes back and hurts you—just like the 18 year old who decides classes aren't important or whatever. Or maybe you're good enough that teams are willing to deal with the BS, then congrats. Everyone has free will here. It's just not worth creating a regulatory market on representation and trying to enforce that at the unwieldy scale that makes college football categorically different than, say, the NFL.

@Gerry Hamilton I think it’s time to put the corndogs and oatmeal creampies to pasture man. Those are showing up quicker than herpes! You gained the freshman 15 in about a day!

You are most welcome

@Joe Zura you’re rubbing off on us!

Say that name one more time I dare you

Think that’s about as good a recap as you’ll get

Hush “Rocky P”

How would having 2 dominate edge rushers be more of a luxury than having 4 starting quality tackles would be?

My recollection is that @Joe Zura, who is one of the OTF OGs, had a bit of a fit during the infamous July 4 recruiting thread and made a big deal about Dakorien Moore in particular. Joe likes to give Gerry sh*t in response to literally everything that Gerry posts. So eventually Gerry started implying that Joe was secretly an Oregon fan, which morphed into Dan Lanning pictures and eventually into Joe being represented as a duck. I might be misremembering some of the details but I think that’s the gist

I don't remember that but maybe. I do remember him talking about how the NFL looks at DL from the SEC and why he thought it was important to play in the SEC because lineman from other conferences don't get drafted at the same rate.
