  1. Plays WR on HUDL. Unless I looked away for a moment and missed it, he was never in line. He outclassed every opponent by such a degree that it seems impossible to really gauge him. Those opponents didn't look like much. Which is not to say he isn't great. I just have no way of seeing that from this HUDL.
  2. Paulie, I think Cojoe was robbed of a year in which he would have shown that marked improvement. As Bobby has pointed out, he was ahead of Baker at RT when he was injured. Were he to have fully recovered, do you [or Jeff] think he has a shot at "marked improvement"? It certainly would be a boon to the OL were he to come back strong.
  3. Bradley was an insanely good athlete. And I used to leave work to watch both Street and Hooton pitch. Hooton had an excellent Major League career. Street, who was the ace, who threw 2 no hitters including a perfect game, never pitched again after he was injured in the CWS. I think James Street was robbed of his career in baseball by that injury; perhaps his son's success was Karma.
  4. I watched my recording of the game late last night. I did not know that we had won, beforehand, for once, so I stayed involved. Have to say it is pleasant to FF through timeouts. I assume every upside within the game has been detailed even beyond Jeff's recap, so I will go back and read the game thread.
  5. So this will be Schloss's 1000th win?
  6. Jordan Pope is not a defensive threat against most of the guys he must cover in the SEC. In fact, he is a liability. He physically cannot defend the three point line because he must be in the face of the shooter to defend it, which guarantees a foul. He is better off leaving his man open for three and crashing the boards - it is that bad. I write this as someone who had the same problem defending guys three inches taller than I on the perimeter. Might as well race to the boards as the shooter committed. [That was in City League, I never played in school]. There are some good man defenders on the team. What I find disappointing are team lapses - open lanes, open baselines, allowing a man to get behind the entire team at the basket... . Two of the best man defenders are the engines of the offense, Swain and Mark. They may suffer fatigue in grueling games, which shows on defense first. I think Matas is quicker than you think he is, Jordan, but I think he simply hasn't mastered the game yet as he is still relying on his height and strength, rather than his positioning. I believe he is often guilty of [fortunately for Texas uncalled] three second violations, btw.
  7. So Ohio State football players rely on tutors and do not necessarily attend classes? I could not play the media.
  8. lamar has been very sloppy even when the bobbles were not scored as errors. switching over to hoops.
  9. That would have been a broken bat but for aluminum
  10. Have you ever seen a shift against a right handed hitter?
  11. Newman over Chatman? Is Chatman not yet recovered?
