  1. The penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct are adequate and should be enough to regulate the game and to discourage any repeat performance. Seen as a part of an undisciplined whole it is a much bigger issue. I think we all know that. Surely the coaches know it.
  2. I remember this vaguely so stand to be corrected. Florida won a Natty with 3 or 4 NBA eligible players who chose to come back for a second run. At the time it was written that the players who chose to return were unusually placed as sons of financially successful parents who therefore felt no money pressure to leave early. Now NIL can remove the financial pressure to leave early. My question to those who have followed this closely: Has NIL been a motivator for any NBA eligible and likely first round choice to return?
  3. I think the Arch comments deserve a bit more nuance. I have seen him play well against tough opponents. This was the worst game I have ever seen him play; from after the helmet-to-helmet hit it was his worst game by far. A coaching decision to play KJ after Arch's helmet was separated from his head might have been in order.
  4. Question here for anyone who coached football: After Arch took that uncalled helmet to helmet hit that tore off his helmet, would it have made more sense to let KJ have the next series? Question for anyone here who played football, unlike me: With depth comes the opportunity to rest guys – would subbing in the second string O Line as a unit have put some spring where the first team O line seemed a bit dead legged? Basketball coaches who have deep teams often sub by unit – that is where I am drawing the parallel. And to bolster my suggestion: The D Line does sub freely and they were alive the entire game. The first OL had played every snap against Ohio State.
  5. Seems like a very personable young man. Thanks for that LHN video, BB.
  6. On the other hand...LSU and TT forming their own conference with their own rules? They could add the very best state prison all star teams and the Arena teams to their schedules. They could play in the Spring. It might fill a niche.
  7. Another surprise for me? Cole Hutson nowhere on the depth chart. I would have thought RG #2... .
  8. Randle won 3-0. LWC carried over 30 times, averaged less than 5 YPC.
  9. Re: best twosome, I had to look this up. For 2005: Crowder: 20 QB pressures, while recording 50 tackles, nine TFLs, three sacks, an interception and, a forced fumble. B-Rob: 58 tackles, 35 solo, and led the team in quarterback sacks with seven. He also had 15 tackles behind the line of scrimmage. Robison was credited with 10 quarterback pressures, four pass deflections, and three forced fumbles. He also blocked one kick and recovered two fumbles.
  10. Robison and Crowder were the best pair of DEs who played on the same team at the same time.
  11. Do many guys still end up in Canada? The wider field would be good for Blue, I think.
  12. You included Spence on the chart more than once which I understand completely. But doesn't the same logic place Cojoe second at both offensive tackle slots? Surely he would play ahead of Newman, correct?
