  1. Ouch, @Hookem97. I know Vandy is lower tier, but they're still SEC!
  2. I think you're wrong about PK. Texas was 4th nationally in rushing yards allowed per game. 13th Nationally in points allowed at 17.5, and #1 nationally in 3rd down conversion percentage. It's elite in the stats that really impact winning and losing. Could it be better in 2:00 situations? Yep. But suggesting that he's not a championship level coach ignores the fact that we did, in fact, win a conference championship for the first time in well over a decade.
  3. When y'all had him on the show, I said he'd commit on OTF. I was wrong, but not by much.
  4. Love that comment about Banks. Sounds like good natured fun.
  5. So happy you guys did this. I've been an OTF junkie for well over a year. Glad to be an OG. As an aside, the IT website, after some testing, hogged 24% of my computer's memory. Just having a tab open, not even active, just open, was a miserable experience technically. I jettisoned that bookmark and now I can use my computer without the sluggishness and lag that I had. (I never had problems on mobile, but my PC HATED that website.)
  6. He starts every press conference talking about another Longhorns team on campus. Seems really good for overall morale in the athletic department for the guy with the most eyeballs to consistently talk about other coaches and teams.
  7. For a HS kicker, he's got a great swing. Tons of potential.
  8. Neto is really the only guy I'm worried about. I think he's going to be really good. I'd hate to end up playing against him in week 2 with a chip on his shoulder.
  9. It would be really difficult to play QB in the NFL with only one year playing college ball. The success rate would be really low. He's thinking long-term. He needs at least 20 starts. So that's all of 25 and either most of 26 or, less likely, most of 2024. Odds are that he plays 25 and 26, and then probably off to the NFL.
  10. Thanks, CJ. This gives us a pretty good look at where the portal activity will probably come from. Absolute minimum of 4, but probably closer to 7, and that's adding just two guys and putting Auburn on scholarship.
  11. I think Texas coaches know they need a 0, but I'm not cynical enough to think they "know" who that's going to be yet. They probably have a wish list, but knowing implies agreements made, etc., and I don't buy that. Pate is a guy who desperately wants to be seen as an insider, and this is exactly the kind of non-specific claim that convinces non-critical thinkers that they really do know something.
  12. Definitely the environment where he thrives (no pass rush and can just be a thrower). I'd love to see him improve his ability to deal with pressure at Duke. Still hoping he finds success.
  13. Not a great look for newly promoted HC Sherrone Moore. He's got a lot of staff rebuilding to do, and having this kind of $*%& up in your first round of hires isn't a positive. Not sure if it's enough to put Michigan's upperclass DTs in the portal, but not good for Michigan overall.
  14. I have several friends who remember running into Ricky walking around New Orleans on New Year's Eve after the '95 Sugar Bowl. What does he remember about that experience?
  15. More hoops games than I could count. Graduation. Metallica & Guns N' Roses show in '92.
  16. Rod B's head is gonna explode. at vs for
  17. This was my exact thought when I read the story about Manziel.
  18. A lot of kids in my area (Chicagoland) take community college classes that count as both HS and college credits. But that's more about the financial benefit to getting some less expensive college credits than graduating early. That probably would be a little different focus.
  19. Any further expansion and it's time to just start a new league altogether. Teams can't play that many postseason games. It's getting close to an NFL schedule for guys that are still teenagers physically.
  20. I think we'll see less movement than we saw at Bama. They could retain most of their staff and players if they elevate Moore to HC, which they will probably do.
