  1. Colorado's defense is still just pure trash. Maybe they should just play Hunter at WR because the D is hopeless.
  2. Why in the world are you running a safety blitz against a team that loves to throw downfield when you're at a significant speed disadvantage st every position? That was DUMB.
  3. I mean, it's WCU. They've been a bottom of the barrel D1-AA team most of my life.
  4. If they aren't significantly improved this year why would any "name" program want him? Hype and attention won't last if the wins don't come.
  5. It is, but those teams will still be in the bottom half.
  6. Hot take incoming.... Colorado will lose to NDSU tonight. ESPN will still act like they're Pete Carroll Era USC.
  7. Those teams have all fell off the map. They're all borderline P5 caliber programs now.
  8. Yeah, he's putting a TON of mileage on that kid. I get it, he's a stud and you want to give him every opportunity to impact the game but I think you gotta protect him from himself and just play him at CB then give him maybe 10-12 snaps a game at WR. He isn't the CB he could be whole also trying to play WR full time too, not to mention the excessive wear and tear.
  9. Imagine giving him that contract then he becomes a part owner so his role has to be significantly limited. If they were smart they would've used that to wiggle out of the deal.
  10. Preston Smith and Bryon Jones were my 1A and 1B in that draft after DJ Humphries went right in front of us. I did NOT want Shaq. It was less about the player and more about the need. We have a bad history of using premium picks on ho hum prospects at positions where we have minimal immediate need. I don't believe in picking for need, but need has to he factored into the equation. If you have similarly rated prospects but one plays a position of dire need and the other plays a position where he would definitely be relegated to a backup role for the foreseeable future, IMO that's an easy decision to make.
  11. Fair. I meant the comparison basically in terms of them being JAG starters. They check the box. They're not major plusses nor are they major liabilities (unless they're one of your best players or being way overpaid). We were right to let Anderson walk. We dumbly paid Shaq.
  12. Basically James Anderson. Newer fans will say "Who???" Yeah, exactly.
  13. Samsung generally uses the latest l, most advanced version of Corning's Gorilla Glass in their top tier phones. Apple doesn't disclose but they're probably not. Now Samsung just needs to stop fuging up Android with a massive, cumbersome overlay. They basically try to Apple up Android.
  14. Yeah, the X was right around the time I was bailing. I think that was the first device released after the Google acquisition. I just knew that Google had no long-term interest in hardware manufacturer. They wanted Motorola for the treasure chest of patents. They sold it off to Lenovo.
  15. Don't get hung up on the "military grade" moniker. Industrial standards are the same. It's just a way of saying this device passes a certain protocol of tests. It's about surviving six foot drops, water, dust exposure, etc. I worked for Motorola for several years when they were getting started in the smartphone game. Bailed when they were bought by Google.
  16. No, I mean I know he isn't because his mom was jet black. He's definitely not chipped because he was literally days old when I found him abandoned. She moved the nest and left him. The vet estimated him to be two, maybe three days old at most.
  17. Can't no new box come in this house that this cat don't claim it as his new home. You can barely get the goods out of the box before he's in it. LOL I know he's not a ragdoll because I found him in a ditch and his mom was jet black but good grief, he looks just like a pure ragdoll blue eyes and all.
  18. These were his passing stats for his two freshman starts filling in for Lawrence But his rushing stats point to one of the issues he never adapted to and more importantly, his coaches never adapted to. 6 carries for 25 yards and a TD and 13 carries for 2 yards and a TD. Yes, THIRTEEN carries for TWO yards. Bro, you're not a dual threat at the high major college level. You're a pocket passer. You're a big strong dude so you can run short yardage sneaks but you can't tuck and run unless there is a LOT of open grass in front of you and coaches dialing up designed runs for this guy need their heads examined. The guy could run in HS, he can't run in high major college football.
  19. He looked fuging GOOD as a freshman. Scary good. Then he fell off a cliff.
  20. I have zero sympathy at all for the organizations themselves, all of my sympathy is for the fanbases. The organizations get what they deserve. They make their own beds.
  21. That would be awesome. It's also highly unlikely.
  22. This is why you don't draft older raw prospects. If you're gonna draft a raw prospects, he better be young. When a guy is older and still raw it isn't enticing "upside", it's a massive red flag of why this guy isn't more polished with his age and experience playing high major college football.
