If he thinks after giving Rhule 4 QB's that tanking in the draft for a rookie guy is what Rhule needs to be successful...Riot on Mint if we "tank" and Rhule keeps his job because it was "part of the process"

The scary thing is I think this is exactly what he has planned.

That's probably the last idea Rhule has to save his job, and Tepper is obviously in some form of denial/embarrassment mode 

When Tepper gave Rhule that 7 year deal and that off-season press conference last season about the long term process shows that Tepper is drinking the kool-aid. Sad he has Rhule spiked the bowl for the rest of us.

I mean that’s the way the nfl works, that and building an elite team and plug in a vet/high quality no mistakes guy. But more the former.

and the more you try and fight it will cheat codes and short cuts the more the franchise just gets fuged into a hole…that’s what piss poor organizations do, just look around and see it’s like a video game to them

we should’ve fuging tanked to begin with but knowing what Rhule is it’s good we didn’t. Then again the same person who hired Rhule hires the next coach

I know it’s early, but none of the QBs in this coming class are really crushing it right now. Pick 1 vs 3 might not matter as much this year…

Yeah, I'm not exactly begging for any of them but there's still a lot of football to play. We'll see.

I doubted Baker would ultimately be the answer and now I'm REALLY doubting it.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
