Not surprised I blocked this Whitlock guy on Twitter at some point in the past after looking up his recent tweets. 

Not about Whitlock though...and to be clear, Whitlock was far from the only person to criticize this.

How does a college coach not know the name of his starting center? Especially so when that guy is snapping to his own son.

I'm not asking him to know the names and stories of every single player on his roster, but is it really too much to ask that he know who his starting center is?

Deion doesn’t know his starting Cs real/birth name.  That much seems clear. Which is odd for someone that touches the ball every down and who essential to his QBs play and safety.  

some talking heads were also talking about that cheap shot on the DB/WR superstar……and how literally no one cared outside of Sanders son.  Which is odd in football.   And it even happened on the Colorado sideline. 

it does seem like Colorado is largely a Sanders family reality show that features the one superstar making a guest appearance.  Camera crews basically document it like a family owned business.   

I do wonder how the Deion Show goes when they start getting smacked.  Which is the next couple weeks.

It's not the starting Center. The starter was questionable all week so they played a freshman back up as a game day decision. They have like 113 players technically on the roster

Whitlock is horrible.  No doubt.  And has his own agenda 

But Deion still didn’t know the name of his starting C.  Which is really freaking odd at the least

It was a freshman backup that he didn't recruit. The starter Van Wells was questionable all week and they went with the freshman as a game day decision

Yeah, and he didn’t know his starting center’s name.   Because that’s what the kid was. 

it’s still weird for coach.  100 kids isn’t a lot if that is the world you live in.  Ask any teacher.  It wasn’t the first day of school.

It’s still his starting center for the game.  This isn’t the first day of school.   He is a football coach.  100 kids isn’t actually a lot in the context of a college football coach this far into a season. 

it’s still a weird clip.   

Maybe he was thinking of Hank Williams Jr from the old NFL intro. Not sure who all the Hanks were he was confused over.  1 Hank on the roster.  No Hanks on staff.

If E-Z-U loses to Gardner Webb on Saturday does Houston even bother showing up to work on Monday?

He shouldn't, but most likely will. That program has never been great but at least they were sort of respectable when Ruff was the coach. Since then they have been terrible and getting worse.

They've had their moments of respectability. Hell, they accounted for 50% of Matt Rhule's wins over top 25 teams.

      Mike Kaye’s take: 2026 NFL free agency predictions

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Oh I totally get it, but just because we can do that, doesn't mean it's the right way to go.  If this was Madden with video game players, then sure, do it because it helps the cap.  But with real people, doing that is likely only going to piss him off and make him want to sign with any other team the following offseason. I'm not saying give him a stupid deal, but giving him like $3-5 million for the one season would be a massive raise over the minimum, it wouldn't hurt our cap situation, he'd still likely play well above that level of contract, and it would help keep him happier with the franchise. But in the end, all I really want is for them to find a way to make sure they won't be needing to do deals for both Coker and T-Mac in the same offseason, as that's a terrible way to spend your cap space in a single offseason.  Separating their contracts expiring/negotiations into different offseasons would be the best way to keep them both around long term.

      Thielen retires

      Going into that drive with 3 timeouts in our back pocket, I could never imagine the game plan was for Bryce to throw the ball away 3 times in a row to result to this 4th down situation. 3 fuging time outs available and acted like it was hail mary situation

      Consensus view on Evero summed up in 1:00

      By Castavar · Posted

      Absolutely should have been a fireable offense (and this coming from a guy who defended Evero throughout the season) There is only 3 outcomes you want on that drive. 1) Turnover  2) sack 3) They score fast so we get the ball back with a lot of time and 3 timeouts to win the game We chose the absolutely WORST possible scenario. We let them waltz down the field playing soft zone AND let them kill the clock in the process. If there was EVER a time to play aggressive with no consequence, it was on that drive. Ok, we play aggressive and get burnt on a long TD. Who cares, then we have the last possession to go win the game with 3 timeouts and  at least 1:30 left. Pisses me off just watching that video.
