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.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
