Wright's pass blocking is what got him past Small on the roster. He really did step it up. Small was easily the best blocker in 2021-22. Wright just worked and became a 3 down back.
Battle's roster was on par or better than Bear Bryant's roster when he was hired. HC Doug Dickey left UT football stacked in 1969 after 4 straight wins over Bama.
Battle was hired and went 11-1 in 1970 then 10-2 in 1971 (17-4-1 in 1968 & 69 in Doug Dickey's final seasons).
We were a 6 win...
Started to say something, but you're correct. I witnessed basic training for the other 3 branches (not Coast Guard, which I never witnessed). USAF and USNavy were less physically intensive. They were more cerebral and technical.
Seen it a few times, but I totally forgot about that.
Makes me wonder if he was a monster before the murders or only after. There was another assault after the Vegas "heist". He was arrested for simple battery and burglary after yanking the glasses off another motorist during a traffic...
Yay!
Our 2023 passing game was going to be as productive as the 11-win 2022 team.
And A&M had the most returning starters.
Very effective post demonstrating how returning starter numbers can be a big factor, but also just one of many factors.
I am just miffed he could die in his bed surrounded by loved ones.
He had no right to that. He should have died in a prison infirmary.
It is hard to imagine he ever repented when he offered zero remorse for what he did. He definitely did not seem saddened that Ron and Nicole were killed. Who...
Someday the Conference or collective money programs will ask the same question.
I have wondered if Vanderbilt could be offered one of those "member of the SEC in all sports except football" type deals.
I have been extremely skeptical about losing secondary starters in exchange for more undeveloped athleticism, but I am believing it now. That is the missing piece for this defense and they can be good with consistent pass rush pressure and decent run defense. Maybe really good.
