Copycat league and he was on that Sean McVay tree…so they shook it. Where they’re most at fault is thinking his inane on-field gambles and decisions would improve with multiple opportunities.

@LA Vol what do you see as being the biggest obstacle for us right now in recruiting HS and or transfers?

Seems like we cant close a barn door.

I think they were slow starters because they wanted to keep current guys and that process took time. They've been waiting to see who comes available before filling spots. They've been slow to give committable offers to certain guys and they've shifted focus and moved on from others. We'll see where we are next week. They might get everybody they want-- which probably won't match fans' wish list.

Freaking out lol

But at the same time I do it for fun, so wasn’t all that sweaty haha.

I like doing this little challenge as well, although I lose after day 3 most of the time. If you don’t want the +100 odd, a lot of people do this but do it with -200 odds.

Not a bad way to play with $10.

That would be a fun challenge to play. After day 7-8 though it would feel quite irresponsible to put $640+ on a game lol. I may try doing that with Wong NFL teasers. They've been lucrative for me this year. All games that fit that criteria are hitting around 70% this season and usually hit at that rate most years.

The portal is not going to make a championship team, championship teams supplement with the portal.

It may help make a championship team. I just don't think it creates a sustainable program. You will miss on some transfers eventually, and I believe that developing a good bit of your roster is a better recipe for sustained success.

IMO:

Dingle starting TE
Sharp depth TE
Brazzel - Outside WR
Wallace - DE
McCoy - CB

Big Fish potential will be OL imo:
Tate (UGA) or Remington (A&M)

Paying players lacks integrity? Every program does it. Every coach we have ever had did it. Am I missing something? It's even allowed now.

You seriously believe that every program doing it makes it morally correct? Do you even know what the word integrity means?

As Foster Mom used to say "Wrong is still wrong even if everybody's wrong."

Yeah, you are missing something here. If you want to say you're OK with us lacking integrity, that's another story. But it does lack integrity.

And no, it's still not legally allowed. But even if it was, it wasn't then, and that's what counts.

Outside Linebackers coach ...

Just screams waiting to see if Belichick leaves New England....

He gets full control…wherever he’s at. Chargers have a (proven) franchise QB in place…which was all he previously needed. Without one he’s mediocre. That could be said of everyone tho.

Any decisions are better than no decisions.

No one is talking. All fans see is us losing recruiting battles, and TD, TB, and OK safety going to Ole Miss. Optics arent good.

What made paying players morally incorrect? The NCAA says you can't? What moral authority do they have? It seems morally wrong not to pay players for the work they put in to earn other people $. Breaking rules that are only applied to some schools and not applied to others? I should have brought this up in PHIL 130.

It is totally legal now without getting into technicalities.
