Speaking of statcast measurements.

He didn't suck obviously.

But his backups averaged barely less than he did.

It was their OL more than anything.

Emmitt and that OL was one of the beginning points of GMs realizing RBs weren't as valuable as once thought...compared to OLs and passing. Still took them years to shift their actions.

No, it was far before that. Changes to the rules made RBs less valuable, strict pass interference, protecting the QBs, allowing OL to be more handsy (hold). It was a lot harder and more risky to throw the ball prior to the 80's, it was saved for a last resort on 3rd down or gimmick offenses.
The first team to really recognize the future were the Chargers under Don Coryell, nobody threw the ball like they did and now that is standard practice, in fact they may be considered conservative by today's standards. That is the time when Jack Tatum became a villain when before players like him were the norm. I find that hardly anyone really remembers what football used to be like, today they would not recognize the game.

I'd smoke the **** out of a brisket in these bad boys.

Aidoo is softer than Charmin TP after being soaked in water for 2 weeks, any time he goes against someone 6’10+ he folds hardcore. I hope our fans and student section makes Aidoo’s life hell when Arky plays at Tenn next year.

I have an army buddy that is a huge Arky fan. He texted me, "Thanks for your contribution to the Arkansas basketball team." I basically told him this. Good player that disappears when things get tough. Well, now he can disappear for another team.

Those things are amazing.

And that is why LeBron will never be remotely close to being considered a GOAT. The best don't make excuses.

When they started changing all the rules to favor the offense in the passing game. When those guys you named used to play, defenses could manhandle wide receivers, so the running game was more crucial back then.

Exactly. Dan Fouts says hi.

 

[GoodTimeVol]

With Conyers leaving do we have another scholarship to use in the transfer portal? LAVol? Anybody?

 

[rikberry31]

After Peyton. Pat Ryan started more than anyone else or was it Heath?

Condredge started in the CFL and made their HOF. And he ten extra yards to deal with and only had three downs to do it They did give him an extra player though.

That’s all lebron does. Or he says “at the end of the day, it’s just basketball.” Meanwhile, Kobe and Michael would’ve died on the court

Since he transferred to another SEC school, does he have to sit out a year?

 

[Devo182]

Are we going to discuss Lebron's Lakers going 1-4 against the Nugget? I still question how some see him as the Goat.

Damn good series.

If just talking LBJ, the dude is almost 40. MJ never saw a winning record at this age.

Jokic the best there is right now.

Update (also posted in baseball forum): Texas fans have entered the “Hire Vitello” discourse.

Unsurprisingly, they also believe he would never say no to them. Texas, like LSU is one of the only teams that would scare me if they called. But that’s for the same reasons LSU scared me in 21. Unlimited tradition, money and resources.

Knowing a little more about Tony’s personality from then to now, though. I think his unwavering loyalty is primarily why he’d say no, as they could probably outspend us if they wanted. But also I think the prospect of being the guy who built a program that will surely eventually have facilities, streets or even the stadium named after him (if this trajectory continues) is more appealing than just being another in a long line of great coaches at Texas. Especially now that the program is built and he only has to maintain it from here.

You can tell Texas Augie Garrido is not there anymore and they ain't what they used to be. Actually aTm is a more attractive job than TU now.

The cutoff is tomorrow (to enter the portal) so shouldn't be an issue.

I'm not 100% sure but I doubt he would have went to Arkansas if he would've had to sit.

Tennessee Baseball back in action tonight vs Lipscomb on SEC Network+ at 6:00 p.m.

It was the best series so far even tho it was 4-1. All close games. Lakers prob should have won it 4-1 themselves. They lead every game by double digits if I'm not mistaken?


I know they led a ridiculous amount of total time. Think Nuggets led a total of like 45 mins total all 5 games? That's crazy. LeBron did his thing and carried all he could. Yall LeBron haters just wanna overlook it. AD helped for the most part. The rest of the team blew balls like they normally did throughout the season. Reaves showed up last 2 games. DLo had his moments. The rest might as well stayed at home every game. NOONE is gonna beat the Nuggets with 2 players showing up. Not to mention Lakers coach wouldn't be a good high school coach much less an NBA coach. But yea its LeBrons fault. He should have scored 45-50 instead of having 30pt, 11assist, & 9 boards and 4 steals at 39 yall wild. MJ, Kobe, & LeBron all great players in their own way

Nuggets are a great TEAM that play very well together & have a good coach. They'll be a hard out. I'll take em over the Wolves in 6
