Honestly I think Some of the narrative that was used against Carthon was somewhat reinforced in that interview........... And I was completely on the incompetent ownership/front office train....... Now I'm not so sure after that interview.

I hesitate to ask... what part of the interview reinforced the narrative?

That he's a family man and values his role as a father and when traveling with the team he reads books?

They're also #3 in NET.

No metric uses AP rankings, more fluid and reasoned than that.

I'm guessing 5 Quad 2 wins helps them, as do margins and very close losses. Losing by 30 will haunt us a bit, but hey we're still #4 in NET and that's the standard regardless.

0-3 against Quad 1 though

We’re 4-1, and we’re 1-0 against Quad 2

So a 3 loss team that’s 5-3 against Quad 1 & 2 should be above a 1 loss team that is 5-1 against Quad 1& 2?

It's just optics. You have a historically bad loss, you're going to drop more than you probably deserve. Not saying I agree, but that's always how it's going to work.

If Duke loses by 30 to someone, they're going to drop a lot too.

What bothers you more, the heat or the cold. . . or neither? I don't mind the cold once I'm actually moving around. . . but at least with the cold you can put some extra layers on to warm up or use a gas heater. If it's blazing hot, you're just gonna be hot, 😂 . . . anyway, construction sites seem to be colder or hotter than it actually is for some reason. I think it's a brain trick. When you go in a building, your mind is conditioned to think it's supposed to be cooler or warmer than outside.

If I’m working with my hands, the cold bothers me the most because it’s hard to work with gloves on your hands. If I’m doing a lot of walking, or crawling, or climbing the cold is the best. I really hate the cold in general though. Winter is lifeless and sad to me. I enjoy wearing less clothes, sunshine, grilling, warmth, skin tone, and vitamin D. And the good health that comes with heat. In winter I just drink and eat too much. Overindulge.

I can't argue at all if that's what they wanted. I'm in their corner on most of it. I'm undecided on the contract demands.

0 evidence of contract demands as far as I'm concerned.

More like "Hey coach, what's the plan for this offseason and next year? Would love to see upgrades to the offensive line and passing game." and bored media members turn that into "Iamaleava's are demanding . . .!"

He’s not as good as he thinks he his and differently not worth what he’s getting imo.

Well you're just a ray of sunshine this offseason aren't ya?

Not sure there's many freshmen in the country we could've thrown out there this year that could have lead this team to a win over Bama and get us into the CFP. Yes, the defense helped us win a lot of games, but Nico made a lot of clutch plays, incredible throws, and didn't turn the ball over like most freshmen do.

He's not just getting paid for his production.... he's getting paid for his potential. And he has the potential to be one of the best QBs that's ever worn orange.
