I think sometimes folks don’t think straight in high stress situations. Maybe she just wanted him gone - not good thinking.

I remember when I was a Freshman at UT, Police Officers came to all the girls dorms and offered basic self-defense training. (I think there’d been a rash of rapes and almost rapes) No 1 was don’t try to use a weapon that can be used against you, because it will be. They talked about how to always carry our keys in our hands with one sticking out between our ring and middle finger to be used to poke into an eye if grabbed. Also taught us how to break a one hand wrist grab, etc. The number one thing we were told was travel with another and always, always (alone or with others) be acutely aware of your surroundings. And Run Away.

One of my really good friends took some self defense courses…. I told her that there was no way that would work…. She told me to grab her from behind…. All she did was squirm for thirty minutes and while stepping on my foot…. She finally said…. Ok, it doesn’t work. I worry about my daughter a lot…. I go over safety tips with her all the time…. It’s a dangerous world out there.

I think we may look to the portal after the season for LB help. Banks, Mitchell, and Page are gone after this season. Not sure where Beasley stands on eligibility, but I think he has one more year after this. Lose Mohan and that leaves Garland, Herring, Perry, and the two current commits. I'd love to add another commit at the position, but I also could see the coaches look for a more experienced player from the portal.

Best bet is a kick to the nuts and run.

Awesome post. Thank you for the explanation! Makes sense. Wonder why Tennessee prefers the 1-7 vs. the 3-6?

That's what I can't figure out either. I think 3-6-6, especially as that projection has it laid out, would be a win for us.

You let her squirm for 30 minutes? That’s not wrestling

Our beautiful girl Molly lost her battle with old age today. I tear up when I see her chasing a frisbee somewhere in doggy heaven now.

Sorry for the loss of your four-legged family member

So… nothing to actually address fake injuries during the game. F’ing ridiculous.

Buncha morans on here figured out how to address it in an ethical, equitable, and objective way fairly easily. You telling me the NCAA couldn’t come up with something in an entire year since these incidents? Or didn’t WANT to come up with something.

Alex, I'll take AL (SEC office owner) and GA (NCAA board member) think they will need to start faking injuries for $1000.

Banks at #8 (per Farrell)

Thanks, Doc! My doggy heaven comment came from the movie "A Dog's Journey". Have you ever watched it? OMG, what a tearjerker!

“A Dog’s Purpose” is also a good one.

Not that bad is different from good.

I liked it, certainly much more marvelish than Moon Knight. Moon Knight was completely disjointed, all over the place.

I would put it in a solid Tier 2 Marvel show. Loki, WV, are two top tiers.

There are some beautiful places in New Mexico. The area around Ruidoso is awesome. I can’t say enough about Philmont. Scout camp that’s 250 square miles of mountains and valleys. Beautiful! Blessed to be able to backpack there for a week (lucky to survive a 60 mile hike with a 60+ lb pack at age 56)

Also, going in the other direction from Sante Fe toward Durango. Blue Hole in Santa Rosa is a blast, Great Sand Dunes national park, Sante Fe itself, plus a lot of other places prolly that I've never seen. I sure there are places in the south. Also, fresh roasted green and red chile by the bucket load.

If this plays out, we will look much better come 4th quarter in tight games!

You held her for 30 mins? That’s a really long time

I may have over exaggerated the time…. She just tried all the things she was taught and then gave up…. The guy was a crook teaching them a bunch of nonsense.

I heard a Rogan podcast where he was calling out some of those self defense classes

It was ridiculous and the instructor does it in slo-motion allowing her to break free…. Giving them a false sense of security that it would work.

it had to be the Detroit Self Defense guy. He had some ridiculous videos going around.

Imagining someone standing and struggling for 30 minutes, while someone else hugs them from behind, is cracking me up. No talking, just struggling noises, occasionally stomping on the other person's foot. For 30 minutes.
