Poor guy can never handle being wrong lol Baker sucks. End of storyWasn’t Beckham a one year failure there? Landry has never approached what he did in Miami. Don’t remember this great OL…mebbe because I don’t recognize any of the names after Joe Thomas retired…which was before Mayfield. Once again, inferior coaching reigns supreme…*CoachingDown
lol
Thank you for that explanation. I had never taken any kind of pain medication before that incident, and yes they intended for me to be on those medications for the rest of my life. I was wheelchair bound and medically there were no indicators that my condition would ever get better. I was 40 at the time. (I would eventually be on that dosage for 4 years in which they gradually increased the strength of the fentanyl patch)
I was at Walmart with my family about 2 years later, in my wheelchair. I ran into the father of the girl who I took to senior prom, who is a minister. He prayed over me in the middle of Walmart and proclaimed that I would get better and walk again. I am a man of faith, so I believed him.
Over the next two years, my body started making progression that none of my specialists could explain medically. They asked me what I was doing, but I had no answer as to anything I was doing differently. I was able to start walking again for short distances. I ran into the minister again. This time at Kroger. I told him what had happened since we last saw each other because he noticed that I wasn't in my wheelchair. He prayed over me again and said that I wouldn't need the pain medication anymore. That's when I decided to leave pain management.
I still live with chronic pain, but on most days my pain levels are equal to or slightly better than they were on heavy daily pain medication. I occasionally have periods of severe pain that basically have me bedridden, but that isn't the norm now.
What about regenerative tx? BMAC/PRP? Thoughts?
Thing is, when TCU is clicking, they can put up some serious points. UGA's defense may be too good though. I'd say you're right, it's more likely to be a 14+PT victory for UGA. I hope not. I hope TCU is prepared and lights them up.Thoughts on tonight?
UGA when everyone is watching:
49-3 vs Oregon
42-20 vs Florida
27-13 vs Tennessee
50-30 vs LSU
when nobody is watching:
26-22 vs Missouri
16-6 vs Kentucky
TCU has that magic with the Hypnotoad.
I think we can all agree that TCU is not OSU, in terms of roster, especially on both lines.
Spread at -12.5 right now, but it's been hovering around -13 +/- .5
I don't know how TCU is going to keep it close. It's true that their QB has been able to do some great things, but UGA's front 7 are going to maul TCU. UGA's run game will probably lean on TCU's defense, which does not have the athletes or depth of OSU.
Going to look more like the SEC Championship game, methinks. Comfortable 2 or 3 possession win. I could see this being an 18 or 20 point game late and TCU scoring a feel-good TD against UGA's backups with like 30 seconds left.
I’ve heard Tenn and UF are the ones pressing hardest for him. I think it’s mainly between those two. Both schools feeling okay for him. I’ve still been digging. NIL seems to be a big factor for Campbell
Have been kinda leaning that way (to Vols for NIL), but haven’t gotten anything solid here during my digging around. Campbell hasn’t had much to say, so it’s left people guessing
There is an art to being a mod on those sites. NIL is a new out for them when their predictions are wrong. We've seen other boards do that too.Funny that they're setting it up as he only picks us for NIL.
Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson won Super Bowls over 20 years ago….. the game has changed a lot since then…. The closest has been the 49ers but it’s extremely difficult to win it without a franchise qb in todays game.Rumors are Tannehill to be traded, that's the only way I see them moving on from him.
Truthfully "super bowl winning QB" means nothing. Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson won SBs yet Dan Marino never did. Vrabel can coach the hell out of his team and despite all their obstacles with injuries and a poor GM he's proven that his teams will play good to great defense and if he can land a good OC again they'll be competitive and whoever is playing QB for them will be a potential SB winning QB. At least why Vrabel is the HC you likely won't see a true franchise level QB playing for the Titans (like a Brady, Manning, or Mahomes type). Rodgers would be the closest possibility and I still think that's a long shot.
But if you look at Tannehill with Miami and Tannehill with the Titans it's a huge difference, and that's the beauty of having an elite RB and great defense to take pressure off you. So I think Carr would also play better here than he has for the Raiders and he's a realistic option to land in free agency that wouldn't break the bank.

I'm higher on Tennessee next season than all of my colleagues and that's okay — I put the Volunteers inside the top 15 to begin the 2022 season, too. This offense replaces a couple key playmakers, including Jalin Hyatt and Hendon Hooker, but new-look Tennessee did take Clemson in the Orange Bowl with Joe Milton at quarterback. He'll be on the preseason Heisman shortlist next season given his talent level under center. Josh Heupel's program will hope to continue its surge nationally, but will be the hunted this time around.

I have a friend who's in local Nashville radio off air. According to people they know the reason they cut to the QB's parents so often is they prepared so much fluff in anticipation of a Clemson route and couldn't run it. They didn't consider that Tennessee was going to handle them and hadn't prepared enough pro Tennessee material.
I just thought that was interesting and seemed to mesh with your overall point.
I would look for possibly two more this week in addition to the three announcing today. Likely the BYU CB and a TE.
(No inside info…just seems to be the way the tea leaves are reading.)
We get all 3 today, then we're over the 85 headcount I believe (86 total), so we're quickly getting to a point where we'll have to see a one to one additional to subtraction ratio going on.
That's assuming the guys like D. Davis and Ku. Garland remained on full scholarship after earning them as walk ons. I honestly not 100% sure about how that works.
2023 has been circled for Penn State for a few years now. Florida State was trending well last year and return a lot of their difference makers.What am I missing here with FLST and PennST at 6 and 5 spot? I guess someone could somehow justify Penn, but how is FLST all of a sudden surging into the mid top 10?
