Being that we are going to take 3-4 more players, you could lump number 1 through 4all together. 5 through 7 are backups for 1 through 4. I still question if I would want Njoku over Houston. But....I'll say, I'll be happy with either one of them.

I'm not a huge NFL guy and don't really have a team I root for every year. So, to an extent, I agree. But, I'm just tired of them and ready to see someone else in the SB and winning it. I was really rooting for the Chiefs because I love watching their offense with Mahomes.

I think what you'll find is that the attrition rate for this class will be very similar to the national average. I can't remember what that is, but the average attrition rate is higher than a lot of people think. Where I think the staff will make the biggest difference is that they will be able to motivate and develop the top of the class better than previous staffs.

Like you, I think we could get maybe three of these. Mao, Parker and Njuko or Houston. As for the class, it's a nice class. I think we have some really good players in it and, like I've said before, it's nice to be ending it with highly sought after players instead of guys we scramble to find and nobody has ever heard of them before. The class in the grand scheme of things though is a little better than our average class, but not that much. I wouldn't quite say it's an amazing class....but a nice class. To me, an amazing class will be when we start gettin the majority of recruits 4 star and up.

I saw something the other day that is so true. One major reason why Trump has not been able to renegotiate anything is because nobody trusts him. So, now we have that he discontinued these programs like DACA immediately when he took office. He then turns around and claims the Dems don't care about DACA people because they won't do anything to protect them. He has not offered anything to protect them. NOW....he's in day 31 of the shut down, his popularity is going in the tank with anyone who isn't a blind Trumpee. He then comes out and makes an offer to give DACA people three year of protection if he gets his 51 billion for the wall. Now...hmmmm....three years. Gee.....isn't it interesting that the time runs out BEFORE he would leave office (if he gets reelected). The guy can not be trusted to feed a cat....let alone do something to help other people.

You're smart. Now, if your employer offers a pension and you are either stuck or really don't want to get a new job, then I don't see a reason not to enroll in it. However, you should NOT be relying on it as you sole source of income as a retiree.

It's clear that there are lots of lessons to be learned from this entire episode. Unfortunately, nobody is talking about the people who initially started this entire thing.....the "Black Israelites"? Never heard of them, but the video I saw this morning of how this started, puts the entire blame on them. Now, the kids should have just walked away and ignored them. But, without adult supervision, immaturity took over. Not sure quite how the native American elderly man is to blame in all of this.

This sucks.

Even if we figured how to take all of Bivens, Mao, Parker, Njoku and Houston....we still only jump Stanford to be at #19. So, our class rank is pretty much what it’s going to be. Fyi.....I dont expect to take all of these.

So now Vietnam veterans are getting eye rolls. Trump supporters are so precious. I feel eel like this board is inhabited with a middle schooler.

this is cool.

I’m now understanding why I’ve never watched this game.

If it’s your only choice, it’s what you have to do. Your employer should be the one offering offering something different.

As long as the pension keeps getting funded or tax dollars to fund it don’t dry up or people horribly mismanage it. Your putting a large part of your retirement in trusting someone else for the rest of your life. That at doesn’t even start to discuss the fact that the tax payers would now be on the hook for funding this and many other retirements for the rest of your life. Pretty bad system.

Yeah.....let’s make America great again.

It appears to me, Buzz Feed was very irresponsible by running this story. Not all media needs to be condemned because of this like dear president trying to do. But, Buzz Feed is probably getting a lot of what they deserve.

Ypc does matter....as long as it’s put in context with number of carries.

That only works if a) the company doesn’t go broke. B). The company manages it right. (See OPS) c). The company is honest. D). The company doesn’t have to have a major downsize. Absolutly pathetic form of retirement. A 401k company contribution does the same thing you want (company money given to you). Without the fear of all the rest.

Hey, I've always been a huge proponent of pulling back from being the world police. But, if we are actually going to pull back from aid to developing countries, then we need to make sure we are replacing the resource we are getting from that country. And.....you don't want the same situation where we have in Honduras where we don't help out......and then we end up with refugees at our borders. Sorry, I'm not in favor of telling families to just so pound sand when that family is just trying to survive......especially when their problems are partly because of us.

I always did one of these when Iowans would complain about driving across Nebraska. Now, I always do one of these when Nebraskans complain about driving across Iowa.

Hey now...He claims he never said that.
