  1. I can agree if he really has to cut that much weight. To be honest, I've never believed the weights (or heights) they list are all that accurate. Stemming from my college days and interacting with guys in classes that were clearly not what was listed. My initial reaction was it would be good from the balance and leverage side as you mentioned also.
  2. I don't think DL will care how much he suggests or hints things to them, they'll still sack him.
  3. From what I have heard, NIL is nothing fully guaranteed. This doesn't seem like a question, if you can be a 1st round pick, you absolutely go.
  4. One of the worst artists in the history of music
  5. I was shocked to see Nebraska a road favorite in a conference game. Still too soon for that I see.
  6. It's not hard to say that, it is just wrong. You just answered your own question.
  7. Fair, but it was far from a complete year. Call 2021 year 1.5 and 2022 2.5, but we agree that he showed progress every year. I was just pushing back against the perception that it took him until year 3 to show his chops, and that isn't true.
  8. Adrian had a better arm, Taylor was a better runner. Put AM on that same team and the results would be largely the same if I had to wager. These questions always make me chuckle because a lot of it can be outside the control of the QB to what legacy they leave. Adrian had PTSD after 2018 from playing behind these lines, Taylor had great lines, on and on.
  9. So legitimately 2021 was year 1 for him. Covid was a lost year, and his year 2 was 10-3 and year 3 was 13-0. Still a case of good coaches are on the up by year 2, and sure as hell don't take until year 4 or 5 to show progress!
  10. For the ones who actually qualify yes, but it has been APR to fill extra slots for as long as I can remember. Nebraska got in this way in 2015.
  11. Let's be real, cheer the fans for that one, not any administrator. Kudos to the AD for actually doing it but no other place on Earth has fans that show up 92k strong for a women's sport period, let alone a regular season match.
  12. Seriously. I am a Bronco fan, and had to deal with Gordon fumbling every 5th snap for us a couple years ago, but now get to root for Samaje. Continued to deal with those feelings recently.
  13. The stuff between the ears doesn't necessarily become super easy, but I would argue the physical part is quite different. It should be much easier to elude a rush against South Dakota State. There's a reason those kids aren't starting for Ohio State. He can win being more physically gifted at a lower level is what I am getting at, making the mental part less important.
  14. Hey now. Didn't he throw a touchdown to beat Nebraska? I was in the stands for that glorious completion, his only of the game. In all seriousness, you only know that a handful are really good college QBs based on production they've already had, and those guys will be fought over heavily. Some might have been products of their old systems however, or of their old coaching staffs. Less experienced transfers might flourish in a new setting, and with new coaching. We basically can't predict what will happen.
  15. It happens much slower though, that's the idea. No guarantee of success, but you have to admit it's easier in FCS or D2.
  16. I think he knows HH is not a QB, and he tells him that. I think Purdy stays and gets a legit shot, with competition from a portal QB and a freshman. Purdy still has potential and has the tools to succeed.
  17. I'd expect that kind of a response from Frost's ghost. The buck stops with the HC, period. No more finger pointing with our HC, just the thumb.
  18. I was like "who is the worst???" Then I remembered.
  19. I can see that, but that team specifically doesn't call runs for QBs. That's the reason I asked if you watched them much. I like it, I'd rather not have a QB run outside of a scramble or maybe a sneak as you mentioned. Always ends in them being knicked up late in the year.
  20. Why are you surprised by that? Don't watch many Ohio State games I take it?
  21. Mods don't listen regardless even though other message boards do this routinely.
