Chat Recap!

Haven't done a chat in a few weeks and figured now might be a good time as we're still heavy into the transfer portal recruiting and as the early enrollees will be arriving on campus relatively soon as the semester starts on Jan. 17.

Drop any questions below and I'll be around all day answering whatever y'all got!

The Magic and Mythology of Joe Burrow’s Deep Passing Game

Really well written story worth reading on Burrow.

SEC Sark. 13-12

In his first two years leading the Texas Longhorns ,former Alabama offensive “genius”,
Steve Sarkesian ,sports a 13-12 record in the weak Big -12 including going 2-7 vs ranked opponents

Its been two years but Horn fans are already growing discontent after watching first year coaches like Sonny Dykes and Brian Kelly have fabulous seasons

Longhorn faithful have to be wondering what’s Sarkesian going to do when the join the SEC and face ranked teams almost every week

RECRUITING Good for TCU...

I wanted to get behind the under-dog narrative, but they just made it too hard. Sonny Dykes snide little comment about the SEC taking a week off late in the season rubbed me the wrong way and once I started seeing all the TCU billboards around town tonight, that was the final straw. They're using their title game to recruit Baton Rouge? Screw 'em. They never should have been there and they showed it tonight. Georgia beat them worse than every single SEC team they played this year... and despite the announcers trying to put lipstick on a pig, this is not some exceptional title team. Not knocking UGA in the slightest, they're a beast, sure, but I don't think that this year's team beats last year's UGA team, 2020's Bama team or LSU's 2019 team.
