The last few years of lottery luck have been awful but I’m actually good with 5 this year. Same level prospect as you’d get at 1 and much more reasonable contract.
Pretty glowing recommendation from his old boss. I'm inclined to think it's going to work out nicely given Dusty's thoughtful, meticulous approach to building the roster and coaching staff so far. Camp Aldred is in session.
Speaking of bulletin board material, this seems relevant... LeSean McCoy and DeSean Jackson torched Chip Kelly on their podcast yesterday.
“I never had a coach who was scared – not even scared – I’ll say uncomfortable around Black players,” McCoy said about Kelly. “Let’s not hide it, right? Most of the players are black. The NFL is dominated by Black players.”
“He never really approached me, and was never a disciplinarian,” said Jackson on Kelly. “He would talk to me, and it was like he was scared of me… I respect certain coaches, and when you get my respect, I will run through a brick wall for you… that’s the love that you build with a coach. With Chip Kelly, I never felt that love, because he always was scared of me. How can I respect you if I feel like you’re scared of me? You never voice your opinion with me, you always ran around it.”
Then everybody had to open their mouth with a motherfuckin' opinion Well this is how we gon' do this Fuck Gene Smith, fuck Ryan Day Fuck OSU as a staff, fanbase and as a motherfuckin' crew And if you want to be down with OSU, then fuck you too
Haven't watched a ton of his film but I've been pleasantly surprised with his fluidity and skill level. He looks like an NBA player to me, there's a little Nikola Vucevic in his game.
That’s pretty amazing since it seems like in most years, our top tackle choices go to Bama or Georgia (Stanford had a run also) and ND snags the guards.
First round, nine picks too late. Chicago will end up regretting passing on him. They potentially could of come out of this draft with JJ, any receiver they wanted and a boatload of additional picks.
This makes it even more blatantly obvious why Jim was focused on leaving for the NFL, even before the nonsense of burgers and Stallions. I can't imagine him making donor calls to solicit money all day.
My buddies and I used to love betting on college basketball and the NBA back in our college days. I remember distinctly having five games that we felt super strong about, absolute locks. Three hours later, we've lost the first four and the fifth came down to the wire. We were thrilled to salvage a push with a miracle half court shot at the buzzer.
Cut way back after that but still put down the occasional bet. Had a really good NFL season in 1995 and went heavy on the red hot Detroit Lions in their playoff game vs. the Eagles. It was close early and then Philly exploded for 31 straight points en route to a 58-37 beat down. The worst part... a few days later I borrowed my mom's car to meet the bookie at a bar. Left my brand new, giant Motorola cell phone in the car, came out 20 minutes later to find the window shattered and phone gone. Had a 30 minute drive home on the freeway in freezing cold weather, it was miserable even with heat going full blast. Did some serious self reflection and vowed to never bet on sports again. Other than a bet or two in Vegas over the years, I kept the promise.
Lucky for him that Tuck’s stink is the only thing he got on him. Probably a lot of other “substances” flying around that football building, could have been much worse.
"I've never seen anybody go forward and hit somebody better. I think this guy was just made to be a fullback. That would be a great way to be described. That’s grit. Going forward and hitting somebody better than anybody I’ve ever seen. I’d like to be described that way. You could put that on somebody’s gravestone."
They need to figure out more than just the OL… the QB, the play calling, whether their charmin soft die job head coach can hack it and the overall culture of their program.
Sometimes people are just ready to be done with one phase of their life and move onto the next. The draft is just the beginning, I think many of these UFA’s will make rosters and have good careers.
You can never be set at CB. Most of the league is using 3 receivers on every play and minor injuries (hamstrings, ankles, etc.) are very common given how much running and change of direction is required.
Of course, these minor infractions pale in comparison to the achievements of (jealous little brother) Michigan State. The Spartans have been rocked by so many scandals the past 20 years that internet bandwidth prevents us from listing them all.
Great player and he deserves it but that's a lot of money given the other financial commitments they have upcoming. I'd love to see them trade Goff at the top of his value rather than extending him for an obscene amount but they're in win now mode and it seems unlikely.
In my experience, no school has done more to cooperate with the NCAA and self impose punishment than Michigan, and what has it gotten us? Banners in storage, ten years of basketball irrelevance, burgergate and the Harbaugh witch hunt.
Think of it as getting Al Capone on tax evasion. Doyel's Michigan comments are more egregious but if this is what F's him up then let justice be served.

Enjoy the day everyone and special thanks to my Mom and wonderful wife!

Well this is how we gon' do this
Fuck Gene Smith, fuck Ryan Day
Fuck OSU as a staff, fanbase and as a motherfuckin' crew
And if you want to be down with OSU, then fuck you too
Ryan Day should give this a shot. Might help him design a more creative game plan.
Lolololololololololol
Very entertaining, thank you! I'm more of a P-51 / P-38 guy personally but that's a fine looking plane.

It rubs the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose again.

Wonderful story! Condolences to your family and thank you for sharing.

Alabama, Georgia and LSU seem like they've really enjoyed the last 15 years.

Damn, that Zadina over Hughes pick still hurts.
I'd get it fast. Anything WR related seems to transfer out pretty quickly these days :)
Not quite but I've got a 3'rd grader moving up to middle school and an 8'th grader moving up to high school in a few weeks.
Moderately proud of both, some days less, some days more depending on their level of fuckery :)
Approximately 4114 people per the most recent census data.

We need to schedule Kentucky as soon as possible and crush them into submission.

Technically, before there was Saul Goodman there was Jimmy McGill.
6’3” Can he play receiver?
Depth Chart by Class Updated… needs further update.
Good list but I think you’re overly generous with Comerica. The dimensions, the scoreboard, the cartoonish tiger statues everywhere.
To paraphrase Lloyd Bensten… I knew Tiger Stadium, and you sir are no Tiger Stadium.
Threat Level Midnight.

If that happens, you’ll have a bunch of morons freaking out and wanting to drop an asterisk on the record.
Better than Goodell.
Props to Saban, he was very complimentary of Mikey 👍
Vlad will impale him down low and Wolf will eat him up on the perimeter.

Told my kids we’re moving to Minnesota.
Trump thinks he looks ridiculous.
Think of it like Milton Berle in a dick measuring contest... you only pull out enough to win.
Well that sucks.
I guess they forgot the final paragraph:
Of course, these minor infractions pale in comparison to the achievements of (jealous little brother) Michigan State. The Spartans have been rocked by so many scandals the past 20 years that internet bandwidth prevents us from listing them all.
The real questions go unanswered... does the May family enjoy subs? If so, just how crazy do they get with them?

Can any of them play outside receiver?
Vichy Warde?

Hated Scottie back in the day but can’t agree with this assessment. He was a damn good player.
Yes, I expect this to be plastered across every website for days. Too bad Gregg is occupied with other matters, I’m sure he’d love to weigh in.

Where’s the threat? Please remove us from the NCAA.
