Quote from: Texzilla on Dec 04, 2023, 11:11 PMThat's stupidity right there.  Most nfl teams carry three RBs and don't pay any of them shit and they might last three years.  Most carry 12 DBs, with a varying split of CB and S depending on scheme and LBs.  Add three more on PS.  Thats 480 jobs that can last ten years vs 96 - 120 RBs.  He should have jumped but that's why RBs are cheap.  Love that glory.

He was determined to play RB. OU only offered him as a CB. He's an elite athlete but I don't think he has the vision to be an elite RB.

I'm on the fence about Dubinion.  He definitely seemed to fall off this season, especially towards the end, but last year and early this year I remember thinking "this kid is gonna be pretty good."  Maybe he got tired or scared of lining up behind our loafing o-line.  Maybe something else.  I dunno.  But I'm not quite ready to throw the towel at him yet.

They run like they're muscle bound, which they may be? They just about ruined Rockets career by letting him get so big. It seems Dubinion lost speed too. The freshman showed the ability to avoid the OL bust(that happened on every play this year) to actually get to where the play was being blocked correctly. The whole stand beside the QB formation is disastrous with slow running backs. Trim them back down and get a S&C coach the they're afraid of. Keep Johnson on the team and move him to FB.

This is Tom Brady talking to Lawrence Taylor on a podcast.  But man, I wish he would have called up KJ at some point and had a chat about how to play quarterback.

"The quarterbacks need to learn how to throw the ball away," Brady said. "They need to learn how to read defenses so that they can get the ball out of their hands. I always felt like my best protection was getting rid of the ball. Even in my day, it would've been hard for you to sack me just because I knew how great you were and how fast I needed to throw the ball that day."

jackson and little named 1st team all-sec by the coaches.

fletcher named 2nd team. either the guy is better than folks think or there's some pretty shitty punters in the league.

Was it based on total # of punts? If so, then I can understand it.

Little made it as a "Kickoff Specialist". I believe that is a slap in the face (even though I don't remember any of his kicks being returned). Dude can flat out kick.

Trey Knox makes 2nd Team. Probably could've used him.

Watching LT snap Theismann's leg like a twig was a great motivator to so that.

Certainly may be true.  Not saying it isn't, but it doesn't make sense.  He's never going to be a pro, although I don't think he is nearly as bad as what some of you do.  Just don't understand why he would do that.

Could he have gotten told that there is no NIL money available to him here for next season, and he's seeing what others have to offer?  You're right; he'll never make it to the NFL, but this might be his last chance to squeeze a money out of playing football.
Never squat with your spurs on!

NIL is overblown outside the key guys. Maybe he wants to play for a better team?

The white guy college athlete in Arkansas gets you a lot of that lawyer ad business and stuff like that but on the same token if your star is falling maybe it's time to thank god and tell everyone you'll always be an XYZ and then vanish to Jonesboogle.
