re: Who has 2 or more P5 OOC Opponents on your Reg Season Sched in 2024?
Posted by MillerLiteTime on 5/11/24 at 7:56 am
UGA fans: GT is a worthless nerd school with no girls and only 4 wins over UGA this century. Their math and computer science requirements will never allow them to recruit good players again.
UGA fans: GT is a power school and UGA should be commended for playing them every year....
re: Why are there rumors about Kansas joining the SEC?
Posted by MillerLiteTime on 5/10/24 at 3:29 pm
This is as dumb as the blogger rumors of Louisville to the SEC. The days of easy invites like what Missouri, Arkansas, Rutgers, etc got are over. Clemson, FSU, and UNC are the only big names left, and of those, only UNC is a 100% invite to the Power 2. My guess is the B10 takes UVA and UNC and the S...

[quote]Brian Kelly - 255 (Citrus Bowl)[/quote]
Ouch. This is the part LSU fans can’t understand. They see the bright side of a coach with a ton of experience and overall wins. The rest of us see a coach with every opportunity to win meaningful games over a long career at ND who literally always e...

No one is questioning whether talented players will follow Cal to Arkansas. What is questionable is if old man Cal can coach them into a deep tournament team when he faces experienced rosters and better coaches. ...

[quote]i think 25 million in dead cap in year 3 isn’t great for their cap.[/quote]
Its not terrible either. And if Penix is clearly ready after year 1, and they are fortunate enough to not need Cousins, they can absorb the entire cap hit in year 2 and move on. ...

Cousins is as close to a sure thing at QB as you can find in free agency, especially for the first few years of the contract where the guaranteed money is. Opportunities to get someone like him without giving up dra...

The whole point of this thread is to show that the Falcons will never actually spend 180 million. And these are billionaire owners. All that matters is how it affects the salary cap, which is very manageable with both on the roster ...

[quote]are forgetting one important factor… Penix is like glass…[/quote]
Which is why he was available at #8. He has been completely healthy the last 2 years with massive numbers. It’s a high upside/ceiling pick without having to trade away multiple first rounders to move up into a top 3 position...

[quote]You have to hit on a top 10 pick, they should be year 1 starters, and if they aren't it's a quick way to get shite canned[/quote]
So why are we already assuming Penix won’t be a hit any more than another player they could have picked? He doesn’t have to start year 1 to be a success at a pos...

I’m slowly warming up to the Penix/Cousins situation
Posted by MillerLiteTime on 5/4/24 at 3:46 pm
Lets say Cousins plays 2 years at a similar level to his Vikings career, as expected. And let’s also assume that 2 years comfortably learning an NFL system does in fact make Penix a better QB than throwing him into the fire year 1, and he is ready to go as a playoff contending starter in 2026. Let’s...
