If there is anything more pathetic than LSU assholes wanting Ole Miss to lose, it's LSU assholes wanting Ole Miss to lose while pretending they want Ole Miss to win.
horns are throwing the bank at him. they're desperate. I think they get him.
They’ll probably be fine, but LSU mortgaged their program on that guy.
I have no idea what that means.

Ha! That place is full on retarded.

Miami’s RB had something like 172 yards vs A&M


Most of them on two runs. And still somehow had fewer yards and fewer first downs.

And Reed was BAD in that game.
OM is not worse than A&M, and A&M had more yards and more first downs than Miami. Three turnovers and one missed targeting did us in.

I expect OM to win.
sidewalk, you’re right. If a line is bad, then all 5 starters must be bad. You’re smart.

Early season aggie at it again

He knows our team is average at best. He's just messing around. I laughed.
I am skeptical. In high school, the number is manageable. Multiply that number times 5, then redo all of those, every year. Seems impossible.

As colleges become more professional with more personal dedicated to scouting, colleges will no longer be as dependent on outsourcing their scouting to the recruiting services. A big part of a good coach will be just the organization of identifying talent, which seems harder at the college level than the high school level. Any idiot can notice that a man amongst boys stands out in high school. But it takes real knowledge and skill to know whether, for example, player A or player B was the problem (or the reason for excellence) on a P4 college offensive line, where everyone is 6-4 315.

I don't trust the recruiting services to have either the manpower or the knowledge to sort the wheat from the chaff on a field full of big and fast dudes, with dudes constantly needing to be re-ranked.

That's a lot of words just to complain, "we aren't getting any of the portal players we thought we were cuz all yall are cheating and paying too much."

He's coming from the worst OL I've ever seen assembled


Both the last two years, when he started on both lines?
What's interesting to me is that people are laughing and shrugging about this, but it is pretty low. Not only did the refs get it right (still shots have shown the ball still on his fingers when the light on the backboard went off), but the refs tried to help Auburn! If they don't blow the play dead to review the shot that hit the rim, that game is over.

Formby is young and has the frame to be an SEC starter.

To be blunt he was far too slow footed to play in our system at Tackle and too weak at the point of attack to be effective as a runblocker at Guard

Maybe with S/C and a different blocking scheme (downhill would probably be best) he can be more effective for you.

I don't have PFF, but I suspect he graded out this year as one of the least effective lineman of the last 15 years at Bama. Could be coaching or scheme fit, but hes certainly a work in process.


Thank you for the info. I wasn't counting Formby, as hasn't signed yet, I don't think.
Peak is who I most want, though, and he's not from a SEC program.

Heard and Formby are two more SEC starters that could be at A&M next year.

Destroying our offensive line and then saying, "I want that for me," was certainly a choice.


That's only two of the starters from other programs that we have signed, with more on the way.

It'll be interesting to see how our line comes together next year with Cushing coaching them up.
