Just to get this straight, is the story we are supposed to go with now that it was an accidental discharge of the his weapon that caused all the ICE agents to unload on him? I mean at first it was that he approached them brandishing his gun, looking to do harm. Then it was he was resisting arrest and reached for his gun. Videos keep popping up disproving each and every one of the government statements.

If you see this as anything but a cold blooded murder, I don't know what to else to tell you.

You can be pro Trump, pro ICE, pro removal of illegal aliens, pro arresting of any dark skinned person until they can submit some paperwork showing they are either citizens or here legally. You can be pro all of that and still call this what it was. MURDER.

Been off twitter since Musk took over. Honestly, one of the best decisions I ever made. Have not missed it at all. You won’t regret it (or even miss it).

I don’t think you would want him to wait until transfer portal ends. If the head coach leaves, the portal reopens but only for kids to leave your team…In other words, you could get really screwed over.

That’s why the portal needed to be in late spring. Just do away with spring practice and allow more coach contact and practices in the summer. Solves a lot of the timing issues.

Did they overpay? I have no idea what they were paid. But what you are going to realize is that Kiffin doesn’t really recruit high school kids very hard, he doesn’t believe in it anymore. He has said repeatedly that if a kid isn’t ready to play in the first year maybe 2, they should go to a smaller school and develop, then come play for him when it is time.

This isn’t a troll. He has been (and I imagine will continue to be) very successful in doing it this way. It’s the way of the portal era and you need to embrace it. Every year, every one is a free agent. You will get some that are great additions and you will lose some you wish you didn’t (but will of course claim are addition by subtraction).

Dellenger is an LSU puppet, so now a Lane puppet. Low is probably pissed because Lane or Sexton fed him info he would put out there and probably promised him the first interview and then didn’t follow through.

He wouldn't leave then. He would try and drag it out another week. LSU would have to make a decision to keep upping the ante to try and convince him to go ahead and leave. Ole Miss would probably let it play out another week as I imagine their target is going to be playing in a championship game as well.

If I remember correctly, he wasn't announced until after the conference title game, at his request. Also, it was kept fairly quiet until then as well so as not to be a disservice to his team.

If that is what helps you get through this, then go with it.

Edit: He can still do that if that is really what he wants. Sign the extension and then have LSU pay the new buy out.

So, the pre-Saban days. I think we can all get on board with that.

They don't like to be reminded that they were very similar programs prior to Saban showing up (a large portion of their fans have trouble remembering that).

Darius Garland is great but he only played like 4 games at Vandy before getting hurt. Can't really count him.

I would say it would have to be Clyde Lee when you look at college & pro together.

I will start this by saying, don't lose 3 games.

But, I just don't understand this infatuation with South Carolina. I mean, they won their last 6 games , but it wasn't like they were really dominant and in at least 2 of them, they eked out wins. I mean they won the games and that counts for something but at no point was I just blown away by watching them (maybe the A&M game but was that the only dominant performance all year?). And it's not like Ole Miss or Alabama were really playing that poorly down the stretch, yes they both had a bad game, but they also played really well and dominated teams during that stretch too. In the case of Ole Miss, their bad game was losing on the road to a much improved Florida team with budding star at quarterback by a touchdown. Yes, Alabama laid a complete egg.

Maybe it's because nothing was expected from them? This is a team that has some pieces in place and should go big in the portal for some difference makers and really contend for a spot next year. Personally, I just didn't see it this year.

All to say, by grouping them in with Ole Miss and Alabama, I think it hurt the league's chances of getting that 4th team in. Missouri was 9-3 also and you didn't hear them mentioned. In my mind, South Carolina was more similar to them than they were Ole Miss or Alabama.

I mean someone has to lose games. Unless you really want to go NFL lite and are ok with a lot of teams going .500. Vandy gets kicked out, that is just an additional loss someone else will have to pick up.

There is an income tax in Tennessee but I wouldn't expect many Tennessee fans to realize it and it most likely wouldn't apply to any athletes though if they are smart it would. It was 4% on dividend income once it is over a certain amount, maybe $2,000 or something like that (or at it was when I was still living there but I've been gone for nearly 20 years).
