  1. Several others have already said this, but sadly I think aggy wins this one. I've watched their games and know how awful they look and that they have no business winning. They also had no business beating bama last year. This feels like one of those games where the amount of shit they've taken this week combined with Miami being grossly overrated has aggy playing with their hair on fire and able to get it done at home. It won't matter, though, as they're not going to do well in that following string of road games. They are exactly what they've looked like so far, which is dogshit, and they'll still lose a lot of games. I just think things set up well for them to get it done this week. Then they'll crow and feel good about themselves until the collapse starts the following week. I would, of course, reaaaaally love to be wrong.
  2. I'm just happy she's stopped talking about ass play.

    Because he doesn't need the money and right now he can focus on game planning defense without dealing with the press, boosters, recruiting, nil, managing team culture, and on and on. It's ultimately up to him if he wants to hc again, but for a guy who is financially made, he's almost in retirement just taking on his favorite hobby. You can tell the guy loves football and defense. Right now he's paid to think about that all day without all the other bullshit. We should all be so lucky when we're ready to wind down a bit.
  5. "QB Whisperer"
  6. That would make the most sense, but don't they have a highly ranked recruit who is buddies with King and only considering them bc he's starting visiting this weekend?
  7. I've seen some of these people in the wild, so I can promise you that you do not want that.

  9. Um...the committee hasn't ranked anyone yet. He's not wrong that aggy should be unranked, but this garbage is exactly why the committee says it waits so long to start rankings. I would place a bet that the committee never has aggy anywhere near the top 25 this season.
  10. The tweet says blocked, but unless they're counting the aggy kicker blocking his foot into the turf before he hits the ball, that is inaccurate.
  11. If we're going to need to rely on him, I'm willing to bet they didn't hurt. No one wants Card as the starter, but I'll maintain he probably has a better feel for the offense and better rhythm with his wr thanks to the extended qb battle in camp. Said another way, if you think he looks ill prepared now, it probably could have been worse. Personally I'm not too down on the guy for yesterday. He definitely didn't lose us the game, he just didn't take it over and win it, either. I think we all know Card isn't the guy to do that against Bama, but thankfully he won't have to play them again.
  12. I guess it really depends on where both Wright and Rojo are as passers. We honestly don't know, so I'd think of it like this: Unless Wright is a particularly more skilled passer, we're probably at an advantage with Rojo. Once we're relying on our 3+ string qb, the game plan should be run heavy. Rojo in as qb introduces more conflict for defending both the run and pass, which should open up more easy running and throwing lanes. In any event we should count on a stacked box, so if we want to rely on running we should add a new wrinkle to help create space. If we feel solid about Wright as a passer, maybe you do go traditional. I'm just assuming that since Card has been anything but consistent throwing the ball and Wright has never even threatened to take the backup role, possibly we have some reservations about him throwing it around. This is all assuming we need a one game fix for UTSA, also. If both Ewers and Card need to miss extended time, you probably start preparing whoever you need to operate the real offense. I'd just rather see Rojo leading a rush heavy attack for one game against UTSA than spend time trying to get Wright ready to run the full offense.
  13. I have a feeling they won't be sending the customary "couldn't believe the hospitality of aggyland" letters after this one.
  14. I'm digging deep for a silver lining, but assuming Card isn't too injured to go, it's suddenly a very good thing the qb competition went as long as it did in camp. At least he's had a lot of quality reps. I know how we all feel about him starting, but there's no way more work with the first team offense in camp hurts his preparation.
  15. I wonder if they're negotiating it. If not, you've actually just valued the next few weeks with the interim coach at around $2M each. Not sure how that works out.
  16. I love Murphy and think it's far from certain that he's never a starter even with Ewers and Manning lined up, but I really can't imagine he's ready. He was a raw project and likely doesn't know enough of the playbook at this stage. Tossing him out there could do more harm than good if he's just not there developmentally. There's a reason he's been listed 4th string despite all that talent.
  17. Rojo is the answer if Card cannot play. Wildcat with Rojo, Bijan, and maybe Keilan in the mix, too. If we're down to Wright or Murphy as our throwing options, we should be running, a lot. We have the backs and our most respected offensive leader to go out and run on UTSA. Honestly would be better for the oline and backs to get reps vs trying to get Wright or Murphy ready to carry the offense.
  18. I was glad he hit the long one at the end of the game. That was a clutch fg and should be a confidence booster. Don't feel the one earlier in the game was entirely on him. Plenty of other reasons for the loss beyond that miss, namely the 2 points erased from one of the most clear safeties I've ever seen.
  19. Is it, though? Their season is over. Sad to say only this far in, but they will not make a bowl regardless of what they do. That team is too bad. So why fire the guy a few weeks early and pay a bigger payout? The rest of this season is about finding someone who can keep developing players and recruiting at some non disaster level while finding the next guy. That timeline isn't changed at all by firing Frost in September vs October.
  20. I have no doubt they've had eyes on him from the day he was hired trying to line up a morality out if needed, but I don't think it will be the recruiting. First, they'd have to admit they cheated to land that class, and second there would be too much collateral damage coming forward about that.
  21. This is the best part of the "fire Jimbo now!!1!!1!" Texags rants. They literally can't because their lawyers actually approved these terms. Every time I read this, I imagine Jimbo's legal team had a side bet to see just how far they could push aggy with one sided terms before they'd walk away. Ends up, as with all things aggy stupidity, there was no limit.
