  1. LOL at this statement, since Warehime was fired over the weekend while Drayton and Hand were announced as retained.
  2. If Coleman is the guy at WR, we better hire an elite recruiter at TE and at least one on the defensive side of the ball. Most staffs need at least a couple guys that can be assigned to cutthroat recruitments regardless of position. We had one guy like that in Beck, and he's gone. If Coleman is the guy, then Herman's failure to demote Mehringer and promote Coleman mid-season speaks volumes.
  3. Pretty sure he had to sit out a year.
  4. TIL Demons are orcs that ride velociraptors through hell.
  5. And only minutes from Silsbee!
  6. ...it's a post route.
  7. The pickings on Youtube are extremely slim, based on my very quick look. If you find a better repository, let me know.
  8. Reading the phrase "Power zone" literally made me bleed uncontrollably from my ears, eyes, nose, and anus. So thanks for the ebola.
  9. more like Billy Errbody, amirite?
  10. Ehlinger was v bad at that throw to Duvernay in 2018. He was significantly better throwing the post to Eagles this year.
  11. I just spent 45 minutes watching 2011 and 2012 Shippensburg football videos on youtube, to make sure I could see "pure, uncut Yurcich" untainted by Gundy or Day/Wilson. My observations are: (1) The way oSu ran zone read appears to be Yurcich's scheme: Here's oSu running it a few years ago: And here's Shippensburg: It's obviously a different screen (bubble vs. a comeback screen). But it's a similar concept in both instances, and it's run from trips in both instances. (2) Yurcich runs (or at least ran) Power Read I've always wondered why we didn't run more power read with Ehlinger, as it seems like a great fit for his skill set. As far as I can recall, we haven't seen much of it since Sam and Toneil Carter showed great promise with it against KSU in 2017. There will be no question that Yurcich at least has power read in his playbook: (3) He likes QB runs in the red zone/short yardage situations It was always the case at oSu that when they needed tough yardage on 4th down or in the red zone, they would usually run the ball with the QB (usually subbing in JW Walsh for Mason Rudolph). It was already the case back in 2011/2012 that Yurcich liked running the QB in those situations. Here is QB power on 3rd and 1 in the red zone: (4) He likes to run complimentary pass concepts I didn't gif all of these because #lazy. But in the Shippensburg v. Shepherd game from 2012, Yurcich called some combination of post/wheel routes like 5 or 6 different times. The first time, he ran from a 4 wr (2x2) set. Both outside receivers ran posts, and both inside receivers ran wheel routes. The QB hit one of the wheel routes for a huge touchdown down the sideline. The next time they ran the play, the outside WRs both ran posts, while the inside WRs ran comebacks off of their initial wheel routes. The QB hit the same WR on the comeback for a big gain. The next time they ran the play, they ran it as originally run, and the QB hit another wheel route for a big gain. The next time they ran the play, they ran it with the comebacks, but the safety attacked the comeback, leaving the post wide open in the middle of a the field for a huge touchdown. (5) Expect to see a lot of mesh and shallow cross This won't be anything new. Mesh was a staple the past several years, and Texas has come and gone from leaning on the shallow cross at various points in time (almost as if the playcaller forgets we have the play). But it was very effective at times the past few years.
  12. And your mom wasn't prepared for my circumference, either. (Are we still doing physics jokes?)
  13. I don't think we'll see Smith at Z. I think he'll be the starter at H next year. And I think they'll leave Eagles at Z, because he's a perfect fit for this Yurcich favorite.
  14. Username is ironic.
  15. No. But Brennan Eagles might be.
  16. I'm not saying that we should compare Tylan Wallace in 2018 under Yurcich vs. Tylan Wallace in 2019 without Yurcich, but I'm not not saying that, either.

  18. Lloyd's isn't an "insurance company." It's a market where member syndicates divvy up portions of risks of various types via subscriptions.
  19. Holy shit i want both of those guys.
  20. Duvernay was pretty good this year.
  21. Given the new transfer portal rules, I'm not sure it would work out, since Players only love you when they're playing.
  22. Why don't you ask him if he's going to stay?
  23. Confirms that we're both geniuses.
