Is there a timeframe for CB’s to be in so that it counts? 
 

also, what kind of get does Simmons compare to for EDGE? Orakpo/Kindle/Redding?

    He could have if he isn't. Play devil's advocate and tell us why you feel about this guy's overall approach to his recruitment and how that either translates to the next level or doesn't matter.

I'd say Kindle, in terms of rankings. His frame resembles freshman Orakpo to me, though.

But I did not stay at a holiday inn last night...

Usually mid-morning for his last minute flips. Give it until 10AM CT

Ketch (yes I know) made an interesting point that he thinks Fong will not change his pick as a condition to 247 getting exclusive access to air the commitment. Seems logical.

Well ketch is a fucking moron because On3 and 247 are both streaming it.

Per Gerry who was just at Desoto campus said Claude Mathis basically said as a pass rusher/prospect in that area the only player he'd put above Colin Simmons is Myles Garrett. So we're looking at that kind of prospect.

That's a spectacular idea. I already give like $100 a month but it would be just too perfect to do another $20/month in the name of a particularly obnoxious aggy in-law

Yep it’s a perfect birthday or stocking stuffer

that must especially hurt billy seeing as smu was such a player in this recruitment.

Crazy cycle. Who would have ever put money on Mike Roach being the pied piper of 9.95ers. 

All I know is I’m not going to get shit done at work today. Eagerly anticipating the epic celebration…or even epic-er melt.

Keeping with tradition:

Mike Farrell is on XM84 right now with Childers and Neuheisel and just flat out declared that Arch Manning is having a terrible camp and is considering the transfer portal. That guy and fucking Ketchum need to have their fat asses whipped.

Mike Farrell/Geoff Ketchum vs closetojumping/SydneyCarton in a no holds barred tag team match when?

Childers and Neuheisel are the worst on 84, they always seek people that support their opinions which are usually wrong.

I still laugh at their call before the TCU/Texas game in 2018. Texas was coming of a big win against USC and TCU was coming off a close loss to Ohio State, and those two geniuses proceeded to claim that Texas didn't have the team speed to compete with TCU. That after watching both games, they both came away thinking that they were watching two different levels of football. Texas then proceeded to beat the crap out of TCU outscoring them 21-3 in the 2nd half.

That is funny. Gerry was just saying (Monday or Tuesday) that he was hearing Arch was looking really good distributing the ball.

The switching of picks right before the announcement makes the crystal ball percentages pretty useless.

We'll see, but true to my word, I said if I didn't hear enough positivity to move my pick, I would.

Of course. If you don’t hear enough to do something, you always do it.

If it's wrong, it'll just make the behind the scenes that much more interesting as we share it.

If we do not know what we’re talking about, imagine how interesting it will be when we explain everything that we were wrong about.

I don’t see where someone already said that but unlike you that is on here 24/7 I might have missed it while working.

I'm not going to give that guy clicks by linking it, but he LITERALLY got this from a screenshot of an OB post on MBG that was positing Arch is overrated. Farrell literally commented on it this morning. 

MBG is a twitter account that screenshots hawt takes from fan sites for public ridicule. He's worse than a caricature at this point. 

The "Joe Biden took away our amazing NIL program" is perfect for Message Board Genius.

Someone needs to help me understand why anyone in the industry talks to Mike Farrell. He literally can't get gainful employment anywhere in the recruiting industry, and hasn't for awhile, which is why he started his own janky website. Even his fucking kids won't talk to him, why the fuck would anyone else ask his opinion on literally anything unless it's the best brand of cheap pizza rolls, Hill Country Fare or Totino's.

That's because Gerry actually attends practice and knows people.

The fact Mike Farell is getting his information from someone who chose to go by the handle "Ben Chode" is just...chef's kiss.

Did you know that scientists aren't 100% sure what Smilodons (sabertooth tigers) used their teeth for?

Quote

Having saberteeth wouldn’t be of much benefit without a jaw able to open extraordinarily wide. That's why many sabercats also have modified lower jaw joints that allowed the jaws to swing open to clear those fangs, Tseng says. And looking beyond the skull and neck, Smilodon also had exceptionally muscular arms. Taken together, says Des Moines University paleontologist Julie Meachen, it's likely that “Smilodon used its very muscular neck and forearms to assist in the kill bite.”

Keeping prey pinned down was critical to the process. Compared to today’s lions and tigers, Tseng says, “the thin sabers suggest that, whatever the killing behavior, it was more important for Smilodon to keep the prey immobilized long enough to use the sabers so they don’t bend sideways in the direction of weakness.” This risk isn’t just theoretical: Rare specimens of Smilodon from the La Brea asphalt and other sites bear broken fangs.

Envisioning how Smilodon killed the horses and camels of its time, then, is not just about the bite. Smilodon didn't have the proportions of a fast-running cat, Meachen says, meaning that the beast “probably would stalk its prey from a hidden position, then leap out at prey and knock it off balance using its weight.” The arms came into play at this moment, grappling and pinning the victim as the cat got ready to inflict the fatal blow.

Here, however, we hit a freeze frame; there's still some uncertainty about how Smilodon would have best employed its teeth. “Either Smilodon would rip out the prey’s throat,” Meachen says, “or it would make a precise killing bite, severing the carotid artery and then it would remove its teeth and start eating.” Either way, it would have been a huge mess.

I think the funny part is that he thinks the green revolution will lower gas prices and make Texas as poor as Louisiana.

Unless it freezes, and then Texas drops to 0.
