Do y’all realize that Ryan Williams was the youngest guy on the field in just about every game he played this season not to mention he was the youngest one in the ALL-STAR game and he OUTPLAYED every single one of them.


What? He was a junior. He was probably as old if not older than roughly half of the guys he played against this year.

The vast majority of guys he'll be playing against will be college So/Jr/Sr. It's not weird to think a HS Sr could struggle physically against someone that's been in a college S&C program for 2+ years. Speed is one thing but WRs have to block too

Freddie Roach and Tommy Rees are being pursued by South Alabama.

If Roach leaves we should take a look at Eric McDaniel (Troy).

Guess the report that Kirby hired Rees was false?

This.
This is what I’m doing. It’s literally the name of the website we are on. You however seem soft as Charmin. I don’t complain all the time. I defended Milroe constantly on here. I am opinionated and I don’t usually back down from a disagreement.

You are speaking far beyond his depth.

I was thinking about explaining it to him, but you've gone and saved me the time. Thank you.

I like you, Alfie. :no homo - not that theres anything wrong with that - but definitely no homo:

I hope you're not still angry at me for yesterday. I, like you was so worried about the DC hire, and Kirby having 16 CO DC's I actually went as far as to recommend we pump CNS full of deer antler spray and lock his arse in the DC booth for a year against his will. I apologize for that.

The problem is, it’s not usually this. It’s usually the same culprits who are unrelentingly negative about everything. I dont know what all youve said on thr subject since Deboer was hired, so not necessarily directing at you. But the jryanw guy has only been negative about everything over the past 3-4 days. I just dont understand why some people are fans or have a hobby that seems to be a net negative on their happiness. Seems silly to me.

Hahaha.
I was just fricking with you since you deleted my thread. I’ll probably never let that go(in a fricking with you way) I honestly couldn’t care less what people on a message board think about me.

Not too bad. We get rid of some of that if he takes a job in college right?

#Facts. We traditionally haven’t had an issue putting weight on guys that need it though. If he comes here he’ll be good.

Or you could do what I am doing and take a wait and see approach to everything. On the face of it, Kalen DeBoer is a slam dunk hire. It's very difficult to poopoo the hiring of a man who is a combined 104-12 in his time as a college football coach. We were always going to lose players to the portal due to the fact that some of them were loyal only to Saban and not to the school or the program.

Everything I have seen so far from his hires I have liked. I would have loved to have retained T-Rob but I am not disappointed with who they hired in his stead. I would also love to retain Caleb Downs but if he chooses to follow T-Rob to Georgia then so be it. At the end of the day, it's the results on the field and not offseason championships that decide who gets bragging rights.
