Was messing around PM sight and started reading some twitter chatter about Corbin. Some feed was that Corbin suggested moving Marvin Zanders to the #3 QB. It said nothing could be confirmed on that but it's what sources were saying.

Then it get's more interesting. One feed said that Corbin had been reaching out to former Mizzou QB Jimmy Costello (now an Army Ranger) for advice about transitioning to Special Forces. The feed beforehand was quoting Corbin's mother commenting that Corbin has been doing FB workouts everyday and then doing Navy SEAL training for 2 to 3 hours a day also.

It appears Corbin is getting himself ready for life after CFB. If he does take the route it seems to be he's taking, I wish him all the best.

I have seen the same stuff on twitter. Apparently hes made no secret about wanting to go in to the special forces after his time at Mizzou.

The way Berkstresser was written off is kind of a shame.

Probably a much better leader than Mauk.

He had zero offensive line. Started against some really good teams, including Bama.

Cannon of an arm.

Company man.

Wish they would have used him in some way, like OU was using that big guy on short yardage.

Did Sealfit for 2 years after I was done playing.

It's 2 workouts a day. 2-3 hour commitment.

Incredible shape. Mind and body. Any task was easy. Work was nothing.

Wish him the best. That is a very honorable and noble line of work.

I wish him luck as a SEAL, his hardest obstacle will be whether his surgically repaired knee holds up. The most common injury in BUDS are knee injuries. I've served with 3 or 4 guys who got medically cut because of ACL/MCL injuries.

Wish him the best

Class act, he's a great person making sacrifices for the team. He's an excellent role model for the younger guys too. Thanks for your service Corbin, now and in the future.

2012 was a nightmare for the O-line. I'm actually surprised that we beat Arizona state and Tennessee that year.

Anyone with eyeballs could see that Berk had no time to make any decisions and had to throw the ball anywhere just to not get sacked.

To judge Berk by the 2012 season would be like judging maty on just the Georgia game.
