everyone: Look at those dipshits shitting themselves again.

aggy: Stop looking at us!

Same oc that turned down the golden dome and pedo state.

Perhaps it's a sign that Elko intends to build an offense in a different mold than the previous rosters and even some of the current one. I'm guessing it isn't a one year project.

You might be right, but that narrative is not the same one that was the basis for the HC hire; the 2022 recruiting class will be in their 3rd year and were expected to compete for a NC in 2024.

The K-State model starts w/ middle of the pack guys that grow into 4th or 5th year players. Their OL is made up of 4 RS-SR, a Jr, and a TE that's a RS-JR. That requires continuity. A power, run first offense does not really fit A&M's roster, certainly not the OL.

Texas A&M attempting to hire Kansas State’s OC should put to bed any notion that our primary objective is beating Texas.

Last year we had 10 4*s on the roster at OL. tu had 7 plus 2 5*. Pretty similar.

Well, you're the only one talking about Texas here, but their starting line for 2023 had a SR, JR, JR, and 2 5 start So on it - and So and RS-Fr filling out the 2 deep. Next year they will likely have 4 juniors and a Sr starting.

ATM had a bunch of RS-Fr bouncing around (check the season snap counts), and has the oldest player (Robinson) going NFL and 3 more going to the portal already (2 of the older guys - aka soph, and a 12 game starting fr in 2023). Do you expect the new coach to make a few RS-Soph and RS-Fr into a great line? Esp when your higher ranked guys like Fatheree (injured knee) and Dewberry have been losing snaps, and a starter like Bisontis is bailing. Your only Junior (Aki) has gotten maybe 20 snaps in 2023? Where are the contributing juniors and seniors? IMO that's a multi year rebuild, not coaching up the existing bench. To each their own.

that was the last time anyone has ever mentioned concussion with the kid and that was several years ago. You are making stuff up.

So we're acting like the Ole Miss game when his head bounced off the ground on the last drive and he missed the Florida game with "the flu" wasn't a thing?

Twitter vid: head bouncing off the ground



Hope he gets the flu shot next year if he is running 10-15 times a game.

Does any offense work with a terrible OL and injured QB? Gonna have to upgrade the line specifically in the portal.

---

That was last year's narrative also. Is the portal a viable strategy for rebuilding multiple positions on OL?

K State was 9th in OF+ this year.

Their talent composite is in the 60s.

Klein is a legit hire.
