Ruston 90 was super impressive in person. Best looking HS team I’ve ever seen in person by a mile.

re: Jimbo 44-24 at A&M. Sumlin was 51-26 there before he was fired.

It was a lot cheaper to fire Sumlin.

re: Is Lindsey the DL coach next year?

Hmm, elite DL coach and recruiter. I know a guy that is available and wouldn’t cost much since we’re already paying him…..

re: If you're going to beat Alabama, this year is the best opportunity a team will ever get!

Teams will go 0-fer the week after they play Bama. Bama is going to play murder ball this year

Zero point zero.

You’re not in the SEC yet.

Awesome documentary. Never felt like he could play QB in the NFL. He was Fran Tarkington on a Tom Brady League. Game is too structured and defenses are too fast. Always wanted him to just be Johnny Football, have a manning-like camp and just exist in a fairy tale type of life. Loved him so much as a freshman and hated what he became as a sophomore. Joy was just gone. Totally feel like I understand it now.

Just be Johnny Football and it will work out for you young man.

Football drives the bus. Necessary sacrifice. Won’t be forever. Enjoy the women’s team in the meantime.

Recruiting Bias

re: Why do y’all care so much about stars and recruiting rankings?

Posted by MandevilleSlim on 12/22/22 at 9:40 pm

When a kid is ranked 5 stars they have a real chance to be special

Harold Perkins
Will Campbell

Might have heard of those two guys.

re: Bone, Watts, and Wiltfong all on the Bama train now for Ricks. I hate Nick Saban

Posted by MandevilleSlim on 12/22/22 at 10:09 am

So LSU saw his a a difference maker and probably day 1 starter and Bama sees him as a year 3 starter and situational rotation player and he's still choosing to go to Bama. That's not ideal.

If this is about scholarship money. That’s not going to matter much.

The strongest recruiting pitch that Saban has is this:

“Every player I’ve signed and stayed in school has won a national championship.”

That’s tough to compete with. Doesn’t resonate with every kid, but certainly does with a lot of them.

re: Tomorrow LSU could pull off one of the biggest upsets in SEC Championship Game history

Posted by MandevilleSlim on 12/2/22 at 2:57 pm

2001 was not expected. I went to both LSU Tennessee games that year. Tennessee’s D Line that year was probably the best I ever saw.

It was hard to run up the middle against John Henderson and Albert Hayneswotth.
