re: With Braelin Moore returning from injury and choosing to play in the bowl game…

Posted by BornAndRaised_LA on 12/21/25 at 9:26 am to tgdk11

I just have to think that every advisor he has would be strongly recommending him to prepare for the next phase if he was going that route. The game is meaningless if you’re leaving.

With Braelin Moore returning from injury and choosing to play in the bowl game…

That would imply he’s not declaring for the draft, right? I would expect that if he were jumping into the draft, he’d shut it down and make sure his injury is 100% for the combine.

If you have an easy throw to a wide open WR to end a drive quickly…you take it. 100% the right play by Mateer

It’s still called “recruiting” in the business world. It’s all just talent acquisition and money is a big part of “recruiting” everywhere…sports or business.

It’s one and the same.

re: Let’s revisit Frank Wilson’s coaching history

Posted by BornAndRaised_LA on 12/17/25 at 12:22 pm to JimTiger72

Wilson has always felt like a recruiter that was placed into position coach roles to boost his ability to in-home recruit. He was a bad head coach, he never really showed outstanding capability as a position coach, and his skills seem entirely in talent acquisition and player connection.

With NIL and revenue sharing, his skills lose some value while coaching remains important. Why take risk with a marginal coach if you think you can still get the talent?

Girls are playing very sloppy ball right now. Getting out-hustled and giving a lot of TOs

Georgia’s schedule next year is a cakewalk

Posted by BornAndRaised_LA on 12/12/25 at 5:06 pm

2 cupcakes to start
@Arky
OU
Vandy
@Bama
Auburn
Bye
Florida (neutral site)
(Oops…) @Ole Miss
Mizzou
@SCar
GT

That’s a pretty favorable draw.

Edit: I did accidentally miss the 2026 Fighting Pete Goldings, without Chambliss.

Disagree with some points, due to lack of conference parity and the mismatch between conference size and schedule length.

How I’d do it:

1. No more independents. Looking at you Notre Dame. (We agree here)

2. FBS is split into two. The “Group of 5” conferences go their own way and crown their own champion. (We agree here)

3. The power 4 conferences consolidate into even numbers, probably 18-20 each. (Disagree; too large)

I like 4 conferences of 16, split into 8-team divisions, all playing 10 conference games and 2 OOC P4 games. No games vs G5 or FCS.

4. The four conference champions meet in a national championship playoff, seeded by old BCS formula.

You new here? Bama is getting to the playoff. We’ve all seen this before. If there is any twisted logic that can be applied, it will be applied for their benefit.
