Pretty positive remarks by this guy about what the offense is about.

Here are QBs that we will face this year:

Samford - Johnson - 2025 Oregon State
Southern Miss - Hampton - 2025 Illinois
Vanderbilt - Curtis - New
Arkansas - Jackson - 2025 Arky (1 start)
UTK - Macintyre - 2025 UTK (No starts So effectively New)
UF- Philo - 2025 Ga Tech - Backup (1 career start so effectively New but has system experience.)
Cowbell Express - Taylor (2025 2 career starts. So new but system experience)
Baylor - Lagway (UF 19 starts, experienced but new system)
bama - Russell (New some playing time in the system)
LSU - Leavitt - (ASU multi year, but new to the O)
UgA - Stockton - you know the drill
Ole Sis - Chambliss - you know the drill

So looking at the above there are effectively new QBs in 5 of the programs we will face. They will be new to that offense as well.

3 that have been in the system but are new. - bama, UTK & Arky
2 that are experienced but are in new offenses - LSU & Baylor
2 that have multiple starts at their place.- uga & Ol Sis (don't know if their O will be different)

I realistically see us at 7-8 wins depending on how our D holds up then a bowl game. I think the core of our O will be fine. Experienced players at many key areas showing the others how the culture & work ethic is needed. I think with some breaks we can be realistically on the 8-9 level & hit a good bowl game.

I swear hats have just gotten ridiculous size wise


I had people accuse me of stealing their Covers "hats" in the military. I said go ahead and try it on...it came down well over their ears. I had to wear 7 3/4-8 in size. I have a hard time finding ball caps that fit well especially if they are a one size fits all type.

I just want to find a great looking AU hat that is sized to fit my noggin. I think Nike makes some XXL type hats or even XL that may work.

Like this cap





Dig that cap especially if it is not a one size fits all. Heading up by AU in a few weeks. Planning on stopping in and seeing if they have new hats in my size. Current Alumni one is ragged out.
TNT130. Pretty good size AMP it is old but has great sound.

sample pic below..just like mine.

Student loans - or at least ones of the magnitude we see today - didn’t used to be a thing, but states have shifted the burden *from* the taxpayer to the student and he’s really the guy that got that ball rolling.


They didn't used to be a thing until the Gov took over the lending starting in 92 but it was still tame then until the push for everyone to go to college. Then you had the wars of how much better is my campus than yours. Dorms etc. That brought in the gov money for all. The gains in between out of state AU from Mid 80:s to mid 2010"s was about 4k all in to 48k all in a year. 2010 was when the gov took it all over. I remember in the 80s you could get a loan but you had to go to a bank and they treated it like any other investment.

So are you broken?

Glad you got that going. How was taking your test for the license?

Anyone know if they sell the sized Baseball caps like the team wears? I have a hard time finding hats that fit and if they are fitted then they usually fit better and in porportion

They look nice. I just can't really wear slip ons due to my foot height. My oldest wears Hey Dudes and swears by them. I wasn't a flip flop wearer until I started working from home. Got used to wearing them around the house.

I dont remember ever having any tailoring issues around my neck


I had to buy the larger shirts that fit my neck & had to have them taken in on the sides. That is the issue. Same with the chokers & Service Dress Blue jackets. The pants we bought all had to be hemmed etc....just the way it is.
