Despite all the new faces on the roster this is the most confident I've felt going into week 1 in a very long time.

"Iran stated in negotiations with U.S. envoy Witkoff "

see now guys like Occam are going to question whether this happened or not...... all in an attempt to prop up Kent because he said OMB.

Kind of hard to refute considering the Iranian spokesperson has been on every major network saying the same thing.

The only question is what defines "imminent"? OBL wasn't an imminent threat to mainland U.S. until he was and he just flew planes into buildings.

""The widespread assumption is that the material is still there. So we haven't seen - and not only us, I think in general all those observing the facility through satellite imagery and other means to see what's going on there - movement indicating that the material could have been transferred," Grossi ?said." -- Sounds like they really don't know one way or the other.

Then also it says, "All three Iranian uranium-enrichment plants known to have been operating - two at ?Natanz and one at Fordow - were destroyed or badly damaged in June." So what capabilities do they still have after the June attack?

Iran stated in negotiations with U.S. envoy Witkoff that they had 460kg of 60% enriched uranium, enough to make 11 nukes. To get to 90% enough for true weaponsm grade can be achieved in weeks . 3-5% enrichment is required for energy. Beyond 20% is approaching propulsion and 60% is "near weapons grade". The challenge is miniturization to put on a warhead and then delivery system with a survivable re-entry vehicle. That can take significantly longer. The question is, with their alliances with Russia and China and an already successful MRBM program, how long before they reach ICBM and MIRV capability?
quote:

I'm about a hour into the interview and it's pretty crazy people on here are completely ignoring the facts that Iran had no nuclear abilities or the ability to enrich nukes.

quote:

PARIS, March 9 (Reuters) - Almost half of ?Iran's uranium enriched to up to 60% purity, a short step from weapons-grade, was stored in a tunnel complex at Isfahan and is probably still there, U.N. nuclear watchdog chief Rafael Grossi said on Monday.
The tunnel complex is the only ?target that appears not to have been badly damaged in attacks last June by Israel ?and the U.S. on Iran's nuclear facilities.

The IAEA estimates ?that when Israel launched its first attacks in June, Iran had 440.9 kg of 60% uranium. If enriched further, that would provide the explosive needed for 10 nuclear weapons, according to an IAEA yardstick.
"What we believe is that Isfahan had ?until our last inspection a bit more than 200 kg, maybe a little bit more than that, ?of 60% uranium," IAEA chief Rafael Grossi told reporters in Paris.

You sure about that?

Gonzaga up 6-1 on OU in 9th

2-7 Gonzaga is taking it to the same OU that was scoring 20 runs per game.

Maybe we should settle down bit with panicking about Jay's team

There is a literal act of congress that prohibits the US from selling F-22s to even our closest allies, and we all know that we're selling F-35s to basically everyone.

Those are export variants. The avionics are modified and some of the higher end technology is removed.

They are 2 totally different platforms. The F-35 is a multi-role platform. It can perform deep strike, SEAD (suppression of enemy defenses), escort, etc. It also has an AF, Marine and navy variant.

The F-22 is primarily a fighter.

It's not an either or discussion.
quote:

You can shite on the US MIC all you want, but compared to anybody else it’s not even close.

Yes, the F-35 is great.

But as said it really takes:
1.) great intel provided by Israel
2.) great technology provided by US
3.) great training provided by US
4.) fantastic operations, logistics, and execution by US and Israel

Even if another country like Russia or China has similar tech, they still have to have training, operations, logistics, and execution to carry it out. It’s clear they aren’t close in those regards

Our ability to integrate from kinetics to non-kinetic (ie cyber and electronic warfare, space), technology, training, combined arms, logistics is unparalleled. China is the only nation that "on paper" matches us technologically although they don't have a blue water navy yet, but will soon. The big difference is they aren't battle tested, so who knows how they will operate in a large scale conflict.

The game changer in all of it is AI and more importantly quantum computing. Whoever reaches full quantum capability and integration becomes nearly impossible to defeat.
That warrant officer will soon have a warrant for his arrest. :lol:

One thing is for sure. The ball is not carrying tonight. Stick with small ball and get guys on base.
Ok, here we go. Let's take it here!
If they'd stop trying to launch the ball and just get hits we'd be ahead.
Perkins' athletic ability is undeniable. That being said, I find it hard to believe that a defensive staff with Peoples (considered one of the better pass rush coaches in CFB), Raymond and led by Baker who specializes in LB play didn't do everything possible to get the best out of Perk.

He flashed talent this last season, but also ran himself out of plays, had issues with consistent effort and was washed out of lanes. For his sake, I hope he lands somewhere that can find the right fit for his skillset and he can stay focused.

I feel like LSU will be a team to watch if this comes to fruition.


Hopefully not for the wrong reason. Just when we built talent and depth, kids are going to start looking at where they are on the depth chart and consider whether another school offers a faster path to start.
Not so fun fact: Kelly is the only LSU coach to lose to aggie twice this century.
