    Regarding damn him ?...  I know the feeling...  That said, I would change any of it except my expectations at certain times...

    I get it. Son and grandson of Aggies with no NC since my dad was a freshman in 1939. Grandmother was a teasip and I have an advanced degree from UT-Austin. I could claim several with those credentials including the last in 2005. And even though I had my degree by then, I could not release my "inner longhorn" to claim it. LOL!

    Of course I would have to have a typo using "would" instead of "wouldn't" in the most important part. The good thing is you're used to me doing stuff like that so you trained yourself not to see it or see it understanding of the knucklehead that typed it.  Thank you for either Mr MeAggies!!!!

    If any intriguing junior QBs contemplating coming out see that it's Cleveland drafting 1st they're better off going back to college for the senior year. 

    And worst of all...

    Now we're going to go back to "Nobody wants to play in Cleveland" or "...for Jimmy Haslam."

    I think we're already there - everybody playing Offensive Tackle sure looks like they don't want to be playing in Cleveland.  

    D'Onta Foreman is supposed to be a physical back?  We've seen countless impressive physical RBs here and he isn't one of them.  I can't get the impression of him a couple weeks ago - immediately after the handoff with a running start at a LB that he outweighed plugging the hole near the goal line that delivered a great stick and drove his ass straight backward.

  • Well Tyler Warren, TE Penn St., was really impressive today against USC. Just a name to keep in mind during the draft at some point. Very athletic guy who gets moved all over the field, though TE seems to be his destination in the NFL.

    Glad you got out early Tom. Roads out are jammed and gas is running out. Many will be stuck in cars for this one.

    Thanks Aggies!  When I got out of work Monday evening, the major highway looked like a parking lot.  We did some last minute house protection, took a short nap and left at 2AM; and we we didn't have any slow-downs or stoppages until we were 2 hours into it.  Even those were minimal.  We already had our gas tank full and ready to go thanks to advice from @axe

    We just got power back here in Bradenton. We bugged out weds about 1:00pm. 75N was relatively clear all the way to Lake City. Rained like hell tho. The eye passed directly over both of our houses and my daughter's as well. Our new house came thru fine, just a lot of limbs down None hit the house.. The other house has moderate damage. I've spent the last couple days doing a lot of the repairs. What a week!

    My friend lives in Nokomis just across from Venice, which showed water a foot or so deep in houses. Hers got water in it, but not enough to get under the walls into the dry wall. She spent a few hours moping that up. She also got a "free" freezer in her front yard. Verified it had no bodies in it.? She was very lucky since they were calling for it to go under by several feet. Still with so much damage to that whole area, her property values had to drop precipitously. She had already been thinking of selling it. Two others she owned she had already sold fortunately. All those barrier islands from Siesta Key fronting Sarasota on down well past Nokomis, Venice and Ft. Myers look devastated with destroyed houses and piled up sand/debris everywhere. Youtube has lots of drone videos showing how extensive it was.

    damn hurricanes(pun intended I hate the u ) glad ya all o.k

  • Rumors that this upcoming QB draft class being mediocre seem to have a lot of validity. 

  • Penn State plays Wisconsin tonight on NBC starting at 7:30, if any of you crazy kids want to check out PSU's Drew Allar, who might be in play for the Browns next draft at QB. 

    Miami's Cam Ward is on ESPN if he tickles your fancy at QB, against Florida State right meow .

    I ilke Dippre, the TE at Bama.  Under rated.  he will be a solid pro TE.

    He hurt a knee in the game. Didn't play 2nd half.

    Or not... he might not play.

  • After watching the whole game last night I began to have hope that the QB we need is sitting right there in the person of J. Winston. Yeah, a couple of mistakes he got away with, but overall who could ask for more than over 300 yds and 3 TDs? Certainly not out of some rookie QB in a QB poor draft class coming up. He was poised, went quickly through progressions and threw darts 90% of the time. Plus came from behind in the clutch. Even the fumble he tried to blame himself for as any good leader would do despite it coming from a blindside blitz no one else on the team picked up.

    Yep, I say go for players to help the team get better in the draft. JW looks like he has matured into a real NFL QB. Let's just see how this plays out the rest of the year. He's only 30 years old. Certainly did not look over the hill. And he's plenty big enough to take the hits and get the QB sneaks at 6'4" 230 lbs.

  • I’m mildly intrigued by Garrett Nussmeier.  I think it will take a first round pick and I also think he’s going to fly up the board come February. 

    Cam Ward too.

    NO THANKS to Drew Allar

    After that I’d be more inclined to do what many people want stock the cupboard on the Oline.

    I definitely want a RB this is very deep class - maybe Dylan Sampson Tenn. 

    if we are rebuilding and we don’t take a QB this draft we need to make sure we have enough picks so we can pull the trigger on a move up in 2026 to get our guy.

    I think the Texas A&M defense just exposed his weakness, a tendency to overplay his hand under extreme pressure. 3 interceptions led to a runover in the 2nd half outscored 31-7 from a comfortable 17-7 halftime lead. The higher the pressure the greater the collapse.

    That’s fair.  I do see an NFL arm and what appears to be some ability to read a defense and use his arm first from the pocket. 
     

    Please no Allar.  Please I’ve seen enough of this guy

    Yes Allar is severely overrated.. 2nd stringer at best..

  • Quinn Ewers is a name mentioned as a possible non-first round QB draft pick for the Browns in this thread, he's playing right now vs Arizona State in the CFP Quarterfinal. 

    He has one more year of eligibility, but with Arch Manning behind him, the Longhorns might have to push Ewers aside for the highly-touted Manning. 

    Ewers could transfer for his last season, like Will Howard did when he left Kansas State to go to Ohio State, or he could just declare for the NFL Draft.

    Transfer portal closed on Dec 28 and so it's either come back or go pro. Or enter the next transfer portal time April 16-25, but this means missing important spring football practice with a new team.
