  1. Agreed, I have no qualms with a guy that could not make the grades, I wish him well in Juco or some other more irrelevant university, he will land on his feet, he has talent.
  2. Good point and the school is getting more difficult. These schools have one set of admission standards for students and a lesser one for the second tier sports and an even lower one for football and basketball players. Obviously they have to at least meet the minimum requirements set by the NCAA. My guess is still academics and he still would have played in the spring game because his grades were not final at the time. Once again light class load fall, college ready classes squeaked by and then did not have the skill or will and flamed out in the spring. No shame and no evidence of this however to me the most logical reason. I guess this still makes me a coward for some insane reason.
  3. Agreed, trivia night at local craft beer house, I was excited to have him, he had game and hope he stays, I am out.
  4. He took a really light load his fall year ( b/c football season)and he was likely taking pre-college classes to prepare himself for a legit college class, yes even an admission requirement for an athlete does not mean he met the min math/reading scores to take all college level classes. He took a full load of college classes in the spring and shat the bed is my guess. Live in Texas and aware of pot smoking players however if you think habitual pot smoking players do not struggle in school than you are mistaken. I am simply speculating like you , however I still feel it was grades.
  5. They don’t make it public so I have no idea who failed out. However CCS had a mass exodus at both Texas in his first year and USF last year. I am a coward for guessing a kid fails out or stopped going to class? His high school was rated a 1 out of 10 in college readiness for Georgia schools which are once again no bueno. Only a logical person would guess he struggled with the course work. On the second point, more than one or two scores up would not have UW exit their game plan, go back and read you post big man.
  6. He was redshirted like most Freshman QB’s, he would not have seen the field much this year unless BB got hurt which was possible. Next year he would definitely be in the hunt.
  7. These seem awfully generous to our opponents, USF a favorite on the road against GT, over a TD against Cincy? These seem off?
  8. I am guessing grades, Georgia school system is awful w/exception of suburban Atlanta. He was going to compete for a starting role and no reason to leave. I refrained from piling on when you made the dumbest comment of all time a couple days ago. You stated “if we win the toss and score then UW will ditch their game plan” however when you shame the board and call people cowards than you have established yourself as a D-bag and the gloves are off.
  9. Good points, my thoughts are it opens at 11, goes up to 12.5 on the Chicago money than settles back to 12 by kickoff as we overthink and over analyze this game into perpetuity. It won’t matter anyways hurricane Barry warnings for Tampa cause the game to be cancelled with no make up date.
  10. True, however in these swamp A$$ conditions I find a sticky sack more problematic, my recommendation is to powder up and powder often for both the players and fans to combat the humidity. Good point New England
  11. Anytime you are laying 2 plus scores it would need to be a surprise, that we will agree. We tend to look at this only from one side, UW aside from a fantastic RB, their Off line is young and unproven, not sure who will QB maybe a true freshman. First game, long road trip, swampy conditions, slippery ball, possibly under estimate their competition, bunch of kids. this is not the NFL, a long shot but maybe not as long as many think. New year, I will continue to live in my ignorant bliss until they prove me otherwise.
  12. I really doubt we will be calling for Bell’s head regardless of what happens and agree UW will control the ball. I like the idea of Wisconsin not having any tape to prepare and also believe the line will have Wisconsin as a 14 plus favorite. I will admit scoring at will is a stretch however first game could surprise us. We all remember the opener against McNeese State, anything can happen both good and bad. I choose to think good thoughts even if a tad bit naive.
  13. Referencing earlier post from Deldabull saying he is from Missouri, skeptical that USF will beat Wisconsin. Show me... I was simply stating that they have showed me nothing to believe they can beat UW and I still believe, not from Missouri. Agreed Mizzou even with an NFL QB struggled last year.’, they don’t have the depth to compete in the SEC this year either IMO.
  14. We all hope however feels illogical to think We can stop a future NFL back and one of the best in CFB this year and a young but always massive o line in Wisconsin when we gave up over 350 to Tulane on the ground at home last year and could not effectively stop anyone. We have plenty of players on D but to think we are deep at LB is comical and our DLine is unproven. With this being said I still believe USF will score at will and make enough stops to come out on top. I guess I am not from Mizzou and have drank the kool aid, I am cautiously optimistic or just plain ignorant, we will see.
  15. But we didn’t and that is the point. If a frog had a glass A$$ it would bust when it hopped. It has lost its luster now that we do not share a conference.
  16. Interesting if a conference game, if not it loses its appeal. If we were able to play them in a future conference game I would wet myself and then go set a couch on fire, win or lose.
  17. I have not been this excited about hoops since 1992 when they got an at large and lost to Georgetown. A nice surprise last year and helped shorten the football off season. As mentioned earlier I would like to see JB more of a role player off the bench if someone else can step up. He gives solid minutes and was money from 3 but one dimensional on offense IMO.
  18. You can take the boy out of the trailer park but you can’t take the trailer park out of the boy. Those freakin emojis are starting to grow on me.
  19. Got it, I do like winning them early and generating a buzz, did not enjoy losing the last six late though last year. The AAC championship without a BCS bowl will not be as satisfying as a win over Alabama or Florida. So I guess I agree with you. Heck if we beat Bama I am dragging my couch out into the street and setting it on fire.
  20. This was an incredibly long argument about topics that are not even mutually exclusive and I am not sure anyone even knew what the true parameters of the discussion were. However you found a way to once again come out on top. , nice work. I read your last post twice and am throwing up the white flag. I want USF to play a great non conference and win all of those games along with a conference title. In essence I like for my team to win instead of lose the games, maybe this makes me unique.
  21. We Texans are proud of the state and you don’t mess with Texas. Btw I have my butler post from time to time under my name so if there is ever a post that is asinine than it was probably him. The moral of this tired topic is that the Frisco Bowl is absolute straight smelly shat that I could walk to the game but have chosen not too in the past, would rather watch reruns of impractical jokers.
  22. That is definitely the game plan however the way the D played last year, I hope 8 is enough. The concern is Wisconsin will wear our D down with long sustained drives and their ball control will be the difference as they pull away in the second half, regardless of how swamp A$$ the weather is. No idea what the new offense is capable of however feel a lot better now with KB over Sterling.
