  1. Unfortunately we picked the guy that fit in the previous draft... with a trade up to #1 overall one pick ahead of a guy who had one of the best rookie seasons ever. Tepper's Panthers in a nutshell.
  2. Redick was a top 50 type recruit. Randolph was like Flagg, the consensus #1 overall recruit.
  3. The 4th #1 seed was pretty much down to UNC, Tennessee, and Arizona. Tennessee is down 22 with 10 minutes to go. It really doesn't matter how this plays out, Carolina and Arizona are gonna be in the same bracket. One the #1 and the other the #2. The selection committee LOVES storylines. They tried to setup matchups with KU for Roy's entire tenure.
  4. I remember the last time duke landed a great white hype. Shavlik Randolph sure was a baller. lol
  5. The ESPN alert I got today about duke was about how Cooper Flagg is such a great shot blocker. lol
  6. Oh, we're a poo show for sure. Don't get me wrong. But there's a reason why this guy runs afoul of the powers that be everywhere he goes despite winning. He must be a spectacular world class asshole.
  7. Possible. He's a helluva prospect for sure.
  8. Gonna have to tear into my John Deere this weekend. I was doing the first mow of the season yesterday and all of a sudden it just started dying under load. Engage the transmission or mowing deck either one and it would die. I think it might be throttle cable adjustment related. I could hold the throttle up in choke position and it ran decent enough to at least get it back to the shed.
  9. Yeah, this is a pretty head scratching trade for both sides. You almost never see trades like this made until you know who's available. You're gonna feel like a jackass if you're the Texans and #21 comes up and there's a guy you had rated as a top 10 prospect sitting there. Seems like a safer bet for the Vikings, honestly. Gotta be thinking that there's no way you make this trade unless you're DAMN sure there's gonna be a guy who you think is worth it there.
  10. Who knows with that guy? He wears out his welcome everywhere he goes for a reason. Michigan boosters were ready to run him off until he finally beat OSU.
  11. That would be shocking. I think what he really needs is a good super processor. In reality, they're definitely going WR at #5 and they might even double dip. They'll probably draft Blake Corum in the 3rd. Keep an eye on OSU TE Cade Stover. I think he's pretty underrated by the mock drafters.
  12. That's how you setup a young QB for success. Man, we sure did set them up nice. If they blow it it's on them because they have a great opportunity to go from one of the worst to one of the best over the next year or two.
  13. Oh, he'll be thumping his chest again soon. Just wait until we draft some future Wal-Mart cashiers in the upcoming draft that he's convinced are All-Pros.
  14. Completely different organization now. In terms of my least desired NFL cities Washington would be top 5.
  15. It's lying season. They just wanna see if the Pats really want Daniels. I'm just not certain they want a QB at #3, period. It's baffling really. Or maybe they're putting out bullshit? Who knows? We'll here 1000 rumors between now and draft day and 995 of them will be pure bullshit.
  16. Williams #1, Drake #2, I'm honestly not certain the Pats go QB at #3. They should, I'm just not certain they do.
  17. Heels might have a 2 already, shot at the 4th #1.
  18. I'm to the point where nothing short of watching this team win games that matter on Sundays is gonna excite me. Trading up to #1 overall just to watch our guy flounder while the #2 pick had one of the better rookie seasons ever used up the last bit of the hopium I had left in my tank.
  19. We still need another vet body. Honestly not interested in Clowney unless he's willing to take a cheap hometown discount deal. He's just not that good and he's fragile. He might be trying to leverage making it through a season and having 9.5 sacks (behind a DOMINANT DL) into another payday though. Hope we don't take that bait.
  20. It's true. College basketball popularity has fallen off so hard from when I was growing up in the '80s and '90s. College basketball RAN poo in NC back then. We would literally watch the ACC tournament IN CLASS. Carolina vs. duke days might as well have been a national holiday.
  21. He just had to get his poo together for a minute. Got a little to gacked out on that Colombian marching powder, had to regroup.
  22. It blows my mind how some guys just get opportunity after opportunity after opportunity despite being terrible. It's like front office types liked them as prospects, thought they were going to be good, they look like players, they have the measurables of players, this guy should be a player. So they just get chance after chance after chance because they just won't let reality unseat their prior opinion. We're kinda seeing it with Bryce right now. The jury is still out they say. If Bryce had been treated like practically every other QB prospect where they get nitpicked to death leading up to the draft the narrative would've been littered with questions about his size about his arm talent, etc. But it was just brushed aside. I've never seen so many red flags just get brushed aside because people had convinced themselves that a guy was special.
