Who gives a fug what your mom gave to the school. That's like making a racist remark and saying its ok because you have a black friend.

3 inches of snow!!! so your a puss too?

Easy, tiger. I was responding to the subtle jab that people who pull for Carolina aren't smart enough to attend App.

Three inches of snow is no biggie. It's the time of the year that was an issue.

Please note: It's "you're" not "your" - not an English major at ASU, eh?

Boone is a cool little town and I've always had fun there. However, it's a very delusional fan base. ASU moving up to REAL college football would be an awful decision. They'd struggle to win 5-6 games a year and if lucky enough would get a bid to the "Aaron's Rent-A-Center Bowl."

Let's get back on topic, please.

OP is right to a degree... AE should stay, but I dont agree with cutting Jimmy. We don't even know if Cam's swag has rubbed off on him or not yet. Wait til pre season to see whats up. Hopefully we can showcase him and get a good trade offer

These are the Panthers we're talking about.

If Clausen excels in the Preseason, Derek Anderson will either be 3rd string or gone, and yes I will be pissed about ALL of that.

The sooner we can wash our hands of Clausen, the better. I don't care what he does, or how you feel about what I think about it.

I've wondered if Edwards has ever been given the chance in practice to play QB. I believe that he has been slotted as our emergency QB for a few games. I'm not a fan of Clausen but I don't think that Edwards would be more productive than Clausen would be if we had to depend on one of them.

http://www.catscratc...-risers-fallers

My 53 man roster prediction has already been blown up so as I was pondering some changes it became obvious we need to first talk training camp Risers & Fallers. There may be no official depth chart yet (hey, we need to do that too) but players are rising and falling none the less. Here's my take on those two:

Risers:

K Justin Medlock - He's nailing most (on avg 7 of 8) of his kicks including 50+ yarders and also driving it deep into the end zone on kick offs; Watch out Olindo Mare!

LB Luke Kuechly - Though the bar was already set high for this guy he's exceeded it so far; Is it too early to start talking Defensive ROY? I'm at least saying he's going to be in the conversation

WR Armanti Edwards - Though I might back off my statements on Cat Scratch Radio that Edwards is now in the mix to make the 53, Edwards has done nothing but catch everything thrown at him and looked good doing it. I saw him go over the middle and go up high, in traffic and ****** balls. Don't count him out just yet, we know this kid has moxie.

RB Mike Tolbert - Another new addition with an initial high bar, Tolbert looks like a guy who might lead the skill players in plays and touches in 2012. His hands are as good as advertised and as James likes to say, he is built like a soda machine. A soda machine that runs like the wind and hits like a truck.

G Roger Allen - The Panthers appear to have one more guard spot open behind Amini Silatolu, Geoff Hangartner, and Mike Pollack. Allen looked very solid in the one-on-drills Sunday night handling bull rushes while keeping his base low. He might still need to work on picking up stunts for example but he stood out in my view and could be the second UDFA on the Panthers offensive line.

DE Ryan Van Bergan - Jyles Tucker's departure opens the door for another versatile DE and Van Bergen looks like he wants it. He's another high-motor guy with the size (6'4" 300 lbs) and versatility to play inside or out. If he can play special teams effectively he's another UDFA that could make the initial 53.

I could add a few more but trying to limit it to those making the biggest rise. I've likewise identified a few Fallers, after the jump...

The Fallers based on my observations and reasoning:

WR David Gettis - I realize he can;t help the fact he's still recovering from injury and got put on the PUP. But if you aren't out there then its never good. With the competition like Louis Murphy looking so good it makes it even worse.

OT Garry Williams - Williams looks like he came into camp heavy which can't be good when trying to recover from a broken ankle. He looked a little slow on the speed rush and now is in a dogfight with Lee Ziemba for the back-up RT spot.

TE Gary Barnidge - With the addition of FB Mike Tolbert the Panthers might not need three TE's and Barnidge hasn't really shined in camp so far. His special teams play might save him but otherwise I'd rather see that roster spot used on a WR or a 4th RB/FB/TE like Richie Brockel.

OT Jeff Otah - The bar was already set low for Otah and he has gone under it easily. Two failed physicals with a 3rd expected today will do that.

WR Seyi Ajirotutu - The Panthers might disagree with me but I've seen a some key drops in practice from Seyi and if you can't do it in practice how can we trust you to do it in a game? I love his size and speed but he's still making too many mental mistakes for a 3rd year guy.

Personally, I'll be glad when Armanti gets his pink slip in a couple weeks and all this crap will be history. The dellusional ASU homers will also disappear and get back to focusing on their game vs Liberty lol.

Liberty is not to be taken lightly.

Why are we keeping a sub par 3rd string QB on are 53 man roster, when we could have a very versatile 3rd string qb, that can be used in different areas. AE is not going to make the receiver roster this year, but he has skill to be a qb, runner, or wildcat option package. I think with Chud's mindset, he can use AE in so many different ways. Cut Jimmy, no NFL skills at all. What do you think?

Oh yeah and use AE as a Punt Returner too. Yay?
