Sort of off topic but the way this thread is going, not really. Here are places closer to Texas than Texas is to Texas.

that was so strange. what a shite effort on that play. should have easily tackled sama from behind.
He could have at least dove at him and maybe made him trip. My live reaction was WTF was that. I can only imagine what K State fans thought of it
At the end of the day this has to mean more young QBs transfer away from top programs.
Just this guy and KSU Howard likely going to top 15-25ish programs to start and then you figure there are lots of returning stud QBs. Some good players are going to have to transfer out when these guns get hired. It's not like there are 50 elite programs and it seems like about half of the top 20 is trying to bring in a proven QB annually.
Now days, nothing really will surprise me. Given the new "pay a coach tons with a guaranteed buyout" i would never fault a coordinator from locking that in (as someone's "luster" could also wear off with a bad year or two).
The transfer portal is wild though with NIL. Like the KSU QB, totally get why he would want to go....likely could get a decent payday as a proven QB. But then again, also feels like people like to be "recruited" and this plays into that.
I'd LOVE to get a podcast from what this looks like behind the scenes....like is someone's uncle calling Blum to say "my kid needs more" or how that communication looks like from coaches/Blum (for us, that is)...but also always wonder what prompts players to jump right now (is it THEIR assumption of playing time, something coaches share, etc?)
I spent an entire weekend at an interview just north of Lubbock in Plainview. I was looking for my flight out almost as soon as I landed. That place suuuuuucked.
It's not the end of the world, but you can see it from there.
Been to Lubbock a few times. Once you get out of town a mile it’s almost like you went back in time.
Drove back to Ames from Lubbock once during a snow storm, Took off around 10 am got home like at 2 the next morning.
Wasn’t there a huge dairy that caught fire north of Lubbock last year? I do remember another time driving up around the Hereford area and that was all you saw were these huge dairy farms.
Absolute best? When have we seen it? I actually think we saw what his best was, and it involved making poor decisions and throwing picks.
That's how some of these players tackle now. They want to make Instagram or Tiktok by laying someone out instead of form tackling like they were taught.
He found out it doesnt work so well though when you are already behind the ball carrier. It's garbage football and about time someone got benched for it.
Maybe he should look to NASCAR, that was a beautiful Bump Draft.
Not really, the CR metro are pop is 275, Lubbock 325. Pretty similar really.
I mean... its not a pea compared to Lubbock but 50,000 is not insignificant difference. Having grown up in a town of around 50,000 - its a decent area and things you can add when you've got that.
Dude, Crunch Berry day is quite lovely
It means more of everyone is going to leave. Addison from Pitt to USC, etc...
its the brave new world.
