I’m not sure why anyone is surprised, it’s the NFL. They are the most forward in cultural cleanup of any pro league.

Look at what’s happened. With Rich Incognito, Michael Sams, and Colin Kapernick.

It’s disappointing that this the quality of person Jon Gruden is though.

Good rule of thumb in life:

Every thought you have does not have to be expressed verbally or in writing.

Also every thought you have does not have to become a new thread on VN.

If you say so. People also have the right to say things that are wrong, insulting, or worded poorly. Forcing everyone to communicate as if they are a lawyer is just a different form of censorship.

Taking private emails and storing them like fine wine until the culture becomes sensitive enough to deliver maximum damage should not give anyone a warm and comforting feeling.

I think Smith’s position is part of the reason this blew up.

And he’s held that position since 2009, if nothing else Gruden is an idiot of major levels to be sending out these sort of emails for over a decade and multiple different people have been mentioned apparently.

On Big Orange Hotline Bob, Pat, and Jeff are all excited about our offensive stats. They all agree it would be nice if we could have that Pittsburgh game back. Pat says we don’t need to get carried away because we have a tough 4 game stretch coming up. Jeff says he don’t care; he’s going to get carried away. Pat asks how long has it been since we had an slew of offensive numbers we could talk about.

Jeff points out that the last guy we had said we didn’t have the players. They give props to Heupel for playing with the guys he’s got. Pat said he and Bob meet with staff 2 days before the game and last week they knew that there were a ton of players going to be out for the South Carolina game, good players. Bob said he asked Tim Banks what he was going to do with Theo out and Tim said they were going with Brandon. Bob wanted to know if the kid could handle it. Tim said he would be fine, like no big deal. (14 tackles, SEC defensive player of the week).

Pat said he thought in the beginning that Heupel would figure out how to score some points even under the adverse circumstances he inherited but he didn’t expect this. This is over the top.

They hyped up our secondary because of their aggressive play. They point out we lead the SEC in TFLs and 22 guys on the team have a TFL. Pat says we had this “awesome” defensive guru from Alabama come in here and was supposed to build this top notch defense. It didn’t happen. (Pat and Jeff are dissing Pruitt every chance they get).

Alontae Taylor was on for an interview with Bob. Alontae said Theo was coaching Brandon up in the week’s lead up to the game and was on the sideline coaching him throughout the game.

They have the “voice of the rebels” on to preview the game. They rehash the Ole Miss – Arkansas game and the guy bemoans the setback of their defense against the razorbacks. They have depth issues on that side of the ball, the guys says. The guy gushes over their QB and claims he’s matured a lot this year. (Anyone who saw the game or looked at the film will see that Arkansas missed a lot of tackles and let a number of guys run wide open in the backend over the course of the game. Ole Miss took advantage of that. I think Ole Miss bounced back from their loss to Alabama better than Arkansas did after their loss to Georgia).

They replay Brandon’s locker room interview after the game last week and the guys say Brandon is a great story for the rest of the guys to be ready for your opportunity.

The guys wrap up by saying the obvious, we need to slow down the Ole Miss offense this Saturday. They lead the nation with 24 4th down attempts. They’ve made it 18 times (75%). They’ve only played 5 games. In the conference they are dead last in punts/game at 2.4.

Over the last 3 weeks, since deploying my new simplified model for Freak’s weekly picks contest, it’s performed at a rate of 73.3%.

Big Orange Hotline is such an underrated show. A hidden gem that you can just head to Dead End on a Monday and see Bob and the guys do the show on the patio. It’s awesome.
