In Other Words

They weren't keyed before? Who had that scout? 😆

As I shared earlier, both parties own blame for the dip in the passing game. You can find film that points blame on the QB, you can find film that points blame on the WRs. In reality, it's a shared burden. Regardless of which party you side with, the thing I think we can all agree on is that...

Yes, at times. They were covered up at others. And they dropped a lot of passes. Nico overthrew or was off-target a lot as well. I'm not placing sole blame on any one unit. I'm just not absolving any unit, either.

Your 20 or so callbacks here have been cute, but not really sure how my post fits in with your agenda. Are you instead of the opinion that our WR play last year was good? And I'll add that Nico didn't help. But there were a lot of drops and inability to get open that contributed to the...

In good fun, I guess, in this instance.

Great news! Congrats, Coach! And don't worry...Dr. Danny would never renege on a lifetime contract. You'll be fine. 😏

In terms of actual production, I don't think its even close. There's been a lot of empty calories in offensive recruiting. Peyton Lewis, Miles Kitselman, Ethan Davis (a stretch probably), John Campbell, Dont'e Thornton, McCallan Castles, Dylan Sampson, Squirrel White, Bru McCoy. That's the...

Ahh...I hear World Cup and immediately go to soccer. My bad.

I actually agree in a vacuum. I'm just talking about media perception, the fawning over Cooper Flagg, etc. Houston might actually be a better win, but will it get the same juice that a UK over Duke win did with voters? That's the unknown I guess. I hope we get to see it come to fruition.

Only thing I'll add in the context of your UK example is that they immediately vaulted to #9 just solely on the Duke wins. After that, they didn't have far to go. A lot of voters are easily swayed to make large swings in votes early on and beating the Duke hype machine played a role in that...

World Cup was in Qatar 3 years ago.

A month into the season, Maryland was 8-1 and a team receiving votes in the polls. Georgia was 8-1 with a win over #22 St. Johns and receiving votes in the polls. Just because they weren't ranked doesn't mean they weren't good teams. And you have to view their respective profiles in the same...

Kentucky went from 22 to 4 on the back of a win over Duke and the hype around Cooper Flagg. Marquette went from 18 to 5 on the back of wins vs Georgia, Maryland, and Purdue. A 9-0 start gets Tennessee in the conversation, for sure, but it is far from a certainty because of so many unknown...

I think you're probably right only because I'm not sure we start high enough to navigate that much distance with our early OOC schedule. We'd have to go undefeated which would include wins over Houston and another really strong team in the Vegas tournament. Possible, but a lot has to go our...
