I didn't finish the first one so I haven't looked into the second one.

I liked the combat. The story was just boring me. I know it's a more grounded, realistic story which I can appreciate. But too many of the missions were just time filler. The one where the guy working on the farm ran away, and you go try to find him and like five NPC's tell you "He went that way!" I just said enough lol. If the second one is a little more dense I'll try it eventually.

It’s more of the same, but on a larger scale, so I don’t know that I’d recommend it if you didn’t enjoy the first. The side quests are more fun than the one you describe but I understand your point of view.

The griping has commenced on Aguilar. Coaches see things WAY beyond what message board gurus can see. Stats never tell the whole story. If he is the choice I would hope he would be given the benefit of the doubt.

He's the new plan B. I ain't complaining, but I want the QB equivalent of Ament.

What happens individuals get all hyped up about rumors and when it doesn't happen they get all pissed off. Then start arguing.😂😂

The criticism I've seen is all related to one game (Clemson).

First of all, if you are only as good as your worst game, Nico isn't worth a ham sandwich, much less whatever UCLA is gonna pay him.

Second, he threw the ball 41 times that game. It's gonna get ugly when you are clearly outmatched and the coach still let's you put the ball in the air 40+ times.

Obviously if he does come here, he's going to be much more of a game manager, just like all of Heupel's QBs have been. Hopefully he can avoid over throwing receivers who are a different zip code from the closest DB.

Thought Angeli would be before Aguilar, Idk though.

Different interpretations of the same animal…as far as skillsets imo. The desired result is a signalcaller who can compete to start OR be ready to start. Preferable to being one hit from handing the keys to an untested true freshman.

He's probably wanting a guaranteed starting spot while Aguilar would probably be happy just to land on a good team with a fair shot to start after all he's gone through since leaving App State. I don't think Angeli is the type of player where someone on Tennessee's side would tell him he's a lock to start.

So all you Oblivion fans... are you as excited about the Medieval DOOM game coming out? IDK, why but I'm all for it. Doom looks even more badass with swords and shields lol. I know it's more pure fps 'things go smash boom' but it appeals to my love of swords and boards in gaming.

CJH just made the playoffs with a bad QB and oline and people acting like he doesn’t know what he’s doing lol

I would not say they were bad, but definitely mid tier. We have upgraded our Oline and we could potentially upgrade our QB as well. Here is hoping

I thought Nico wasn't the problem on offense?

Bad is lol. First-year starter, true.

And I do find that impressive, re: Heupel.

April 21, 1918
The Red Baron is killed


On April 21, 1918, with 80 victories under his belt, Baron Manfred von Richthofen led his squadron of triplanes deep into Allied territory in France on a search for British observation aircraft. The flight drew the attention of an Allied squadron led by Canadian Air Force pilot Captain Arthur Roy Brown. As Richthofen pursued a plane piloted by Brown’s compatriot, Wilfred R. May, the Red Baron ventured too far into enemy territory and too low to the ground. Two miles behind the Allied lines, just as Brown caught up with Richthofen and fired on him, the chase passed over an Australian machine-gun battery, whose riflemen opened fire. Richthofen was hit in the torso; though he managed to land his plane alongside the road from Corbie to Bray, near Sailley-le-Sac, he was dead by the time Australian troops reached him. Brown is often given credit for downing Richthofen from the air, though some claimed it was actually an Australian gunner on the ground who fired the fatal shot; debate continues to this day.

Due to the circumstances, no matter who the QB is this season I'm willing to provide dispensation for any otherwise unacceptable outcomes. That said, I could see Vol fans really rallying behind this team.
