Why would Branch come here with the coach he just portaged away from? We are assuming our receivers are leaving because they hate Pope.

I think 4 of those WRs were told to hit the portal or a mutual decision. I think we wanted to keep Squirrel but he wanted big money and we declined to pay it. Wish him all the best, except when they play us because he is likely a Gump now. Matthews is the one that we definitely want to keep, and by all I can gather he will remain a VOL. Several posts have mentioned a serious rift between MM and Pope though...and that unit REALLY underperformed this season. It was posted here that our WR corps was bottom 10 nationally in dropped passes, and bottom 10 in getting separation. The 2nd claim is kinda hard to believe, because we left probably 10 long TDs on the field this season between Nico overthrowing 4-5 of them badly, and the WRs dropping 5-6 of them. Those guys were wide open, we just couldn't execute.

* also Nico had 19 passing TDs and 5INT.
Add just half of those long TDs to his total and its an entirely different season for him AND the team. 24 TDs 5INT is a good season. If Nimrod just catches the 2 wide open TDs against Arkansas we finish 11-1, play in the SEC Champ game, and have a home playoff game vs SMU etc. A couple plays can define a season.
 
If Drew Allar keeps putting balls on the money like that, PSU can win it all. Yes I get it’s a bit of a mismatch with Boise but still two perfect TD passes atm.

Everything is good in moderation! Even being around yetis
Even moderate drinkers have a significantly increased risk of various types of cancers, amongst all the other issues tied to alcohol.

Not to judge - to each their own - just hope we don't glorify it either and the risks are well known and transparent to all drug users. Everyone can take their own risks, with full knowledge, just hope we can all find happiness and health within that and into the new year.
