I don't know many people that "wanted" Strong. Once he was hired, most were "supportive." So I have to agree with BR. Saban, Shaw, Briles, Fisher, and others were higher on most of people's lists. But that's who Mack and Patterson wanted so that's who we got.

Comes down to depth in this one. WC can play with Silsbee when Silsbee is 6 or 7 deep. I don't think they can with Silsbee when they are 12 or so deep (and not many can). I'm sure WC will put up their best effort and they have an absolute dog in Slazinski. But won't be enough against the relentless stream of Tigers that Sigler can run out there. In my opinion of course. I'm often wrong

In a related story, just how bad is Ketch? He literally robs those who pay for his "info." You could have paid PhatMack and I about fiddy cents each to tell you Thursday that was likely agent shenanigans. I am guessing Geoff was really bad at connect the dots as a kid...

HC beat them by 15 a week or so ago (although WC best GLV by about 20 on weds and GLV beat HC yesterday). You are right about Silsbee today though. I would put the line at about 25-30. WC isn't nearly deep enough to play with Silsbee's full team.

Now the question is do we let LSU keep Aranda or not? I mean, they do deserve a little smack for trying to nudge their way in at the big boy table...

LSU: Okay, I know this chick is way too hot for me but...hey, if you agree to go to prom with me, I will buy your dress, take you to a 5* restaurant and rent a limo. But you have to decide by the day after tomorrow. LSU checks phone obsessively. Phone stays dry. LSU: Screw it, I'm tired of waiting. I guess I'll just take my cousin, Ed...

LSU drops out of Herman sweepstakes. It seems the reason is he wouldn't be hurried into accepting their offer and they knew they couldn't win if UT does make an offer. Soooo, is Herman a done deal to Texas now or do we take our time now and do a full search as some really want?

Psssst...teamfirst. This is what we call a "done deal." Thanks for playing lil' Tigers...

Now there's an area I can compete with you

Why do teams trash talk when they are absolutely getting mauled? I will never understand it.

As in we still have scoreboard over you Gomers. If you need help on what that means, I would not be surprised. Since 76 times we've played, you haven't had it. We are moving on. You are stuck with a schmuck who you extended (sound familiar?) after an early mirage. You, like the other clueless pumpers, keep holding on and telling us how he's finally hired the right coordinators, right before the inevitable mid season collapse. You were mediocre in the Big 12 (at best) and you are mediocre (at best) in the SEC. The only difference is you seem to think you can claim collateral success by slobbering all over Bama's knob. So scoreboard means we have actual scoreboard. And it can also mean that we are moving on while you guys will roll with the stumblin drunk for at least another year. But hey - you are going bowling! And for you aggy's who wouldn't know a championship that doesn't involve meat judging, I know that's a big deal!!

Scoreboard...still. Enjoy another 3 years of Sumlin. Or as we like to say - enjoy another year just like the last 75 or so. We're movin' on! While we wait, can you tell us again how great the aggy coordinators are now?

Smh. You are missing the whole point. Badly. Not about finishing 2nd or consolation. That's not what is being considered. Easiest path to championship. To try and win the tournament. But if you don't think this happens, I really can't help you.

Not the point - the point is to give a team the best chance to be 1st place. But I suppose consolation champ would be the best of the bottom half of tournament teams while 2nd would be the 2nd best team. Theoretically of course.

Truth. Especially if it's a team that has a really good big man but weaker guards. Big man won't be able to touch it enough to make a difference.

If you don't believe Memorial has set up the brackets in the Gamble to get to the finals (One of MANY examples and NOT unique to PAM), I can't help you. AAW is right - happens ALL the time.

So do we let the crazy cajuns have him now?

I.E., March Madness...

We'll see how that works out for them...

No no. Please, let's stick to how wonderful the coordinator hires Sumblin made were! Future is bright in aggyland!!! #sleepinggiant #100yearsiesta

I think Nash and I would be better served as commentators. You know, kind of like a "Crossfire" for basketball. I think both of our playing days are over. I'm getting winded just reading this thread...

Yes, any football savvy mind would put a lot of stock in a game where their coach's future was plastered all over social media, tv, etc last night. Or maybe not. Maybe just people who think Sumlin is the answer and "he's finally hired some great coordinators!" You know, clueless types!

So LSU will remove the interim tag from Coach O by Monday. What a fun 3-4 hours. Thanks for playing Tigers!

Me too. Not enough.

My son just said almost the exact same thing. Mazzone's group actually looks really good tonight and Chavis' unit looks awful.
