I believe both are on his list. That will be an impressive atmosphere.

If it is truly IU and OSU as leaders, then probably still good for an Oregon win.

If we didn't play 9 conference games, then we would be playing west teams once every 6 years.  Once every 12 for a home game.

Go oregon

If you're not first, you're last....

well shoot.  brice was twice as nice but we can put this one on ice

Gives me a headache trying to figure out how we could fit in a 5 man class

It sounds like he is trying to convince himself on alabama.

Based on his comments, i would guess va tech or iu

wouldn't clowney fill a need more than Sensabaugh?

so any news?

Pretty exciting times.  I was pretty excited going into the Zeller/Oladipo year but definitely looking good again.

It is true.. they’re not changing up the concepts and plays.. they’re changing up signals, language, etc.. two weeks out… so players have a lot they have to learn now!  

If accurate, i would have at least 1 play named "Sampson sucks"

Well, I'm guessing any team that has watched our game tapes knows what offense we run.

I'm sure we could change up the names of the plays or however they call it in to the players if need be.

Of course, I have my doubts about james stealing a playbook.

Looking at the roster and noticed we have 7 QBs.  We definitely are making sure we don't end up converting players from other positions to QB just to survive a run on injuries or late transfers.

• Penix
• Tuttle
• Williams
• McCulley
• Merrill (w)
• Gremel (w)
• Jontz (w)

Is there a limit on the amount of walk-ons you can have on the roster?

That's a bummer.  Probably not happy with where he was on the depth chart unless it the reason was unrelated to football.

At least that was a position we could afford to lose depth and be ok

• Carr
• Baldwin
• Ellis
• Howland
• Holloman
• Childers (w)
• Ervin-Poindexter (w)
• Spegal (w)

Is the hammer getting hammered???? Maybe he should change his nickname to "The Nail".

Then he would just be a prick.

Ahh...  lets hide in our bedrooms and never get back to normalcy. Heck of an option you've came up with! 

My priorities are LITERALLY my students and players having their lives go back to normal. There is a virus out there that, from what we've seen, does not hamper them in anyway. The science backs that. 

Could there be long term effects? I mean.. yeah there could be. There are risks in everything. You could fall down the stairs, you could get in a wreck, you could have a heart attack, etc. Why are you so scared of living? Aren't you vaccinated?  

From what we've seen from Covid as far as teenagers go... your fear is wayyyyyy out of whack. It doesn't align with reality. 

I never said hide in our bedrooms.  Falling down the stairs would be an accident.  Refusing to wear a mask is willful negligence.  Apples to oranges.

The only way we get back to normal is if we get the pandemic under control.  Thanks for standing in the way.

But... the virus isn't bad for the students.... at all. We've seen that. It's scientifically proven. 350 deaths from school aged kids since Covid started.... there were 2700 deaths from teenage drivers in 2019 alone. Isn't 99.8% survival rate pretty good? 

And that's of the cases we know. 

We haven't seen that it's an absolute must for them to get vaccinated. 🤷‍♂️

"Vaccinated"

Because surviving is all that matters.  Who cares about long term health complications when our freedom of going maskless is in jeopardy.   Priorities out of whack?

Forgot about him.  Not sure why people we are actively recruiting keep getting bumped down below people going elsewhere?🙄

Need to stop posters from posting in the other threads   or just convince a mod to pin the recruit threads of our main targets

They are given a mask. lol Literally... I handed 300 of them out this week. The problem is they shouldn't be forced to wear it. 

Contact tracing is more of the problem for me. My wife quarantined idk how many kids last year and none of them got Covid. It's stupid. It doesn't work and it costs kids memories. But hey... someone said memories aren't important? Idk what in the actual f*** that even means. That's literally all we're going to have at the end of our life... memories. 

Masks should be enforced if they want to go to school.

Comparing this to driving a car or STDs is just insanely stupid.  STDs don't get transmitted through the air so trying to make that comparison is a complete joke.

We will never agree on this so go on being you but I actually would like to keep people safe, especially the unvaccinated.

 I promise there are other things for MANY of our students to worry about more than Covid. I wish everyone would have been so worried about our children's health before Covid. We would be in a lot better spot. This is a parents decision, not a school boards. 

Masks isn't a parent's decision.  Home schooling their kid if they don't like the rules is the parent's decision or finding themselves a private school.

I wish everyone cared about the children's health and gave them a mask for school.

The quarantining perfectly healthy individuals is wrong. "contact with someone with covid"... ridiculous. It didn't work the first time around.  The masks are stupid.. but if they honestly think it helps, I'll wear them. Using two days worth of incomplete data as your reasoning for a mask mandate is.... confusing to say the least. I hope those of you with kids fight like hell if your kid gets quarantined when they aren't sick. Don't let their education suffer anymore. 

The Facebook stuff is an awful PR move. Either make every post with comments or don't. Don't pick and choose. 

The facebook post was meant to inform people, not to hear the bickering it would have caused had comments had been enabled.

Anderson, IN had an outbreak of covid in their school system after being back for 3 days.  Guess what, they moved to a mask mandate.   The whole free for all didn't protect anyone.

Education will suffer if they have to go back to being virtual.   I would think all parents would be willing to do anything to keep that from happening and mandating masks is step 1.

Also, vaccinated people can still transmit the virus. The CDC said so.

But vaccinated people are 4 times more protected from being infected in the first place.

However, since kids under 12 are unable to get vaccinated, it's very important to take whatever precautions are available.

wait what? you want to go back to doing the things that don't work? quarantining perfectly healthy individuals. Eeeesh. And no... it's never a good idea to censor someone just because you don't like what they have to say. 

I want to go back to things that DO work.  

If I am wrong and people wear masks for no reason then what is lost? A little discomfort for no reason.

If you are wrong and people don't wear masks, then you just helped a pandemic spread.

Schools are quarantining those that come into contact with someone with covid.   That puts a major burden on families with 2 working parents.  So yes, do whatever it takes to slow the spread of covid and masks have shown to slow the spread.

No one is being censored.  Those people are still capable of spewing their opinions elsewhere or contacting the school board directly.  Nothing is served by having people fight back and forth on their decision to mandate masks.
