Really like our makeup:

Two solid guards with high IQ who are more or less consistent game-to-game - Shep and Wagner

Two wildcard heaters - Dillingham and Reeves

Athletic utility knife with a big game penchant- Thiero

Upside 3/4 - Edwards- still need to get him going obviously but the rebounding was encouraging Saturday and has a nice touch

Intelligent stretch 4/5 - Mitchell

Two rim protection and vertical spacers- Bradshaw and Oyenso - with Bradshaw providing a little more than that

If Destin Wade is making near 6 figures, the whole system needs ovoverhauled.
He wouldn't be getting it if his brother wasn't a great player. Also, schools have gotten filthy rich off these kids for decades and never paid a cent.

I don't begrudge any kid getting as much as he can. A backup QB or developmental position player may very well be worth $90k. Who knows?

*4th string

And again, I don’t begrudge the kid for getting it. I’m saying the system is destined to fail if someone of his talent is getting 6 figures.

-Maybe Prime can convince him to become a TE.

-No way this is sustainable but it's not really affecting the product on the field. Same teams are getting the same talent. The new NCAA chief seems to be a little more forward thinking than the clown that caused this mess. Shared NIL fund. Contracts. Etc all coming down the pipe.

-GAAAWWLEEEE it always feels great beating those sanctimonious douchebags. How awful are they? Gingham and Khaikis, wine and cheese. Puke. Toyed with them the whole game.

-Cal owns UNC and UL.

-Shep has to be in the crunch time lineup. Saw fat wop at church this morning but didn't think it was the right time to discuss.

-Why not Burks rather than Ugo?

-Bacot is a soft little *****. 9 & 6 against UK's freshman. Lol. How fitting a completely marginal player is gonna break all kind of records at UNC using the covid year?

-Not buying the silver dome for 100k was really the biggest miss in GYERO history. They just basically had that sucker listed on loopnet. Lol.

-If I'm Levis I just fake injury the rest of the season. Let Tannyhill go get dismembered the next few weeks. 7 sacks. JFC.

-Stayed up until 1:30a drinking brown water watching UFC. Felt that one.

-Little man had a decent fever, aches, chills, etc. So that should be fun running through the house the week before Xmas. I don't feel like this is, "why we do this."

Ours has it too... which means its probably coming for me in the next day or two. Pro move, tbh, getting sick the week before Christmas so you should be all clear to enjoy the holiday.

He keeps freezing up when his first option is covered, then he will keep getting pounded....no different than last year.

-started feeling rough Friday am beginnings of a nasty cold... wife got me going on Zicam swabs/zinc tablets. Absolutely lessened the severity.

^she's been telling me to do this for years... who knew.

-I like this Bradshaw kid. I had unfairly judged him because of clutch/klutch whateverthefuck. I'm happy to have been proven wrong so far.

-philosophically I'm down with nil/player movement and all that... and the portal has been a benefit to my cats. Still anxious for the future of my favorite sport.

-be nice if a UK qb could get a decent OL in the NFL... cost Couch a few years at minimum. Hopefully Tennessee does something.

-taking office staff/spouses to frank and dino's tomorrow night... we made good money on the build, never patronized. Seems like the right thing to do.

-go cats.

- Not sure I could have gotten a better sports day than going to a wild Bengals comeback W and coming home to watch a W over those sanctimonious Carolinian bastards. I had 16 heart attacks over the course of the day, but WHY WE DO THIS

- We took my nephew (7th grader) to the Bengals game with us over my BIL's extreme nervousness about trashy NFL fans getting rowdy and making the poor kid a nervous wreck. He had a BALL. Even though it got called back, when Germaine Pratt ran that TD in . . . kid looked like he had just found a million dollar bill. He took 892374765 pictures and showed everyone at the family Christmas party that night all his best shots.

In the 4th quarter, he turned to me and just held up his hand, shaking like a leaf, and said "...what is happening" 😆

- Sports pettiness is unmatched, tbh. Jake Browning screaming "You never should have cut me" at cameras was hilarious. I read a lot of smooth brained takes about "he knows those coaches aren't there anymore right hurr durr" and shut up man, Michael Jordan decided he hated a dude for not saying hi in the bathroom. That **** is awesome.

- I love beating UNC more than any other team. HAVING SAID THAT the last 5 minutes of gametime were beyond painful.

- Armando Bacot is the UNC version of Perry Ellis. I swear he's been in college at least 9 years.

Levis is holding the ball too long but his WRs aren’t separating. It isn’t about his 1st option not being open and not reading his 2nd or 3rd option because they just aren’t open and the play calls are a damn joke!

Holding onto the ball too long and not making quick decisions has always been his problem, as it is with a lot of QBs. It's frustrating because his physical tools are off the charts, and it's foolish to continue blaming his offensive line.

This was my knock on him, but I watched that game yesterday. The pocket was just collapsing on him. I would have tried to get him out of the pocket a little more if I were the Titans.

Or, just spit balling here, the Titan's OL is worse that UK's last year.
It is but Levis isn’t a statue back there so they could roll the pocket to offset the pressure. They could also use the quicker and shifty RB in Spears for dump downs which worked well against Miami.

The Texans had a very vanilla defensive gameplan and the Titans played to it instead of strategically trying to help our weaknesses.

Levis only missed 2 throws and after the INT it seemed as if he took the mentality it’s best to hold the ball and take the sack vs throwing the INT.

As the OC you can’t just say well the OLine sucks so I’ll call plays that make them look even worse! It’s been bad all year so that’s not new, just call plays that help those guys!

- Loved beating UNC. Game did not have to be that close. Still concerned with Cal's substitutions.

- Made $300 on Fanduel on a $10 bet. Almost lost it when Bradshaw missed the front end of the 1 on 1.

- Does Reeves vanish in big games, or is that just me?

- Maybe expecting 20/10 from Edwards is not what we should do. Maybe the 10/6 is as good as it gets.

- Three times this season he has been blocked by the rim? 3?

- Hey I don't mind Onyenso in there for a few minutes blocking shots. He is our best shot blocker.

- Cal will stay under the under against UL right? Won't embarrass Kenny. Hell we may lose.

- Speaking of Fanduel, had a 9 pick $10 parlay that would have won $4500 if former Wildcat Jamal Murray had made 4 threes Saturday night. The other 8 happened. FML.

- Is Baltimore the best team in the NFL? San Fran?

-last year: I was the one getting roasted in here because I called Levis out on holding the ball too long/rolling into pressure. It was true.

^that is not the case here...his OL is garbage. They suck at pass and run blocking... granted they have a ton of injuries on the oline.

You got roasted for your sartorial takes.

They knew it wasn’t a great OL to start and the only chance we had to be really good is if the young guys caught on quick.

RT- Petit-Frerre 2nd year
LT- Jaelyn Duncan rookie
LG- Peter Skoronski rookie

Everyone else they have are cast offs or so far underproducing lineman.

This offseason they have 80M to spend which is 3rd or 4th most in FA and early picks each round. From the sounds of it the whole organization is thrilled with Levis so it’s safe to assume they’ll make the right decisions around him.

There was one play where the Titan OLine double teamed a DE who was dominating… dude bullrushed BOTH OL, blew threw them and destroyed Levis on a deep drop in less than 2 seconds.

Not ideal.

You sure this wasn’t a run play where Henry was blown up in the backfield?

Basically same thing you described but both rookies on the left side released the double team to move up field and it left the guy right in position to level Henry.

Embarrassing.
