Diego Pavia files lawsuit against NCAA over eligibility rules, NIL pay
Wow - that's a great argument. Diego is going to win this.
The SEC will have to deal with him another year or two if he manages to stay in place.
He's a great college player who's really exciting to watch.
An interesting by-product of this suit (assuming it's successful) would most definitely be that former Juco players are highly sought after in the portal. Give a decent player another couple of years (on top of red shirts) to mature and grow and you'll be seeing more 26 year old college players on your team.
The only constant is change.
Haha. I'm not sure how to feel about that. We're not used to having people storm the field after beating us. It's a step up in the grand scheme of things. Thank you, I guess....
By the way, doesn't half that fine money go to the other school? Maybe we can use it to buy some tackling gloves that don't have bacon grease all over them.
That's terrible no matter how anyone tries to spin it. Being a police officer is a very difficult job, but they have to show restraint and cannot continue beating on someone once he's given up in a vulnerable position. Anger management is needed in this kind of case.
No joke. It's like the defense thought they were playing tag. They got to Sellers a half dozen times that should have by all rights been sacks, but I guess they forgot how to tackle.
Yes, that's the unintended consequence of the rule. It's changed a lot of players' lives for the worse.
You guys had LSU on the ropes until he was injured, that's for sure. He's a good one.
Was Sellers greased up tonight? Aggies trying to tackle him looked like they were in a greased pig catching contest. He's slippery. Or our guys didn't practice tackling this week. One of the two, maybe both.
That and the Aggie defenders have had Sellers in their arms 4 times behind the LOS and let him get free. Gotta do better tackling.
It will definitely be an insane atmosphere. This is going to be a real test for the Aggies after the emotional win last week. This is a perfect setup for the kind of let down the Aggies have been known for in recent years. Elko's significantly exceeded expectations in his first year. A win tonight would cement him as a coach to really be reckoned with down the stretch and in years to come.
Giddyup and gig 'em!
Gotta love Tom Herman being dragged off the field by his wife. What an @$$. You want a proper handshake, win the game.
I like this. I'm sure there's some wiggle room, as a cramp is easy enough to fake unless the ref actually examines the calf or the thigh. But at least it will raise the stakes and might slow this down, if not stop it entirely.
Agree. After watching Pavia play a few games, I really don't see any QB above him I'd rather have on a team if I were building it from scratch. He's a dawg and brings his own culture with him. He should be #1.
I'm assuming he's talking about the potential rematch in the SECCG. That's putting the cart way before the horse, in my opinion, but that's the only thing that could mean, right?
Playing Beamer's South Carolina always makes me nervous. If there's a trap game, it would be this one. Very tough team coming off a bye week in their home stadium that's going to be very loud. It will be a good test to see how locked in Elko can keep the players after tasing a bit of success.
Jimbo hired him, so I doubt he'd target him by saying that out loud on purpose. He was asked for an impromptu comment, so maybe it was a subliminal message and he didn't recognize what he'd said until it came out. It sure fits Jimbo, though, doesn't it?
Ha! Well done as usual. Not used to seeing the top floor. It's good to finally have a coach, but the SC defense along with Sellers coming off a bye isn't going to be fun, and that's not just BAS talking.
Elko's clearly the coach for this team. He's great at making adjustments. As painful as the Jimbo era was toward the end, it was Jiimbo that brought Elko to College Station. You take the bad with the good, I guess.
Regarding the rivalry, the overall series record is in the horns' favor because they took full advantage of the years during and after WWII when the Aggie players were in Europe and the Pacific theater, and in the era when TAMU was an all-male college. Put a stake in the ground at 1975 and the Aggies lead the series 19-18. True. Buckle up, my friends.
Well, there is that one team ahead of us that we get to play, at least. that's one that Elko can do something about.
It was pretty good. The brisket doesn't lie. I have to admit I was drowning my sorrows early in the second half, but glad they got it turned around. Man, LSU's passing attack is for real. If they can get some rushing to keep defenses honest, they'll be a terror.
Yeah, I'm disappointed in the way he played. He's got sky high potential and I think he'll get it together. Just a bad, bad stretch.
You keep saying that, but I'm not sure it's true. There's not a lot of history to draw on, really. He's a competitive kid and I expect him to keep getting better in the passing game as well as reading defenses. How much has he improved over the past 3 weeks since he was benched? Hard to say, but his two passes tonight were money. If we can continue to run, then the windows downfield should open up.
Reed's getting better and I suspect will continue to do so. He's not a pocket passer and will never be. You're dead-on about the drops. I couldn't stop yelling at my TV watching so many good passes hit the receivers' hands and pop out.
Still, the switch obviously worked. I expect to see both QBs play the rest of the way, and I trust Elko and Klein to manage it the right way. There will be nights when Conner comes in and lights up a team that prepared for a run-first offense. The benefit of being multiple cannot be overstated. Conner can play like an NFL QB when he's on. Unfortunately, he's been too inconsistent to expect that every night. Elko and Klein have a "QB luxury" on their hands.
It's great to finally have a coach who understands that you need the whole team and is willing to make the hard choices to get a win. This season has exceeded expectations so far, and this is the time we'll find out how well they handle success. I'm intrigued to see how far Elko and Klein can take this team. Gig 'em!
Whatever the final score of this game, I'm really looking forward to the tu QB memes after the game on November 30. Aggies have spent the past 12 years building to a crescendo.
Gonna be a fun one, my friends.
Gig 'em!

Dang good brisket.
Dang good win.
Gig 'em.
That is all.
He's right. Against Elko, the first half is your chance.

Hey, the good luck brisket has never failed. I'm already 12 hours into it. Pulling out all the stops for this one.

People are giving your OLine a lot of credit for "stopping the run" against Arkansas when Green was hobbled and immobile from the start and Jackson went out with injury in the second half. Expect a better running attack tonight. Nuss needs to be highly efficient because he won't get many chances to touch the ball.

LSU hasn't won at Kyle Field since Obama was president.
I'd say reverse those numbers and then we're talkin'.
