Quote from: Hawg Red on Today at 06:35:47 amWhy are y'all so butt hurt about this? Lol

They both agreed UNC was the best spot for him and then one of the guys even had Arkansas as the #2 spot.

Please, let's be less insecure here. There was no disrepect. Do fall back into our old, sensitive ways.

You are wasting your time telling people around here to be less insecure.

Quote from: CDBHawg on Today at 11:34:13 amI believe he'll play 8 or 9 guys. Just as Muss did. I also believe we'll have more than 8 or 9 scholarship players.

I don't think we'll hand out 4 scholarships to walk-ons either.

Just to get the view clear, you're saying that 10-13 will be just as highly recruited as 1-9? Or will they be Jospeh Pinion/Darrian Ford types? Slightly lower down but still guys who from all indications think very highly of their ability to get on the floor with the best.

EDIT for Clarification: In other words, Muss had that roster 1-13 full of guys who on a given day could be as good as any other guy on the roster. That can create problems. I have no knowledge of what will happen, but I doubt Cal will do that. If I'm right, that means the distinction between a Lawson Blake and a Denijay Harris isn't so great anymore. Walk on or not, they're guys who would be happy to have a scholarship at a Power conference school but deep down know there's not much chance of meaningful minutes of game action.

Took a lowball shot at the 5/10 SBUX $75 calls for a dime yesterday and got lucky with Howard Shultz sounding off on the company's need to change strategy. I figure the SBUX CEO will be out within 6 months and Shultz might come out of the bullpen again. Stock popped today and I closed the trade at $0.44.

Been on the lookout for sell off stocks with cheap out of the money options that could in the least get a short term pop from a rebound move.

There are winners from spring college football transfer portal window

Here are some of them

by:Pete Nakos



QuoteMore than a week after the spring transfer portal window closed in college football, the final pieces are coming off the board.

The 2023-24 academic year proved to be one of the busiest ever in the age of the transfer portal. The spring window did not offer the most talent but it was filled with depth players. Defensive tackles were at a premium:

Auburn
Transfer Commits: WR KeAndre Lambert-Smith (Penn State), OL Ronan Chambers (Akron), DL Philip Blidi (Indiana), DL Isaiah Raikes (USC), EDGE Keyron Crawford (Arkansas State)

Freeze did not target a quarterback this spring, however, the Auburn coach picked up a handful of impact players. The Tigers add Lambert-Smith.

Colorado

Miami
Transfer Commits: RB Damien Martinez (Oregon State), WR Sam Brown (Houston), DL Simeon Barrow (Michigan State), LB Jaylin Alderman (Louisville), CB D'yoni Hill (Marshall)

Miami's transfer portal plans were somewhat on pause this winter as the Hurricanes went all-in on Washington State transfer quarterback Cam Ward.

Oklahoma
Transfer Commits: OL Branson Hickman (SMU), DL Damonic Williams (TCU), DL Jermayne Lole (Louisville)

Oklahoma knew it needed to add proven talent in the trenches this spring before officially making the move to the SEC. The Sooners delivered. Hickman can be immediately slated into the starting mix

UCF
Transfer Commits: QB Jacurri Brown (Miami), RB Peny Boone (Louisville), WR Jacoby Jones (Ohio), OL Keegan Smith (Central Michigan), EDGE Nyjalik Kelly (Miami), CB Tre'quon Fegans (USC), S Sheldon Arnold II (East Tennessee State University), S Cedrick Hawkins (Ohio State)

As much as the transfer portal is about adding talent that can make an immediate difference on the field, UCF picked up a few pieces for the future, too. In Year 2 in the Big 12, the Knights want to take a step forward and compete for a conference title. Boone was the 2023 Mid-American Conference Player of the Year and rushed for 1,400 yards and 15 touchdowns.

On a scale between Qaintance, Garrison and Davis, how sure are we that we have Pryor?

Surprised by all these strong opinions about how many scholarship guys we have. Cal will get the amount of guys he thinks is best. No need to fret

Quote from: runninrazorback on Today at 11:13:45 amdidn't Wilms hit over 300 last year at Mizzuck?  That one blows my mind

Little over .290 in SEC games. I didn't believe it either but checked.  You would think he would have been leadoff at Mizzou with his speed but only led off a small number of games compared to hitting in the lower half of the order.  We took him and Wagner as older players and their experience had been with bad programs KU and Mizzou and lower level Tarleton. 

I still think something seemingly ignored in the criticism of NT is the players who decided to go pro UCA listed.  It's a tricky business trying to recruit to college baseball.  What makes DVH's run so remarkable.  I guess someone who knows details of the incoming, transfers and never made it to campus could make up an analysis/critique of where DVH and NT may have gone wrong in their offensive roster building. 

We are where we are now.  Stovall-Ben-Aloy-Holt-JSL can produce offense.  SEC pitching may have caught up to Aloy.

White is coming on recently. 2-7 in the SC series.  1-4 vs UF.  5-10 vs UK.

Diggs of course has the potential. 

Get through these last two SEC series and to a regional where the opponents aren't as familiar with us even if they have their data and scouting.  The ridiculous NWA wind should be calmer and temps finally decent for baseball and hitting by then.

Quote from: Darren DeLoach on Today at 10:57:35 amCoach literally stated he may only take 8-9 with 10 being the maximum.

Wants GA's and assistants that have played pro level ball and can practice with the team.

He's the coach.  He has proven he knows what he is doing.  Personally, I like my approach better.  But they don't pay me 8 million a year for my opinion.  ;D
