***A&M-Arkansas game thread***

Good evening from AT&T Stadium, which remains absolute hell to get into.
A&M is wearing their home maroon jerseys with white pants; Arkansas is in all-whites with red numbers.
On the injury front, Walter Nolen is back, but McKinnley Jackson is, indeed, out. The suspended players have returned, at lest on offense. I haven't seen the secondary yet.
I'm also pretty sure Gabe Dindy is suited up.

Jimbo press conference comments

First thing he says is Haynes King "is going" Saturday. So it looks like he'll start.
The Aggies used the bye week not just to concentrate on South Carolina, but the six remaining opponents (I'm sure UMass didn't get much of a look).
He says Kam Dewberry graded out pretty well against Alabama, that things are starting to click for him and he'll be in the rotation moving forward.
Hopes the team will build from the Alabama game from a confidence standpoint, that they'll learn from the mistakes and remember the things they did right.
Says Conner Weigman is practicing well, but dodges on whether he might play against SC.
Says McKinnley Jackson made a huge difference to the performance of the defensive front.

Okay well it is almost that time of year. Sunrise today was around 7:30 or so I was told (acutally I looked it up) as I rarely am up that early without a reason on a Saturday. However, I am up at about 6am M-F as the kiddos are off to school by 7am. If they were to take the bus that would pick them up that would be at about 6:30 and it is already totally dark at that time.
If we stayed on DST all year - Sunrise would be as late as 8:30 AM - Odessa TX farther west Sunrise would be at almost 9:00 AM - For Comparison.
Go up north say in the midwest just Northern Michigan then the Sunrise would slide to almost 10:00AM

It is funny how there are outliers out there - In India They are 9 hours and 30 mins ahead of us(Eastern time) - Kathmundu Nepal is 9 hours 45 mins ahead of us. Hence the option of lets split the difference.

I really don't understand why a retired person would give two shits as to what time they get up. Do what your body prefers. In about 2 more years all our kids will be in college - and I doubt I will see the sunrise very often giving me one more reason as to why I wont care what time it is and the only thing I will need to know is when is the A&M game on Saturdays - So I can plan accordingly to tune in in the 2nd quarter when we start to play.

WTF, Jimbo? What now?

Jimbo allegedly skips ESPN pre-game production meeting. All speculation in the article about the reason aside, can we just do the things we’re supposed to do?

Kyrie

He is the gift that keeps on giving. I'm not laughing because he promotes anti-Semitic material. I'm laughing because I dislike the Nets, Kyrie, KD (what a longhorn bitch), and Ben Simmons. Kyrie is basically a Kardashian with a better jumpshot at this point.

Here’s what I’ve been told re: OC

This comes from multiple well placed sources “at the highest levels of your university.” Wait, that line has been used. Scratch that. Go with VERY well-placed sources. Some of you know who they are and can back me on this.
“It’s happening. Changes are coming.” I was left with the impression that it will happen swiftly after the conclusion of the season.
Note “changes”. Not a change. If these guys are right, and it would be incredible if they’re not, there will be a new OC, a new scheme and changes at position coach.
Jimbo’s on board. I figured the desire to win would outweigh everything else and that seems to be the case.
