Spend a few minutes watching those hogs. Bennett is a stud but it all starts up front. Very athletic group. DL is pretty damn salty as well.

Scored 17 in both games this week, wins against Florida and LSU.

Despite my hatred of the Astros, I thought some of y'all might like this. The artist did a Johnny Football print that I bought 10 years ago, so I'm on his mailing list. He's no Benjamin Knox, but still thought I would share. Link is below the pic.

Both are well-established, and you know one of them well.

Former Arkansas and All-SEC Jalen Catalon is one of the visitors. In 2022, Catalon was hurt this season and didn't do much, but in the two previous years he tallied 145 tackles and 5 INT.

Al Walcott from Baylor is the other. Last season, he had 82 tackles, 2 sacks, 3 forced fumbles and a pick.

Tore my Achilles Saturday and wondering if anyone has a knee scooter they can loan me.

Calls the hook and ladder with 2nd and 17 2:12 to go in the 4th. Picks up 14.

Coaches without any fear.

are you kidding me?

BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Texas A&M head football coach Jimbo Fisher announced the hiring of Bobby Petrino as the new Aggie offensive coordinator Friday afternoon. In 2021, ESPN ranked Petrino as one of the top college football coaches during the past 50 years and is noted for his offensive prowess.

“I am very happy to add Bobby as our offensive coordinator,” Fisher said. “I always had tremendous respect for him as a head coach, offensive coordinator and play caller. He is one of the best minds in college football. Bobby has a reputation for developing players and we are extremely excited to have him on our staff.”

Petrino most recently served as the head coach at FCS Missouri State (2020-22) and also adds FBS level experience as the head coach at Louisville (2003-06, 2014-18), Western Kentucky (2013) and Arkansas (2008-11), compiling a 119-56 record through 14 seasons. He took 11 of the teams to bowl games and finished in the top 25 seven times, with three top-six finishes (2004, 2006, 2011). Petrino tutored 2016 Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson.

In his first tenure with Louisville, Petrino compiled a 41-9 ledger which included an 11-1 record in 2004. That season, Louisville led the country in total offense (539.0) and scoring offense (49.8), while posting 50-or-more points in seven games and setting an NCAA record by scoring 55-or-more points in five straight games.

As the head coach at Arkansas (2008-11), Petrino fashioned a 34-17 overall mark with his final three seasons compiling a 29-10 record. His 2010 Arkansas squad reached the Sugar Bowl and the 2011 edition finished 11-2 with a No. 5 final national ranking after a Cotton Bowl victory.

In 2013, Petrino was the head coach at Western Kentucky and promptly led the team to an 8-4 record while setting a school record for total offense (5,502 yards).

Petrino also boasts NFL coaching experience, serving as the Atlanta Falcons’ head coach in 2007 and as an NFL offensive coordinator with the Jacksonville Jaguars (2001), while also working with Jaguar quarterbacks (1999-01).


At the collegiate level, Petrino has worked with quarterbacks, wide receivers and tight ends, and coordinated offenses for Idaho (1990-91), Arizona State (1992-93), Nevada Reno (1994), Utah State (1995-97), Louisville (1998) and Auburn (2002). He helped the Auburn Tigers to a 9-4 record and a 5-3 mark in the SEC, finishing No. 14 in the Associated Press Poll in 2002. Petrino worked with quarterback Jake Plummer at ASU before Plummer advanced to the NFL. At Nevada Reno, Petrino had the nation’s No. 2 passing and total offensive unit. As the offensive coordinator with the Utah State Aggies in 1996, Petrino set school records for total offense (468.5) and passing yards (317.5). His 1998 Louisville offense would lead the FBS in scoring and total offense.

Petrino is the son of legendary Carroll College coach Bob Petrino Sr. and the younger Petrino got his coaching start as a graduate assistant in 1983 for his father in Helena, Montana. After one season with Weber State as a graduate assistant, Petrino returned to coordinate the offense for Carroll College from 1985-86.

The younger Petrino played for his father at Carroll, twice earning NAIA All-America honors and helping lead the squad to three straight conference championships. He was named the league’s MVP in 1981 and 1982. He also played four years of basketball at Carroll while earning his degree in physical education with a minor in mathematics in 1983.


Petrino and his wife, Becky, have four children: Kelsey, Nick, Bobby and Katie, along with eight grandchildren.

My wife and I lost a 28-year-old daughter, Allana, last year to cancer. Maybe my heart is partially made of stone as I see her riding a gold chariot exploring the universe, and I celebrate her short life. My wife has severe PTSD. Irony is I have helped many people with PTSD, but I can't and don't know how to help my wife. Unfortunately, not everyone who has PTSD will heal because the chain linking the person to the trauma is too strong to be broken. Out of the blue I told her today to buy a couple puppies. Perhaps they will help her somewhat by making the world less cruel.

For those in the know, perhaps you can tell me what the future might look like for us. I am done grieving, but my wife has a large hole in her heart. I have lost a daughter and my wife as well in a sense. Her situation is WIP thus I do not have a reservoir of wisdom to guide us. I do a lot of life support chores for her. I am an excellent cook, so I am her Iron Chef. I try hard to please her with good dinners. I am fortunate that I am retired thus I have the time and energy to keep the household moving forward. However, I am at a loss on how to help her emotionally and mentally. I would appreciate if anyone can paint the way of ahead with candor. I wish I had the power to right every wrong in the world.

When I listen to this song, I imagine Allana riding in a gold chariot discovering the wonders of the universe without limitations. Waiting for her loved ones to cross the bridge in order to be with her so she will never be alone again.

Thank you for the feedback. Perhaps something will click and illuminate the path we must take.

I know I have posted this before but it is playoff season so suck it up. Feb. 1972 I lived in Grand Junction Colorado. Everyone there hated the Cowboys. Don't know why. The Cowboys had never won a championship but they certainly hated the Cowboys. Everyone did. Everyone gave me shit all year long. We had lost to Baltimore the year before in the Super Bowl Craig Mortin wS the QB. Roger kicked ass in the SB 1972. 24-3; The only SB that no team had ever not scored a touchdown until the Patriots matched this Years later. Getting back. ...when Dallas won when everyone hated them in 1972. Me living in in a place that hated Texans That was the best day in my life. (Next to my children being born) F my ex

Didn’t watch the series but have been listening to the Audible books recently. Narrator is good but everyone sounds like they are ancient. Most of the women sound like old hags with big noses and warts on their face.

So who is the hottest female in the show? The queen, Sansa, the wildling girl, Shay?

Did he do anything in the AA bowl yesterday? I turned it on for a bit and the Alabama committed running back was putting on a show, he's going to be a stud for sure.

Will be one and done in the playoffs as usual. Dak has thrown interceptions in seven straight games. The defense isn’t playing like they were in the beginning of the season. I just don’t see this team going far. Wouldn’t be surprised if they lost to the Bucs in the first round which is why I’m calling it.

Another year and business as usual for Jerry Jones

JFF would top the list but i have another #2

We've all heard of it. But it is one the quintessential battles, victories, and stories of the Vietnam War. Trying to take Dong Ap Bia (aka Hamburger Hill), 3000 foot peak on one side of A Shau Valley so that we could slow or even stop the flow of NVA, weapons, and supplies coming down the Ho Chi Minh Trail just a couple of miles away in Laos. To those who served.

Anyway, a great article on the battle I thought many might enjoy reading. I'm going to hyperlink it as copying it in its original format doesn't work well. Here you go:

I'm sure you've probably posted answers on these somewhere, Mark, but since I am an Old Ag, (and evidently satisfied with mediocrity with our program most of the time. I didn't know that until I read another thread this morning...) could you please respond to my queries?

1. Early enrollees?
2. Transfers reporting for duty?
3. Players expected to be out i.e. injuries, conflicts, etc.?

Thank you in advance.

Will be glad when this is over. Living with this has not been pleasant. On top of it I have been flooded with TCU National Champions sales people on the phone constantly. You have to buy this for your store…..in case they win

A friend of mine was on a plane to Steamboat via LA and said Bjork was on board. Wonder if he’s going to the NC game and they are going to talk to some coaches?

What up? How'd our guys do?

How long before Petrino gets on campus and starts rolling out his playbook? I would think he would want to get the QB room learning his offense and have wide receivers learning routes. Or do we think he’s just going to use Jimbo’s offense and try to call better plays? Also, how long before we learn Addazio’s fate, whether staying or leaving?

Get shot 9 times.

Old man doesn't play

It is concerning that its so quiet regarding who
our targets are and whether or not we are making any progress with them. I know If Mark knew anything
He would be passing it on.

It is absolutely essential that we add quality players at this position.
IMO If Santucci doesn't bring in at least two more quality Lbs from the portal then he is failing
at the recruiting aspect of his job.
