I don't think it's unreasonable to assume we're a 3rd tier ACC progam at the moment and it has nothing to do with what the media says. To my way of thinking you have FSU & Clemson who both have recruited & played to the level of a top 20 national program. In the second tier, you have Virginia...

Well, you called the #6 pick. We'll see about #38. LOL, we may also get a chance to see if Dallas will actually take Johnny Football.

That's just 2 more people in the way to interrupt the mesh between QB and B back.

It is indeed interesting. Essentially, they're just doing the same thing as mentioned in the article that Jimmie Johnson came up with to defend the option. Everyone fills a gap to try & clog the middle. VT just takes that a step further and often blitzes into that gap trying to come through...

No, that's what the "Dead" means. If he drops "dead" from your roster, you take the hit that year. Good conversation though. Thanks for the link and the good back & forth. I learned something today. I had no idea that Dallas was able to sign Romo to a deal and "back load" a portion of the...

Thanks for the link. That data is better than the one I was looking at. I didn't realize they were able to move $5 million of the signing bonus back onto 2013's cap. But you don't get to spread that $11.6 million hit out over multiple years. It hits your cap that year. No team could absorb...

That was a really well-written and researched article. Thanks for posting it.

Except your cap hit on Romo wouldn't be $5 million per year. That's my point. Your cap hit would be something like $14 million per year.

No, I get your point and I didn't mean to suggest you were predicting it. And FWIW, I think Jerry has proven to be "questionable" in his decision-making. There's no way I'd have locked up Romo for that kind of money for 6 years. But they did. But the point I was making is this: they have to...

Not me. Make him a member of the faculty if we're more worried about graduation rates than winning games. The football coach should absolutely have the goal of graduating every player he can graduate. But his first priority is to win football games. Otherwise, hire one of the nerds from the...

*sigh* Jerry Jones may be a lot of things but one thing he isn't is completely stupid. The $13.5 million they just gave Romo as a signing bonus, he's going to try & recoup. That still leaves $41.5 million in guaranteed money, spread out over the next 4 years. That's over $10 million per...

I don't personally think we're there yet, but if we truly ARE at the point where we need to hire an ex-player who may/may not even be coaching just to coach OL in this system.....if that's the only way you can fill out you coaching staff...then the system is a problem.

Fair enough. But Nick Saban begs to differ. And you don't draft a guy in the first round and sit him for 4 years. Dallas has $55 million in guaranteed money due to Romo and their restructuring of his contract to minimize cap hit goes out the window if they try to cut him. Every bit of that...

You & I will just have to disagree with that. Personally, I don't see Manziel making it past Cleveland @ #4 and he may even go @ 3 to Jacksonville. But I really just don't see any way that Dallas is going to draft a QB, given their other more pressing needs and the fact that they just committed...

I don't disagree that we can't but unfortunately, we do have wide splits with our current OLine.

Nice interview. Thank you for posting that.

I have no pull personally. But I certainly do congratulate you on raising a fine young woman there who wants to cheer on the brave & bold! Best wishes to you & your daughter.

Would you agree that anything less than 8 wins with the schedule we have this year is seriously underperforming?

I can think of a lot of ways we could be worse. If JT continues to put the ball on the ground, then we will be much worse at QB.

FWIW, I wouldn't be surprised if you see Golden and Myles Autrey both back there returning kicks this year. That's quite a dynamic duo.
