# | What Culture is Ferggie to shape? Someone nametag and I.D. it for, me❓ That star TE was committed to us at one point :(
Beefy linemen are the hardest ones to find in the portal, on either side of the ball.
This one's about as long as the one in Jonestown.
He wants a team like Penn State. Unfortunately we had APR who could pressure the QB, but we didn't have an all amercian TE and better than average QB at the same time. We also had Tuten, but no depth back there. He wants to be Penn State without Penn State talent.
This is a good question. I think there's been a disconnect between what Pry says he wants and what he actually has. He seems to want a team that will impose its will on both sides of the ball: a powerful run-first offense behind a big Wisconsin-style offensive line that forces the other team to try to defend the line of scrimmage, and a Bud Foster style defense that pressures the opponent and creates turnovers. We don't have that now. In terms of scheme, the current defense is closer to what Pry wants than the offense, but then he fired his DC.
We can talk about poor coaching and poor recruiting, but after 3 years in the modern transfer portal era you would think Pry would have a team that is closer to looking like what he says he wants. We've been bringing in a lot of skill players and not so many beefy linemen. Pry is also acknowledging now that the team needs better S&C, but then he promotes someone from within so how much of a change are we going to get?
I haven't commented in this thread yet, so here's #875.
Nah Dematrius "Dee" Davis
we've come a long way from just reaching 25!
Just commenting to get us to 1000. I've talked enough shit in here already lmao
Right!?! Had I attributed the challenge to the correct poster initially it probably wouldn't have resulted in 4 extra comments :p
I'd love to have Dan Quinn back in my life (a very very very very very miserable Cowboys fan)
Hm...which decommit was that? The rb that went to psu?

# | What Culture is Ferggie to shape? Someone nametag and I.D. it for, me❓ I was at that game and remember coaches looking for something during a media timeout. We all laughed and thought it was a contact. Then we heard on the radio after the game that they were looking for part of a FINGER!

Am I doing this right?
So, when we hired Jim Knowles as our new DC he mentioned he left something in his hotel room on Monday and asked if we could swing by and pick it up?
A defensive coach can't give up a 3rd and 23 to a 5'06 receiver in the Super Bowl. Can't do it. You can't get beat by Julian fucking Edelman in that spot. Can't. Without pads he looks like a guy at your high school reunion. You can't lose a super bowl to that guy on 3rd and forever. And that's exactly what Quinn fucking did. 3rd and 5? sure. And yes I am aware Tom fucking Brady threw the pass. But you can't lose to a guy under 5'09 in that spot- or any spot in football unless it's barry sanders.
Or maybe when noncommmercial (just transit), it doesn't list on FlightAware? idk
I think is true...if operating under FAR-135, I don't believe that a publicly-available flight plan has to be filed if not carrying revenue passengers.
But I am not an actual pilot, just a Holiday Inn Express type, so those more knowledgeable feel free to clarify.
Was quietly hoping Nosal would have been the OL hire. His OLs looked good against Penn State and Texas A&M this season even if they didn't dominate the line of scrimmage. Much more cohesive and fluid than the dumpster fire here.
Ah- that makes more sense. I read it as it left OSU, went to FTY, and then BCB. My bad.
I thought we had a better chance of an upset than a few teams, so not at 47. Had two I missed ranked higher, so could have done better there.......
Yep - Franklin did what all great recruiters do- he lied to him and told him he would get a chance to be a QB.
