Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (They don't get more important than this!)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
the field. I actually think he still ends up at aggy but if not it will be someone we aren’t even taking about right now.
it’s not entirely out of the realm of possibility given Sark’s QB development skills he
As a physician, I always feel you should follow the science. You stated that non medical masks essentially don’t work. I would love to see a well controlled study that scientifically shows that to be the case. If it has not been shown in such a study, it is just hearsay.
- Klubnik or bust? No pressure, right? I'm with you. All chips in.
- If Texas doesn't pull off double-digit wins, anything less than 9-3 and a Big 12 title appearance will result in a meltdown
- The Super Bowl actually reminded me of Tampa Bay's win against Oakland. The Raiders had a high-powered offense, but Tampa Bay's defense shut them down.
- Calvin Johnson is a different guy. Very smart. Quiet. Private. Does his own thing. Not afraid to be different. Retired in his prime. I can see him not wanting to be a part of the norm back then and go to Georgia.
- John Lynch is a 9-time Pro Bowler. He made the Pro Bowl in Denver after being told his career was over. I'm okay with him being in before Woodson.
- RIP @caldonna

Flood has to make it happen.
a. Or Murphy. First one to say yes. But, yeah, I have a man crush on Klubnik.
b. 9-3 is about where I'm at.
c. That one, too, but the Oakland game featured a team with an old quarterback routing a defending champion in Tampa!
d. But, that GT offense was horrible.
e. John Lynch was never better than Darren Woodson a day in his life. Oh, and Woodson has a hand full of rings and was arguably better than Hall of Famers Deion Sanders and Charles Hakey at his peak. He totally transformed the position. He was the first linebacker/safety tweener that took over the sport in the 90s by being able to play like a linebacker in run support, while covering tight endsm, backs and receivers as a cover guy.
Well, of course, he did. Who is suggesting that he didn't?
Re: Calvin Johnson, I can think of one possible reason for picking GT over GA. While GA is a good school, if Calvin wants to major in Engineering, his education would obviously be very important to him; GT has a better Engineering program. Do you know what his desired major is?

Totally fair point.
I found this from a few years ago.
Education important to Calvin Johnson, including getting his degree
Calvin Johnson, who left Georgia Tech after his junior season, would have to go back to Atlanta to finish his degree in building construction.
The three star kid we took in 21 after Milroe peeled off was fine, but that cannot happen two years in a row. The miss rate is too high to sustain that. The goal should be one high percentage war daddy at QB every year.
I don't think I have ever seen @Suchomel publicly downplay a kid and his rankings the way he has with Maalik.
Good question, but we aren’t getting 2 “elite” QBs in the same class, even if we wanted to. None of these 4 kids will go to the same school. Just my opinion.
No. 3 - Nostraketchus on 2022 big dogs ...
Per request from @echeese, I'm going to make a 12-month out set of predictions for the top 20 prospects on my Lone Star recruiting Top 100.
I'm sure none of these will miss. 20 for 20, here I come!
1. QB - Cade Klubnik - Austin Westlake (Prediction: Texas)
2. CB - Denver Harris – North Shore (Prediction: Texas)
3. DT - Bear Alexander - Denton Ryan (Prediction: Georgia)
4. QB - Quinn Ewers - Southlake Carroll (Prediction: Ohio State)
5 QB - Jaydon Blue - Klein Cain (Prediction: Texas)
6. OL - Kam Dewberry - Humble Atascocita (Prediction: Texas A&M)
7 DE - Omari Abor - Duncanville (Prediction: Oklahoma)
8. DE - Malick Sylla - Katy (Prediction: Texas A&M)
9. QB - Conner Weigman - Bridgeland (Prediction: Texas A&M)
10. OL - Devon Campbell - Arlington Bowie (Prediction: Texas)
11. OL - Kelvin Banks - Houston Summer Creek (Prediction: Texas A&M)
12. WR - Evan Stewart - Frisco Liberty (Prediction: Texas)
13. WR - Caleb Burton - Del Valle (Prediction: Ohio State)
14. LB - Harold Perkins - Cypress Park (Prediction: Texas A&M)
15. S - Bryce Anderson - Beaumont Westbrook (Prediction: Texas A&M)
16. DB - Jaylon Guilbeau - Port Arthur Memorial (Prediction: Texas)
17. WR - Armani Winfield - Lewisville (Prediction: Texas)
18. RB - Jamarion Miller - Tyler Legacy (Prediction: To a school that hasn't yet offered)
19. Ath - Brenan Thompson - Spearman (Prediction: Oklahoma)
20. TE - Donovan Green - Dickinson (Prediction: Texas A&M)
This can't continue to happen. Texas has to start bringing the big dogs in the trenches. Flood and Davis need to do work quick.

No. 6 – BUY or SELL …
(Sell) I still like this team to make the Sweet 16.
I don't know what it is that you see that makes you think this.
I'm seeing about 3 or perhaps 4 more wins the rest of this season, if its actually played.
Brady is the goat of goats and that was a bad game from Mahomes, but if those two swap teams, I think you get a much different result. Can't recall when I last saw a good nfl team give up as much pressure as KC. It was like they had Britt Mitchell and Marcus Hutchins at OT. And that Tampa D kicked some serious ass.
- Bucs weren't the defending champs prior to that Super Bowl. Kept losing to the Eagles in the wild card prior to that breakthrough. Tampa's quarterback was Brad Johnson.a. Or Murphy. First one to say yes. But, yeah, I have a man crush on Klubnik.
b. 9-3 is about where I'm at.
c. That one, too, but the Oakland game featured a team with an old quarterback routing a defending champion in Tampa!

e. John Lynch was never better than Darren Woodson a day in his life. Oh, and Woodson has a hand full of rings and was arguably better than Hall of Famers Deion Sanders and Charles Hakey at his peak.

He was the first linebacker/safety tweener that took over the sport in the 90s by being able to play like a linebacker in run support, while covering tight endsm, backs and receivers as a cover guy.
- Technically, Lynch was greater than Woodson on one day of his life, which was Saturday when he made it into the HOF
I'm not downplaying, just saying he's very much unproven.
I bet so.. hell, I can simply give a like and there are usually 4-8 peer reviews on why the like was to soon, or the like was not genuine enough.. or for god sake the like was spelled wrong and had the wrong punctuation.
But I love this place! Thanks Ketch and the boys for always sweating it out in the kitchen and bringing the meat and potatoes to the table. I am thankful.

Cool. Thanks
Rivals' options for burnt orange suck.
#4 Blue is a RB
Interesting not one projected to Bama.
Of the OL's not projected to TEXAS, which do you think is the most "flip able"?
Clearly time to re-stock the OL room
I totally get it from some perspective. He's mostly been a camp kind of eval and you'd like to see some film because it's more of a guarantee on a box.
Flood arrived with Kelvin Banks already leaning towards A&M. Lots of work to do there. I totally hear you, though.
Retiring early I assume he is a saver. how much do you think he banked while he played?
