    If he is really coming into town this weekend I can’t imagine he is going anywhere. If he flipped that would be shocking and devastating.

    Would hate to lose Filsaime. But doesn’t it seem like we lose a high one last minute every year?
    This scenario would be far from a disaster.

    What did Belushi say?

    Did we quit when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

    Hell NO we didn't!

    Ouch, hope your estimate is low, but given current circumstances it does not seem unreasonable either.

    Just have to hope Napier has some rabbits to pull out of a magicians top hat.

    7 - 1/2 long days to go.

    Needs to get going in portal.
    1-2 Ol
    2 WR at least. Pearsall, Douglas, Bowman have to be replaced by experienced players. Cannot count on Freshman and RS Freshman.

    Just got an O line commit in Preferred Walk on:

    More specifically, need OT's. I think we have OG's to compete.
    Also need SEC capable LB's to supplement James.
