I’d like to thank everyone for coming, we’ve had some time to look at guys in organized drills and process some of things we were able to do in the draft and free agency, and we feel pretty good about where we are as a football team right now. Vince will be available a little […]

The Big 12 had its worse draft ever. Even Mike Reinfeldt and Jeff Fisher think so. It took 36 selections before the second Big 12 player was drafted. This is from a conference with four of Top 10 in the final AP rankings. Pathetic.

Powerhouse programs like Troy, Vanderbilt, Delaware, and Tennessee […]

Seriously, Jeff? Another running back?
The Titans came into this draft knowing they needed a playmaker at wide receiver. Someone who can actually get separation from the defender in man coverage. Someone who can actually get open deep.

With the 2008 NFL draft is coming up later this month, here is a look back at the first eight drafts of this decade, and what collegiate teams were perceived by the NFL to have the deepest talent pools to draw from.

So you want to win a MNC? One thing we’ve learned the last few years is that you need lots and lots of NFL talent to win a MNC. The 2005 Texas team was loaded with future pros up and down the roster, everywhere except LB. Our 2005 nickel back, Aaron Ross, […]

If you’re already experiencing pangs of football withdrawal in the wake of the Giant’s DL sticking it up the Patriot’s ass, I rented a flick from Netflix that may ameliorate your cravings for an hour or so after Signing Day is properly dissected.
The documentary Two Days In April follows four college seniors (Travis Wilson, Clint […]

Last thing I want to see is New England win another Super Bowl and their model-y good looks QB win yet another MVP. I don’t just drink the Hatorade, I own stock. I hate those bastards, and even more their fans. But let’s pull a Giuliani and make this tragedy about us.
