Now I may be an idiot, but there is one thing I am not, sir, and that, sir, is an idiot.

At first, I was like damn that sucks. After reminded myself he may very well be a 2 yr project before seeing the field, I was like this may be a good thing.

He's also a JUCO.  If the project lasts 2 years, they completely wasted a scholarship.

I just hope this means Young is a lock, and Diamond will come along as well.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

For some reason, other boards seem to think that if this kid is put on the OL, there may be some team issues. Not sure what thats about considering most cruiten boards project him as an OL. Me thinks some have fallen off their rocker.

It seems I read that Watson didn't even play real football till his senior year? Something about him being from England and playing that fake shit.

Plus, investigating crimes with Holmes didn't leave much time for football either.

I liked this guy because he's big, and he's JUCO.  He is or should be physically mature enough to play now, and we need that on OL.  I don't like having to go the JUCO route, but sometimes it's necessary.  And no, you don't croot JUCO's as "2 year projects".  You croot JUCOs because you've got a need NOW.

Yup. JUCO 'cruitin is for immediate help, not for project players. Menelik is not a project player, IMO.
