Deigo Pavia is a throwback.
In today's NFL terms he's a sidearming, bad bodied, elusive teapot that will only beat you while you continue trying to figure out how he's getting it done.

He's the type of guy that is good at everything he does.
Jerry Kill is riding with him.
Pavia is like a gun for hire with a manager/publicist that chronicles his exploits.

We have supremely better athletes but we don't have Pavia.

I tried to watch it. A couple of episodes in and I just didn’t feel compelled to go further. Maybe I need to try a few more episodes.
It didn't really grab me either until maybe the 4th episode. It's very funny and naughty in places with some surprising situations that develop even deeper as it goes along. Even liked the way it ended.

Offbeat, slow burn dark comedy that will keep you on your toes. There are far too many characters but the storyline doesn't divert from its path. Two seasons of fun on Amazon Prime.


There's little coming out these days that interests me and this was definitely an 8 out of 10 for me but granted...it's not for everyone.

Yeah Hank could transfer to another program. Good luck to him. And Thorne could end up being a GA at UGA. More power to him.

We have to get the most of what we do have as if our starter is done for the season.

Thorne is not extending plays, not even with mostly veteran receivers at HIS choosing.
Thorne can't run around like Bo Nix and is looking more and more like JJ when we ran out of choices.

We haven't run out of choices.

Start Hank with 15 scripted plays to open the game as teams normally do nowadays.

You can bring Thorne in at anytime just like a sixth man in basketball if you must or like a long reliever if your starter just isn't feeling it.

Doesn't have to be all or nothing.

If anything it shows that you are flexible, trying to get the most from your talent instead of being reactionary.

I respectfully disagree.

Think Thorne's feet make him more of a threat that Brown.  But at the end of the day, not sure it matters.  Hank won't be playing next year.

Misleading as the most important player on Vandy’s team came with his head coach and OC. But you knew that. You are just spouting shit. The percentages of teams that are successful using 19 new players is very very low.

Hmm he's not wrong though. 

and you missed the point.

We are two losses away from missing a bowl.  Missouri, Vandy, Kentucky, A&M and Alabama remain on the schedule.  With Thorne's poor decison-making (even if he isn't throwing double-digit picks) what's the best case for that gauntlet?  Upper ceiling?  2-3.  More likely 1-4 and that might be a stretch.  At times there were 6-7 freshmen/sophomores on the field at any given time. Getting their knocks in. 

Why not? 

BTW? The Vandy team that beat Alabama yesterday and looks like a legitimately decent team (Georgia State notwithstanding) was portal built.  It CAN happen overnight. It doesn't take three or four years for a beaver to build a half-legitimate dam.
