So he has like 6 years of eligibility left

Can bet he is paying close attention to the Pavia ruling because could lead to some additional eligibility for him.

hybrid defensive end/OLB. so basically LBer who is also a pass rush specialist. kind of how the Vikes play Greenard and Van Ginkel though bandit is typically more DE oriented.

hybrid defensive end

I figured but had never seen it listed that way. Usually they just pick LB or DE.

you mean you don't like them being listed as bandit, wolf, husky, star and rover? lol

Yes, he actually references that ruling in his X feed as the reason he’s going to play one more year. Could be a really nice addition at arguably the biggest position of need we had.

Don't they typically call this EDGE today?

a lot of teams do. think this is a 4-2-5 thing where the positions are a lot more hybrid so they used different names. i think it's silly but whatever. guess it makes you sound super innovative if you use a different name or something

Sounds like he'd be a very good pickup, but don't we also still need a MLB ("bank robber")?

These monikers remind me of when my Dad and uncles thought CB radios were the greatest form of communication ever invented.

Do they still have their 8 tracks? Good times, until you played it more than a few times!

And they were pissed when "Convoy" didn't win a Grammy.

I inherited my Dad’s 8 track collection when he passed.

You can buy used 8 track players on EBay.

This one’s for you pops -

Cool memory.

What a fun time to be a kid.

Did you have a CB handle?

He didn't do cb. Probably was pining for the freedom of the open road.

Also remember China syndrome, midway, and first blood.

And here's the movie poster.



RIP Kris Kristofferson who passed away just a few months ago. Multi-talented singer/songwriter/actor. The Silver Tongued Devil and I still ranks near the top of my list of that particular folk/country.

And Ali Mcgraw.

And Ali Mcgraw.

Still alive! She possessed those rare good looks that could be both innocent and smoldering at the same time.

I don't think I could have predicted this thread morphing into a thread about cb radios and trucker movies. That said....I did used to have a cb radio in my car in high school.
