S&C program at Kentucky is doing wonders

I know you're making a joke but poor tackling technique across the board. It looked like most of them tried to muscle him down with arm tackles. Basic fundamentals is a lost art. When I watch football with my wife, I tell her all the time...basic fundamentals and assignment football. Just do your assignment and keep basic fundamentals and you will go further then most.

Looking at you Packers TE whose only job was to block but decided to be a hero.

Yeah, mini rant.

I thought IM8's joke was about Elam's size, not the football being played.

So has McElroy decided to be the Skip Bayless of the SEC Network?

He's a senior already? Wow, his recruitment feels like it ended just recently. I haven't heard his name at all since he committed to UK, so I assume he hasn't done much. The big thing for him was that he needed to shed a lot of weight. Put him through Longo Beach!

I tried challenging McElroy to a bet for any amount of money he wanted on Georgia -20... you won't believe this, but he didn't respond to my wager.

Is there actually somebody on the SEC network with more credibility than Skip? Seems like it's where ESPN drops the homerist of homers in where they can collectively milk their prized cow.

Probably because he woke up in the morning and realized how f*cking stupid he sounded the day before.

If he doesn't respond by Monday, challenge him again, this time to find ONE former teammate during his ill-fated stint on the Jets, who doesn't think he is a complete pussy.
