Tigers, but no superstars.

There you go.

Is Elston petty enough to have that be a LSU jab? 100% no but funny to imagine

Freeman is up now

Carter Karels foregoes the opportunity to ask him if he likes Anime

Rover is Sniper.

Finkle is Einhorn.

 

[NDdomer2]

Hansen probably cant push just one button at a time with his fingers.

Finkle is Einhorn.

Kyle Hamilton is.... a man!

This MF'er blocked me on Twitter. I hate that I still listen to his Pod but I can't resist. He just had Malik on who made some jabs at BK. How the eff does BD have his own crew, much less credentials to ND?

I very shortly considered throwing a fit with SI. Then I realized BD is as much a money driver as I am. When he meets my level, they'll can his ass. He's garbage and Vince D isn't any better.

 

[pumpdog20]

I've basically steer clear of podcasts that have Malik on it. He's still extremely bitter.

 

[BabyIrish]

I actually heard drsikell ask a question in a presser this year. I was completely stunned. Haven’t heard him since and I don’t expect him too.

The only thing I’ll ever read of his are game/practice evaluations. I read his practice evaluation of Book for the senior bowl. Pretty informative. But I won’t read his opinion pieces.

Too funny, and ironically he did show up to this one and asked a dumb question... and Rees looked super annoyed.

Was Tommy annoyed or confused, because he had no idea who BD is.

I can't find his question anywhere. Anyone know what he asked? Bonus points for video link.

He asked him a very long question about QB recruiting and evaluating using film vs in person seeing someone throw. And then basically how did COVID restrictions affect recruiting this year. Tommy just had a stank face on while it was being asked and then called him “coach” before answering. Also, he has bleached hair now which looks terrible.

Yea, the side eye at the beginning of the question was golden.

And I can't believe Tommy bleached his hair for his vacation.... Interesting look to say the least.

We just need a little Vinny Cerrano chutzpuh and some help from admissions on foreign languages and we will be grabbing seven five stars immediately

There's a reason he can't/isn't allowed to contribute to any site that requires a subscription. I can't imagine that he's making ends at Fan Nation.

I was still surprised when he & Prister joined together to do a pod for the Clemson game this past season. That was out of left field and never revisited again.

About time this guy retired tbh

Maybe it was: "Well, let's see if he's changed. No? Good bye."

I wonder was there some obligation between their two publishers to make this happen.
