Random observation: This year opens with no QB's on day one and no QB's on day four.

Monday, July 18​

LSU (12:35 p.m.) -- Coach Brian Kelly | WR Jack Bech, LB Mike Jones, Jr., DE BJ Ojulari
Ole Miss (2:30 p.m.) -- Coach Lane Kiffin | WR Jonathan Mingo, DE Cedric Johnson, OL Nick Broeker
Missouri (3:55 p.m.) -- Coach Eli Drinkwitz | WR Barrett Banister, DB Martez Manuel, DL Isaiah McGuire
 
Is it just me, or does it appear to you that Kiffin here is gesturing with his hands similar to CNS?

Idk, this is probably the first interview I've seen of his since he left here.

Odd coincidence: I happen to be working in Oxford today, getting some student apartments back online... Lol

 


Atta baby, William. Gonna be a fun one to watch.

I'm sure William Anderson will be the focus of a lot of double and triple teams this year, so I'm not expecting him to kill it stat wise like the last couple of years. I say expect, but I'm not saying he won't. Just expecting every team to not let him beat them. That being said, I think it opens up Dallas Turner for a breakout season. There is zero way you block both, so I imagine they'll focus on the older and more known played in Anderson. Buy that Turner stock if you haven't already.

@It Takes Eleven couldn't help but think of you.


When you show up to a bar in a loin cloth, @TerryP I'm always going to be overdressed.

This story gets a little more wayward with every reference. For the record, I met with the board of directors of a Charleston bank, and then I scraped up TerryP and hauled him to his favorite dive bar/investment property. I dropped the coat and the tie, but short of finding Hulk-like strength to rip up my shirt, it was what it was.

I will say I'm much more casual than when we had that afternoon, Terry. I've moved from heavy to medium starch.
 
When I heard Leach going off about neck ties I started wondering which industry would be the last bastion. I had to spend part of the morning of the 3rd at Roper and one of the things that struck me was the lack of the ol' dress shirt and tie normally found in hospital surroundings. That led me to thinking about which industries still "required" that type of attire. They are fewer and farther between with each passing day.

Yeah back in the 1900's when I was in high school, I worked at the local K-mart. All men in all departments were required to wear a tucked in shirt and neck tie.
Casual Friday's: you don't have to wear the tie, but it's still business attire.

Casual Friday's today: no open toed sandals or flip flops.

I worked at the Tuscaloosa store while I was at UA, specifically the garden center. I didn't wear a button down, tie, and the apron fully in because I was working outside. The district manager came by one day with the store manager. She stopped and gave me the stare down; I didn't have to dress any differently though.
