The answer is obviously no. That’s not what’s interesting. What’s interesting is that ESPN made this a cover story and I’ve seen similar articles in 3 other places. It’s intetesting that this is the current talking point.

I quoted the headline, and left it up to most people to draw their own deductions because most people on this site are adults. You aren't, so I'm not concerned. Which is why I have you on ignore and almost never read what you write, but I made the mistake of clicking "show" on this thread. I'll be careful not to let that happen again anytime soon.windywave wrote: Then you should have said that in the first place.

I can't tell if you're a perpetual troll or just confirming a caricature.

Prof, stop with the passive aggression and write a few syllables of summary. Your habit annoys everyone on here.

Now that Oliver has said this you have to wonder when he start sitting games out. Of course there is already a claque of writers and broadcasters (the ones eager to set fire to the beat that feeds them) goading him into doing just that.

If he's injured, he should sit to protect himself...and while that may happen (Fournette and Clowney had underwhelming, injury-plagued final seasons) I'd assume he'll play otherwise.long green wrote:Now that Oliver has said this you have to wonder when he start sitting games out.

Re: Can H-Town DT Contend for Heisman?
ESPN still has him ranked as the #3 most likely winner

Ain't going to happen. But a monster season could get him an invite to NY
