It didn't seem like it. I was amazed. Tupou and Parker had to have been out there at DT 90% of the time.

Just a quick thanks to those of you who've said congrats. Rams were able to dominate the 2nd half last night.
Spruce and Sefo are going to put up some points this year, just have to find some swagger for the rest of the team. I truly think the buffs will find it. Good luck the rest of the year.

Thanks! I mean go **** yourself. I mean thanks!
Good win for you guys--the Rams physically dominated. Good luck with the rest of the season. Go **** yourself.

Yep. He also out-recruited MacIntyre. That Alabama connection was no accident in bringing in Dee Hart.

Recruited him out of high school.
That really stuck out to me with them being down by 10 on 2 different occasions and then especially over the last quarter and a half when they took complete control of the game on both sides of the ball. And this all aside from the obvious of their running game steamrolling our defense. Their 2 backs each averaged over 6 yards per carry, that should never happen against an MWC team.

Congratulations CSU, good one. I hope you guys have a good season.
Sparkles, like Don Shula and Bill Parcells, found something that worked. i.e. the ability to run at will on us. Sparkles didn't stop trying very much once the gap protection completely broke down.
Without PRich we don't seem to be much of a team. Spruce played well. PRich gave us TDs that I don't think Spruce can give us.
Black uniforms make everyone look more athletic.

What was high risk about either?
Bibbs came from JC, which he earned his associates degree in one year, then came to the Fort for another year which showed his great commitment.
Hart, one time minor problem with the law, paid the price. Graduated from Alabama in three years, which in my opinion shows a lot more about his character and motivation then one mistake.
Again, where is the "high risk"? Don't put labels on people if you don't know the situation.
My sense with Hart at least was his injury history made him a risk, not his character or academics.

Fair enough. I would counter with, he played last year, albeit mostly ST. And, considering McElwains connections with Bama, I would guess he received good evaluations on his health.

Yeah, obviously in hindsight his health turned out to be a non-issue, in week 1 at least.
It is interesting he basically doubled his score. 18 to 23 moves him from the 36th percentile to the 68th.
Why didn't he appeal the ruling that invalidated his score?

The way I understand it, your only recourse is to retake the test, if you don't match the higher score you are automatically deemed to have cheated and you lose all eligibility. Too big a risk to take. So he went JC.
Amazing the NCAA has this rule, "improve your score 5 pts and we assume you cheated".
5 points is a huge increase. The average person who gets an 18 on the first test gets a 19 on the retest.
The numbers just don't add up. He is so dumb he is almost in the bottom third of all test takers but so smart he hit the 90%+ of retaker score increases.

Now you just want to insult, whatever. You've never heard of people taking a practice test, doing poorly so they choose to study?
90%+, so his odds of improving were about 10%, still plausible.
He's either smart enough to score a 23 or smart enough to figure out a way to cheat on the ACT. Either way, he paid a high price for an unproven allegation (sound familiar?).

Why don't you let it go and leave our Ram friend to strut around with his chest all puffed out like some banty rooster.
The world will bitch slap CSU again soon enough.
Says the guy who thinks going from an 18 to a 23 is "basically doubling" :lol:
I do love the ACT smack though.
I don't think you understand how the test scoring works. I explained how his percentile nearly doubled.
