Why in the world is Adams still out there?

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@ktfuntweets I went to SMU, I get it. We all know that if he was at UT or Ohio State, this would probably be brushed aside as a past problem. We also know that if everyone had his best interests in mind, he would sit out and stay clean and get rehab for a year without playing.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@ktfuntweets True, but again it is super hard to prove if someone IS a scam artist. Which is why they write these rules up a guilty until proven innocent. Just like how corruption policies in business and government are (supposed to be) written.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@ktfuntweets I gotcha. But what if he was third string? what if he was backup, but he probably wasn’t going to play because they want to preserve his redshirt. What if he bought dell stock before saying how much he loves the computers? It all just doesn’t smell right.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@ktfuntweets I think the bar needs to be altered, because are you going to expel a player for betting on the presidential election? What is the difference between that and a different sport? But there is a line with betting on your team that shouldn’t be crossed.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@ChrisVannini This is a local judge ruling not that the player is innocent but that you can’t cause harm to the player until they are fully judged guilty because the amount of harm is so significant. Short term, will be overruled.

@tedgangi Non maga is pissed at the USA, maga likes baseball not soccer, and everyone hates fifa. I love soccer but this has all been a huge disappointment.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@3rdDegreeNet I agree. Jedi heat map would also show him as an outside back in a back 4

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@3rdDegreeNet Fluid concept. McKinnie is an 8 not a duel pivot and then pulicic shifts more wide left and Tillman stays inside so dest is high like a winger. When in possession is more 4-3-3 single pivot with the ability to go 3-1-4-2

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@joeclowery Just one half, please. Miles is interesting

@StoolSMU Buchele, brashard, rice, calc

@RachelBitecofer The elimination of the department of education had a severe impact on the work program we wanted to involve my disabled son in here in Texas.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@RachelBitecofer My son is super autistic, definitely not mainstreamed, but I have been pleasantly surprised through his entire school career how well he has been treated. I’m sure there are jerks, but most of the younger generation are pretty awesome.

@junior_miller When they were up 13, they missed a ton of open looks. They missed the chance to ive the game. Lots of nervy missed open shots the last two quarters. Kind of expected with a young team.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@ESPN_BillC Was looking at the score :). Watch Raphael tape against smu and Louisville and then compare the smu OL to Cal’s. Massive upgrade at that position. Last year was a young team and still beat Miami and almost made it to conf champ. This team will be better than the cfp team.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@tedgangi The always said LeBron would make a great tight end. Create a minor league for football and that is probably where this belongs

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@joeclowery I thought Tillman was much better when he was further forward. Has a burst of acceleration that is great in the press. He didn’t seem comfortable when he dropped back after the berhalter sub. Mckinnie I love when attacking from deeper positions.

[Jason Benfield @JasonOBenfield]

@peet2 Freeman had nobody else to guard. He needed to be in on mane so that Adams isn’t tracking all the way to the backline.
