State Sec. Rubio: “Imagine if instead of spending billions on weapons, Iran spent that money on its people. They’d have a much different country.”

Much ado about nothing here, and certainly nothing that will drop Reese out of top-5.
Bain is a DL. Spent entire career working as DL and doing DL drills.
Reese was a LB. Did LB drills. Lot of these workouts new to him. Film doesn’t lie. He’s a dominant player.
Flip this and have Bain do backer work and he’d look similarly out of place
@ESPNAssignDesk You do not have permission to use it — as I’ve told you numerous times in DMs. Shouldn’t have laid off all those reporters if you wanted locker room content.
We’ve joked about this statement for a while now. But it’s time we officially announce the retirement of @SEC_Exposed. There is nothing left to expose. SEC is overrated, always was, and finally the current system has EXPOSED it. Our presence is no longer needed.

Here's the problem with last night's overtime interception. On December 7, this was ruled an interception on the field. Replay review overturned it to a catch. NFL V.P. of instant replay Mark Butterworth defended the decision in a pool report. By January 17, the standard changed.
My theory is that the NCAA asked Miami to tell their fans to wear orange so that they blend in with the Indiana red so it doesn’t look like a home game for the Canes.
@ZoneblitzCom As for Derrick Henry, I would point you to the team’s penultimate possession against New England. There are several other examples of situations in which many believe the ball should’ve been in Henry’s hands but wasn’t. Hindsight’s 20/20, though.
@ZoneblitzCom It’s less about football or strategy and more about relationships. Monken and Harbaugh would sing Lamar’s praises to media, but there were reports Lamar didn’t appreciate Monken’s style of communication.
@ZoneblitzCom I’m sure both coaches tried their best, but huge age and personality differences seemed to make them incompatible with their star player.
