No doubt...you would think that with all the research dollars that pour into AU someone could discover a cure for JABA!

I disagree...a press conference would have fed the media fire more. Best to put this to bed and move on.

When you do something that no one else is doing...it is the definition of unique. I loved the way it was handled and presented...and it looks like the recruits felt the same way.

Yes he does...saw him in 1972 at Legion Field...with Three Dog Night!

Can we just get him for S & C coach...

Actually, I think Harsin early on has said that he will not be talking about the vaccine status of himself or anyone else in the program...it's private. The fact that the University may have a new policy has no bearing on his initial stance on the subject. The press can ask all kinds of questions, but if it involves his or anyone else's vax status, the answer should be the same. To do otherwise would be unprincipled and do more harm to his rep than this. Take a stance, then hold your ground!

And it could be that Harsin is mum on the vaccine to support those on the team that are not vaxed for whatever their reason may be. Honestly, I want someone who is going to stick up for our guys.

Goodman is a Finebaum wannabe...except PF can actually write a good story. Goodman was getting is rear handed to him for the POS article last week. Finebaum would have stood by the story and made you like it...he wouldn't have resorted to a puff piece to get his butt out of the proverbial sling.

Not sure you could really call him a fraud...he thought he was good. "Remember Jerry, its not a lie if you believe it". --George Costanza

I'm going with B...

Anything but a bubble screen! Please...not that!

How did that happen with no facemask to block your vision?

That’s a legit question…if I’m not mistaken, each person who gets the virus has a unique reaction, for them. What I mean is not everyone has the same level of antibodies in reaction to the virus. If you are using the plasma of infected survivors, you want a high level of antibodies in the plasma since you are treating severely ill victims to supercharge their immune system…I mean really crank it up since they’re in real jeopardy of dying. This is probably why they were screening donors.

You defeated your own argument…why do you think the drugs work on the mutated AIDS virus? Maybe because it is less virulent than the original? The mission of any virus is to spread…to propagate the species if you will. If it mutates to a more virulent version it’s self-defeating.

I’m pretty sure that if you have the antibodies they don’t go away. The antibodies are markers for this specific virus. They simply tell the right “attack cells” where to go and what to attack. There were several reasons why the initial virus was so virulent, especially with the elderly (weakened immune systems due to age). For others it was because our antibodies didn’t recognize it…so one’s body was late reacting or it over reacted by throwing everything at the virus including the kitchen sink (causing severe swelling, especially in the respiratory system). The younger you are the stronger your immune system…this is why the virus has less of an effect on this demographic. Bottom line: if you are in the high risk group, get the vaccine. If you’ve had the virus, you’re probably in the clear. If you haven’t had either, protect yourself.

Nope...when it comes to something like this you have one shot to get it right from a trust standpoint. In the early spring we had momentum on getting the vaccine...widespread momentum. Then the J&J vaccine was poo pooed on and that momentum stopped in its tracks. No amount of education or communications messaging can put that genie back in the bottle. If you want to criticize the Guv then call her out on the roll-out of the vaccine in Alabama...which was horrible. I live here and traveled to Mississippi to get the vaccine...twice for both shots. They had their act together (easy to navigate website, logistics by the National Guard)! Gives new meaning to the old phrase "Thank God for Mississippi!"

The numbers are hard to believe since they've monkeyed around with them for political purposes. For instance, were some GSW victims counted towards the Covid numbers? Here is the problem...did the victim die of Covid or die with Covid? That is the question...

I wonder if there are some on this board that will change their mind about pushing the vaccine if a player has to miss games because the vaccine caused another health issue. It can and has happened. This is a personal choice to make and it should stay that way. And, if a player has already had the virus in no way should they be forced or coerced into taking the vaccine just to push the team's percentages up...recovered virus victims should be counted towards the total.

Wade Christopher...😎

Coach, I would add to the scout team practicing holding on our guys with this...I hope our receivers practiced all week with someone hanging all over them. I guess I do not know what pass interference is any more. You would have thought we were playing a game in Central Park in NY with all the mugging going on. This has to be corrected with regards to the refs. The NFL solved it by not allowing the DBs to touch the receivers after 5 yards...do we need a rule change to help the refs? SMH...

Dude is fearless back there...

Are we officially paying property taxes in Texas yet...I mean we own a part of College Station.

I fixed it for you Bird...

From what I saw, Tulane sold out to stop the run by putting 8-9 guys in the box. Now I'm no mathematician but its kind of hard to block them all if they out number your guys. Having said that, one way to counter this is to use screens and play action passing. Gus finally figured it out in the second quarter. IMHO, he continues to force the issue when the defense is showing you otherwise...that's just being stubborn.

So...does Wade Christopher have any eligibility left? Bird, you should be in the know about this!
