Maybe an opportunity to get some immediate defensive help.
Ahem. Help from a Vandy defense that gave up 41 points to our offense? I’ll pass (pun intended).
Hey, if you look at the 10 best plays in each game they played this season, Vandy had a very good defense. :-)
That was worth a guffaw. Nicely played!
I agree. Nice Wednesday morning laugh, martyup!

I recall there was quite some buzz around Heimuli when he joined the roster: he was projected to be that power running back we needed to establish our up-the-gut, high TOP game plan. A short blip, and he's gone.
Austin Jones also came to Stanford with high expectations. Either he is good and cannot find any holes behind our current O-line, or he is a 4-star underachiever. Curiously, he had more rushing yards in the Covid-shortened 2020 season (550) than this season (370).
I think he is a good running back, But CMac and Bryce Love are tough acts to follow. Also, as has been pointed out many times the holes this year were a rare commodity.
