today in opponent attrition: Oregon

Armstead seems to be a lot like Andrus Peat in that both of them had good careers at their respective schools, but probably could have had a dominant season had they stayed one more year. They will both be high draft picks, but it will be a touch more due to potential than to what they accomplished on the field.
Maybe that is a bit harsh for Peat, who won the Morris award (as best offensive lineman in the Pac-12) and was an All-American... but something was missing. On the other hand, Armstead didn't make the all Pac-12 team; his college career fell short of his potential and his hype coming in.

Night & day difference.
Peat will be a first round pick and possibly top 10-15. Armstead is a big question mark and I think there's a risk he's not drafted at all.

Not that there was any rationale to this, but I was secretly hoping that he wanted to pursue a graduate degree at Stanford. I figured a year under a pro-style offense would have prepped him for the NFL. Besides the fact that he is one hell of a QB, he always struck me as a modest, down-to-earth and generally nice guy. It's almost as if he was out of place in Oregon.

We learned in elementary school that LSD trips could repeat. I guess it's true.

I'm in the age cohort that received scare lessons about things your age cohort was doing. If we ever did drugs, we were going to think we could fly and find ourselves falling out of windows, according to our lessons.

I was friendly with the freakers (aka goths) / stoners in high school due to shared musical tastes. Here's a memorable conversation I had with one:
Freaker: Yo Publius, you're like good with science and stuff, right?
Me: Not the best in our class, but I do OK
Freaker: Well, you're the only honors student I know. I got my hands on a recipe to make LSD. Can you make this?
Me (Looking at the recipe): No.
