  1. As much as I want LJH to return, we have more talent at slot than any other position on the team. Moore, Whittington and Smith will be good. Set either way.
  2. I can't help but look forward, and I'm fully capable of enjoying the Sugar Bowl win while simultaneously getting excited about next season. It seems to me we have several things going in our favor to reach the playoffs next year. 1. Every Big 12 school that handed Texas a loss (OU, OSU, WVU) will be breaking in a new starting QB next season. Almost half the conference (KU, KSU, TTU, WVU) will be in the 1st year with a new head coach. The conference was relatively down this season, but could be even more so next year. Oklahoma will always be dangerous, but Texas was already in their class before OU loses Murray and Brown. 2. If Humphrey and Johnson return, the offense should enter the season with more confidence than any group since the 2008 team. Three years with one system is huge. Three years with the exact same starting QB and WRs in the same system is even bigger. The only thing we haven't seen from this offense was big plays, and I think Whittington and Jake Smith could help remedy that. 3. The amount of seniors Texas will lose on defense is pretty ridiculous (Omenihu, Nelson, Hager, Wheeler, Johnson, Locke, Boyd, Davis), but the most encouraging thing about the Sugar Bowl was the play of Koburn, Ossai and Foster to go along with Sterns performance earlier in the season. If we do make the playoffs in 2019, it's going to be because the defensive recruiting class of 2018 saved our asses. And as good as those seniors were, none of them were the kind of violent pass rushers that I think Ossai, De'Gabriel Floyd and Caleb Johnson can be. Orlando hasn't had the kind of destructive force at Texas that he had at Houston. It really comes down to three huge factors. Can Texas recruit LJH and Collin to stay? Can Green, Cook, and Jamison become quality corners by September? And can three of Angilau, Okafor, Hudson, Tyler Johnson, Ghrimai, Reese Moore or Imade become productive starters?
  3. I like McCay and pretty much everyone involved in this. I think Cheney is a terrible person. I agree with much of this film. Having said all that, I don't think it was very good. The McCay-like things (Shakespearean soliloquy, breaking 4th wall narrator, fake news caster Naomi Watts) just didn't really work this time. Both First Man and Vice fall victim to the fact that they are movies about people who aren't very interesting to watch for more than a few minutes.
  4. Seeing Bama actually go after Kyler makes me regret our strategy of telling our pass rushers to just stand there and look at him.
  5. It's weird but these losses aren't stinging much. I'm still in awe of Luka's play and just enjoy every game. I'm ready to get to the point where I expect to win and feel spoiled. Enough of this happy to be here shit.
  6. I'm just going to piece together a Bru McCoy conspiracy theory real quick. 1. DeGabriel Floyd's tweets suggested he had confidence Texas was landing someone else and he's been recruiting Bru hard. 2. There are reports that Bru favors Texas, but USC is more comfortable because of the location and people he knows. 3. Tom Herman said that he expected to land 1 or 2 more LOI's THIS signing period. 4. Bru apparently is sending his LOI this signing period. Conclusion: Bru is already in
  7. Feel like they probably robbed that one in Hell or High Water.
  8. 2009 Colt: 27 TD, 12 INT, 3 rush TD 2018 Ehlinger: 25 TD, 5 INT, 13 rush TD
  9. The last time we wont the Big 12 our RBs by carry 1. Tre Newton 2. Cody Johnson 3. Vondrell McGee
  10. I'm not at the point where I'm freaking out about a 4th string RB. If I had to rank the position group by year the past 7 or 8 years, a group of Ingram, Young and Brown is probably in the top half.
  11. Weird. I typically thought it was the regulars of the thread who were more understanding and the non-regulars who freak out about why we aren't landing Ed Oliver.
  12. I don't really understand the panic. The only position of need where we actually might need some of these recruits to start next year is linebacker. De'Gabriel Floyd is perhaps the best player in this class, and Caleb Johnson is perhaps the most ready to play. Everywhere else is about depth. And I think we are solid at depth at QB, RB, WR, TE, OT, DL, LB and DB. The only real place we need more depth is interior line, and we have two more months to find some bodies. It's easy to say we're only getting elite WR and DB, but it's not the case.
  13. Wasn't there a report a few pages back that Sanders already told the staff he isn't coming here? Why are we still talking about him?
  14. Author is a UT alum and Fort Worth native.
  15. Some of yall sound like Burton complaining about the DL recruiting at this point last year.
  16. I don't know how real clutch stats are, but part of the reason I wanted Luka this time a year ago was that it seemed like every week he had a new highlight where he made a ridiculous crunch time play for Real Madrid. And he looked like he expected to make every shot. The fact that he's already getting those results against better competition... it's pretty shocking even for a Luka homer.
  17. Why did you title this like you work for an online newspaper and need clicks?
  18. Wes' shooting numbers are getting back to where they were in Portland. I'm pretty pleased with every player in the rotation right now.
  19. At this point in the season, everyone in the starting lineup is solid and fits a role really well. And the bench might be the best in the league. Currently 7th in the west, and nobody really looks great in the conference.

    Real creative play calling there LSU... It's nice to finally, after years, be able to watch other teams play football and look down on their offenses.
