  1. He was a mole for 9.95ers like crazy. It was part of the reason Herman didn't keep him. The myth of Traylor is heavily dependent on 9.95 loyalty.
  2. irrespective of what kind of a team Bama has, you can conclude on the basic fact that it didn't resemble any of the games last year with the defense in the backfield at the snap of the ball or our defense not knowing how to do basically anything as a sign of improvement. So I think we beat an appex Bama? No....but even so our boys were vastly superior to anything that took the field last year.
  3. The problem against army wasn't that they got lost in traffic....most of the big plays were straight go routes, flags, or posts. The problem for UTSA is their secondary is slow. They are big...but they are slow. Isaiah Alston is Army's go to deep threat and he is big and slow(entered transfer portal last January and had no takers)....and still burns UTSA repeatedly on straight routes. Army's running backs abused UTSA linebackers on basic wheel routes coming out of the back field. Also, UTSA didn't load up the box all game long against army, they ran a lot of 4-3 and even nickel. If they give Texas the 12 yard cushion they gave army it will get ugly......and Texas actually has speed. Army's light oline routinely moved the UTSA defensive line backwards, not talking misdirection, just flat out 1st and goal from the 3 and the dline for UTSA ended up 3 yards deep in the endzone. UTSA has a safety who is a good tackler, the rest like to dive and arm tackle. Could we blow it against UTSA....sure....I mean we lost to Rice......but....I just can't see it. Our Oline should maul them. Whomever we line up at running back should have room to run. Army consistently got pressure with a 3 man rush.....I mean I just don't see the trap game. Sure we feel good about ourselves, but we didn't win and we won't have our starting QB....there's lot of reasons the players won't coast this week. As for who is playing QB....Texas doesn't need their QB to win this game, they need them manage the offense. I know I know...last year, kansas, 7 game losing streak, whatever whatever whatever......Last year we had the equivalent of wet toilet paper for an oline and our defense was trash, whether they are as good as they looked or not against Bama, the oline is light years ahead of last year both in regards to talent and execution. It's amazing what giving a coach a real offseason to coach an oline can accomplish. Same with the defense. We may very well not look quite as great against UTSA, but we will still look far better than last year. We should be 4-1 going into Dallas. We shall see if that happens.
  4. Army just had a QB throw for 300 yards for the 1st time in 15 years against UTSA......Card or Wright will do fine.
  5. Seriously? Tech who needed overtime to score 33 on defensive juggernaut Cougar high? I am sorry but the pirate isn't in Lubbock anymore. Their defense won't be harder to defend than Bama's was. They don't have the linemen nor the the athletes.... As for Card, he was the better QB at the end of last season but got injured. The biggest difference for him going forward is we have a functional offensive line to not have him getting drilled every snap.
  6. I'm sorry, the cult of Traylor is what it is, but UTSA isn't a well coached team. Traylor recruits well and he out athletes marginal teams but they aren't some well disciplined giant killer. We could hand it off 60 times to our backs and we will run them off the field.
  7. For you twits worrying about Traylor and UTSA.....they just gave up 38 to Army....a team that lost to coastal carolina.....Card will look like Ewers against that D.
  8. Most glass for stuff like this is made out of sugar. Elementary school me was shocked to find out the window that Shawn Michaels threw Marty Jannetty through was made of sugar and not glass.
  9. Dude.... I'm not doubting SC offered, nor am I doubting she is that talented. My point is as talented as she is and as highly ranked as she is....the offer is meaningless. A) If she is as good a recruit as they are projecting her to be, she'll be able to pick her school to play volleyball on. B) It's an under the table offer. SC can forget it every happened if Braylan isn't a contributor for them or if she ends up not being worth taking. Won't be the first time it has happened...heck from what my Volleyball friends say about Crouch, he's probably done it before. C) From what I am told the only difference between men's basketball recruiting and women's volleyball recruiting is how involved the shoe companies are. Texas didn't not offer a kid like her with a brother like Braylan because of some rule that no one can ever point to actually being enforced. If they are telling you SC offered it and Texas didn't........I think they are feeding you an excuse. But I admittedly don't know them, but it doesn't make any sense otherwise. Thanks for the info. I used to live in the wood. Nice place. I am assuming they live in Friendswood lakes or around Centenial park at that price....maybe by the high school.
  10. Genius. You think USC is the only one who did this if she is that good? Schools have doen this forever. Darrell Royal promised Tommy Nobis his Brother's would have scholarships to UT....guess what Bud Wilkenson promised the same thing at OU. Same thing with Earl Campbell and countless other recruits. If she is as good as is being stated every college with a volleyball team is doing it, but it doesn't matter if she is that type of player she can probably pick where she goes. If she is a marginal or borderline level recruit.....that's where the offer has actual value. It's harder to get a volleyball program to play ball on a player they don't think will contribute....
  11. If thats the case its an even bigger crock...considering she'll have her pick of schools whether he goes to USC or not. As for the SuperK update.....it's more a UGA is trying to weasel into the conversation not so much they are an actual threat.
  12. Actually no...you started playing Satya's greatest hits because you thought the pool party was unorganized and we weren't getting recruits. Then when others called you out on that, you pivoted to the edge recruiting complaint.
  13. Well....that would be a world of improvement over the last 13 years? So how about we work on that before we go all @Bevo or @Satya because we missed on one recruit....
  14. Ya'll both lack reading comprehension than. CTJ has said for over a month that if A&M went all in on Hill with a ridiculous offer it would be hard to counter. NIL and such counters the typical bag game, but flopping one giant bag on a recruit is a different matter.
  15. Guillette has a family member who wants him to go through the process and not jump before he has done his diligence. Not the worst advice to be giving a kid in his position.
  16. No problem. It all defected from the communist block in the mid 70s
  17. That's actually their oceanography and meteorology building....
  18. Several possibilities: 1) Most likely(in my opinion) kid is trying to drum up more drama/higher NIL. Putting Texas out there as a threat either legitimately or not might help with NIL. Having a respected recruit expert cb you out of nowhere to Texas when everyone else thought it was a 2 horse race and then publicly deny the report can definitely get people talking about you. In this scenario it could be legit and it could not. 2) It's legit. He may have "secretly visited". He may have told Gerry but he wants to keep people guessing. He's a recruit who the heck knows what he's thinking. 3) He's a sooner and wants to make us look bad by feeding a report that he is commit to us only to go for the sooner and shock the world.... 4) Gerry screwed up. I find this the least probable.
  19. all I'm gonna say is CB1919 needs to prepare himself for the banhammer for hard hitting commentary like that....It's clear he's just trying to cause problems and get people mad.
