  1. I get that we have crappy O linemen. However, I have to believe that with decent coaching even crappy O linemen ought to be able to act in concert to somewhat disrupt the defense. Last year every play looked like we had drawn in up in the dirt in the huddle and "sprung" assignments on the Oline. For that reason alone I think we might be a bit better. Surely in 2 years our vaunted coaching staff might be able to teach some basic skills..... Jesus!.....what was I thinking?Our Line?....skills?....Doom!
  2. Welcome to Texas Elon....but if you want the Texas look, start shopping at the Saddle Shop in Kingsville (King Ranch store) and leave that Rodeo Drive crap to the Californias....
  3. Icant edit, but I ought to neg my own ass for writing McCoy when I very well knew the guys name was Ted Coy...
  4. I agree ....the above ought to be chisled in stone somewhere after reading the above selections hell, how about Bertelson, Woster and McCoy to the groups as well?....
  5. I understand what you are saying, but if you have a guy that can gain yards every time blocking or no, and you never take out of the game, anyone else is irrelevant. However, point taken, we are loaded at RB.
  6. I am sorry, but the best RB we have ever had was Earl Campbell and who ever else was playing RB at the same time.
  7. I heard from a guy today that was at practice....He said Ewers was way ahead of Card....said that there was not a throw Ewers could not make. That was the good news. The bad news was that the only guys on the team that could catch at all were the RB's. He said we might have the best RB room in the country. That was the good news. The bad news was that the OL was terrible. He said they did not cast shadows because they cant even block sunshine. now send me those 9.95 checks please....
  8. Come on man....I was talking hypotheticals....but I will admit you are correct.
  9. If Don Knotts is a DL and Tiny Tim is the opposing OL, and they battle to a stand still does that mean they are both stellar? I didnt think so either....
  10. did you ever get to see Earl when he knew a hit was coming?....He would cock his head back and knock crap out of the tackler with it.
  11. give me a break....I am old and cant spell Cat twice in a row without help
  12. I was thinking he forgot C.Jones...Karik..Angelou... and friends...
  13. was Patrick Vahe an early enrollee?....I thought he was a starter his Freshman year.....Come to think of it the extra training might have helped.... Conner Williams as well....
  14. the astros used to have this right fielder named Hunter Pence. He had the worst looking rag arm sideways throw you ever saw. Every opponent would take extra bases every time he got the ball.....until they began to notice the throws were almost always right on the money accurate. He led the league in put outs. The point is....it shouldnt make a damn how the ball is thrown as long as it gets there.
  15. I get where you are coming from, but even still he is the only Texas QB to date that never lost a game in like 20 or so starts. Would I take him over VY or Colt or Bobby Layne? Maybe not, but none of those guys could have done any better than he did.
  16. y'all may not remember but perhaps the best QB to ever grace the 40 acres (20 straight starts....all wins and absolute nails on every big play....James Street) did not even get to start until his junior year. IDK if he was good or bad before that time, as I never saw him take a snap before then. I am beginning to think we as a group are beginning to take this spring training crap more seriously than aggy.
  17. great God man!...Kool aide overdose.....quick grab an eppi pen or some narcon or whatever may work fast.....before it is too late!
  18. Joel Klatt???.....Joel Klatt??? Damn! I know we have sucked for twelve years but Joel Klatt is the best we can get? It's only an internet forum talk board....it's only an internet forum talk board...Oh, Jesus!
  19. how is it that we....THE University stumbles around looking for a coach like Diogenese with his lamp, and of all people....Baylor hits on 3 astonishingly great coaches in a row.??? Seems like it doesnt matter how bad of a situation , the coach comes in and has those Bible thumping rapists winning.....I dont get it.
  20. you lost me on the Pete Carrol...one of the greatest of all time... Huh?
  21. true enough....but DKR was advising that search group....sadly we no longer have that kind of evaluator...
  22. Jesus!...No X???....hell...with Herman there is no Ewers...there is zero chance to land Manning....and who knows who (whom?) else going forward. Let us never forget that Herman had a commitment from the highest ranked recruit since Vince Young and he ran him off. Will Ewers be all that?...I hope he will....maybe not, but at least there are a damned lot of smart football people that think he will ball out. Could Sark be the next Saban?...the odds are way against that, but Saban did not start out lights out either.
