  1. Yeah. To hit a Moore in stride, Quinn would have had to throw it about 8-10 yards farther in the air. I just went back and rewatched it again. Moore starts jogging and adjusting about 12 yards before he even makes contact with the ball. Again, he should have caught it. But Quinn under threw him and made an easy, wide open catch much more difficult.
  2. That’s not at all what was said. I didn’t say Moore shouldn’t make that catch. I originally responded to a couple posters saying Moore let Quinn down. Yes, Moore should have made the catch. But it was made much more difficult by being significantly underthrown. Lord, y’all fucking suck with nuance. It could have been much better by both players.
  3. I’ll give him this. Quinn executes all the eye candy of Sark’s offense very well. If he gets his footwork sorted out, he can be very, very good. Otherwise, the lack of athleticism coupled with his propensity to panic in the pocket sometimes is his downside.
  4. It hit his hands/chest because Moore adjusted to a madly under thrown ball. WTF are y’all talking about here?
  5. It was. But Moore has to slow wayyy down. Made it a much harder play than it should have been.
  6. It was a terrible throw. Should have been caught, but let’s not act like Quinn got screwed on a perfect ball.
  7. And that’s exactly how you beat the ever so popular double mug defensive look. Freeze the LBs at the line of scrimmage and throw to the vacated space. I fucking love it!
  8. He did throw an easy should-be pick that the LB dropped. But, he did look good the rest. Even stepping into the pocket and running for nine on third and 10 to set up that ballsy fourth-down conversion.
  9. He was 10 I believe. Cancer.
  10. Lost my dog unexpectedly in April to a ruptured abdominal tumor. She was a golden like Ben. That segment brought back a whirlwind of emotion. “Dogs’ only flaw as a species is that they don’t live long enough.” Damn, Kirk, ain’t that the truth.
  11. Yep. No way the Texas staff actually prepared much for Lagway. This type of injury can only get worse with much more than active recovery. But, you know even more than me in this case.
  12. FIFY Fuck that. For a young player who doesn't hustle like he needs to, isn't a commanding blocker, and drops balls, there is something wrong with wanting assurances regarding PT. Now, a good team will give him that to get him in the door, but they'll most certainly be on his ass about those things above.
  13. More context from FCB: What you need to know about the "mutual" parting of ways between Texas and WR Johntay Cook Yeah, this wasn't mutual. It reads like Sark is trying to protect his culture and doesn't want someone who has already checked out around to bring others down. "All gas, no brakes." Seems like Sark viewed Cook as a "brake" based on his comments and FCB's additional color. I don't have clips handy, but I noticed a few occasions earlier in the season where Cook wouldn't run to block downfield or from the other side of the field to follow up the play. That's something Moore and Bolden both do.

  15. SMU would be a good landing spot for many reasons in my mind.
  16. This was a really good post. I wish I could pos rep it more. I'll get you elsewhere. Increased, as well as more skilled, pitching depth, a shorter leash so pitchers don't crater and start sliding in confidence (depth will help here too), and a different approach from a younger and more attuned pitching coach leads me to believe Texas will have fewer pitchers that look like this on the mound this season: At least that's my hope.
  17. Not a chance Quinn is the starting QB at Texas next season.
  18. Yep. This just screams CYA with a paper trail. Fake injuries won’t stop. Staffs will just get better at planning for them and covering their tracks with plausible deniability.
  19. Rupturing a spleen or damage to the splenic artery is 100% life threatening. It’s the most vascular organ in the body. You can bleed enough internally pretty quickly to die without intervention. I’m assuming one of those things happened here. Chris Simms had to have his spleen removed after rupturing it in a game in 2006. Needed a blood transfusion because of the blood loss.
  20. They’re firmly still in the hunt for a SEC title and the CFP, and control their own destiny to boot, yet they’re melting down. Never change, aggy. BAS lives, real hard.
  21. Yep. The narrative on Surly seems to be that he’s simply not playing and should be. However, OTF said he has had an ankle injury. Nevertheless, I don’t think he has been listed on the injury report. Maybe it was just one of those “he can go if needed” things, but the staff was being careful. Either way, we need his change of pace ability down the stretch. Especially in the fourth quarter of games.
  22. Lol WTF? Possibly? I don't care about NFL projections and potential, but yes, we would 100% rather have the current version of Gabriel over current Quinn. He's mobile, evades getting sacked well, is a genuine threat with his legs, and actually consistently throws an accurate and catchable deep ball.
