  1. If you think the new USC coach would just swoop in and take Bijan from Texas, you don't know how good a recruiter Drayton is.
  2. We have the most retarded coaching staff in college football. Zero situational awareness.
  3. I am not sure if Texas can manage to keep a top 10 2-deep roster given how impatient kids are these days. Only teams that are known NFL factories can get away with it. Until Texas starts developing the talent it has on campus and send enough players to the NFL, it will be tough to maintain a high caliber 2-deep team. We desperately need coaches who can develop as well as some of the lesser programs in the Big 12.
  4. 3rd and long and of course you target the guy who rarely sees the field. Mensa suff!
  5. My bet on kstate is looking pretty good now. The 23.5 point spread was crazy!
  6. He liked this comment, so maybe the Kansas game defensive shitshow had to do with the decommitment, not Shepherd.
  7. I am for starting a league with players in the transfer portal and call it PFL.
  8. I don't disagree all those are problem areas (our entire defense is) but some of those problems are exacerbated by poor tackling. Too often the opposing player runs by them and our guy makes a lame effort to put a hand on him. Just mind bottling! Watching the tackling in the Georgia game, I can't understand how a team can fall this far in a few months in basic fundamentals.
  9. The biggest issue on defense for me is tackling. I get that they are mixing in a lot of young guys due to injuries, which leads to confusion on the field, but I don't understand why the tackling is so bad. Even if you are young, you were a highly rated defensive player out of high school and should know the basics of tackling. Orlando needs to simplify the scheme for the younger guys to understand or they are toast on the road against some good offenses we still have on schedule. Not sure how they caught the tackling AIDS though. On offense, they often have the wrong personnel to execute a play. Sometimes, I feel like the call would have worked just fine if we had so and so on the field rather than pushing it with unproven guys. I don't know if this is Tom's way of telling the guys that he treats everyone equally and that anyone on the roster should be able to execute a play he designs or just being stubborn.
  10. Brandon Jones has never lived up to his hype. It seems like our star freshmen play hard until they get the hype going and secure the starting job.
  11. I blame the Sam Cosmi touchdown play. OL gods are punishing us for taking it too far.
  12. I keep expecting Mensa to do Mensa things, and yet he keeps letting me down with his sheer stupidity. Tom, time to show us you are better than the rest of us, and hopefully better than FUPM at game planning.
  13. Why does Sam continue to throw swing passes when the DB is standing 2 feet away from the receiver? A QB with his experience should know better. Alabama ran a number of swing passes against Aggy that turned into big gains because they had great team blocking. Our WRs just stand around and watch the guy with the ball get tackled. Lots of poor fundamentals all around. Watching how much better Bama, LSU or Ohio State execute their plays makes you realize how far behind Texas still is. They will win most of their games because of the talent advantage, will put up decent fights against top tier teams, and occasionally win a game or two, but they still are far away from being consistent top tier team.
  14. Our DBs have a tendency to engage non-ball carrier even when the ball carrier is running towards them.
  15. They stack the box and you call a slow developing run play?
  16. As per 247, Caleb Johnson is in the transfer portal. Here is the free article link: https://247sports.com/college/texas/Article/Texas-Longhorns-Football-Caleb-Johnson-enters-NCAA-Transfer-portal-135738287/
  17. He is taking practice reps as the #3 QB and getting significant reps as a RB in real games. He couldn't ask for a better way to get ready to take over as the next QB at Texas. Why would he transfer?
  18. Oh God, make it stop! You can't engage/argue with regards because they will drag down you to their level and beat you in their own game.
  19. Georgia fans and players were disrespectful and they got their shit pushed in. LSU fans and players are running their mouth to whoever would listen but it seems more like fear than disrespect - the same level of fear we see from our Aggy brethren. It's like they know what's coming and that they would have to go hiding after the game, so they are trying to get their shot in now.
  20. A player doesn't lose by himself in a team sport. Not sure you ever played one. You can have a #1 draft pick from a team that didn't win anything (hello Aggy). Trash talking is for fans. When players do it, it's bad form and reflects poorly on the team culture.
  21. How many times did Sam burn him or his team? It goes both ways but the difference is one is running his mouth before the game and the other will let his play do the talk.
