  1. They appear fine so far.
  2. Pack it up, boys. Bolero88 has spoken.
  3. Honestly, the thing I'm most hopeful for Jake Smith is that he has a similar physical development to Duvernay. Duvernay's always been thickly-built, but if Smith can bulk up to where he can dish out punishment like Duvernay (without sacrificing speed), he's going to be a terror, because his body control is so much better than Duvernay's is/was at the same point in time.
  4. Not a word.
  5. Turns out that our cornerbacks are really good at being in the right place but are really bad at making a play on the ball. So Epps' lack of physicality or ability to use his body to screen DBs didn't show up as an issue in practice. Turns out we were learning more about our CBs than we were about Epps.
  6. EVEN MORE wrinkles, then, when he gets here in 2021--because he'll have fully mastered the Air Raid by then.
  7. I'm excited for some of the Air Raid wrinkles Shane brings back to Austin when he GAs for Herman next year.
  8. If there's one position in the offense that has shown itself to be the easiest spot to generate solid production out of, it's the slot receiver position. From RHM to LJH to Duvernay and Smith, the H is the easiest place for this scheme to find explosive plays.
  9. I agree that Z is probably the easiest spot to "fill," but it might be the hardest spot to get solid production out of. Hell, Eagles already has 4 TDs and almost 300 receiving yards there, already this year, where Duvernay had 4 TDs and 500 receiving yards in ALL of 2018. Eagles has been a revelation at Z. We should leave him there.
  10. To me, this is the only actually interesting response to this abortion of a discussion. I have a visceral objection to moving Eagles away from Z. He's been a revelation there and is getting better every week. Why would you move him? Especially since his skill set doesn't appear to lend itself well to X. I hope they redshirt Lewis and Washington and let those two duke it out for X next year. Loved Lewis's run after catch against Rice.
  11. This was annoying earlier. But now it's in neg territory. You're ranking Smith behind Whittington, who appeared in a total of about 10 snaps? Based on fucking what? While Smith has scored several touchdowns where he fucking ran past people.
  12. A white slot receiver named Shipley? I'll believe it when I see it.
  13. Damn that's good shit, though.
  14. This might be an unpopular opinion, but if Morris gets canned, I would be strongly in favor of Herman hiring him as an offensive coach/offensive analyst. I seem to remember some rumblings during Herman's UH days that they didn't care for each other, though, so maybe that would be a no-go.
  15. The right side was great. But the left side was worse than that time Marcus Hutchins was our starting LT.
  16. You fool. We are all actual Texas football staff members.
  17. It's actually pretty different. While TexAgs/$9.95ers never talked about the Volleyball incident, they are almost all responding to questions about the fight. We know the volleyball incident didn't occur, which helps make sense as to why they wouldn't address it. But if the fight actually occurred and it was "suggested" they deny it occurred or minimize it's occurrence. That's a much different pattern than the pool party incident. And it suggests the fight actually occurred--especially because such facts almost always come out. See, e.g., Quandre Diggs complaining about the BYU-related posters put up by Strong; Darius White and Demarco Cobbs getting into a fight after White badmouthed Texas to DGB; etc.
  18. Quid pro quo?
  19. Take that shit to the dental boards.
  20. They're claiming that rumors of TAMU players getting into a fight after the game are coming from Herman and that, therefore, Herman and his staff are liars... But also, Herman and his staff are lazy (but apparently not too lazy to use moments immediately following a big victory over oSu to fabricate tales about TAMU's locker room and post them on numerous message boards). But apparently these calculating, conniving Texas coaches are not smart enough to post them on TAMU message boards, but only to post them on Texas message boards. And recruits and their families are "realizing" this...
  21. And it's an incomplete sentence, at that.
  22. Mine was a masturbation joke, so...
  23. I saw a floor slap in that 6 second long video. wtf
