  1. Going back to my draft discipline in scouting players, I have always said beware of taking the good player who lines up next to the great player.
  2. Ha! I have done that drive many many times. If you managed to come south on 25 through the northeast corner of new mexico that whole damn state is an ice sheet at times like this. And if you went east through oklahoma you would never get past the vortex of OU sucking.
  3. College aged Christopher Walken does Miami.
  4. Five star+? So this is like the Arch Manning of offensive tackles and he likes A&M? Allrighty then.
  5. That's a relief. I was worried all of our guys were going to get hurt facing an unstoppable force on offense and an immovable object on defense.
  6. I have actually really grown to like Arizona State this season. Hopefully they keep it going.
  7. In fairness, their school started with a giant "No Girls Allowed" sign on the door.
  8. This reminds me of the Herman years where they sign these types of guys with high ratings just to give the illusion that they are still recruiting at a high level.
  9. weirdly mackbrowneastsidepisstrough-texasfootball.com is taken
  10. Someone needed to help him with his running start.
  11. Daddy98 was so close to having a coherent thought... and then straight off the deep end.
  12. As leathered up 50+ year olds go, I've seen worse.
  13. They don't call our OLine the T-Rex army for nothing.
  14. If Sark is in "Dont fucking touch me Fox sideline guy!" mode a week out from the game, then I think that is a good sign. We need him calling plays pissed off.
  15. "They made me wear pants today. I normally just shirt cock it, toddler style. Full Winnie the Pooh mode."
  16. The days of the shaggy rep lounge are a bygone era sir. The only cred you get around here is some burnt ends flair with an empty promise of a T-shirt that never arrives.
  17. This is a game where we are just going to have to go beat guys and make plays. I am not sure how I feel about that.
  18. Gibson has fumbled a ridiculous amount of times for as many touches as he has had. He was put on the shelf for three or four weeks during the middle of the season, was put in for one play, and fumbled again. I don't want Gibson anywhere near this game.
  19. This story needs to find it's way to Gerry H. I think he would enjoy it.
  20. Let me give you a little insight into why Quinn seems to eat against stronger opponents such as Michigan, Bama, etc. Most teams that play Texas say.. "Fuck this, we need to keep everything in front of us." So Quinn has played against the three high safety look the majority of his career in Austin. Certainly the B12, but teams did it a bunch against us this year as well. However, when you find teams that say "We are good enough to guard them, we will play them in single or two high looks", then Quinn suddenly goes off. He is hitting worthy for moonshots all day against Bama, he is torching Michigan's secondary, etc. When Quinn wasn't running for his life against Georgia, he started putting together some nice downfield throws. He has been far more accurate the last three games down the field and outside of the numbers. Now he just needs to not float the ball and we could see a true offensive explosion. I predict that he is going to hit some big plays down the field versus tOSU. Knowles is one of the better 3 high defensive coordinators out there, but he doesn't run that concept all the time because they have the athletes to cover in man. Once they go man, I expect Quinn to carve them up. When they roll back into a 3 high look, I expect us to try and run the ball with the wide zone. If Quinn breaks 300 yards against tOSU, I think we win that game.
  21. Once Quinn goes through workouts and throws for teams, he will start shooting back up draft boards. The guy is going in the first round, I just expect it to be in the low first round. That extra year for a starting QB on a rookie salary is a huge deal.
  22. I remember getting frustrated that Vince couldn't get by them on scrambles.
