Week 10, 2024 - Texas Vs. Florida
The biggest difference is that we have annihilated teams that don’t have enough offense to help their defense. Even with Lagway, I don’t see Florida doing enough on offense to keep their defense off the field. Now if the offense continues to gift the other team short fields…that’s a different story.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
If he were a speedster, he would have seen the field more. He’s a really good route runner with good twitch, but not a burner. He also is a less than willing blocker due to his below average physicality overall. Weird to see him leave in the middle of a playoff run, but the writing was on the wall. He has a big personality, so maybe he was turning into a locker room cancer.

Week 10, 2024 - Texas Vs. Florida
Lagway isn’t good right now. Not even sure I’d call him a playmaker yet. On top of that, his mobility is severely limited if he plays this week. If Napier is smart, he punts Lagway this week to give him time to heal and maybe win one of the more doable tough games on the rest of their schedule.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
If anything, Marcel Reed will continue to regress this season as teams get more tape on him in this offense. He’s a very limited passer, more so than Michael Hawkins

Yea, we were clearly not taking any chances in the second half at Michigan due to their offense being inept. Sark took the air out of the ball for the most part.

Ohio State has no problem doing that.

Not sure what Jerrin Thompson-esque angle you’re going for jimmyjazz. Being in the same company as Aidan Chiles and Hudson Card absolutely qualifies as terrible.

Week 10, 2024 - Texas Vs. Florida
Lagway with a really bad leg is not frightening at all. That would really impact both his ability to throw and run. No way he plays this game after having to sit out while having UGa on the ropes

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
I don't think they do that label anymore, but his description is the guy we would love to see. "Good height with a plus frame. Pro-style QB with athleticism and mobility that qualify for a dual-threat label. Elite improvisational QB who can extend plays and remain accurate on the move. Throws with a smooth, easy delivery and varies arm angles as needed. Impressive velocity and spin rate really show on routes over the middle and down the seams. Field-stretching vertical arm strength to consistently hit big plays over the top. Also shows encouraging touch on timing patterns and downfield routes that require it. Good runner by design or scramble. Understands how to protect himself as a runner and minimize shots. Shows encouraging pocket presence and awareness. Senses pressure and knows how to react to it. Also willing to stand and deliver under duress and will take a big shot if it means hanging in there to make the necessary throw. Occasionally will take risks, but that also is part of what makes him so good. Release quickness is good in general but could still quicken a bit at times." Feels like they're describing Arch moreso than Quinn. Where is this QB now?

Yea, if you’re gonna be a pure pocket passer, you better have great pocket presence and everyone else around you better know and do their assignments. If people are gonna play us to take away the deep stuff, it would be much easier to punish if Quinn were more willing/able to punish teams with his legs. Thankfully, Arch, KJ, and Dia can all punish teams pretty well with their legs. Trey can even run some once he gets going.

I was just about to post this, he had high expectations like Joe Bergeron had high expectations

Pettijohn turned after feeling like he was less important than dakorien Moore

He’s not wrong, but maybe people aren’t biting on the eye candy as much as they used to. Teams have always played us deep. Sark is also being nice to Quinn publically to protect his mental state. If Quinn shuts down mentally, the season could tank.

It’s much more nuanced than that these days, but it can definitely help in creating some built in advantages

Texas O-line talk
Have you personally tried them both? Just kidding Georgia has much better talent on the OL than we do, and they usually have a run first offense. Their run production really isn't that great though.

Brian Daboll is on the Texas staff? Sark never coached Jalen Hurts outside of the one national title game loss to Clemson

@Thatguy The plays you chose were certainly ones where other guys were failing more than Quinn. The main argument is that Quinn isn’t a playmaker nor a leader. Is he helping lead the offense or is he just taking it as it goes? When things break down as often as they are clearly doing so, what is he doing to help the situation? What about the plays where he rushes a throw into coverage when he could have extended the play for a positive outcome? Making teams defend our guys for a longer period of time works heavily in our favor.

Sark knows that Quinn failing here as a QB will reflect poorly on his QB development record. We really needed Quinn when we got him and he helped us accelerate the program’s perception. He is also currently one of the aspects holding his team back from ascending even further. Tough situation. Hope he gets his head out of ass and gets drafted day 1 or 2

Quinn's pocket presence was slightly better yesterday, but he still gets jittery when it isn't clean for him. He clearly was thinking about stepping up into the pocket more this game, which he did more often than not. He had a few opportunities to move to the right and extend the play that he failed to do because he was probably just looking to step up in the pocket. He can throw the ball well enough in general, but becomes gets average to below average when asked to do things outside of the structure of the offense.

Not the thread for this convo, but their OL is coming together. Reed isn't as good as LSU made him look, but he's probably better than Weigman. The DL is very very good.

Clear targeting. Brain dead play by #45 there.

Our running backs aren’t doing our guys much help, but the OL should be mauling these guys.

Seeing Hudson Card with a well-thrown ball percentage around 90 invalidates the whole thing. His game is ass incarnate.
