  1. TCU's front has been handled by most of the teams they faced this year. Our guys couldn't get much push for much of the game. Much room to grow
  2. For as improved as Broughton is at getting pressure, he can't anchor against the run much at all.
  3. The play that saved our season when the team was hobbling to the finish line.
  4. Dressed like an assassin looking for revenge
  5. Coleman was such a big time portal get for those guys.
  6. That's PI? That's just normal defense in the Big 12
  7. UNLV has been a very fun follow this year for this reason. Wonder how long Marion stays at this stop.
  8. It's thursday. All game-prep is pretty much done at this point. Also, it helps get our guys focused and ready to go on the road with their QB1
  9. Addazio went from being a HC to taking a job as an OL coach on a year to year basis? Woof.
  10. Maybe, but with a minus wingspan and below average mobility, that would be much less than desirable at Texas.
  11. Seeing Conner come in at LT for Banks during the K-State game should probably dispel any notions about Conner getting displaced barring a major leap in pass protection and general blocking awareness from Neto/Hutson. Conner may not be the most effective blocker, but he GENERALLY knows what is going on and who he should be blocking.
  12. Hopefully Quinn is healthy enough to take a hit without it being an issue. The more I look into this game, the more I think we can win it with MM at qb, barring a complete meltdown by him on the road. I'm sure plenty of the guys, including Quinn, want revenge for how this game went down last year. On top of that, this is another chance for plenty of the major players on the team to show out in the same area where they went to high school.
  13. Aranda would be a solid consolation prize, if he’s even fired/looking to be a DC right away
  14. That defense no longer has guys like Thorpe award winner, T. Hodges Tomlinson, Dee Winters, and Dylan Horton. The latter of which completely dominated Cole Hutson and wrecked our offense's ability to get much of anything going. We also had a few uncharacteristic drops along the way. Their OL is also missing guys like Steve Avila and Alan Ali. Obviously, they are without Duggan, Johnston, Miller, Demercado, and Barber. Another thing I don't hear much about is that they are another year removed from the influence of Gary Patterson. This isn't the same team we saw in Austin last year.
  15. Joseph is the passing game coordinator, so just moving Gideon probably doesn't get the job done. I have a hard time seeing Joseph get removed during this offseason. It makes no sense to recruit press/bump and run corners and play them off. Brooks literally made his name dominating Evan Stewart in some 1v1 reps at a camp while playing press. Now we have him playing in space against lesser athletes, make it make sense.
  16. His reduced mobility frees up our linebackers to play coverage and makes it less risky to blitz They have a few receivers who will give us fits if he has the chance to find them.
  17. Back to more relevant shit, Josh Hoover will start for TCU this weekend unless Sonny fuckery is afoot. Morris is a worse passer, but The QB run is something that would concern me if he played. The pass rush is a bigger factor with the reduced mobility of Hoover too.
  18. Healthy isn't the word I would use, but he's finally good enough to be able to play his style of ball and we're about to face a bunch of less than stellar tackles for him to feast upon.
  19. I'm convinced he was hurt against Kansas and OU. He's looked more decisive and showed better closing speed the last few games. We'll see another veer and shoot offense this weekend, it will be interesting to see if he's learned from the issues he had against OU.
  20. This is the stretch run, everything out there to play for. I could see him rushing his timeline to get out there and help in whatever way he can. If Quinn plays, but he can’t play through the discomfort, then bring MM in and run the ball until they give you the deep shot.
  21. Slovis got banged up in his game against us, their backup is even less of a threat
  22. Even mid 30s Ben was much more athletic than MM is now *He should still be jogging for positive yards instead of throwing prayers into triple coverage*
  23. This is just Jimbo’s fetish. Having someone publicly committed to him messing around with others
  24. A poster referenced it earlier, but MM looked spry on a run during the spring game. I went and rewatched that run and he could move a little bit I think it’s just a lack of awareness on his part to not take those easy yards when presented the opportunity. It could also be that he’s terrified of contact. Jogging/running is definitely easier on the back and ankles than throwing a football.
  25. I bet he wishes he had 333 yards passing and 5 TDs though. Such a shame.
