  1. The ON3 guys said the staff seems to like Roberstson at center so won’t be surprised if they have someone like SGW or Merrill train there this spring and then try to develop Robertson and Hutson in the summer/fall when they come back. Gerry and Bobby both seem to think Neto is going to have a huge opportunity to take the job this spring. And if he does, he’s athletically as gifted as anyone on the roster and is one of the better run blockers on the team. Also good returns so far from Stroh and Chatman. It’s so fun to have an O-line with talent and depth to talk about. What Flood and Sark have done with the turnover in the OL has been better than what I could have hoped for.
  2. It took me a solid month to figure it out bc I refused to watch any guides but I really enjoyed it. I normally play first person shooters and sports games so this was very different for me but one of the best games I’ve played. Fucking hard too but I felt like a champ when I sat on the throne.
  3. Teams are all about hybrid players now so I have no doubt he will get drafted by someone hoping they can turn him into Isiah Simmons. He’s extremely athletic but he lacks toughness in run support and lacks basic linebacker instincts. I think if teams were to use him as a pass rusher and a guy to cover TEs, he can be successful in the league. If he played like Gary Johnson with measurables, he would be a day 2-3 pick but I think he will go 5-7 which isn’t terrible considering I thought he was a massive bust after 2021.
  4. Multiple reports from the $9.95ers have said that his big brother, BJ, has gained a decent amount of weight and really isn't a factor right now for playing time at safety. He's also not a LB which you can grow safeties to. He's already getting recruited over. Pure speculation, if his big bro isn't likely to see the field at all and is a attrition candidate down the road, then that probably means Jaden is not going to end up in the Texas class, especially with that Bama offer.
  5. 1st place in the big 12. Lots of bitching in here. Hook ‘em boys. We’ve got 4 games left and we’ve beaten 3 of the 4 teams already. If we go 2-2, I’ll be happy but going for 3-1.
  6. Cunningham is such a damn liability on offense. They aren’t even guarding him at this point and the dude misses everything.
  7. Tech has had 8 points of banked shots go in. Team is fighting but you cannot meltdown like that on the road in a big time game in crunch time. Nut up on D and we can win this.
  8. Rodney Terry, got damn… I gotta stop drinking and posting.
  9. I think it was Gerry that basically implied that Mitchell probably isn’t staying at Texas given his usage. He didn’t put right say it but implied he would be shocked if Mitchell was on the Texas roster next year. Gerry mentioned that the coach has to show they can get 5 stars to develop and get drafted or the sales pitch gets doesn’t work. Also mentioned something along the lines of Terry Joseph is basically fighting for a job and isn’t going to rely on freshmen hence the limited playing time.
  10. If he wins the big 12 and keeps both 5 star recruits…. that’s probably a better coaching job than than the majority of years here at Texas. I see us playing good team basketball and he’s doing a good job with rotations and utilizing our best players. I want to see how the season plays out. If he finishes top 2 in the big 12 and makes it to the sweet sixteen…. Might be stupid to let him go at that point. If he accomplishes that, Let him have another year and if he fails, then fire him.
  11. Ads everywhere. Did clearing your cache fix it or is it a site thing that fixes itself? Thanks
  12. Hey Mo, one dude just caught 2 TDs in the CFP while you’re struggling to get starter reps on a team that had no LB depth. Texas is one of the few schools trying to create a baseline for every player regardless of you even have an impact on the program. You don’t get big big bucks for being below average in your job in the real world. How about you put in the work and then the NIL stuff will come. As for Sanders, I’m pretty sure the dude is already getting NIL money and probably more than other programs for the TE positions.
  13. Fantastic movie! I really enjoyed it.
  14. When Catalon is healthy, he has proven to be an all-sec type player. It he’s healthy, he is the best player on this defense. I watched that dude make play after play his freshman year and half of his sophomore year thinking we missed out on a great player bc his parents did not trust Tom Herman and his character and boy were they right… Anyways, excited about this pick up. Having veteran players in Sweat, Ford, and Catalon/Thompson up the middle has me feeling better about maintaining our level of play and improving on it next season.
  15. Yeah, not seeing Mitchell ending up at Texas. He’s had two good showings in the CFP. Why would he leave to come to the abortion our offense is currently? I was buying it when he wasn’t getting targets but doesn’t make sense right now.
  16. He’s going to love all the pretty ladies in Austin
  17. Feel like this link just game my phone the aids
  18. Watch the last live video with Gerry, Bobby, and Eric. I’m not going to listen the the hour long video again to find it. You can look for it, he said it and he also referenced it in another video prior. Then Gerry said something along the lines of “if you want more NIL, catch some more balls”.
  19. Nahlin has mentioned this multiple times in the last few videos with Bobby that there are teammates that don’t want him back even if the coaches want him back. He also mentioned there are guys that are frustrated they get benched and get limited opportunities for any mistake and he keeps playing regardless of how my poor routes, drops and effort he displays.
  20. He knows he’s probably not beating out Baxter and is going to be 3rd string again.
  21. Good quarterbacks make their OL look good. I saw Quinn get plenty of time to throw in the osu game and other games and sail every thrower. On the other hand, he was running for his life against TCU. Also, Clemson did not have a very very good OL. I don’t think anyone would call the current USC OL very very good either…. Caleb Williams makes them look good.
  22. I’m not disagreeing with you at all. I do think QBs need time. With that said, - Trevor Lawrence: supplanted Kelly Bryant in his 2nd game as a true freshman and led his team to a national championship during his college career. - Bryce Young: looks like a future NFL star and Heisman winner. Has looked this way since day 1 of his RS freshman year. - Tua: beats out Jalen Hurts and out plays him his freshman year. - Caleb Williams: beats out Spencer Rattler his RS freshman year. Rattler may be a douche but he’s going to get drafted. Quinn in his RS freshman year looked worse than Hudson Card most of the year and I don’t think very highly of Card’s ability… I do think Quinn is talented and can be a good P5 starter and game manager. I do not think Quinn is the 5 star generational talent we thought he was. Those guys show it early on.
  23. Quinn is … okay. He was supposed to be the best prospect and a sure fire thing from all the 9.95ers coming out of high school. He’s clearly got an elite arm and can make every throw. He also has terrible footwork, can’t go through his progressions, and clearly needed to spend more time learning the offense. Those things can change with time and experience but he’s now has 2 full seasons with a college program. He made some very good throws during the game and I don’t think the loss is on him. With that being said, the tier QBs he is supposed to be in all have some dog in them. They win. Guys like Lawrence, Bryce Young, Tua, Caleb Williams, etc all played either their freshman or RS freshman years and looked great in big time games. Those guys put the team on their backs and make plays. At some the light has to click and he needs to dominate and be the guy that elevates the rest of the offense. I just don’t see it to be honest. I don’t know if it’s his personality or just very poor play most of this season prior to the Alamo bowl… I just don’t see a guy that is going to lead this team to a championship. It won’t matter however. Arch is the real fucking deal and has the mindset and leadership qualities you want in a QB. I will be shocked if he isn’t the starting QB before next season ends.
  24. For those that love to speculate, Worthy had a picture of him in a Texas jersey pinned on his Instagram page as of yesterday. He’s deleted it and again removed all Texas content from his social media. He did this previously after the season ended when there was speculation he was transferring.
