  1. Alabama should definitely be on the list of best OL. I don't know if they're better than Notre Dame, but they are probably the best OL in the SEC. Clemson, PSU, and Utah should probably be on the list as well. And roll your eyes if you want, but A&M's OL should be solid. I don't think I would trade their starters for ours, but they should be a decently talented and cohesive unit.
  2. At this risk of starting a fracas in here too, is it really crazy that Flood would still be tinkering with the OL? Like maybe they have the 8 guys they trust, and they're just trying to figure out if the pieces can fit together differently? I work with a lot of smart people who will still waste time and energy running a dumb idea into the ground just because they want to be absolutely certain that it's not a good idea. Maybe moving Neto to LT is just Flood's version of "sounds ridiculous but let's just see..." I'm going even farther further even more out on a limb, but maybe they're doing it because Neto has asked to play LT? It's the premier OL position and he's in his contract year. I get that this would be wasting valuable reps, but maybe it's worth it. I'm not saying there aren't greater injury concerns at play. But are these other ideas really that outlandish?
  3. Gifs from Yarn.co get borked up on mobile. They show up fine on desktop.
  4. First, thank you. I appreciate the article. I assumed that was the case but it's nice to have it confirmed. Second, Helobious is just doing his schtick. It's not a big deal. But I wanted to nip it in the bud before it turns into three pages of people arguing with him. No matter how bad the bait is, someone always bites. Watching people argue with him is a fun way to kill time during the off season, but there's actual football and recruiting news going on. Third, man I really wish that Chang had worked out better as the coach at UH. I know "he's not dead yet" but his tenure has gone poorly. I remember watching those Hawaii offenses back in the day and part of me hoped he would get things going again.
  5. Rather than spending any time looking into this I'm just going to assume you're wrong and get on with my day.
  6. Timmy Chang and your bait is getting obvious.
  7. Are we really arguing about Manning running the ball more? It seems like y'all are talking past each other and being particularly obstinate about missing the point the other is trying to make. Arch will use his legs more than Quinn. Both by design and capitalizing on opportunities that the defense presents. He's faster than Ewers and more durable. But Sark doesn't like running his QBs and is obviously cognizant of how badly it would suck for Arch to get injured. "Reasonably conservative" is probably the right phrase. How Arch runs is almost as important as when he runs, which was already noted above. Dude needs to get on the ground and avoid big hits once he's gained some yards. No more diving head first into defenders. I feel like both of y'all are saying some version of this but refusing to agree with one another.
  8. If everything we are hearing is accurate then I have to agree. But remember that Sark likes to use the media to motivate guys. I don’t doubt that Owens is more talented than Caldwell, but he may lack maturity or ambition. Being QB2 at Texas, behind arch Manning, is a pretty sweet gig. I could see someone getting complacent. My hope is that Caldwell is just there to be the emergency QB and to light a fire under Owens.
  9. Right, because we haven’t needed our backup QB at all these past 4 seasons.
  10. Wait, they're actually room mates? It's not just a joke? CTJ, you might as well pay me that $100 today.
  11. Bill Connelly just dropped his full ranking of all 767 college football teams (DI, DII, DIII, NAIA) Texas is 5th, behind OSU, Bama, Georgia, and PSU.
  12. Eric fucking Nahlin. Literally tweeting at croots. What an asshole.
  13. Tom Fornelli actually name dropped Thujone on the Cover 3 podcast last season.
