And 04/05/08/09 were the good years out of 03-09. 7 years and 3 weren’t title contention years. Point is QBs need time to develop. QE would be an all American and heisman finalist next year IMO. -

Bc he’s the 3rd year starter that was supposed to be in NYC this year winning the heisman? That was a legit expectation this year. Dudes making mils to be the starting QB at Texas and he’s not impressing. Defend him after a loss at Aggy and say you didn’t see it coming… -

Is QE going to win the Heisman this year or next? If he comes back, he probably goes first in the draft next year and will most definitely go on to have a better career than Tom Brady. So glad he is our QB 1. -

I probably wouldn't bet on that, but the few guys who will lead the Heisman discussion haven't emerged as a group yet, and the kid is getting a ton of love, so it's possible there's an opening there for him to go through omg a beto ad just covered up my typing -

If Ewers wins the Heisman and leads UT to a national championship, there’s an argument. Until then, it’s Colt > Ewers, as far as achievement/impact at UT. I think Ewers is already ahead of Colt from a talent and ceiling as a pro perspective. But those are two pretty different things. -

That's what I think people get so frustrated about. At times, Quinn really looks the part of a Heisman QB. Other times he doesn't. He just has limitations. He still has done a lot for this program,, which deserves respect. -

Don’t be fucking obtuse. Quinn was near the top of the list on any Heisman watch list one could find…Vegas not withstanding. Based on the progress he made over the last few years, that was a completely reasonable line of thinking. Get the fuck out of here with this bullshit. -

I randomly picked another USC Heisman winning QB- Matt Leinhart. He doesn’t have any stats from his freshman year because he didn’t play. Hmmmm. It’s almost like True Frosh stud QB’s aren’t really a thing. -

Doesn't Colt McCoy still hold the school record for interceptions, when he was a sophomore? Then he was a two-time Heisman finalist. What you're saying about the comparison between Quinn and Penix tonight isn't wrong. But it is comparing a finished product with a halfway-finished product. -

SpiralOut replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
He got the monkey off his back tonight. I think he deserved the criticism, but he stepped his game up and had an All-World performance in the toughest of situations. If he keeps this up and our receivers start catching everything, he's in the running for the Heisman. -

people keep referencing this, but it’s a disingenuous comparison. colt’s sophomore year was an outlier (he was coming off a neck injury and he lost his nfl o-line from his freshman year, plus his team was arguably worse than the year prior, as opposed to his team being far better as is the case with QE) and more importantly, Colt was placed *second* in the rocky mountain news headman poll when he got hurt as a freshman. colt was arguably (definitely?) more polished as a redshirt frosh than QE is right now, he just never had QE’s hype or physical skills. footwork, timing, accuracy, pocket presence, mastery of the offense, and so on and so forth, they all go in Colt’s favor. so whereas Colt took a step *down* in season two at Texas for various reasons, QE has taken a giant leap forward this year, and yet we keep comparing their two seasons as if it indicates that they’re on the same track, when they’re really not. colt as a freshman: looked to be a heisman finalist before going down as a sophomore: outlier year coming off injury and playing behind an inferior OL as a junior: all american heisman finalist as a senior: all american heisman finalist one QB played at a heisman level as freshman and outside of his sophomore year maintained that level of play. the other QB has never looked like a heisman contender and still has lots of work to go before he is Colt’s equal in pretty much everything that isn’t arm talent. i think we should tap the brakes on this comp. all it’s really showing is that the worst version of colt looked pretty similar on paper to the best version of QE. -

I'm surprised to see how many people are ambivalent about the Heisman, even while acknowledging it's a good thing to win one. Personally, I'd be thrilled to see another one brought to Austin. It's a major achievement for a player and looks awesome in a trophy case. It should be a source of pride for any program. Not to mention the help with recruiting and everything else that's already been said. Obviously not as good as winning a National Championship, but I don't think personal awards and championships are really comparable in terms of what they mean to a program. The Heisman is still the "national championship" of personal awards, however, even if the award has been watered down a bit over the last 20 years. -

Good point, but it did seem a bit of an unknown 12 months ago. At any rate, expecting Quinn to (a) win a Heisman AND (b) win the national title in his 3rd year to just equal Colt's work in 4 years seems a stretch. (And I'm a huge fan of Colt McCoy.) -

We're on our 3rd and 4th RBs. Would we have that high of a standard if we were on our 3rd QB? Or should Mr. Heisman hopeful first round pick video game cover Dr. Pepper boy maybe pick up his play a little bit? -

Jesus this thread has turned into a beating. "Quinn's a pussy, Quinn's brittle, Quinn lost the Heisman, Quinn probably screwed up his abs partying too hard last week, Arch should be QB1...." Here the facts: 1. Quinn is a fucking badass. 2. See #1. -

if he’s a heisman candidate at the beginning of next year it’s because he’s the QB at Texas, because he’s hyped up his whole life, and because his coach and his teammates make his stats look a lot better than his actual performance. does he actually deserve to be a heisman candidate? in a word, no. where does he rank among his own team’s best players? maybe top 10? maybe outside the top 10? point is, any heisman talk is fan and media BS. quinn ewers has not been leading his team to victory week and week out, he’s mostly been an inconsistent piece of a puzzle that has some truly all american/award worth badasses and a QB genius HC and play caller who has tailored an offense to QE’s strengths and weaknesses. i can name a dozen games off the top of my head where VY or Colt led us to victory and were the difference in winning and losing. that’s not what Quinn does for this team. never has been. -

Saw someone (maybe Gerry Hamilton) bring up a good point that our schedule is ideal for a Quinn run at the Heisman. We get OU and UGA in back to back weeks in the middle of the season, then end the regular season at A&M. All high profile games with a chance to "impress" voters. -

So let me get this straight. I should not expect the third year starter of a team that made the playoffs last year, has an experienced OL with multiple draft picks on it, has multiple great receiving threats, and Sarkisian as a playcaller to perform in a way to where he gets Heisman love? That's the take? -

South Austin replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
I recall he had a hell of a game against Colorado in the 1994 season (when our defense handed Rashaan Salaam the Heisman - I was there; sweated my ass off), but don't remember him doing much else that year, and probably because of injury, which opened the door to James Brown. -

Awhile back (maybe preseason) I saw on another website that of Big 12 QBs last year Texas averaged 2.72 seconds to throw. Lowest in the conference. Is that a positive or a negative? This year QE averages 2.47. Card 2.79. And since you are thirsty for knowledge Heisman winner Bryce is at 3.00 this year. -

behind him in the same recruiting class is a guy starting for the Bears, the Patriots, and 2 guys ahead of him on the Heisman watch (Milroe, Dart). none of them were rated as highly as him, but the closest guy in the following year leads a 6-1 Clemson team tossing 20-3 TD ratio. -

Wait wait wait. So your contention is Quinn is mediocre, Arch might already be better so they should have an open competition that Quinn might lose, and also Quinn will definitely be a top 10 QB nationally next year and might contend for the Heisman? How the fuck does that make any sense?!?!?!? -

That would be hard to find as idk what gambling sites existed back then to find preseason odds. But if manning throws for around 4k yards and 30 touchdowns with some rushing touchdowns to show his last name will carry on the hype machine. But I was just answering the question of first year starters winning Heisman. -

Sanders played under insane pressure rate. He took 50+ sacks last season and on that same pace this season and still completing 70%+ in spite of it. For a Ewers as a guy supposedly all-world, Heisman leading , draft QB1, its disappointing to even to have be discussing these basic shortcomings in his 3rd starting season. -

I’d like to go all texags permaban style on any and all assholes that called for Ewers to be benched and or Murphy to get reps. Haha. Jk, but seriously, fuck you guys. I hope this is just the beginning for Ewers and we ride him to a playoff with a heisman trophy. That’s a lot of kool aid but a man can dream.
