Getting Omeire on campus is interesting. He's been pretty much an ag lock according to most of the analysts. Also I'd love Collins and Garth in the boat asap.

Meekins is his lead recruiter, apparently.

[Longhorn94 2,427]

Card is supposed to be there.

[Machinator 32,097]

Kelvontay Dixon will attend as well.

Is he a take at this point?  Just curious as to if he's a slot or CB and how high he is on the board.

I’m going to assume you’re joking. But for those that don’t know - that’s not the ‘horns’, it’s a Houston thing.

It was asked literally 2 posts above yours, but yes, it is.

[PNWhornsfan 391]

With Zach Evans' focus on offensive line play in that interview, a 2020 class with George, Garth, Parr, and Lindberg would be pretty compelling for him to want to come play behind, right?

Ingram broke 100yds with Baylor selling out against the run. It was fine.

Why? Ingram had a great game, and we showed big commitment to the run AND that a player of his talent would be huge here.

Honestly it would have been a great game for him to see.

[Hiphopopotamos 20,865]

It was a joke - as a fan this game was excruciating to watch. My blood pressure is already high enough without Texas football trying to give me a stroke.

[UDontKnow 10,439]

It's a long time to go in Zach Evans's recruitment. So let's not all commit seppuku just yet, mmmkay?

Who gives a shit. Regardless of him attending or not, this recruitment is very young. We will have many better performances than what we had today.

Maybe a year from now it would be a story if he doesn't make it. But right now, meh.

I was there.  Card definitely struggled.  His numbers would have looked even worse if he hadn't had two interceptions overturned on penalties.  He threw one nice long ball to Garrett Wilson early, but struggled with accuracy and decision making for most of the game.  He is better as a runner than passer at this point - definitely a work in progress.  Also handled punting duties, for what that's worth.  Definitely a nice athlete, but needs more reps as QB.

I was even more surprised by Wilson.  He looked to me like he was bored.  Had one spectacular one-handed catch out of bounds, one easy long catch from Card early, and a kickoff return for TD (through traffic then easing past the kicker) when they were already down 34-7.  He played some cornerback and went off with an injury late in first half, but came back in early in the third and played the rest of the game.  I had really expected him to be more dangerous against a Westlake team that will be unlikely to receive any major college offers.,

I wonder which game he watched on tv. Sure wasn't ours. 

[Machinator 32,097]

Evans was at practice, per Nahlin:

"Practice ran long. Which I fact checked."

"At 12:30 I talked to an NS coach on defense who had just left school and said offense was still watching film."

Maybe we could focus on getting him on campus first before we talk shit. I don’t know that’s just a thought.

Someone needs to get in front of Longhorn94’s computer and put this post on ignore. I do not want blood on our Surly hands. He could die of heart failure when seeing this or hunt you down and murder you for Lake Travis insolence. Either direction gets nasty.

Takes a long time to watch film when your team score 73 points I guess....

I’m confused. I was told he was comparable to Roschon.

what the fuck is this? did we fail reading comprehension in grade school?

[Atticus 3,920]

I know it's the norm on the football board to overreact, but HS kids aren't consistent pros yet. If he shows himself to be consistently mediocre, then there will be cause for concern.

He'll have his ups and downs. Let's wait and see if he strings together shitty performances.

[Hiphopopotamos 20,865]

This is his first year as a full time / starting QB. He has all of the physical tools - he just needs game experience.

I agree. Most kids don't change from when they are juniors in high school. I know I am the exact same person I was then.

[Scholz 11,933]

Card threw some bad picks. It’s fixable. What you can’t coach is his speed. He’s fast as hell.

Not LT players you steamy POS...They are perfect. LT is the energy that powers the golden ray powering Heaven. - Longhorn94

[Caddox 952]

Card is not a kid that will be expected to play early. Give him a couple of years in the program and see where hes at. If he doesn't pan out, line him up in the slot.

Yup, he's a guy with a lot of upside that will have the luxury of being able to sit behind Rising, RoJo for 2-3 years.  Still should take another QB along with him.
