I see that Wescunt is trying to torpedo the program again--today's article saying (in effect) that Casey might as well hit the portal; Card's gonna' be the man. Thanks, asshole.

While Wescott annoys me as much as he does any UT fan with half a brain, this seems like a normal article?

Pretty standard opinion piece about how Card winning the QB battle wouldn't be surprising, inspired by Sam's recent quotes and with some other recent quotes/videos.

Metcalf

Like trying to catch smoke. Secret favorite player of all time.

 

He really cemented my love of Texas, Burnt Orange, and the only player I can think of that I'd fanboy if I met him in person. Still have his NFL Rookie Card. 🤘 Forever.

Its remarkable how bad those offenses were with Metcalf, the Cash brothers, Tony Jones, and Johnny Walker. Mark Murdock, Shannon Kelly were not the answer. Imagine if someone had the foresight to hire someone besides McWilliams, and implement a high-powered offense with good QB play.

Imagine? Shiiiiiit, fantasize about Aggy not having the 80's to hang their shitty little hat on. What I remember most is the inconsistency of the offense. Like a car engine with two bad spark plugs. Best compliment I heard about Metcalf came from an Aggy friend that said, "He's the only one. I never worried about any Texas player like Metcalf. That guy could take it to the house at any time."

I think it was during the McWilliams tenure, but there’s a slim chance it was Akers at the end, but I remember one ESPN game where we were particularly pathetic on offense against aggy, and former Pitt coach Mike Gottfried on color was just completely baffled how bad we were, no rhyme or reason for what we were doing. 

Speaking of Pitt, regarding the Metcalf run against them in the ‘87 Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl mentioned upthread, that’s one of my great jaw dropping moments watching football. Similar to the GIF above when he was a Brown, but it was a run to the left, and he did the most amazing slalom move while seemingly still running full speed... he actually gave up a yard or two in the zigzag movement, sliding about three yards toward the sideline... but he was quickly north-south again for a big gain, maybe a TD. Ed Biles was doing color, and almost shit himself with excitement (maybe he did). I can’t find the highlight, damn it.

I haven't been following as closely as I should. Have we already had the update where we're told the new S&C coach is really focusing on technique?

I mean I realize its been about 7 weeks now, but he just won a fucking Natty with a 3-star QB from Florida who is now projected in the top 5 of the NFL draft for fucks sake.

Woke up this morning realizing how stunned we all will be several months from now when we see this team play better than any Texas team since 2009. It will cause us all to wonder what took so long to get a qualified coach in the door.
