OB reporting Quinn is dealing with a high ankle sprain and reinjured his oblique against aggy.

Not really new information, Quinn has been dealing with these injuries for a while.

Quote

 Longhorn quarterback Quinn Ewers will fight through a high ankle sprain and another injury on Saturday. I was told Ewers reinjured his oblique last week and has received treatment after practice throughout the week. Ewers will start against Georgia. Nevertheless, the goal is for Ewers to become as healthy as possible between now and Saturday.

I think Helm is underrated. Guy clearly took a big step up. His hands are legit. Sark wields him like a weapon.

JT Sanders was damn good all around at UT. He's a guy who also made a big jump suddenly. He was a big part of Sark's offense.  

Scouts are starting to comp him to Travis Kelce….thats high praise.

You guys have trouble with what is right in front of you. Helm is better than Sanders but when they were on the same team(same recruiting class too) Helm couldn't beat Sanders out. The easy answer is maybe Sanders was just a better receiver. But no you guys twist yourselves in knots to justify how Helm "grew" into a better receiver than Sanders in the 8 months since Sanders left.

Williams is better than Jones. Almost all the pressure, gaffs, and batted balls are coming from that side of the line. The easy answer is that Jones was better than Williams but you guys twist yourselves in knots to say how Williams is better than Jones ignoring the evidence of even Campbell saying Jones helped him stay solid with protections.

Offensive productivity drops after losing 7 players on the offensive side of the ball. Seems like the most logical conclusion would be the 7 players we lost on offense, but no it's all just simply because the quarterback regressed. Offenses usually keep humming along at the same pace after losing their 5 star back and 6 players to the NFL right?

We couldn't seem to connect on anything downfield to Worthy in 22 at all so Sark went to the portal, got AD, and turned X into a short to intermediate guy and things seemed to get fixed. Mahomes never struggled missing wide open Hill before. They got rid of Hill and struggled with receivers failing to get sep vs DBs which was killing their big play passing game. So they went and got some real speed again but can't hit dude even though he is wide ass open. The logical fucking answer is maybe like we found out X just isn't a deep threat receiver since no one has ever seen him catch the ball downfield with any regularity. Ever. Even though we've seen X with 5 different quarterbacks now, including the best one in the NFL. But no. It has to be because Mahomes footwork right?

I have admitted what I think Ewers' issues are plenty of times in this thread. It is you guys that blame every single thing that happens negatively on offense on him.

The Cam vs Jones is debatable. The other 4 OL having another year makes that a moot point. There is no doubt the OL is better this year.

Helm is not only a better tight end …..he was on a different developmental path doesn’t make him not better. 

I read this as “doesn’t make him not butter.” Then I was gonna go down a whole path of that 1990s margarine called “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” versus real butter as an analogous reflection of this debate between Helm and Sanders. Then, I’d be able to circle back and use both bread spreads on a loaf of Quinn. 
 

That’s how bad this thread sucks. I had all of those thoughts and felt it was reasonable.

If Quinn is so beat up, why not sit? Are you really helping the team with all the turnovers? There’s starters on this team who have been benched for the same level of inconsistency. Gbenda, Blue, Campbell, Moore, etc. Quinns only been benched for a quarter. If he turns the ball over on our side of the field in the SECCG, get the man a tablet.

CJ echoing the info from OB yesterday. 

Spoiler

– I am told Quinn Ewers is still a bit wobbly, but the expectation of course is he will start the game at quarterback for the Longhorns. Ewers started this week off very similar to that of last week in terms of participation and intensity level in practice – which has slowly risen as the week has progressed.

Ewers, even beyond the ankle, isn't 100%, but I do not have confirmation on what the additional irritation is, just that something else is hampering him.

There are a lot of cons to sitting him, as well as pros for it. I would assume Sarkisian doesn't want to put Arch into this kind of environment as a starter yet, and he also doesn't want to create more psychological issues for Ewers. I would assume there will be an Arch package like there was last week, which also leaves the door open for Arch to play more is Sarkisian deems it necessary. I am ok with that.

I can only assume the "Arch package" will have him throw on his first play, just to fuck with UGA's perception that he's obviously in to run the ball.  I am a genius.

CJ Vogel is the credentialed on site reporter and booth guy for ontexasfootball.

He's a Texas journalism grad and does a really good job, plus he's a cool guy. 

His in game takes are whatever, but his sources are real and he has really good ties with the players as he's still in his 20s and can fit in with them without being a weirdo old jicksniffer type.

I’m not sure that’s the case. I will say it seems like Sark is being as vanilla as possible all around if he can to prevent putting stuff on film. Or maybe he hasn’t thought to do some of it. I’d rather see them use it in a game before they needed it.

I was half joking but arch passing out of those formations as a change of tendency seems inevitable

If we know that then sark knows that. If sark knows that then kirby has to know that. If kirby knows that then sark most definitely knows that he knows that. It’s so simple. 

. . . and then Kirby splits his prep time for both threats by Arch + whatever it is Quinn does.

Saban’s Gameday analysis of the first Texas Georgia game showed how difficult Georgia makes it for the QB. Not only do they have hosses up front, they disguise coverages really well. I suspect Sark knew that Arch hadn’t progressed enough to be able to deal with it any better than Quinn.

That’s really the part of the QB position that casual fans can’t easily see. The ability to recognize coverages in a split second and deliver the ball to the right place is really difficult. It’s not always just about throwing a great long ball, or the ability to move around the pocket or run well, or throwing an accurate pass. 

Let’s all hope Quinn handles the complexity and pressure better this time around.

A capable running game helps here. Last game OL got stool pushed in and running game didn’t help

I don’t think he’s been completely healthy since he got hurt vs UTSA. It’s the most logical explanation for struggling more than usual.
