come to think of it, i'm not sure Sam makes even makes the list of the best 50 UT football players since 2000. if he does he is definitely going to listed in the 40's, no higher. but yeah, he's a total fucking UT football legend. 🙄 

did he put up some good numbers? yes, he did. he played 4 years of QB at a school with very little QB/forward passing history in an era where QB numbers are wildly inflated compared to even just 10 years ago. of course he put up numbers. but as a football player, who is he better than? is he better than Cory Redding? what about Shaun Rogers? was he better than Justin Blaylock? David Thomas? shit, how many guys from the 2005 team alone were better than Sam? like 15-20? more? 

you people who incessantly STAN this kid like he's a two-time Heisman winner are a huge reason that so many of us are ready for the Sam Ehlinger era to be over. Easily- EASILY the most overrated player in UT history, and it's because of his cult-like following, which consists of a bunch of people who don't know dick about Texas football history. i could not be more ready for him and his followers to be gone. i really really like Sam Ehlinger and I wish him well, but i am beyond over this practice of wildly overhyping him as a player and "Texas football legend". 

how many people that you 'really really like' have gotten restraining orders against you?

how about:

Derka// cured covid, beat the Russians to space, freed the slaves and then taught Tebow how to circumcise babies, all while Tom Herman and Sam's teammates tried to sabotage him at every turn.//Derka

He brought stability and leadership at a time when it was desperately needed. He's a dude you want on your team for sure. He was a great example for younger guys to follow. And now those younger guys are a little older and it's time for the mantle to be passed.

 

And yeah, idk about "Texas legend". Most people don't get to start at that position for 4 years, and he only beat OU once.

Not me, I'd love for Sam to return as Casey's backup. We can work him in at H-back, too.

Speaking of hyperbolic, when he was in high school, weren't you the one that once said he wasn't good enough to take a snap at Texas and would transfer before he ever played?

Not as Casey’s backup but WITH Casey in the backfield. A new wishbone. Casey, Sam, RoJo, and Bijan.

Yes, at H-back which is a hybrid fullback/TE position. But, I'm sure Sam would make a good full time FB, too. Ask Sophia about my football IQ. It's off the fucking charts.

no one is bigger than the program and the reason saban is saban is because he will bench a senior QB for a true freshman at halftime of a national title game.

if the reports of sam moving on are true he leaves on a high note with his career and legacy here intact.

unlike mack.

[APMP 688]

Grew up a stone's throw from the 40 acres and attending games. Dreamt of only ever playing for one college team. People can and will pick at the results, and that is fair. We are Texas.

But to me it is pretty indisputable that he gave all he had when he was on the field. Didn't quit on the team, ever. I doubt another QB at Texas took as many hits over the course of their career (Colt might have come close vs. Suh lol). He shouldn't ever have to buy a drink in Austin.

Thank you, Sam. And good luck with whatever's next.

[BrazilHorn 6616]

Trust BON to be full “cunt mode”. I don’t want Sam back as Thompson and Card would bail as they don’t have to sit. The thought of the QB room being Sam and Charles Wright is terrifying given Sam’s playing style. 
I wish Sam all the best but it is time to go.

Godspeed Sam. Left it all on the field and a really quality dude.

Sam, thank you for the ride. Hook 'em 🤘

 

[Acropora 856]

Wow.  I am so incredibly thankful for everything Ehlinger has done for this program.  He's been a fantastic representative of the university and he's going to be incredibly successful in life, whether it's catching on in the nfl, coaching or anything outside of football.

Thank you Sam!

Thanks Sam. Wasn't able to get us to where we needed to be but no one can question his love for the university. Looking forward to seeing what Thompson/Card can do.

[MoJames 8244]

Hookem Sam.

[Effyourcouch 125]

Thank you, Sam. 

[Macklemore 2872]

Sam gave everything he had to the Horns. He and his family should be very proud of what he accomplished. He excelled in the classroom and on the field and brought pride back to the program after the dark years of the Strong era. Thanks for standing up for the Eyes too. Hook em Sam.

[MontereyMX 869]

He’s a bad ass human! 

[victory88 5669]

Sam took us from quarterback hell and an offense that couldn’t even muster 100 yards against a shitty Arkansas team to what we have now.  We are light years better.  He carried this team on his shoulders and I’m proud that he’s a longhorn.  Kick ass Sam!  Hook em!

Lastly, he will always be a legend in my eyes for telling that midget Kyler “take the loss pussy”.

[Nicole44 22063]

Thanks Sam! Wish you every future success. Hope he gets drafted by Tampa Bay or another team where he can at least sit a year.

[Longboard Horn 40363]

Hook em Sam! 🤘🏻 He represented the University of Texas with class and got us out of QB limbo. Now onto the NFL to carry a clipboard for $4M a year.  Best job in the NFL.

I don't want to, can't, and will not hate on Sam in any way.  Last true Longhorn as far as I'm concerned.

All the best to you Sam.

Thank you!

New Orleans, he plays well in that stadium 

[TreatyOak 16366]

Thanks, Sam, for giving it your all. And as I stated earlier in this thread, I believe he absolutely trolled the fuck out of Turtle and I hope it contributed to his firing.

Sad day. Sam is all class. He deserved a better ending. He deserved better coaching and better teammates. We were lucky to have him.

 

Will never forget his class after the OU game this year.
