Check some of TFB's retweets. Guarantee you that's exactly what it is.

Quote

“You could ask him, out of nowhere, ‘Hey, what’s this play?’ from a game prior … and he would go down the board of everybody’s responsibility,” says Bru McCoy, a five-star athlete in the class of 2019 and Daniels’s best friend since seventh grade. “He watched so much film that he knew the plays by heart in order, by number, just literally from going through constantly, clicking it through and playing it over and over.”

Article about JT Daniels on The Ringer.  Didn't realize they were best buds.  He goin to USC.

I see no mention of Watson or his dad?

Anyway, that coach is a dumbass for having full contact practice with no pads, wtf mate, trying to make football rugby?

Having said that, such protests would have been unheard of back in my day...snowflakes were encouraged to quit and try out for the golf team or something, and parents wouldn't really speak up either unless it was something really bad.

That's.....a really dumb reason to walk out (assuming that's not the only reason.)

"arm tackle to the leg" or "helmet and shoulder in the hip" what's the difference?

Shoulder and helmet never touched his hip. That kid dove and reached out with a hand and grabbed his ankle lol.

What's dumb is going full-contact with no pads/helmet and just shorts. 

[Hank_Hill 20054]

....why? I mean I guess a shirt would turn down the douche factor a little.

Torn on this one.  I do think that so many football-related injuries are from poor form and players throwing their bodies around because they are armored up.  If you are forced to make contact, yet don't have the luxury of a helmet and pads, you have to have proper form.

Similar to a boxer (vs. bare knuckle fighter) taping his hand up like a hard-cast and pounding on a wooden door.  Take off the tape, and you can't hit as hard; and if the angle of your punch is off, you break all those small bones in your hand.  

Were there any injuries?

Really good evaluation by the Texas staff. 

I think LSU gets Cain. Aggy and LSU can't both be terrible this year. It's one or the other.

When we getting another croot?

[Katfid54 9005]

Chances that Brown is the most recent "Shh"?

[RabidM 2758]

I know I've read some people mention Jamaal Charles as a comp, but Brown doesn't have anywhere near that level of freaky athleticism.  I think Kam Martin is a better comp.  Good, not great athlete.  Somewhat slender build, but shows out against HS competition.  He could be productive if developed well and utilized properly.  Kam has done pretty well when he's played, but he can't take the hits.  Brown probably won't take the hits either.  As long as the role the staff has in mind fits his frame, he could be useful.  He's a nice complement to a traditional RB.
