2019 Spring Game: April 13, 6:30 PM

[Slacks 6,791]

Holy shit.  Guys who played after I graduated have kids on the team?

You're old. Get over it.

[NeverMarryAStripper 21,781]

This game reminded me of Maryland. I got drunk. I had a good time. And I was told afterwards that we sucked.

Sounds like most of my sexual experiences

He was shivering. Give the man a heater.

Lots of OL work ahead for Coach Hand this season.....

Seems like early praise for 1st team OL by Hermanator may need to be tempered a little until the grad transfer OL arrives.....

TH has a history of overestimating his OL talent--remember his first year here?

That scrimmage yesterday was a Kool-Aid Buzz Kill.

There was a lot of people there and they were fucking hyped. Surprised how many students new a lot of his songs. Extremely fun concert. 

Just curious,... UT grad?

Agreed. But that's not his game. 

Amen. Why they looked at Shark and Roach and determined Shark should play closer to the line of scrimmage will baffle most of us.

With a coach like Orlando, who likes to experiment, there are bound to be some bad ideas I guess...

[pacman 7,324]

Fuck me with all the Wiley looked bad hot takes....it's almost like he has never played TE before and has been billed a long term project from day one...

video suggested an empty stadium except for players signing autographs.  Did this 'concert' start at 10pm?

Well if the purpose of this spring game was to watch folks stumble around, drop balls and create a lot of questions, they succeeded.

I hope the folks who ridiculed the aggy spring game will go back and delete their posts.

The concert started at 8:30. The 9th floor of the stadium was packed. Good drinks and food and they closed the windows to block out all the wind. There were lots of ex players there.

[NowThis 931]

so how many of Strong's recruits are on the team?

I believe their intention is to play the best players even if they’re out of position/unsuited for it. Hager playing 4i is an unfortunate example.

Yeah, to their detriment at times. Hager playing 4i. Or falling into the Naashan Hughes event horizon. I’d prefer to just play the best defense instead of the best 11. Like when we stumbled into the lightening package in 2017.  

[NowThis 931]

wtf is "4i", how about DE?

It was in the LBJ lawn. Not the stadium.

We have two different DE positions that require different skillsets.

DE-1 and DE-2 would have been too difficult.

Slot receiver vs. flanker. Fullback vs tailback. Weakside linebacker vs middle linebacker. Things have names.

yes, generic names have been around for decades, but it's dainty to have coaching staffs make up positions just for sake of appearing sophisticated.  Fans be like "damn, that shit is complex, he must be a genius with the 4i and FJX package with 4matic blitz!"

The 4 means the gap he lines up in and the i means inside shoulder. Not everyone is a stupid moron

I can't believe people take any stock in a spring game lol. 

Herman should just script the first 4 plays and throw hail Mary's for 80 yard td's and tell then CB to act like they are trying but let's excite the crowd. wait, no then surly would melt down about pass coverage and the defense sucks! Damn I didn't think about that. I'll get back to you guys on another way for the perfect Spring Game so we know for certain the upcoming season is a grand slam.

Remember how awesome we looked in the spring game right before the 2010 season?

That’s when I learned to stop paying attention to preseason scrimmages. They’re not really diagnostic of anything. 

Remember the spring game when Desean Hales looked like Percy Harvin?

It's pretty telling when I still can't find any spring game highlights video. FML

The secondary and Shark looked pretty good. Other than, pretty unremarkable.

Coburn and Ossai looked solid, too.

Duvernay showed good wiggle the only time he was targeted.

Why bother to differentiate between DE and DT?  Aren't they all DL?

DEs and DTs can align in a variety of different ways.4i is inside eye on the OT.  Typical 4-3 DE aligns in either a 5 tech (outside shoulder of the OT) or 7 tech (outside the TE).

[Knoxtnhorn 5,929]

I had promised a video yesterday.  I'm home and have added to the "Tell me about OU" thread.  I thought it was kind of funny.

Your mom was wide open all night and showed good wiggle each time I targeted her in the middle and when I gave it to her in the backfield.

too much customization, which is a recent trend, the standards are being watered down too much.  I don't like Weakside LB either; keep it OLB MLB OLB. The 4i concept breaks the symmetrical definitions.

Replay on LHN.  Looks like a defensive struggle.
