Quote

The five-star Cuero product dominated the Gobblers’ 4A Division 2 state title win over Pleasant Grove at AT&T Stadium, totaling 377 yards — including 334 on the ground, which broke NFL legend Eric Dickerson’s Texas state title game record — six touchdowns and 11 tackles, leading to him claiming the game’s offensive and defensive MVP awards.

I said this when it happened, but that is just straight up fucking crazy.

Anytime you break a record set 37 years before by Eric Dickerson, that's a good thing, right?

I remember that.  You really taught all of us who thought that was a pretty pedestrian effort a thing or two that day.

You serious, Clark?

Despite some freshman jitters he looked great in the spring game.  Of course he was being featured a ton given the weather.  Need to improve the blocking a bit but the rest looks great and welcome because of the transfers and lack of other options in the RB room.  Ingram and Whittington, Whittington and Ingram, can't wait.

Anyone who gives Dickerson an F you, in any way, is beloved in my book.

Based on his 99.5 to 1 rep to posts ratio, I'd say he's joking with you.

All-time leader in wearing goggles?

[Not a cat 5,660]

A joke employing hyperbole, obviously.  Dickerson is an ass but his driving to Dallas in a maroon trans am has to be one of the great recruiting stories of all time.

It was a gold trans am provided by aggy that he drove to Dallas in order to commit to SMU.

[Not a cat 5,660]

My bad.  Gold or maroon, still hilarious to me thinking of aggy realizing there's not a damn thing they can do to get that car back.

I have threadshit with my ill timed comment so I'll try to get it back- Jordan looked damn good.  Exciting to see him spell Ingram and play some slot or wherever else they can line him up.

2,105 yards, bro.  

[Thetexashammer 1,062]

I thought he looked really good running the ball in the Spring Game.

[Tex Long 4,409]

There should be a few opportunities to go HUNH with both Whittington and Ingram on the field. Having either or both being receiver or runner on any given snap would be a problem for opponents' DCs. Just a bit, just a little problem. And having CJ and Epps to throw to on the same playset. Could be... interesting. After the third play, they'd have to burn a TO to get things stopped, or have someone fall over and pretend to be hurt for a play or two.

 

EDIT: Sorry, forgot:  XII refs just throw a flag and give them a free stoppage. Or not.

I’ll fucking take 1 year if we can get it from him.  He’s very injury prone.  He’s had injury problems going back to high school.  He has a similar body type to Kirk Johnson, where he’s jacked out of his mind, but a bit too lean to take constant hits.  I hope the transition to H will lesson those hits for him.  He’s an elite talent that can turn a 5 yard catch into a 50 yard touchdown, there were coaches that thought he was the most talented player on the team last fall camp.

I think he means the only thing that could hold him back is complacency.

[shadow_operative 15,932]

Dude balled out today. His RB skills when running after the catch are awesome. He's gonna be the favored target for Card going forward, and i'm all for it. 

[pacman 7,359]

Sark had his arm around Whittington's shoulders as we sang the eyes. Tremendous effort from him today.

[Funk Doctor Spock 12,438]

Whittington + Bijan is a nasty combo for any qb to have, and we're blessed to have them. Jesus this is a great feeling. Get Worthy some more reps and we're burning mf'ers. 

 

Edit: and K Robinson is a freak, too. Good God this is great.
