  1. Fucking Steelers whole gameplan of chipping Garrett all game and only throwing short to keep Garrett from getting home, lost them the game this week.
  2. I mean dude split the doubleteam and was in the backfield immediately. How does that happen?
  3. Yeah, that's pretty much bs. Dude just signed up but just happens to know about Derka's opinions from years ago. I've argued with @Derka more than most, but I respect him, which is why we only argue on the topic of QBs. I don't think I've ever even negged the dude. Some dudes follow Derka around wherever he posts antagonizing him. Including creating new handles to do so. Weirdos.
  4. Pittsburgh is gonna lose because they don't want Garrett to get the sack record. Lol
  5. That was some of the worst goal line playcalling I've seen in awhile. Even worse than drunk Sark.
  6. Yeah, with all the short shit Miami is running the Bucs were trying to jump anything quick and got caught. TD
  7. This isn't the flex this dude thinks it is. Having guys go on to hall of fame careers while you are perennially 8-4 is not a good look for your program sir. Aggy is like the Los Angeles Clippers. It doesn't matter who plays for you. You are cursed to remain mediocre for all eternity. It might be time to bring in a Shaman or a couple of priests to sprinkle some holy water around campus. Or find out what evils you did to anger the football gods.
  8. Thatguy replied to LTtxfan's topic in Football
    Muschamp probably walked in the secondary room and slapped a list of his DBs and their draft positions on the wall and walked out.
  9. Thank you for the correction sir! Was that the 83 defense?
  10. I graded him a close second. Muschamp's 09 defense might be the best D we've ever had in my era. I cannot speak on Aker's defenses or prior. But what Greg Robinson did in 2013 might be nothing short of a miracle. The year prior Manny _iaz gave up 31, 36, 48, 63, 50, 42, and then 2nd game of 2013 Manny let QB Taysum Hill run for 259 yards, and BYU rush for 556 total(40 points). They let _iaz go and Greg turned the defense around immediately. I remember Steve Edmond looked like the worst linebacker ever and by the end of the season was solid. Impressive!
  11. Imagine waking up and seeing those eyes a foot from you in bed.
  12. 247, which was big back then, had him as a 3 star, but I am sure you could find some recruiting service that had him as a 4 star. I posted the 247 ranking above in the screenshot because its still up. 247 also did an interview with ET that I will post for @Revolution512. Since he's the kind of guy that needs receipts. https://247sports.com/college/texas/article/horns247-catching-up-with-earl-thomas-139891/ So there you go. The article talks about how we recruited him as a position-less athlete just like I said. Then ET goes on to talk about how they recruited bigger athletes that they believed in more than him. Lastly he tells of how even Akina didn't put him on the field when he was DC and Boom was the one that believed in him when no one else did. Straight from the horse's mouth. All this talk of ET being some dude the university saw as that guy is nonsensical hindsight. Now let's get back to talking about Boom.
  13. Black folks are gonna take care of Nicki. Don't you worry bout that. Also, I read a comment that said what Nicki Minaj did is called Kanyekaze'ing. Brilliant
  14. Lol. Who didn't get a super positive eval back in the MackBrownTexasFootball.com, orange slices era? Every report out of camp was "Chris Hall is greatly improved"and "Dan Buckner is dominating DBs in practice". Geezus! When ET came they didn't know what they were going to do with him. You literally just said it yourself, "I believe they even started him out at corner early on". If Akina recruited him to play safety then why did they try him at corner? Because they had bigger, more highly ranked dudes that they recruited to play safety and thought there wasn't any room for him there. The "ATH" designation tells you exactly that. They tried him at corner. He wasn't good at corner so they changed him to safety. He was a 3 star recruit who Boom turned into a 1st rounder at the position HE played in college and that's no coincidence considering Boom himself was Blake Gideon before Blake Gideon. Why are we arguing this anyway? You tried to discredit the guy as if he had a lockerroom full of 5 stars which is far far from reality. In 07 we gave up 32 to Central Florida, 41 to Kstate, 28 to OU, 35 to OSU, 25 to Nebraska, 43 to Tech, 38 to aggy, and 34 to ASU. The next year, with a brand new install, we only allowed 4 teams to score more than 21, and that includes Ohio State. In 09 only 3, and that includes a national championship game where it like 24-21 late with a QB who threw 4 picks. Idgaf who you are that's solid coaching, and that's why the dude has a Paul Bunyan like cult following. To a lesser degree, Greg Robinson did the same thing taking over after Manny _iaz. You gonna "Well actually..." him too? You
  15. Revisionist history eh? Were you paying attention when I said players were lost and had no role? Melton was a rb in 05 and 06. He had 11 total tackles in 07 and was a guy who was just there, doomed to stand on the sideline and get some mop up duty. Boom came and 29 tackles, 10 TFLs, 4 sacks, 2 PBUs, and 1 forced fumble. His single season playing under Boom. As far as ET is concerned, if you recall we grabbed 6 ft Safety Christian Scott who was in the Army All American game, and the year prior we had grabbed 6'2 safety James Henry who was in that year's Army All American game, as well as 4 star 6'2 Robert Joseph. ET was recruited as an athlete. He had no designation at that time. He was just supposed to be a filler guy. We were hearing he was more than his recruiting stars but that's a long way from the 14th overall pick in the draft.
