Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
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.

NFL Week 17; Christmas-style
Pittsburgh is gonna lose because they don't want Garrett to get the sack record. Lol

That was some of the worst goal line playcalling I've seen in awhile. Even worse than drunk Sark.

Tell Me About Texas a&m
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.

Thank you for the correction sir! Was that the 83 defense?

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!

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.

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

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.

What's awesome about that play is if you go back and watch the game OSU ran that play to success earlier in the game. ET recognized it and jumped the route the second time they ran it.

As this smart dude named @JBJ we got roaming around this place alluded to, PK likes to run a tite front in his stack concept which has certain rules that activate the Jack end into dropping. A smart offensive coordinator could trigger that by choosing plays that force that drop with certain alignments and thereby take some pressure off his QB. Easy way to take Simmons out of the game.- Surly Dad Thread
You look exactly how I pictured. ISU proper brother. Also, us olds played the original of that game growing up.- BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
Crazier than that. Boom had 15 dudes drafted that he either coached or recruited here. 3 1st rounders, 3 2nd rounders, 2 3rd rounders, 4 4th rounders, 1 5th rounders, 1 6th rounders, and 1 7th. In that time we had 4 offensive players drafted. Colt, Ship, Goodwin, and Swaim. 3rd, 3rd, 3rd, and 7th respectively. That began the dark ages. From the time that Boom's last dudes left in 13 until Sark got here we sent roughly the same amount to league on both sides of the ball as he did on one side of the ball in his short time here.- Tell Me About Texas a&m
A couple things- This just got me thinking that in some ways I admire aggy. I barely made it through the 2010's. I couldn't imagine having to dust off my pants and fill up the ole optimism jar every. single. year. Aggy has boundless energy, right up there with Cleveland Browns fans. You gotta admire the "there is always next year" mentality.- BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
Ah, the Big12 and not calling holding to equalize the games. I don't miss those days at all.- BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
Dude- We have some serious PTSD. The amount of detail all of us remember about that game is astounding. I'm old. I frequently get flustered and call my wife with my daughter's name. I can't remember what I did last week. But I remember that game like I watched it last night. I even remember where I was and what I did directly after(took a walk around the block to cool down). The fact that all @lilMAC25 had to say is "Taafe woulda caught it" and everyone here immediately knew the exact play he was talking about is Crazy!- Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Game was decent. Quinn hits the TE and he fumbles. Comes back and throws an on target pass on a dig, db breaks on it, receiver tries to basket catch it which allows the db to reach around from behind him and get his hands on it. Deflected up in the air and intercepted. Cincy has all their weapons back, so they are scoring at will. Rookie QB. Down a few scores. Trying to make plays. That's all it was. He was fine when it wasn't obvious passing situations. It's easy to play defense when you are 3 scores up and know he has to throw.- BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
100%. Taafe doesn't drop that and we are in the title game! What a terrible night that was.- BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
What happened in 2010 is we were thin at DT. I can't remember all the circumstances as to why it happened. Anyway, there was a stretch of games where we had to play Alex Okafor at DT, and at 260 he just couldn't hold up inside. It was a vicious circle where we couldn't score to force teams to throw so they just ran power and counter right at him all game until one popped. Also, you guys gotta remember Mack was a meddler. He wanted the recruits he wanted, so at times Boom's hands were tied. Anywho, people gotta remember he was only here for 3 years. Barely long enough to get rolling.- BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
First, the 09 defense was better than the 08 one. I feel like some of you guys are young so let us olds regale you with tales of Muschamp's prowess as a defensive coach. Lamar Houston was a slow RB/LB from Colorado when he came to Texas. We tried him off the edge but when Boom came he recognized his power, put a lil weight on him and slid him inside to 3 tech where he would be a disruptor. Henry Melton came to Texas as a 240lb goal line RB and we used him as such until Boom came and flipped him to his side of the ball and got him to the league as a big DE who could slide inside. Sergio Kindle was a 5 star LB who couldn't play traditional LB because he was stupid. Boom put him at Jack end where he would go on to decapitate many a QB in his career. Earl Thomas was a undersized 3 star recruit from Orange Texas who was never supposed to play here. He had decent speed but was undersized at 5'9-10. Boom got him and turned him into the best safety in the country, and next to Thomas was Michael Taafe..I mean Blake Gideon, the Michael Taafe before Michael Taafe. People see the finished product with all these NFL players and don't realize that it was Boom's eye for talent that created that roster. They weren't all bunch of 5 stars. Guys were lost with no real role on the team. You had some real dummies like Chykie and Sergio. - BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
