  1. 1) Quinn is going through his progressions. He comes back to his crossing route, which looks to be the only open read. However, Conner gets beat and Quinn gets hit as he throws. 2) We are running a variation of a split zone rpo, with a backside slant. We run Outside Zone, turn the DE loose, and the H-back(Sanders) is responsible for coming across the formation and kicking out the unblocked backside DE. Sanders whiffs on the block, which means Quinn has to throw it right now or get sacked. If Sanders doesn't miss Quinn can throw it a beat later in the open window in the gap between the line and the kicked out DE. The free rusher tips the ball instead. 3) Everyone is covered. Quinn throws this one away. 4) We tried to run that concept that was ran against us where a receiver runs up the seam to occupy the deep defenders and the receiver behind him runs sort of a stutter and post. They passed it off pretty well so Quinn just chucked it out the back of the EZ. For those that said he should've waited to clear, watch the rusher juke Bijan. If Quinn doesn't throw it then he is sacked. 5) Worthy gets bumped by a DB on the slant and got the call. IMO he should makea better attempt to catch the ball because you never know if you are going to get that call. Ball is high but if you are watching Helm whiffs on his block and the rusher is free and in Quinn's face. 6) Overload blitz to the left. Two rushers completely untouched. This is essentially a throwaway. 7) Worthy is open but there is a DB underneath the route. I have no idea what the thought was here. Maybe he is throwing in the only window he has, to the left of the DB and to the sideline. Can't tell if it would've been deflected from this angle. 😎 On this screen you are just supposed to slip the block and not contact them, especially if you weigh 160lbs. This is KRob's fault. 9) Steve decides to take a customary shot. Worthy gets the outside release they are looking for. Watch his feet. There is a safety cheating but the intial move tells you they are looking to get to the outside. Quinn holds the safety and throws a ball to THE CORRECT SHOULDER and Worthy drops it. Had this been thrown inside it could likely have been picked. 10) This is bad footwork Quinn. He fakes the handoff and just flips it out there like he is playing 2nd base. Terrible throw. When he turns and throws he is accurate. I think one of the reasons I don't lose my shit over QE's off throws is because once you rewind them you see a lot of time he has someone almost hitting him. So he throws a lot of balls where he doesn't step into them or he is kinda retreating. I think once we stop getting whipped up front and quit allowing immediate pressure his clock will slow down and he will start stepping into throws.
  2. As was mentioned earlier in the thread. The truly talented aren't coming if you are recruiting a bunch of mercenaries through the portal for their position. They want to play right away so they can leave asap. Portal in good linemen and don't get Banks. That's usually how it goes. So I agree the build strategy is sound. Big physical linemen. Top notch signal callers. Good running backs. Elite wide receiver. The other side of the ball may need to portal to catch up. Hopefully there is some quality out there to patch up some graduating losses.
  3. Yes they went 10-3. Jamaal Charles was in the backfield and they still had a lot of talent. Colt's completion percentage was always high because he didn't make a lot of low percentage throws. He made his name working inside of his abilities, because he didn't have arm talent to make the big NFL throws. He still had 18 picks. That's more than an interception a game. The point was when you combine a bad O-line and an inability to run consistently, you get a lot of bad throws and turnovers from a young QB.
  4. That's the playbook for ANY good running team with a freshman QB.
  5. You are asking for FUTURE analysis, which is all speculation. Neither of our 23 classes are signed. No one has currently portaled out for them OR for us. What we know is RIGHT NOW, at this very moment, they have all the things we are struggling with short of QB. If we had the players they have THIS YEAR that we need, how much better would we be right now? Linemen, receivers, edge rushers, linebackers, and secondary. Aggy has never been good. However, the last time aggy had an uptick was when we went through a similar period. That is not a coincidence.
  6. That's it. Now I am sure Quinn had sex with Derka's sister.
  7. Lol. I take time off because I am a busy father. Let's check the aggy temperature NOW. We need some interior D-linemen to replace Sweat and Coburn. Aggy landed two 5 stars in that position last year. We could use an explosive receiver that isn't afraid to fight for a ball. Have you seen Evan Stewart play? In fact, aggy landed 8 5-stars last year. Players we could've had. Lucky for us their QB situation is what it is, but make no mistake, they are hurting us in recruiting.
  8. It's not about how their team looks its about how they are taking away recruits from us. I don't know where you are in the state, probably DFW, but you need to check the temperature. Aggy has been building in popularity since we've been down. Kids now are coming up believing and wanting to go to Aggy over Texas. They have never been more popular, and Aggy is using it to take over the state and balloon their enrollment. When Aggy is outrecruiting us that's a problem. Luckily they can't evaluate QBs. We can't afford losing anymore ground to them, or anyone else coming in here and stealing the state's best players.
  9. WTF are you even talking about? Lol. This post sounds like projection. Look around dumb ass. I am not the one flailing about crying about Texas Football. No doom and gloom here. That's you guys. Constantly making posts about fire this guy or that. I don't have 10-20k posts here. I pop on here for stretches and am off for stretches. This shit doesn't matter to me, and hasn't for 15 years.
  10. As Twice just explained whether the coach needed to go or not, perception is reality. The perception is we have a short leash with coaches. When you fire coaches THE GUY that the kids signed on for is no longer there. Some of them feel abandoned and are scared if the new guy will see them as an asset. So they bolt. The transitional class is almost always shit as well. Good coaches are hesitant to come here due to that perception as well, despite all the benefits of being employed in the state of Texas. Penalties have to be paid when you've turned over as many coaches as we've had to in the amount of time we have.
  11. In the grand scope of things when it comes down to winning these one score games it really just comes down to how many Jaylan Ford's do you have. Guys that make plays when it's their turn to make them. We could've won every game we played if we just got that sack(Bama), didn't fumble(Tech), didn't drop a pass or caught the three INTs that hit us in the hands(OSU). TCU seems to have a guy play big whenever there is a need for someone to step up. They had a bad game plan. They even called some "play not to lose" plays to close it out but guys made the plays they needed to.
  12. Yes you fucking do you dumbass mfer. You fire coaches the way we do you start giving all the other schools ammo to negative recruit against you. Good coaches don't want to come here and deal with this toxic bullshit, so here we are with Sark. Kids hit the portal as soon as the coach is gone. That's how we got where we are. In case you haven't noticed Aggy been wearing our ass out in recruiting since 19, well before NIL. You know why that's happening? Because of negative recruiting. We lost almost all the good players from Herman's good classes. We have to take our lumps and climb back up the hill, and that process takes a couple years. I see improvement both on the field and in recruiting so I am ok waiting. Your example of "how you do it" is Sonny Dykes?
  13. Calm. The Fuck. Down. No one thinks its acceptable, but we have to pay our dues for past sins.
  14. This is a dumb take. Colt was solid his freshman year. He was surrounded by VY's championship team. The line. Jamaal Charles. All of it. However, remind us what happened the next year when the line couldn't open up holes, and we lost a couple keys guys on the other side of the ball. I will tell you, 18 interceptions happened. Colt is one of the greatest QBs ever to play here and the fanbase was ready to string him up his sophomore year.
  15. Riley brought his players with him. Oregon was a 10 win team who's coach left of his own free will. LSU is a few years from running the table. Notre Dame was 11-1 last year. We all see the upperclassmen at TCU, who was bitten by the injury bug last year pretty bad. None of these were schools that spent the last 12 years wandering the desert. BK at LSU is solid but we will see if the other coaches are good once the previous coach's players move on. That mindset you have is exactly how we got Tom Herman. The next new shiny object. One year of success with someone else's kids doesn't make the coach.
  16. Finally as if he has been here for years. Lol
  17. You guys spent all last year proclaiming how PK didn't know what he was doing and it was actually Lake that was the good coach and not PK. Literally every single ridiculous take that can be imagined was said. Meanwhile it was actually just they need experience and time in the scheme and a couple players to come in and contribute. Weird. Who would think that's all it was? Go read the PK thread and you will see group think.
  18. I am glad you appreciate it. Thanks for contributing to the thread.
  19. The board absolutely suffers from group think. Always has. You can set your watch by it. There are technical reasons why we lose or struggle, but you guys throw all that shit out the window. Last week we couldn't run the football. That was because TCU's aggressive front was whipping the interior of our line. We are weak at the guard/center spot, and teams try to attack us there. Whether you have the manpower to do that to us or not dictates if we can run on you not how many times we hand it to Bijan. TCU backed that up by loading the box. KU did not and paid the price. A lot of people on this board struggle seeing what is going on, or aren't watching the game fully. They say shit like we made no adjustments in the second half when we did but they didn't work. It's happened time and time again. We call for the backup when the starter is struggling and then find out why the backup is the backup. I argue those points and here we are. "Ryan Watts sucks we need to get him out of there". Backup comes in and immediately gives up explosives. This is who Surly is.
  20. Just pointing out all the crybabies. Last year you guys swore PK was the dumbest motherfucker on the planet. A year later the defense is playing pretty well and we have completely moved off that dialogue as if we can't pull up the thread and look. Now it's the offense can't do this or that. This team is improving. D-better. Special teams better. )-line better. The passing offense is having some growing pains but the team is improving and recruiting is looking solid. Totally different than the last two guys. running game is solid. The last bit of the puzzle is QB/Receiver. We get that fixed and we are likely in the hunt next year.
  21. Pull that post up. I wanna see who said that.
  22. No shit. He is a freshman. A ton of shit to work on.
