  1. Alright men, qbs and rbs with coach Drayton, ball security drills today. WRs with me, we’re drilling strategically advocating for yourself while always remaining respectful. Let’s get better today, Horns on three!
  2. Are you asking if we are doing “whine about a flag to the ref” drills?
  3. Wow. I was pretty bullish that he would carve out a place in the league but no way did I expect he’d be able to play his way into an actual qb competition for a starting spot before his first preseason game. He got drafted into a good situation (Eason sucks) and the injury to Wentz changed things, but still. Good for him, would be incredible to see him win the job until Wentz returns.
  4. Yeah, hard pressed to find a better position group that is setup for this season and into the future than Rb right now. Also, props to RoJo for working his ass off. Dude gives a shit.
  5. Evan Stewart is gone unless we somehow start SEC play for '22. Not sure anything less than making the playoffs this season will entice him into one or (gasps and throws up a little) two seasons in the Big12 before making the jump. I know the last few months has made it feel like we’ll never land another elite player but in theory we were right in the mix for him before he knew there might be a chance to play for UT in the SEC. And technically got him to commit to Texas when we were seemingly committed to the Big12 for the long haul.
  6. You stupid lemmings. Sure, listen to the “botanists” that say plants need water. Imma think for myself, only one thing I give my plants:
  7. Like a lot of you, I’m just tired and feeling hopeless about all of it. Lamar Jackson has gotten COVID twice, but still just isn’t sure if he should get the vaccine, he really needs to do the research and consider both sides. On one side he has access to some of the best doctors in the country who are almost certainly telling him to get vaccinated based on all available peer reviewed evidence and their collective expertise. On the other, some loud friends and family and Reddit conspiracies without any factual basis. Tough, but what’s important is we don’t judge him as he makes this difficult personal choice.
  8. Yeah this is basically what I'm thinking. The SAM (Ovie or Davis) would primarily be coming off the edge or stunting in this look, correct? He'll rarely be asked to carry a TE down the seam or drop back into a zone and cover slot guys.
  9. I don’t think we’re missing anyone specifically at that spot, and it would be pretty surprising if Gbena couldn’t beat him out there given the hype he was getting in the spring. I may be off base, but it sounds like that is the least important LB spot on the defense for the most part. Whoever wins the spot mostly won’t be on the field on 3rd downs or against obvious passing looks.
  10. He played WR at Lake Travis until Baldwin graduated, but he’s always been a qb. He’s probably had private coaching at that position since he was in the sixth grade.
  11. Tell me you don't spend any time in Southern California without telling me.
  12. Another press release from Bowlsby. He must be exhausted, poor guy isn't used to having to do any work on consecutive days.
  13. Fucking Brando. Most of the time announcers being biased against your team is pretty overblown but I've never seen anything like that last game he called. He was crushed that we came back and won that Tech game. At least Spencer Tillman went to OU, Brando is just a cunt.
  14. Opting out of his last two years of HS and announcing an Oregon commitment in conjunction with an exclusive Nike shoe line.
  15. Congrats to some of you old guys on your ability to navigate the intranets as well as you do. I went to earlier games but the first one I remember well is the RRS in '95, which was a tie. First game I remember at Memorial was later that season, a win against Baylor. My first game as a student was our opener against Louisiana Lafayette my first year on campus. We wore beautiful throwbacks, I drank way too much Southern Comfort before the game, and it was the start of a rather memorable season:
  16. Opting out and enrolling is a pretty good deal for Ewers but I can’t see this being an especially positive development for OSU really.
  17. Haha, yeah this is dumb. While it's probably generally true that the presidents won't want to testify, this thing is a LONG fucking way from that being a real concern for anyone. Both Universities have a ton of outs to avoid it before it gets anywhere close.
  18. Just sit back and watch those mouth breathers try and change the narrative that they allowed UT to enter the SEC because they kindly decided to save little brother from obscurity.
  19. I was actually lumping Looch, the administration, and the athletic department all together when I said "they". Functionally there is very little separation between TexAgs and the institution.
  20. Once you saw the shift in real-time where the Looch and the others started posting positively about the move and how it was actually a good thing this was clear. They got their marching orders and were told to shut the fuck up about it.
  21. Bowlsby's entire vibe here reminds me of that Office episode where Creed fucks up some quality control responsibility he has and bad paper goes out. - "and of course, the one year I blow it off, this happens..."
