    The good news is by the end of the spring game Surly will be able to declare if we have to the worst OL or the worst DL in the country. Will be nice to have closure. 

    If Don Knotts is a DL and Tiny Tim is the opposing OL, and they battle to a stand still does that mean they are both stellar?

     

    I didnt think so either....

    For those who know ball, are carriers taught to tuck their heads when taking a hit? I know tacklers are told to keep their heads and eyes up, but it seems like Neyor is putting his head closer to the point of contact and potentially in the line of fire when doing that. I also understand that a person naturally tenses up when pain is imminent. 

    did you ever get to see Earl when he knew a hit was coming?....He would cock his head back and knock crap out of the tackler with it.

  3. the astros used to have this right fielder named Hunter Pence. He had the worst looking rag arm sideways throw you ever saw. Every opponent would take extra bases  every time he got the ball.....until they began to notice the throws were almost always right on the money accurate. He led the league in put outs.

    The point is....it shouldnt make a damn how the ball is thrown as long as it gets there.

    I mean no disrespect to James Street, but he is nowhere near the best Texas QB 

    I get where you are coming from, but even still he is the only Texas QB to date that never lost a game in like 20 or so starts. Would I take him over VY or Colt or Bobby Layne?

    Maybe not, but none of those guys could have done any better than he did.

  5. y'all may not remember but perhaps the best QB to ever grace the 40 acres (20 straight starts....all wins and absolute nails on every big play....James Street) did not even get to start until his junior year. IDK if he was good or bad before that time, as I never saw him take a snap before then.

     

    I am beginning to think we as a group are beginning to take this spring training crap more seriously than aggy.

    dont forget there is no X with Herman. 

    Jesus!...No X???....hell...with Herman there is no Ewers...there is zero chance to land Manning....and who knows who (whom?) else going forward. Let us never forget that Herman had a commitment from the highest ranked recruit since Vince Young and he ran him off. Will Ewers be all that?...I hope he will....maybe not, but at least there are a damned lot of smart football people that think he will ball out.

    Could Sark be the next Saban?...the odds are way against that, but Saban did not start out lights out either.

    What is the over/under on how many threads there are on texaggy claiming they deserve to be in the playoffs?

    are you crazy?....aggy beat Bama....they dont need no stinkin' playoffs! They already have the stone masons working on their stadium "wall of aggy champs" showing aggy to be the Natty winner this year by acclimation.....

  8. my take is that if Casey's thumb is ok we will win going away. If his thumb aint ok who knows what will happen. We lost two weeks in a row because of that thumb, I just hope we dont go for the hat trick.
