  1. Are you saying Jesus Christ can’t hit the deep ball?????
  2. I see what they’ve been talking about in regards to Ewers’ non-chalant demeanor. He looks kind of nervous to me, but hopefully it’s just his personality
  3. Surly meltdown in 3……..2…….1
  4. They had to cut back on letters due to the labor shortage
  5. We’re Texas, you should be
  6. B.J. Foster with the INT
  7. From the mean streets of Four Points, FIGHT!!!!!!
  8. The way it was done before NIL…….
  9. I must have missed the part in my post where I drew any definitive conclusions of what Quinn Ewers will and will not end up being. Thought I left the door open for a number of possible outcomes. If anything, my post was asking for patience.
  10. Or perhaps it's speculating on a scenario that you're not ready to accept. If you read the post closely, which I know is asking a lot of the Twitter era 44-character short-attention span age that the internet has so very unfortunately arrived at, it draws no conclusions on what Quinn Ewers will or will not be and leaves the door wide open for all possibilities.
  11. So the #1 recruit, aka “highest graded QB in the history of recruiting rankings”, Quinn Ewers, was unable to win the starting job at Ohio State, transfers, and now “rumors” are starting to leak that he might be on the verge of losing QB competition at Texas to a QB that was benched the season prior (as a freshman himself to be fair). While it’s always possible such a player blooms when finally actually put into a game since we haven’t really seen this yet other than a pair of handoff snaps in garbage time at Ohio State, we’re starting to see a pattern established at two schools and under two different coaching staffs. So now everyone on this board is struggling to make sense of it all from the outside based on leaks and glimpses of what might be going on inside the program’s inner circle. I would offer 2 things to consider as you attempt to make sense of it all: (1) How many highly-graded recruiting prospects have passed through The 40 Acres in the post-McCoy era that didn’t live up to the hype?, and (2) How many freshman QB’s did the program give up on, bench, etc that eventually transferred and found success elsewhere, even eventually being drafted into the pros? I want to believe that <Insert 5-Star recruit here> offers the hope of immediately changing the decade-plus narrative of mediocrity around here just as much as the next guy, but there is a history here worth analyzing that would suggest instant gratification and immediate great expectations might be part of the problem.
  12. Sounds like we’re punting the Alabama game so as not to soil Ewers’ confidence early by allowing a Card to be the sacrificial lamb. Also keeps Card from transferring. Of course the flip side of that statement is if you thought Maalik Murphy had shown enough, maybe you wouldn’t care about Card transferring, but you’d still be concerned about sending Ewers out there against Bama for his 1st or 2nd college game action
  13. Perhaps there’s something wrong with me. Perhaps this is a cry for help. But I felt this needed a bump into prime time…..
  14. God gave us 4 downs for a reason
  15. That was my freshman year
  16. For you youngins’ who weren’t around for the Simms-Applewhite debacle, pay close attention to this thread, take notes, and prepare for the looming Manning-Ewers wars of 23’
  17. I don’t know, but it kind…..of feels like……realignment talk is indeed “going away”…..a little bit, for now….
  18. Clearly he needed to change his name to Hunter the Punter….
  19. I can see Sark formulating the plan now. Start Card to keep him from transferring. Card lights up a pushover ULM squad game 1, then shits the bed against Bama……enter Super Quinn without the potential confidence-squelching Quinn might incur facing Bama in his 1st or 2nd start.
  20. All gas, no breaks….
  21. Two tears in a bucket……
