  1. I said before the season started his numbers were built on a crappy WAC schedule and he did nothing against a good defense. And I knew the Hypsman crap was BS. But I have to disagree about the surgery not affecting him. I've had my share of broken bones and I know for a fact your control is not back in 17 days. Painkillers may take away the pain but they can't give you back all the feeling and control. When I broke my scapula it didn't even start hurting until 3 hours later and it's a good thing my mother insisted I go to the hospital because the x-ray showed a break which shocked me. Then it started hurting like hell and woulda gone crazy without the codeine they gave me. That could explain why it didn't affect him at Auburn. Breaks can be weird things. Mateer had screws put in his finger. There's just no way it didn't have some affect only 17 days afterward.
  2. Texas had a great run so maybe a couple of 4*'s that are really 3 at best is probably expected. Certainly Roschon, Brooks and Wisner exceeded expectations and there should've been a special 6* for Bijan. But I have to say none of Baxter, Gibson, Clark looked like difference makers when I watched their video.
  3. If Stroh is going to run the ball he won't get 2 ft before he's tackled.
  4. That's the greatest mystery of the season so far, but I think it was a combination of the different schemes used and Brooks making improvement. But I warned FL has talent and it won't be Billy's clown show when they play Texas.
  5. The RB would be tackled before Stroh got to the LOS. Maybe Kanu could become a Hero by playing the Roy Miller role and actually resolving the the short yardage issues.
  6. Only if it's a true difference maker like Hardy, but not a Gibson level of talent. That would just be another scholarship waste just like Johnson at DT. And Baxter needs to take another RS and get healed. 2 games on, 2 games off provides no value to the team. OTOH, now with 2 gone, 2 injuries like last year it's going to be going from a loaded RB room to paper thin. Keep Baxter out until he's a necessity.
  7. The pain may not have been a factor, but I have no doubt it affected his ability to control the ball. Reality is he shouldn't been playing and dumb to risk a career to just to beat Texas and it bit them in the ass. Hawkins couldn't have been worse and probably would've been better.
  8. Doesn't seem to matter if he has an M1:M68A1 he's not very good at using it. NCAA College Football FBS current individual Stats | NCAA.com
  9. Hi correlation with IQ, why is that not surprising? Average IQ by State 2025
  10. He better not be analyzing anything at Texas other than what toilet paper to put in the visitors locker room.
  11. He's playing at a position that's loaded. I'd also like to see more of Lance Jackson, but who gets fewer plays? Too bad he can't play OL.
  12. No SEC road game is easy I don't care who it is. Kentucky wants to beat Texas more than they want to have sex with their cousins. This game could be like the Vandy game last year.
  13. Why do I have to be so serious about it?? I enjoyed it a lot more and saw just as much relaxed on the couch with a beer in my hand.
  14. Has anyone mentioned Portillo's or Beck's Prime? Those suck, as well as most chains. Chart House was once very good, then Tillman bought it. Most of the Pappas are still pretty good, but yes pricey. Razoos is like Olive Garden Cajun, not surprising they went bankrupt.
  15. WTF do you mean our OL has problems holding? That's absurd, our OL has no problem at all holding, but they have huge problems trying to hide it from the refs.
  16. I think Ella is pretty, but we have a nice looking team. They are certainly a lot better than the zit face girls from TN. I kept wondering last night if there's a Clearasil shortage in Knoxville or something. Maybe one of you substitution experts can tell me why Binney has to come in? TN went on a run every time she came in, and JS your stats tell the story. Binney got the most play in sets 2&4. No Binney in 5. Binney can't terminate or set the middles the way Ella does. And Ella often fools me with where she's going with the ball. Binney never does.
  17. Well, I may be wrong, but I do watch a whole lot of other QB's on Saturday and see a whole lot of them do the same things. Things that don't receive near the same scrutiny because they aren't QB at The University of Texas. For a So. in his 7th start and absolutely no help, running for his life at a rate not ever seen by UT QB before, I just don't think he was THAT BAD. And I don't think #39 in the country is THAT BAD for a So. with what he's going through. He's actually higher than that gooner QB who's supposed the be the Hypsman favorite. Yes, I know that's a joke, but we was running #1 on a lot of lists before the injury. https://www.ncaa.com/stats/football/fbs/current/individual/8
  18. A quality college FB team STARTS with OL recruiting, yet it's the one position Sark and Flood have recruited the worst. On top of that, they didn't fill in a single fucking NFL drafted player with an experienced player from the portal.
  19. And he was being pretty fing cocky 2 weeks ago after beating up on a glorified HS.
  20. Too bad Texas doesn't get USC and Auburn instead of GA and agroid. At least the extra bowl game practice would go a long way in development for next year.
  21. I think that's a lot of the problem. That's going to be a boom or bust offense and it may put up a lot of points against SHSU, but more bust than boom against a good defense. I'd rather have a Colt who methodically moves the ball down the field and demoralizes the defense. But that's more due to Sark's play calling than the QB. He wants to do what he did at bama when he had All Americans at WR, RB and OL. It's flat out retarded to think this Texas team can do the things that Bama team did.
  22. Whaddaya mean?? Tom Herman used to give the players lots of kisses.
  23. No worries, that record will be broken again this Saturday. Of course half of them may be against Caldwell after Arch is carted off the field. Can someone tell me just what QB could be successful behind this OL with a coach calling nothing but long pass plays??
  24. Look at the bright side, at least we aren't Penn State.🤣
