  1. Average play from the edge would be a major improvement for us.
  2. I was coming here to say the same exact thing. He was a four star top 150 kid and can’t start at Sam?
  3. Nebraska should sign up for the Tom Herman - Hudson Card combo deal. I think Herman’s style would fit in Nebraska and the Big 10, and he would love to give card a chance to shine since he told the world card had Aaron Rodgers ability.
  4. I really hope the rumors of what Nebraska paid Mathis are untrue. I’m watching every snap and so far I haven’t saw a difference maker at all. Also funny to see him standing up on the edge some plays when that supposedly is a big reason he didn’t want to go to Texas.
  5. Exactly. fuck him. And I see their ends dropping in coverage too.
  6. So nobody wants to talk about Our current starting safety missing the tackle before Brock arrived?
  7. The article mainly talks about how this may hurt the recruitment of the LB from Hawaii because Jake was very involved in that recruitment. Mike knows where Jake is going but wants to let him announce it himself.
  8. People on other sites are acting like the kid is a murderer. He took off a damn boot. Something most people on here have wanted to do. It’s a zero bail offense. He will pay for the boot and get a parking pass and this will be forgiven. FCB couldn’t wait to post the info and swear that it proves he was right to release that report last week.
  9. Just one play but good god Banks destroyed him.
  10. Odom was the guy I wanted at DC. I would have taken Carter for a year if it would have gotten us Odom. I think we had already hired or agreed to the secondary coaches thinking we had Muschamp tho, before we made the pivot to Odom.
  11. Big Cam is going to outplay his recruiting rankings. A redshirt would do wonders for him but I’m not sure he will get it. He is expecting to play enough this year to use his redshirt.
  12. You made a better choice than I did today. I watched the 2018 Big 12 championship today and been mad all damn day cause we blew that game and really was the better team.
  13. This! Shane showed up and was ready to ball. He struggled down the stretch after some injuries but he was never scared. Sam had some WTF moments as a freshman that concerned me, but at least he made most of those while trying to make a play. You would rather your young QB try to make plays and make mistake than for them to be scared out their mind and freeze. There were plays to be made in that Arkansas game. Some big shots that could/would have turned the tide in that game. Even in the Kansas game Card was just going through the motions. The type of QB training he has had is good for pros who have shown the dog and talent to make it to the next level. They have the basics down and those stupid ass drills are trainings for when things break down. Card hasn’t learned how to handle a pocket or to relax and move on to the second read.
  14. Texas canceled the open media window and the press time after practice at the very last minute. I’m hoping this is because somebody finally got upset about the BS articles and questions the texas beat reporters have been asking
  15. I still remember one year he lead the league in TD catches and dropped passes.
  16. Terrell Owens. he dropped a lot of passes on his way to a hall of fame career.
  17. I got 100 that he plays at least 8 games. I’m not willing to go super big money but I’ll definitely bet a round of cheap drinks.
  18. I don’t think he is terrible. I think he is overhyped and good at things outside of what his position asked for. Pairing him with Brock made it worse. I also agree that our defense didn’t help him at all. We looked ok until Jones went down. It went down hill after that. I hope he balls this year and gets drafted high. Curious to see if having better line play or moving him around let’s him flourish. I believe that Ford will be our best LB this year.
  19. Overshown is a great athlete. Not a good LB up to this point. He hasn’t shown he is good at LB things. He is good in space but attacking and fighting off/through blockers? Making the right reads and gap integrity? Not saying he can’t improve with his first fulL offseason, just up to now he makes the flash plays but not the consistency needed from a top flight LB. Luke knew where to be but he is just limited as an athlete so he can’t get there. I remember people being excited about Richardson transferring in, but never heard anything about him once he got here. Anybody know what happened? Was he a guy that should have stayed in a lower division?
  20. Bo is going to have to earn his salary and find a way to keep Sweat and Collins’ motor running. Those two with Murphy would change a lot of thoughts for this defense. Ford and Dorsey are upgrades at LB because we honestly had the worst LB in the Big 12. how old is Ojomo now?
  21. Everybody is bringing up bags but Hill is a special case. Yeah they dropped the bags but they also were pretty much the leader his whole recruitment so it was a place he was interested in before whatever bad he got offered to shut it down. He didn’t give Texas a chance to match offer cause truthfully that’s where he/his family always wanted to go. It’s some people on here who know the inside story with the family and confirm this, his family had doubts about the Texas defense based on what they saw last year. They worried about DLine play. Aggie were able to sell him on having nothing but five stars in front of him to keep him clean. Give the staff credit for getting back in the recruitment cause in the spring they were an after thought. Texas’ only chance was to keep the recruitment open for as long as possible to show some improvement in the DLIne that they told the family about. The Texas NIL pitch has been a game changer. It won’t win every recruitment but it has allowed us to get into some recruitments we would have never been able to in the past especially after the season we just had. If Texas was coming off an 9-3 season this class would be crazy but the truth is we are a 5-7 team until we show otherwise. Still looking like a great class with multiple 5 stars. After we win 9 this year the field will be even more tilted our way with the NIL doing it’s part.
  22. I’d say yes. Texas wins 9 games this year and it will be hard to fire your DC after a 4 game improvement. I also think GP doesn’t want to be the DC. He is enjoying the ability to be around the game but with no pressure. This year is about learning Offense from Sark as much as it is helping tie up the secondary to the front end for the defense. GP wants another head coaching job.
