  1. Do children under 2 need a ticket for games?
  2. Harambe died for their sins 🙏
  3. This guy must have hated when he saw the forward pass introduced. You don’t win because that is a self sack. You pointing out he should have stepped up sooner is why that is graded a self sack.
  4. @Steamboat1874 Here is a quiz for you....watch this clip and tell us if you think this is a sack given up by Kelvin Banks or self sack by Quinn Ewers https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxXGfmchPbI_tH1QcIA0qqUVYPd1eq2gz-?si=kqiEAWWBmljeWMoQ
  5. That scenario is not considered a self sack lmao. You clearly don't even understand. That would be considered a self sack. Shedeur is super bad at this and a lot of the dings that Quinn has are the same that Shedeur has except Shedeur has more escapability and pocket awareness.
  6. They are not. It shows the QB makes at best no decision or at worse bad decisions.
  7. He was not. Because the analytics and scouts say he doesn’t handle pressure well and once his first read goes away he doesn’t perform well. Being able to react to pressure and adjust the reads is part of excelling at that position and being a good QB.
  8. Those were all nfl scout opinions, not media. Those opinions were based on Quinn’s film and body of work which is “objective material” they used to formulate the analysis. So Sanders and Quinn’s draft positions are further proven to be accurate by their analysis. Is what it is, neither of those QBs are “good”
  9. Self sacks have been recorded since at least mid 2000s
  10. Glad you finally agree that Quinn wasn’t the good and better QB play wins national titles. It took a long time to get you here and some finessing of words but welcome to the club.
  11. Quinn had a better OL than Colt had, except Colt wasn't a statue and could make plays with his legs to account for breakdowns. It's not even a new metric you dumb mother fucker. If a QB holds the ball too long the credit doesn't get given to the OL. That is on the QB not getting the ball out or throwing away.
  12. That the new hotel on the corner? Looks nice! Also is Alamo Springs Cafe back open? Thought I saw where they closed but with plans to reopen.
  13. It's just so stupid that when they're not hitting and up by 20 points they just keep doing it. Even going 40% for 2 points still gets them a win...also gives more chances to get to the free throw line. It's just insanely shitty basketball.
  14. There was some talk about it in the T&F thread on the "Texas Sports" subforum but not much information. I assume it has to do with poor performance in relays?
  15. And where do you think Bobby got that information from? He wouldn't say it multiple times and put it out there multiple times if it didn't come from them. Why would CDC or Sark want to further split the revenue with 20 extra players when you can better use that money to properly stack a 85 man roster.
  16. NFL agrees with derka and myself. Get fucked and you of all people literally blame everyone else but Quinn no matter what.
  17. This is a nice little article from CJ It has become a trend each year to wonder around this time of the year, when the Texas class will begin to heat up. Recruiting is fun, but there are spurts throughout the year where it certainly feels like you are crawling through a school zone in terms of excitement and momentum. The Texas staff is no stranger to that over the last four cycles as well. The monotonous day to day of the winter and spring seasons leads to some fireworks at the turn of July seemingly every year. It has become the blueprint for recruiting classes that have ended in the top five in each of the previous four cycles. As the official visit circus of June inches closer, I wanted to go cycle by cycle to see two things – Where Texas sat from a commitment perspective at this point in the cycle and where they ended up after, let's say July 31. *** 2022 Class Final Ranking: 5th Total Commitments: 28 Commitments at May 8: 5 RB Jaydon Blue, QB Maalik Murphy and DB BJ Allen Jr. all committed in February of 2021 with DL Kris Ross and Zac Swanson joining the class ahead of the month of June. Commitments at July 31: 11 The class size doubled with a pair of specialists, then Cole Hutson and Connor Robertson both committing on July 2. LB Derrick Brown and DB Austin Jordan both made their decisions prior to the end of July. The 2022 class is the one exception to the rule with 11 of the 28 commitments making announcements after Thanksgiving. Texas finishes strong, but this is the heaviest amount of movement we have seen in the back end of the cycle. *** 2023 Class Final Ranking: 3rd Total Commitments: 25 Commitments at May 8: 5 Only LB S'Maje Burrell, RB Tre Wisner, and WR Ryan Niblett had made decisions prior to the month of May. Texas did have verbal pledges from DB Jamel Johnson (TCU) and EDGE Dylan Spencer (Texas Tech) at the time, though neither made it through the conclusion of the cycle. Commitments at July 31: 17 The news of Arch Manning committing on June 23, 2022 ignited quite the run for the Longhorns. In the week after Arch's commitment, Texas had gained eight verbal pledges and by the end of the July, 70% of the players that had signed with Texas were in the fold. *** 2024 Class Final Ranking: 5th Total Commitments: 22 Commitments at May 8: 3 Texas only had three commitments at the time entering June. QB Trey Owens, ATH Hunter Modden (decommitted) and P Michael Kern made up the entire class at the time. Commitments at July 31: 15 Six commitments to wrap up the month of June, then three verbal pledges on July 1st – WR Parker Livingstone, DL Alex January and DB Jordon Johnson-Rubell. One verbal pledge in July did not sign, that would be ATH Aeryn Hampton. Big wins in the OV month of June included Santana Wilson, Christian Clark and Jerrick Gibson. *** 2025 Class Final Ranking: 1st Total Commitments: 25 Commitments at May 8: 4 Commits in the class included QB KJ Lacey, TE Emaree Winston, EDGE Lance Jackson, RB Rickey Stewart and LB Bo Barnes. Plus, the eventual decommitment DL Brandon Brown. Commitments at June 31: 16 Brown had decommitted by the end of July, but Texas was rolling with 16 verbal pledges in the class at the time the calendar flipped to August. The Coleman triplets and James Simon committed at the end of May, Texas won out for John Mills and Caleb Chester in June, then the Longhorns went on a run in July with Kade Phillips, Jonathan Cunningham, Nick Townsend and Josiah Sharm flipping from Oregon. *** 2026 Class Which leads us to where we are currently in the class of 2026. Final Ranking: TBD Total Commitments: TBD Commitments at May 8: 5 Texas sits with commitments from QB Dia Bell, WR Chris Stewart, OL Nicolas Robertson, OL Max Wright and LS Trott O'Neal. You can expect the next 60 days to be action packed with commitments with the Longhorns currently expecting 46 official visitors on campus in the month of June. Buckle up, should be an eventful summer once again.
  18. Bobby has said Texas will stay at 85 scholarship players and continue walk on program once roster limits expand so that Texas is able to distribute more revenue to their scholarship players.
  19. Bobby Burton News broke late last night that President Trump would name former Alabama coach Nick Saban and Texas Tech mega-booster Cody Campbell as co-chairs of a federal commission on college sports. This news came on the heels of the NCAA replying to objections from the judge in the House Settlement surrounding grandfathering scholarships for former players who would have been otherwise cut. Frankly, it’s hard to keep up with all the ins and outs of what is going on in college sports these days off the field. Yet the best thing about sports - or at least one of the best - is that the games are decided on the field of play, not in a courtroom, not in chambers of congress or anywhere else. This charade of legal and federal involvement continues to pick away at the enjoyment of the game itself. The game needs a solution. I’m not sure anyone has proposed one yet that suits all sides fairly. ** The problem I have with the House Settlement and appointing Saban and Campbell to a commission is very simple. The plaintiffs in the House Case are supposed to be a voice for the players. Well, they’re actually the voice for former players, not current ones. And they’re for former college athletes in all sports, not just the subset of the group that makes money (football and basketball customarily) for their respective universities. As for the federal commission, it’s the same thing. Where is the representation for the athletes? Perhaps the work product of Saban and Campbell may involve them, but from Saban’s remarks alone, it’s clear he doesn’t favor the current player-friendly environment. Again, I think college sports, from a structural standpoint, is an absolute mess. We need leadership. We need solutions. We don’t need to keep reshuffling the deck chairs of the Titanic. In the interim, I’ll be here, just like many of you. We enjoy the game of college football too much. But, for the sake of all that is right in this world, can someone who sees both sides please stand up and deliver a solution that is sound and something we can move forward with for at least a couple of decades?
  20. I truly don't get them continuing to just throw up 3 point shots with 20 point leads. Just breathtakingly stupid offensive basketball with the lead.
  21. Gerry Hamilton Texas OV List: Another 4-star++ added The Texas Longhorns continue to add official visitor to the list for June. The latest additions are from the Sunshine State, in 4-star++ EDGE Trenton Henderson (Pensacola/Catholic) and 4-star++ DL James Johnson (Miami/Northwestern). OTF expects at least five more prospects to be added to the list in the next week to ten days. The updated OV list:
