  2. Why does Mel Kiper still have a job? ESPN fucked up choosing him over McShay
  3. He was still running pro style offense, they just let him use his legs when he wanted. They didn't design an offense or tailor an offense to his skills.
  4. If I'm not mistaken that 48 hours is workdays and does not include weekends.
  5. But are they black black?
  6. This, NFL then tried to force square pegs into round holes with QBs. There was no offensive creativity.
  7. x-posting Blake Munroe As the Longhorns gear up to host a red hot Texas A&M team this weekend, I checked with a couple of sources to see where things stand as of Friday morning. First, let's start with some really good news. I'm told that all signs are pointing to freshman Jonah Williams playing against the Aggies this weekend. "Good chance he plays, but we will be careful," said a team source. That's phenomenal, as Williams leads the team in batting average (albeit a small sample size compared to the rest), as he is .462 at the plate in 13 ABs. --- Yesterday I reported the weekend lineup on the mound would look like this: Friday - Ruger Riojas Saturday - Luke Harrison Sunday - Jason Flores As of Friday morning, that has NOT changed. Flores is still expected to be the Sunday starter. Will that be the same going forward? It's too early to tell. --- Finally, in case you missed it, Jared Spencer is now out for the year. He will undergo surgery on his shoulder next week.

  9. Bobby Burton The Big 12, the ACC and others can bellyache all they want about the SEC and Big 10 pushing them around at the negotiating table when it comes to number of playoff spots and other aspects of the future of college football. But last night was a prime example of exactly why the two premier conferences feel justified in doing so. The SEC finished with 15 picks in the first round of the NFL draft. The Big 10 had 11. That’s 26 of 32 in the first round. The Big 12 and ACC had just 2 each. Hell, Texas alone, with three first-round picks, had more than those two entire conferences. Ohio State, Georgia and Michigan did, too. The message to recruits is clear. If you want to play big-time college football on a weekly basis, you need to be in either the SEC or the Big 10. Otherwise, you’re just not playing the same category of competition weekly (or, more appropriately, “weakly” in the case of the Big 12 and ACC). ** There were six native Texans selected in the first round of the draft. The Longhorns were three of those. No other Texas team produced a Texas native first-rounder. Cam Ward from West Columbia, Ashton Jeanty from Frisco and Donovan Jackson from Houston were the other Texas natives who were selected in the first round. If you’re looking at the state as a whole from a production standpoint, that’s four from Greater Houston, one from DFW and one from Cen-Tex. DFW typically holds that edge so it was a big year for Houston. ** Knowing what he went through in high school dealing with his mom’s health issues, knowing how he comported himself in college from his very first week on campus where he treated every day like he was on a mission, I couldn’t help but be excited and simulataneously amazed at the path of Kelvin Banks to become the 9th overall pick of the Saints. Way to go, Kelvin! ** Jahdae Barron held a PARTY last night [all caps used for emphasis!]. A lot of current Longhorns and even their families were invited and attended. At least 200+ folks were there to celebrate Jahdae going to the Denver Broncos. ** Matthew Golden, meanwhile, was feted in style. Golden was picked by the Packers, who hosted the NFL draft. That had to be a cool experience for Golden, who received a warm reception when his selection was announced.
  10. Take me back to the days when we had 15 WR's on scholarship!
  11. son of a bitch, I thought this was the baseball thread!
  12. He didn’t recruit Ward. Eric Morris recruited him
  13. Yeah it’s pretty bad.
  14. Mizzou guy was taken to be a RT so it makes sense.
  15. Huh
  16. I’d imagine they make another trade together later? Seems odd.
  17. Did they just kick the guy in the wheel chair out of the picture?
  18. 😂🤣
  19. lol get community noted
  20. LETS GO!
  21. Lance Jackson throws mid 90s
  22. The only 3 trade back teams are Buffalo, KC, and Philly. Every other team seems like they need to draft best available players
