Bobby talking about the interior OL at the timestamped video above.

 

Sounds like neither Gerry or Bobby think Conner/Hutson will hold off DJ Campbell or Neto.

If a fraction of this is true go ahead and plan your NYE trip. These dudes laying it on thick

The U/O is 162 by the end of the season. 

Hit the over!

 

 

 

Conner had a season-long average PFF grade of 66.5 pass blocking but a run blocking mark of 50.8

Hutson had a season long average run blocking grade of 53.4 and a pass blocking grade of 34.7

DJ Campbell, a five-star recruit in the 2022 class who earned an 83.1 pass-blocking grade on limited snaps last season. -- Obviously limited snaps, does anyone have his run blocking grade?

Jake Majors is entering his third season as the Longhorns’ starting center and was seventh among Power Five ones last year with an 81.9 pass-blocking grade. --- Does anyone have his run blocking grade as well? 

 

Who was it here that had the PFF sub?

I’m careful of what I post, simply because you would be surprised who lurks on these forums. But DJ Campbell is your starting RG. Hutson started camp with the ones out of respect that he was a returning starter, but it’s pretty known/expected that Campbell will start. That’s what the coaches want and are planning around. LG is where the true battle is. 

I sense Scott Freeman lurking behind every corner.

Whatever, we would have stopped him then like we stopped him all fucking night.  Lendale was the right call.  We just stopped him too.

Taking off the burnt orange glasses for a second, Reggie Bush had rushed for 82 yards with a 6.3 yard average and 95 receiving yards on top of that.  Not Heisman level numbers, but it's not like "we had stopped him all fucking night." 

Hindsight is always 20/20, and I'm not saying any other play call and personnel would've had a different result, but it seemed odd to to keep one of the fastest running backs in college on the sideline instead of (1) giving him the ball in space, or (2) at least using him as a decoy to open up some room for White in the middle.

Few nuggets from Dunlap on today's practice

- RB Jonathan Brooks was back at practice Monday, he had missed practice over the weekend with an illness, but he is fine and back at practice now.

- The biggest news was that DJ Campbell was the starting right guard on Monday. Cole Hutson was working with the twos. A big development in the fifth practice around one of the most anticipated position battles coming into fall camp.

- I asked one person if Isaiah Neyor was still working behind Johntay Cook and was told "(Neyor) actually ran some with the ones today." I didn't press about how exactly that worked and who was displaced in this arrangement, but it's clearly something to monitor. For anyone who was worried that he was looking like he was demoted to the third team at the end of last week, apparently there are ways he's getting involved with the first group, so those worries are at least a bit unfounded for now.

- I asked who was looking good among the edge rushers and was told it looks like J'Mond Tapp as the primary guy for now behind Ethan Burke. This person also said something that we'd kind of pointed out in practice reports, that some of the inside LBs were getting utilized more in a spot where they spin down to the line of scrimmage to rush, or where they will stunt. Jaylan Ford was actually mentioned as a guy to watch in this regard more so than we saw from him last year.

Good to hear Tapp's name. Talented kid that came in raw.

Dunlap:   "The biggest news was that DJ Campbell was the starting right guard on Monday. Cole Hutson was working with the twos. A big development in the fifth practice around one of the most anticipated position battles coming into fall camp."

----------------------------------------------

Went back to check OL injury histories

  • Right guard Cole Hutson suffered an ankle injury in the second half of Friday’s win over the Baylor Bears, head coach Steve Sarkisian said on Monday
  • IT said Cole Hutson recently had surgery to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder. He will likely be out for spring ball (Jan 2023)
  • Texas freshman offensive lineman Connor Robertson is recovering from postseason surgery on his left wrist (Jan2023).    Robertson is expected to recover in time for spring football

----------------------------------------------

Also forgot about Brooks Jan 2023 surgery

January:  "Brooks had hernia surgery earlier this month and is expected to return for some part of spring ball."

Wrong. It was 4th and 2, White was better all season and all night at getting a minimum of 2 yards. Bush would get stopped for no gain much more frequently. People love to look in hindsight and theorize that USC could have run formations or plays that didn't exist in 2005 and certainly not in their 2005 playbook. 

Bush was on the sideline because we would have paid exactly zero attention to him on that play. They had Jarrett out wide and we manned up Cedric Griffin on him with zero help. Same thing would have happened to Bush.

I clearly remember thinking, "We haven't stopped him all night; don't see that happening now."

And then we stopped him and stunned everyone.

Hopefully, we play close man on similar plays this year. I'm tired of playing loose coverage and seeing short completions for first downs.

Nothing to see here. If brooks is gonna get injured it’s gonna be later on with hitting and pads, or more likely, games.

- The biggest news was that DJ Campbell was the starting right guard on Monday. Cole Hutson was working with the twos. A big development in the fifth practice around one of the most anticipated position battles coming into fall camp.

Anything else would be a travesty. Isn’t he the highest rated OL we’ve signed in a long time? Above banks who looks like the best tackle in the country?

- I asked one person if Isaiah Neyor was still working behind Johntay Cook and was told "(Neyor) actually ran some with the ones today." I didn't press about how exactly that worked and who was displaced in this arrangement, but it's clearly something to monitor. For anyone who was worried that he was looking like he was demoted to the third team at the end of last week, apparently there are ways he's getting involved with the first group, so those worries are at least a bit unfounded for now.

Wrs run so much, I think we’ll see a lot of rotation this year since we are so deep. Starter won’t matter as much as who is playing at the end of tight games, if we have any…

- I asked who was looking good among the edge rushers and was told it looks like J'Mond Tapp as the primary guy for now behind Ethan Burke. This person also said something that we'd kind of pointed out in practice reports, that some of the inside LBs were getting utilized more in a spot where they spin down to the line of scrimmage to rush, or where they will stunt.

Anyone that watched the spring game saw Anthony hill jump off the tape with his athleticism…he will be like a mini micah parsons off the edge for us. Also, I think we might be better with collins as a big buck end hiding hill, being disruptive, and not being terrible at run defense than than Burke…sorrel sweat Murphy and collins sounds better than sorrel sweat Murphy and Burke anyway.

My $.02

I quit drinking the kool aid pre season reports years ago. But it’s good to hear we are going to the CFP this year.

You'd think as much time as these dudes spend on football and for how many years they've done it they would be better at it. Maybe it's just too difficult to get a feel in preseason for what these dudes can do when you don't know jack about what the dudes on the teams they're going to play are doing.

I mean, I don't want to belabor the point or anything, but sometimes you want to make a joke, you put in a search term into PH, and instead of a tab name that gives you what you wanted, you instead get "not found," because sadly, there are no porn videos or images on PornHub for that particular proclivity. (Sigh.) But the joy of the World Wide Weeb is that all that shit is stored locally, so you just pull up the developer tools and modify where needed.

Let's take this poor, innocent, unsuspecting website, for example.

before.thumb.png.e2baa25dbbde38bd7fe915f011526e26.png

 

Oh, dear. This does not represent our little brother university well at all. We'll start with the tab title. Note: I'm doing this in Firefox, but Chrome/Edge/etc can do this just as well.

 

deface-1.thumb.png.4d9cf6a44cf73de59ef9c1e6d319287f.png

 

Hmm, that's OK as a side joke, but it's cut off and hard to see.

 

deface-2.thumb.png.c554d8d3caa23970c4b3c8640dc9ea1f.png

 

There we go. Note how I'm using the search bar to skip through the content more easily. You can also hover the mouse over different bits and they'll get highlighted on the page above, as you can see. Now, let's get that poll question fixed up.

 

deface-3.thumb.png.edfb2fff0265c8a62fa0374fcc6d228d.png

 

OK! Now the joke is getting a little thin. I still feel like more can be done about the tab title, though.

 

deface-4.thumb.png.e9b161b5686bce1939f33d49b6ab1255.png

 

Once you get the knack for it, you can modify the whole thing. Menu bars, text... if you're good at CSS and JavaScript, you can even change the way the page works. (Fun way to skip the blockers on paid articles, BTW.)

A few more changes, and we end up with this lovely final product:

Huff was one of the guys who help stopped White at the line. Years later Huff said in the interview that USC f'ed up by not having Bush in the game with White because he would've been assigned to Bush and wouldn't have been in the pile to help stop White. Harris was probably the most important guy because he avoided his blocker and met White pad level. Kelson was pulling on White from the back. Maybe those two could've stopped White without Huff, but I'm glad USC had Bush out so we didn't have to find out.

It was good to hear a new perspective but probably not worth the time. Ewers needs to improve and they all think that he will improve. They like Sark's offense and think that he finally has guys who can execute it. We will be more SEC ready than OU. KSU and TCU will be good this year.

And one fewer blocker would have been there.

Never go full retard. Handing it to White was a good call. Bush on the sideline was moronic.

Didn't realize Luginbill is a former QB.  The detailed discussion on Ewers was great...

Luginbill did a quick analysis of the B12, but forgot about discussing blOU and baylor.   He likes tcu and k-state, but is not sold on tech yet because their QB hasn't stayed healthy in past years.

He did mention that Texas lost a lot at RB so it will be interesting to watch that this year.

Great video!!!

Exactly. You put your Heisman winner on the field on a crucial 4th down in the national championship game. Fuck all that other noise. 

Also, who cares? USC blinked. Texas didn't. Texas won. The fact that USC made a dumb decision doesn't invalidate our NC.
