So does Muschamp lead this recruitment with everything going on with Nansen?

Oof! They better hope whatever it is he’s back in three weeks

Rumors are Venables had him playing some fullback when he was injured - that’ll piss off some fans.

Also @Jeff Howe this is my application thesis for football theory university!

That's good stuff

Injuries suck regardless of the team.

Just wait for Tech to implode as season goes on 👍 hopefully BYU can take them out this year

Uh oh!

Hate that for anybody. Wish him the best!

Oh damn

Calling him a bust is crazy talk

Has Muschamp been a better DC than Sark has been an OC. According to Sark they are both head coaches on different sides of the ball. No knock but the offense has traditionally started slow under Sarkisian and definitely get better as the year goes along. Additional thought is as long as Texas can pound the rock and wear out defenses and force an additional player in the box both sides of the ball will flourish. Sark just has to get away from the finesse style offense and force the issue.

Arch started slow last year. I think missing spring practice set Arch back a little bit. He is also a classic gunslinger and he was way off against UTSA. Arch sometimes raises and lowers his play to the level of competition. He is a winner though and improved bynleaps and bounds last year. One game at a time.

Jordan Whittington was inactive for the Rams tonight.

Yep.

You have to trust Cooper from a ball security standpoint to go this route. Regardless, excited by what Cooper brings.

What?!?! Let’s pump the breaks here he had a bad game and is 15-3 as a starter at Texas. How quickly we forget all the years between Colt and Sam and Sam and Quinn.

That's a great thought. Utilize Smothers' and Brown's twitchiness in the first three quarters then deploy Cooper, M Terry, and Simon in the fourth. Ideally Texas has a lead and they're trying to have a long scoring drive to milk the clock and ice the game (2023 @ Alabama, 2024 v Kentucky, etc.)

Gerry was right. But UT didn’t have the will.

Marion Barber III was a monster and I still have his jersey in my closet

Great point Gerry!

First, it was great to see Derek Cooper in action Saturday night. But I got to thinking about ways to manage all 3 of the primary RB touches as Cooper gets implemented into the offense, and a potential idea crossed my mind. If you used to watch the Dallas Cowboys back when they had Marion Barber at RB, you might remember how they used to deploy him in games specifically in the 4th quarter. And it was a real difference maker watching him come in on fresh legs against a team that had already defended 50plus plays. What about Hollywood and Raleek continuing to share load as they have been the first 3 quarters, and then deploying Cooper in the 4th with fresh legs? Just a fun thought! Yes, we have other offensive items we need to focus on. This was really more a fun thought for those who remember Marion the Barbarian!

Maybe he just likes dust storms.
