Whoever said that about John (CJ) Midteer does not know ball

I get developing a skill set. The more he does that, the better off he’ll be in the NFL. But on critical downs, I want him running toward the football, not away from it.

It says bold moves.

Oct. 2, 1993 Texas 55, Rice 38 Bert Emanuel was the quarterback for Rice. Some guy named Anthony Holmes ran for two touchdowns for the Longhorns (I wonder whatever happened to him?). That day was all I needed to understand where my allegiances resided when it came to college football in the state of Texas. Whatever doubt was left, Stonie Clark erased it on the goal line against OU the next season.

"Solid" QB in the league? Interesting....

Oh wow lol. Don't remember honestly. Maybe a Days Inn? I wanna say we went to a powwow that weekend.

Which hotel? I'm from Llano

My first memory was really Ricky Williams in '98 and even that feels fuzzy, which makes me sad. Disappointed in my parents for not starting me on it sooner. My most vivid first Texas memory was watching Texas/Stanford in 1999 in a Llano hotel. Don't remember why we were in Llano but I just remember that being the game on lol.

I’d like to know what the “bad moves” are. If they’re talking bad portal moves, I don’t think I see any.

Great memory! Jamaal Charles ran wild in that game.

Texas has had guys recently like Trey Faltine and Tanner Witt who could’ve done it, but I can’t see anybody doing both at the level Brooks did. Guys are too specialized at a young age to pick one or the other that guys talented enough to do it don’t develop the skills like they should, and the universal DH in MLB has killed off the need for pitchers to hit.

Been here since Feb 2024, but first memory is my first game to attend against Rice in 2005 at 5 years old

Welcome! Tell us where you're from and your first Texas football memory. (existing OTF members welcome to reply too)

I couldn’t believe that number when I heard it

I’m sure they won’t drop him in coverage as much and will save that for big games to catch offenses off guard. Breaking tendency as Rod Babers puts it.

Not really.

Can't stand the Thunder, but they aren't as obnoxious as Mavs fans. Cuban initiated the transformation of Mavs fans into whining babies, which I call the "Techification" of the Mavs. Most unlikeable pro sports team next to the Eagles.

The guy gotta be pinching himself that he was able to step into this new life coming from Wake Forest.

Jermaine Bishop Jr. ran so fast he bypassed the shutter speed

I have never agreed with you more.

I agree the Spurs are luckier than the Pats. CJ is young.

Great dance team there! 🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

Finding a generational QB in the 6th round vs somehow winning the lottery sweepstakes on David Robinson, Duncan, and Wemby (plus getting Harper). Idk about that
