In complete fairness, he's not completely wrong or right. Arch is definitely not progressing fast enough through check downs and releasing the ball earlier. I'm sure he understands this and doesn't love the struggles. That said, Arch is also not solely to blame for the fiasco we are witnessing. Our line play on both sides of the ball is very underwhelming thus far. Hard to work your reads when you're running for your life. Sark needs to adjust the offense and make it similar to early QE. QE did some damage through the air and Arch has a better scrambling ability to capitalize on space given. My hope is we'll see more short-intermediate shots on Saturday.

Sometimes people can’t accept the truth on here. The whole team didn’t play well Saturday. Arch included. I’d bet he’d tell you that too.

He’s not seeing the field well. He is missing wide open WRs in addition to not having time to throw at times.

Please tell me he's gone

I am going to miss Hashtag.com

Thank you Bobby. I subscribed for your team’s opinions and recruiting news, not other subscribers who are aspiring coaches or pundits. While I appreciate the views of alot of other members, I don’t enjoy the personal attacks and superior attitudes. Hook Em!

Besides you have the best content and personalities over the others

Thank you Bobby! Glad you’re doing this because it’s the reason I left InsideTexas.com 3 years ago to follow you and the guys! Tired of all that crap. 🤘

OU sucks

I don't get this. Arch is much better at avoiding sacks than most. He misses throws. He makes throws. Defense screwed us against Florida. What do you want?

Appreciate this. Thank you and understood.

Wear and tear brotha. And to be clear I don't think you're wrong in your assessment, I just think an argument could be made both ways and we don't have a large enough sample size with the expanded CFP to know what the right approach is.

Cj Baxters injury occurred after a whistle and had nothing to do with physicality. Brooks injury occurred during a game and was a freak injury

Thank you Bobby! I had never “ignored” a poster until recently and a couple posters were lessening the experience/environment.

Thanks Bobby!

Thanks. I have already put several on my ignore list and I don't like doing that.

I agree wholly, hope those members bring the temperature down!

We all love it here because from the beginning it’s just been a bunch of folks who want to talk about Texas sports without any drama or conflict. That’s what makes this place special (along with the best-in-the-business content). I think 99% of users fully support this message and your board moderation policies, Bobby. Keep up the amazing work!

You know you are doing well with the business when the potatoes start to join. Love this board, Bobby

He's playing like a QB that has no confidence in his OL + he just doesn't see the field + he can't read defenses at a level that a 3rd year QB should be able to read. Murray's video was pretty much spot on. The OL played horrible, but Arch had plenty of chances to put more than 21 points on the board. This is just going to be a frustrating season because Arch needs to be playing a much higher level to make up for the OL because they can't guarantee consistent protection or a running game to take pressure off.

Bad for sports. Will open more cans of worms.

You said our problem isn't passion or toughness, then called out DJ Campbell. I would venture that having passion and toughness would remedy what you talked about. If you're passionate about your play, like Tony talked about, you'd be doing the little things throughout the week to ensure you play at an optimal level on Saturday. If you're passionate on Saturdays, that becomes infectious and should cause your teammates to look within and ask if they want to match your passion, or get out of the way. And toughness? You either got it or you don't. Coach Ship brings up Kasey Studdard all the time as an example of toughness. I don't mean this in a condescending way, but if you've never played in the trenches before, it really is a fight every play, and you better have the will to bring it, or get out of the way.

What if the physicality level of practices last year contributed to CJ Baxter's injury? What if it contributed to Jonathan Brooks' injury the year before? What if there was a philosophical shift sooner to reduce the wear and tear on the players and both of those guys were available for the CFP runs? What if having them healthy gave us the pieces we needed to make it to and possibly win a championship? Two sides to every coin. Had their been more injuries in spring camp I have a feeling you'd be making the counterargument now. Long season ahead and there have been highs and lows the last two seasons, both of which were a success.
