How is Daniel Cruz looking?

Ricky on offense, DJ on defense.

DJ all the way. Changed our defense’s trajectory in the early 00’s.

Tough choice. All were good, DJ was great, Applewhite is under appreciated, and Ehlinger was fun to watch.

Well, sure, in retrospect. From a fans perspective, there are some limiting factors regarding our knowledge. NIL. They had a good grasp on the two deep. So how much cash do you have for that extra guy? It’d also seem a guy like Agbo is a type you could get. Was he flat out told there’s no room or did he not like the options? The past two years we’ve played basically six guys until injuries hit. We’re not willingly reaching into our depth. Outside of QB, we use backups in all places but Oline. We’ve largely operated with 7 guys the past two years. Similar for 3 and 4 years ago. The 3rd Tackle, the 3rd Guard are likely to operate either on the right or left side. In the 4 years, we haven’t gone more than 8 deep to speak of. I’d wager this staff has had few years in which they go deeper and rarely hit that 11th guy. If you’re a transfer and aren’t one of the top 3, you aren’t getting much playing time. If you’re an upperclassman and sitting down the depth chart, you will struggle to ever see the field in future years particularly if we have younger guys in front of you. If you can’t offer playing time or presumably cash, what are you offering to incentivize a guy to provide depth? And you haven’t gotten to the discussion point that your freshman lineman that you believe are the future are slowed from a development standpoint because their reps are more limited. Options are going to be limited. Resources and opportunities limited. And it may impact your roster in a negative sense for guys you believe have a better future. The depth people desire probably hasn’t existed since scholarships became limited.

Blocking someone is your friend. Done.

1. Get pressure on the QB so he doesn’t have time to process what is going on. 2. The first time the ball is thrown to Smith you hit him so hard that his soul leaves the field.

I think Tate can, unsure if Inniss can

Are you kidding?

That may be true but he's still the most annoying, arrogant and for sure not as clever a poster on these boards as he thinks he is.

It’s the same argument people make about getting a top seed in the NFL - rest vs rust. I think last year was an anomaly and Texas gets to the national title game last season if they had beaten Georgia in the SEC championship. The extra week of rest would’ve helped them more than playing an extra postseason game. Being on the other side of the bracket means they would’ve faced Notre Dame, then Penn State, and instead of Ohio State in the Final Four, you get them in the national championship game.

I consistently forget Missouri is in the SEC. Doubt I’m the only one.

I’m a diehard Cleveland Browns fan as well. It’s 100% correct.

Take the loss pvssy!

🦆🦆🦆

Key cog in the Mack turnaround.

DJ baby. Best I’ve seen at his position

Baker was an ok scrambler.

Austin tour show tonight! Gotta go DJ but Applewhite was the first QB I watched as a fan. Wish I still had my burnt orange shirt with the white apple. Slick design

Sure maybe. I think Sark is the playcaller, but Flood definitely runs things when it comes to outside of playcalling. It's impossible for Sark to run the team as the HC and be the OC at the same time. I'm not sure it's just a title for pay purposes. But if it is, then I'm happy to be wrong on that.

DJ for sure! Although Applewhite often gets overlooked when we look back at quarterbacks.

There was a lot of that yesterday.

All I see when I see this thread
