It’s been said here and other sites

[Andrew Scott]

Dan Neil had a piece on another site and just layed it out perfectly. Texas insistence on “large humans” has been mostly a failure. I realize Dan was undersized and nasty and that is exactly who he says are the type of players Texas needs to pivot to at least at center and guard. 
 

He says it won’t get fixed this year and the scheme they ran vs OU should be the gameplan in every game and was incredulous why they didn’t use it vs UK. 
 

I realize it’s been said in so many words on here and elsewhere but Dan knows ball and lived it.

Tony Hills said the same thing.

Which is why Turntine will be a far better player than Ojo.

The players we have are biproducts of the culture they’re in with regards to our offensive players.

Could've sworn I saw a poster on here yesterday say Tony isn't "qualified" to criticize.

Dan Neal wouldn’t be a started in today’s football.

Definitely. I’m not sure if it is a big human or not thing as much as a fit within the scheme and culture problem. Brooks is massive and could be a great player for us. Agree Turntine is the gem of the OL class this year but if we had gotten a Cantwell, a massive human, I don’t think it would be a mistake.

You love big humans so long as they’re athletic. You can’t be a big human and not athletic. Nastiness I believe is something that can be coached into and out of players. That ability to coach into and out of is 90% on the coaching staff and 10% on the player. Yay, made up statistics but the overall point is that if you coach a rough hard nose program that will be the results you get and the players who don’t buy into it will weed themselves out(you’re hoping that it’s the smaller portion of your recruits).
