  1. Not sure if any. Perhaps some guys in South Dallas in particular.
  2. He doesn’t have the size.
  3. - Red zone. - Taking more advantage of the weakness of an opponent.
  4. Rod really likes Muhammad’s sense for the ball.
  5. Very interesting. Can not confirm at this time.
  6. Would be an interesting and welcomed return for the Longhorns — Chris Gilbert. https://footballscoop.com/news/sources-texas-hiring-fbs-assistant-former-dallas-area-prep-coach-as-assistant-g-m

  8. Love Crown and Anchor!
  9. I’m not going to go further on this. I know what I’ve been told. Furthermore, what I’ve been told is in line with why Cordova did not get more severely punished. Again, he was wrong. Very wrong. But I am told authorities did not pursue this further for a reason and it had zero to do with his ability as a football player. (To be clear, I did not get this from anyone at UT.)
  10. No one’s absolving him of wrongdoing. I’m certainly not. He had intent and then he also had intent to change course. Yes, it could have been worse. It wasn’t though. The school and authorities looked into this and decided it did not bear criminal charges.
  11. Some believe the mother of the player is on a crusade with this. My wife probably would be too if it were our son. However, it is my understanding that Cordova and others cleaned out the peanuts immediately following being told that the player could actually die from an interaction and also before the player actually put anything on. However, the player still got hives afterward because of the residue. Still, the player did not have a major reaction. He got hives. The player who got hives then played in a football game later that night. His parents didn’t even know it had happened until several days later. Folks at Lake Travis and officers looked into this and deemed two things: 1) they suspended Cordova for 2-3 games and 2) did not pursue further charges after interviewing all involved. Again, I am NOT choosing sides. I am putting this out there because both sides should be heard. People should not condemn Cordova when others, who have and are privy to more info than we are, have decided otherwise. I’m not going any further on this. Far be it from me to be judge and jury on something I know little about.
  12. How well do you really know the situation?
  13. I think folks who feel like Sark and Co. didn’t do their homework on this are misplaced. Not saying I’m one way or the other on it, but there’s a reason Lake Travis did not pursue further action. There are clearly two sides to this story
  14. There is no perfect number. But 5 conference champs sounds reasonable so long as the Big 12 doesn't deteriorate even further.
  15. Gameday for first-time folks: - Tailgate on LBJ lawn with friends. We can help you find a tent if it's just a couple of folks. - Walk campus, especially near the tower. Go to the Co-Op and get some gear. - Walk around the stadium near Bevo Blvd. If you're talking about Austin generally, that's more of a lifestyle choice IMO. In other words, would you want to go to bars and stay out late, or go to a nice restaurant with a date, or be outside and exercise, etc. Lots to do in Austin on game weekends, it all depends on who you are and what you like.
  16. That has four old SEC teams making the playoffs (five new ones, including Texas). That would have four from the Big 10. So 9 of the 12 would be SEC-Big 10. Seems more than fair IMO. Of the three schools you mention, you're asking for the 6th and 7th rated SEC team to make the 12-team playoff.
  17. Feels like we're going to go from six... to five... to four... to two soon enough.
  18. This is exactly what I'm wondering. Sark has a history of going heavy with one guy. Does he change it up like he did the end of last season?
  19. It's officially now the Big 4 +1.
  20. This is/should be doable. I like it also as a mantra. Simple and to the point and different than a W-L record.
  21. That would surpass all reasonable.expectations IMO.
  22. Texas needs to find a run-game identity in the red zone this year. They also need to better define what they want from the red-zone passing attack. I felt like Texas preferred the RPO passing game but that's not enough.
