  1. IMHO this is an issue with multiple layers of issues. Peeling the onion back...lack of development particularly with GCG groups is first and foremost. Second is a finesse style of offense. Looks pretty but when it comes to Championship time you better be able to punch the opposing team in the mouth. Third is the acceptance of mediocrity along the OL. If it werent an acceptance of this...its really difficult to explain average or worse for several straight years. Fourth is are we recruiting the right guys. Not just big humans but does this dude provide the kind of punch we are looking for. And last but not least. Leadership is a real issue especially on the offensive side of the ball. Muschamp has done a really good job getting great production from multiple players through a myriad of injuries. Texas offense needs to either put up or shut up. Its pretty sad that the anchor of the team is a head coach dubbed an offensive genius with this poor of development at the QB position and inability to adjust and finish games through 4 quarters of quality ball. My point is that there os more than enough blame to pass around and have leftovers to dole out seconds. Texas has done a great job recruiting but havent turned those 5*s and high 4s into world beaters. Banks being the exception.
  2. Heard the Ringling Brothers had an opening in the clown troop. They can fit one more in the car.
  3. I would be very curious how many of those teams are in the same ballpark of Texas talent level?? The Bama victory and the OSU game this year are 2 that I distinctly remember but i dont recall any of the others
  4. Ed doin the H Town shuffle. Dude is tough and loves the game. Good recruiter to tho Im not sure how some of these kids understands anything he says. He is definitely a menace to deal with in East Texas and Houston. Dont envy anyone that has to outsell him. Glad Texas has some coaches that can sell the Longhorns as well as he does the kittykats.
  5. On the defensive side if they get a substantial lead id like to see LB and DB rotating to mix and match for both this season and next. Offensively Id be curious who theyd roll out at any combo of GC. Would be nice to get RB and WRs rotating in as well to tinker with different sets as well. As far as QB goes...it may be good to let Arch roll and build some confidence if the game is going that well as long as there arent any designed runs and there is an in depth convo for him to just throw it away. I know this season is getting a little long in the tooth for change but nothing motivates guys like seeing the next guy up outperforming the starter to get someones attention.
  6. While Texas plays undisciplined at times...when there is a huge disparity it should be questioned. Watch a UGA game and see how many freebies Kirby gets. Gautreaux before and after games...
  7. You would think winning 3 of 4 quarters would get the job done. Problem is Texas 1 and 2 quarters is better but the 3rd they are getting outplayed by a lot not a little bit. The 4th we are marginally better. With that being said I dont know if its so much adjustments as it is the Longhorns not establishing the LOS or the run or pass game. It almost looks like sleep walking and we will worry about it in 15 min when its close again. 4 quaters of play has been an issie for Texas for awhile. Last 5 years Texas has led wire to wire against P4 programs 7 times. That includes the B12 years. 60 games. I love my Longhorns but they lack the killer instinct that other dominant programs have. Would love to see this change.
  8. Wish the young man quick and complete healing. Will he return to the 40 or take his services to the NFL.
  9. UTSA laid out the map to pressure the Texas pass game and penatrate the running game. IMHO the sack numbers only paint a partial picture. (Per SI) The negative plays in general both running and passing is the bigger issue. You have to do something well and to this point in the season Texas has not established consistency in any aspect of offensive play. Texas offensive line is just that...offensive. if the GCG does not figure out how to communicate, switch, or pick up blitzes through the A and B gap this season will fall well short of expectations. Yards Per Game 361.0 (lowest of the Sarkisian era) Yards Per Play 5.2 (104th nationally) Yards Per Rush 119th nationally Explosive Plays (20+ yds) 126th nationally EPA Per Play 0.01 (worst in Steve Sarkisian's 6-year tenure
  10. Dakorian Moore is questioning life decisions. Real debate is has he gotten more development there than in Austin? And did the Longhorns have more added talent and depth because of his subtraction from the roster??
  11. I dont think there is enough storage for all the gaggie jokes.
  12. He was an MMA and kickboxing fighter. He was pretty good if memory serves me
  13. Get well Gerry. We all need the snark on C&F. Batman Bobby is no good without the Joker Gerry.
  14. DEs are going to have to make sure pressure comes outside in as Lacy has breakaway speed if he gets the edge. Also has great yac yards as well as elusive so Texas will have to gang tackle the ball. Lacy has also had a bit of trouble aecuring the ball so there needs to be a lot of punch rake.
  15. Cignetti would be his best option or maybe USC.
