I'm sure it wasn't much different last year too for the first 7 games. Yet, Kyle Flood somehow is still our OL coach.

Agree with all of it but the last one unfortunately will also likely lead to durability issues. He's got to be already feeling it not matter how tough he is. Arch gets hit sticked every game when he runs a lot. That soreness will affect your throws too.

Did he mean "stinker"? In seriousness, probably the deep post and seam routes. Don't know of anything else that would be considered effective against the defense so far.

I agree. KJ coming in an just handing the ball off is not useful at all. Mark my word, we will need KJ Lacey at some point this season. Arch looked like he barely survived that MSU game. He was bleeding and getting up slow a number of times after taking too many big hits. Sark's going to keep using him that way because he's most effective when his legs are a factor too but it'll be inevitable he gets knocked out of a game at some point.

We don't make the playoffs, he gets one mulligan at the expense of the OC before he's on the chopping block. So he'd have to get rid of Flood at the minimum which would open up the OL coaching position as well. I'd find a OC that he trust calling plays too. Unfortunately these decisions will coincide with the QB situation. We need an OC and a QB that fit. Arch an Sark do not fit well together and it's painful watching the offense so inconsistent.

Yea Arch is very different than the last 3 QBs they've had. I could see him at Indiana. It's a run first offense where the QB is more a manager and only has to make a limited amount of crucial plays.

I would have put Ole Miss WR vs Texas Cornerbacks. Mascoe hasn't had a good game since OSU. I have a feeling Ole Miss will be picking on him tomorrow down the field which could be costly if Mascoe keeps getting PIs.

As long as Kevan is on the mound come playoff time, I'll take our chances against anyone (in history for that matter). On top of that, we have 2 potential play of the year candidates in our lineup that's already stacked with speed and power. OU and Tech are good too but this lineup is better.

More gaming the system. The SEC and Big 10 should just make the power move.

Preseason rankings don't matter. I just want to see us find our identity and rotations earlier than last year. We have the shooting and athleticism. We just need to develop all of their toughness that will translate into stronger defense and rebounding. We'll be scary by midseason.

31 Ole Miss 27 Texas I predict we get 17 in the first half, fall behind in the second half 31-17 and then score quickly 2 times to make it close. It's hard for me to imagine our offense scoring more than 30 points when we haven't done it yet against a P4 team no matter what changes we make. And Chambliss will test our CBs who have been a bit shaky of late. I hope I'm wrong but this could be day 1 of the beginning of the end of this era of Texas football. If we lose this game, the fit will hit the shan.

I don't think we've had a team this stacked ever. I hope being such a favorite this year doesn't mess up the culture and mentality of the team but we're witnessing potentially a dynasty. If Kevan wins a 3rd, she will be the undisputed best collegiate pitcher of all time and if she pitches for USA next summer, we could be talking about her as the best ever period over Cat. The softball team is what Texas excellence looks like under Coach White. Elite coaching, recruiting, leadership and culture.

Fair ranking. We got to gel much more with the new players before we can truly compete.

Love watching so many of the players playing. There are so many right now.

After watching Todd McShay talking about Arch on his podcast, it made wonder a few things. Gerry/CJ, have these issues (inability to make reads, slow decisions) with Arch been prevalent this entire time (even last year), but we've been distracted by a few big runs? He's gotten a lot of credit for "NFL throws" but in reality were questionable decisions into double coverage a number of times this year and even late last year. The way McShay put is Sark has been hiding this (or lying in his words) from the public/media for a while now. Any validity to this?
