Dread-headed Texan

The league is physical. CC came into the season with a soft tissue injury. Did her teammates injure her in training camp? Then she came back and injured her other groin, with no contact. Not sure what being a leabian has to do with, but you don't have to convince me you're not watching. They go at Cintron and Paige just as hard so I don't think it's racial. It is what it is, I get it, you're not a fan of the W. You're a fan of Clark and that's cool with me.

I get and understand if your a CC fan, but when it comes to the Fever they're more than just CC. Truth be told they are accomplishing more without her. What Stephanie White is doing with that group of women is nothing short of remarkable. Half of the starting roster and every point guard they had at the start of the season is injured. Still they were able to win their first playoff series in over a decade. They put the ball in Kelsey Mitchell hand and she said get on my back I'll carry us. Next year the Fever are going to have to find a way to move CC off the ball to maximize the offense. Nobody in the league can stay in front of KM or keep her from collapsing the defense. That will relieve the pressure on Clark and get her much easier and better shots. An efficient Clark is dangerous, Clark shooting 15% from logo 3s might as well be just another turnover.

Man I can watch MVPhee and AT go at it all day. And seeing Satou Sabally in short shorts run up and down the court is a plus for me. She can just stand in a corner and I'd watch her.

The part that sucks is they haven't been able to get Hawkins any meaningful gametime reps in this new offense.

As long as Arch don't have the kind of ups and downs to make me pull out my locs one strand at a time I'm good. So far he aint doing my liver any favors, so I'm going to need him to get right sooner than later🙏🏿🤣

I like the O-line for next year. I think if Trevor goes pro, we move Baker to LT, and Brooks starts RT, I'm a big Cruz fan, of course either Neto needs to play with more consistency or Stroh with better balance, LG is my biggest question. As far as running back I like Clark and Simon. Not really sure what to expect from Gibson. Because sometimes he does, but more often he doesn't. The trio of Parker. Wingo, and Moseley should be great. The TE room is so versatile they can thumb wrestle to see who gets what play and Texas will still be good there.

Was the expectations of Arch coming into the season a bit too lofty? Ummm, yea! Was his start to the season a little slow? You bet it was. With that said let's look at what he's done so far and why I'm not concerned, or haven't been concerned, and excited going forward. So far Arch in his first five starts excluding SHS, is 4-1 with 15 passing TDs, 1550 yards, 5 ints, and 7 rushing touchdowns. Not bad for a guy who if his name was Arch Jackson would be a 3 star. I don't believe Arch will be a three year starter at Texas, but with what he's done so far, and with usually the biggest jump is from year one starter to year two starter, I'm extremely bullish. Think of the jump Quinn made. With the defense Texas has right now, Arch being a distributor is enough to get the job done. Sure he had some things to clean up, more defenses to decipher, and become more accurate in terms of ball placement. However, it hasn't been all bad. We've seen some big time throws, we've seen him stare down the barrel of a blitz take a hit and deliver a dime, we've seen the down feild accuracy, escaping ability, and yes arm talent. When not if Arch starts to dictate how defenses defend him and make them pay for over aggression, Texas will be in a great place. Let's just hope we get there later this year and we don't have to wait until next year. 🤣 and yes, I'm up at 0500 rewatching SHS, specifically Arch because sleep said not today, that ain't what we wanna do🤘🏿

This Minnesota/Phoenix game is unhinged 🤣 I'm glued to the TV

He may happen to be, but the throws he made in that game were nothing special. His best throw the entire game was a layered throw in the redzone for a touchdown and that was like a ten yard pass. And let's be honest he was playing against a depleted secondary and they lost a guy during the game for targeting. We've seen multiple qbs complete 80-85% of their passes this year. We just seen Arch do it, Sayin did it, Ty Simpson did it as well as a couple others, but not a nal one of them did it versus a formidable defense.

They're going to need all three weeks to prep Texas now.

If Oklahoma didn't have a running game before they reallllllllly don't have one now

🤣 with Lagway "hurt"(watch The Program to understand the quotes) and playing like white dog poop, who is the next boogie man?

Nothing if you're looking at stats. Everything if you look at the games. I haven't seen many big time throws from him. Much of his numbers are quick hitters and slants getting the ball to his playmakers in space.

Come on man 🤣 let's be honest he's going to be a great clipboard holder, practice squad qb, or at best CFL starter.

The season as a whole has been great. It's not for everyone, but it only gets better from here when Betts, JuJu, and Midrange Maddy coming soon. Hell I can't wait for Unrivaled, it's everything the Big 3 wanna be.

Arch played like he watched this commercial and understood the message and assignment. Don't show up for anyone but your team and you. Trust your work and I'll all come together, because no matter what Arch does, he plays quarterback at The University of Texas. Everything he does or doesn't do will be put under a microscope. Don't just have a seat on the hate train, drive that mfer and own the track. And when you do those same doubters will be clamoring for a piece of your success. Thats when Arch should look to the guys to his left and right and say WE did it! https://youtu.be/MyeHdAAcJO0?feature=shared

I'm going Rosatis and a lot of beer

With all of the issues on the offensive side of the ball, I don't remember one time the offense has put the defense in a bad position. That's with a couple failed 4th down conversions, two interceptions, and a fumble.

Did Arch try unplugging his arm and plugging it back in? I had the same procedure and the latest update is trash. 🤣

Just gonna sit this right here https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6623803/2025/09/13/arch-manning-grimace-injury-texas-longhorns/

Explains the Sr QB transfer in at Heritage

The first punt gonna start WW3

I'm usually blitzed by the 3rd quarter, and if it isnt going our way sooner than that🤣🤣🤣

A little different eras with NIL and the portal, but I get what you're saying. They also had a first round qb in Tua, that makes a big difference when the qb is the driver of the bus.

Do you remember the offense of the 5-7 team? Then the 8-5 team, then both playoff teams. The personnel didn't change in either one of the playoff teams. The offensive line was more finesse than power, they didn't have a power back, and weren't good in the redzone. I wouldn't say they are a let down, just that they were maxed out and wasn't good or had the players needed to push it over the top. They're a disappointment in the sense they couldn't get it done, but IMHO I think Sark got the most of that variation of the offense.
