  1. True. Still he had some 2-3 round predictions in the teams need qbs argument. But this year not so many compared to last year.
  2. Specific to the Longhorns and rounds 1-3, the NFL teams certainly rewarded several players who came back to finish eligibility--Baron, Broughton, Collins, Mukuba. Leaving early--worked out for Banks and Golden Not working out for a high pick--Ewers, Blue, Williams, Bond (other issues). Probably Williams ends up being the biggest mistake and wondering if this affects future year decisions. Completed eligibility and did their best--Helm, Sorrell, Majors, Conner, Gbenda, Bolden, Holmes, Norton. Hoping for a good Saturday for the group. Plenty of time for this group to do well in the league despite draft status.
  3. I guess the OMG moment was not a pick/reach, but the Sanders slide.
  4. Everyone loves mock drafts. But every year there is a (usually 1st round) pick that stuns the experts and throws multiple team boards into disarray. Then becomes the headline of next day draft grades. I can never predict the first major “reach.” Thoughts ?
  5. Works well for other sports and hobbies. Addicted to Reels.
  6. FB postings with fake news on recruiting, portal, anything shocking. Earlier this week a post saying Sark died in a plane crash.
  7. What a sea of fake Longhorns news. Reporting fake news does not seem to deter. Perhaps the upcoming community notes helps. Everyone else seeing this ?
  8. I mostly watch in person, but for TV viewing, the aerial camera shots from over the QB are really interesting. A common theme I see when Quinn sacked or forced to a checkdown for minimal gain is the combination of 1) extra pressure arrives, disrupting the timing, 2) Quinn has to make a decision and unlikely to run out of it to buy time (occasionally works), 3) You have typically 3 vertical threats working their routes but no one's head is looking at Quinn to adapt the play, and he can't make a throw. I'm no passing game expert, but seems like the route trees need more variety such that at least someone is on a shorter timing pattern and available for an early release. We did have that nice 2nd TD to Blue on a wheel route timed over a blitz--should have had a lot more of those this year, including UGA games.
  9. Several online comments out there about ASU out-coaching UT. From a big picture view, I would argue that winning coaches are not out-coached as a summary comment, even if the losing teach had in-game successes like shutting down the UT run game. You are what the final score says you are.
  10. I'm more interested in: 1) why the run game stuffed, 2) If ASU overplaying the run then why minimal successful targets to Bond and Wingo (although a nice catch in OT), 3) have we stopped any special teams trick plays?. Defense was amazing considering how long they were on the field.
  11. They say that orthopedic surgeons can make some money hanging out around ski resorts. Cardiologist could do the same hanging out around Longhorns fans.
  12. Casey Cain entered the portal. Surprised he has eligibility and wondering the plan.
  13. Back in the portal again... Denver Harris--recalling the staff spent a lot of time on his first recruitment. He's already down to 1 year left. I think on the long Arch manning TD run against UTSA, Harris had an angle to tackle near the goal line but too late. An article from his OV: https://www.si.com/college/texas/football/top-2022-cb-denver-harris-impressed-with-longhorns-after-visit-to-austin Isaiah Neyor again--some articles talk on NFL possible. From our own portal activity, it was interesting to look back at the 2023 class with Jelani McDonald and Tausili Akana ranked right next to each other, but very different development directions.
  14. I’m at the Texans vs Dolphins game and both teams’ passing attack is mostly horizontal or 5-10 yard range. Neither team has attempted a true deep shot. Maybe Quinn is ready.
