Some James Simon stuff.
I am rooting for him. He flashes talent in my opinion when he gets his chances.

Our freshman LB's
Atkinson seems to be more aligned as a player to TyAnthony Smith where he makes plays in space and requires more freedom to improvise as opposed to being a scheme based LB that fits in a specific role/responsibility under Muschamp's defense. He plays more like a "turn him loose and let him attack the ball" guy IMO. Just what I am thinking. Nothing against Atkinson as I like that style generally as those players make a ton of big plays, but also know that gap risk has consequences too. I hope we can make it work with Tyler.

Dulles HS football
Fort Bend has so many expats/foreign workers, some of the school just don't have students interested in sport, much less football. Dulles, Clements, Austin, etc. I am assuming this is FB Dulles, so could be wrong school I guess.

2 Days Until Kickoff: Who Was The Best No. 2?
Eric Metcalf was our whole offense when he was playing. He will always be one of my favorite players.

Gerry said earlier this should be viewed as a visit to watch Ohio State at this point. Never say never...

Note on Tyanthony Smith (Sat. 8:04am CT)
This would be a giant blow to the team. TyAnthony's impact per play rivals some of the highest level players on the team over his career here...check the bowl game. He has also waited his turn arguably behind of players less talented than him. I do think it is consistent that we bring in a new guy who has been average over his career at FSU to be a back up/situational guy, but then we get write-ups on his "great instincts" while the team is in shells and everyone thinks he is Anthony Hill. TyAnthony's family bleeds burnt orange and are great people. Hopefully he doesn't feel he is getting unfairly treated by the coaches and comes back to make the impact we need him to.

Conversation: 2005 Texas Longhorns National Championship Two-Deep
Eric Foreman is a name that I didn't realize was on that team. Had huge talent at LB, but wanted to play offense so he transferred. I think he is in prison (or was) now for some reason. Sadly I wish he had stayed at UT and fulfilled his potential.

Deandre Moore entering Transfer Portal
Best of luck to him...great teammate from everything out there.

Are the tides turning for Texas?
The timing of Alabama's changing their non-conference schedule is very good for our chances...I am not getting my hopes up, but I do think this will positively impact our position.

Q Jammer’s son?
Good point for sure. The coaches know better who the options are for sure.

Q Jammer’s son?
Fair to say we aren’t looking at Jammer’s son? Seems very good per clips and stats at least. Q Jammer is lobbying hard for him to get a look.

Durant and the Rockets
Picking the Warriors I think had more to do with pressure from his shoe contract...He was not appreciated in OKC, so although I wish he had stayed, I do understand him looking to go somewhere else (it is Oklahoma as well)...

Recruits attending the game?
Any recruits planning to be at the game that we should be aware of? Seems like this game should be bringing in some interesting ones for sure (although early start won't help)...

I am seeing the same thing, but I have been nervous to admit it...

Deep defensive tackle rotation is a key piece of Steve Sarkisian's plan to get Texas over the hump
Second to QB, the most impactful position group on the teams success IMO. We have been spoiled and I like it!

Kaewe Brown
Best of luck to him...

Jake Kreul Interview
I am worried he is the type of guy who ends up at OU with a grudge and plays lights out in the cotton bowl against us. I hope we push for him. You can never have too many speedy edges who can disrupt a game.
