Here for the Wins

Morons should have him rushing the passer more.

That one person? One of the Ting brothers. Dropped that easy pick that ends it.

No Kobe Bryant eh?

It’s like Hurts wasn’t benched at Bama and put up stellar numbers at OU. Nothing to do with the system. Interestingly enough, the bakers completion percentage was 2% higher than Tebows in college. Comparable yards per completion. Tebows interception % was lower (SEC vs Big 12, right?). I’m not a Tebow fan. There have been several references to discounting him being a QB due to passing. Yet ironically Vy and Cam weren’t the most prolific passers either.

Sounds pretty good. They have anything for old, uninspired dudes?

All of Bakers efforts should be discounted as this was peak OU holding their asses off. Shameful Big 12 and officiating crews. OU did not discriminate. They held everybody.

I’m not above wishing ill will towards an athlete. I’m bitter and aging, if not old. College athletics is a privilege not a right so that’s my justification. Have a nice, successful life after football. I’m always a little partial to former Horns but OU? That’s a tough one. I’d be ok with him being their leading receiver. With 12 catches.

@Hank South would you like to see Livingstone succeed?

Think it was 1980. Texas vs Houston in Austin. Born a Texas fan.

What year did you graduate?

I’ve probably earned it. I don’t pay too much close attention to recruiting anymore after about 30 years of doing so. I get some nuggets of info on the Horns guys but not a ton else. But I also watch a bit more high school than I have in years so I have a few favorites. It is a juggling act these days, and Sark is pretty adept at navigating it.

We’re talking opinions here so I was genuinely asking your opinion. They weren’t 5 stars but clearly the final results were that of a 5 star. I didn’t even specify whether we’re talking as a recruit or finished product in my question. I personally don’t care that Murphy or Poona Ford are on the shorter side therefore their grade is reduced. I believe in a roster that mixes star power and guys that fill a role. Certainly DT is what I would consider a premium position with limited resources. My preference is to hit high school hard with a mix of stars and guys the staff think are bigger upsides than their current profile projects. I don’t know where Alex January fits, he chose the Horns, plays hard and well so I’m good with that. Hope Terry does too.

Would Bryon Murphy and T Sweat have been elite in your book?

The question regarding QB is how do you get the homegrown guy to gain experience or are you willing to risk growing pains that could result in a 3 loss season?

Georgia was a different animal. The 4th and 1 from their 35 was huge. Then the 4th and 5 from around the 50. Then TD and subsequent onsides. Brilliant coaching on Kirby’s part. None of those were no brainer decisions. Yes, we likely needed some recovery physically but emotionally our spirit was taken too when they got that recovery. We still had a fighting chance had we recovered it. We were never composed after that. You’re right. Very demoralizing.
