All Gas No Brakes

“We just wrapped up Jim Schlossngale's media availability ahead of tomorrow's opening game of a three-game home series between No. 1 Texas A&M.” Formerly No. 1 and currently unranked Texas A&M* 😂

How did it go from missing a start to catastrophic season ending injury?

Thanks for the update CJ! Great stuff! I hate to be that guy though. A typical Achilles injury repair timetable is actually a bit longer. For return to sport, the timetable is actually 9-12 months.

My prediction is 4.33. He’s gonna go in prepared to run his 40 run faster than people are predicting. More like Barron and Golden, and unlike Blue and Bond.

Good stuff! Thanks for posting!

Just wanted to shout out @CJ Vogel on something. He recently said that all Texas offensive drives needed to end on a kick, whether it be a PAT, FG, or punt. On a show earlier this week, Case McCoy mentioned the exact same thing. He said Mack Brown emphasized to that team that every drive needed to end with a kick as well. And if we look at last night’s game, the game would have been over in the third quarter if we could have ended those 2 third quarter drives with kicks (FG or TD/PAT) instead of turnovers.

Thanks for the update CJ! Great work as always! Hopefully Quinn and Bond getting treatment on their bummed ankles together will improve their rapport on the field 🤘🏼

With all due respect CJ, I disagree about Florida. Even though he had a much better game vs the Gators, I would say he was still struggling with the mechanics of his throwing motion. His stats looked much better because Sark’s scheming and play calling was on point. But if you look back at even some of his TD throws, he’s not rotating his trunk aggressively with a solid base. It seems he’s compensating the necessary trunk rotation you would see with good mechanics (solid base with both feet planted firmly and shoulders square). We’ve seen this all too much with his back foot throws, fading back, open base with feet not aligned to his target. All these things decrease the amount of torque and therefore the strain applied to the affected muscle.

That’s not necessarily true. I’m not agreeing that he’s still injured, but if he was the fourth and two run wouldn’t exacerbate his injury like a throwing motion does. If his oblique injury is not 100% healed, then the rotational component and the torque that the throwing motion requires would be much more difficult than lowering your head and pushing forward with your legs.

Bodes well for Sam Ehlinger though 🤘🏼

Hopefully he’s related to Saka Dakyubee. All must gets.

If I’m not mistaken, he was being recruited to Texas as a DB/safety but he wanted to play WR. So the staff stopped prioritizing him. And now we are well equipped at both those positions.
