  1. JMO, I would be very surprised if Chavez ends up at Texas. I love Coach Vic, love the defensive intensity, love the physicality that defines our style... but it's not the run and gun, putting up 3s that appeals to more offensive-minded players. We struggle against teams when they play zone, and other than the JMU game I don't remember a game where we took many outside shots? Someone that knows the game better than I do may contradict me, I would love to be wrong.
  2. Just a casual fan's observation but it seems the players are thinking too much instead of just playing. And when they do react, the play usually ends up sloppy, sloppy in serve receive, sloppy in setting, sloppy in hitting. Our block seems to be the only part of the game where we display confidence. Most worrisome is I don't see the team getting better. Shame to waste all this talent.
  3. Great video, thanks for posting @TexasMDcoach
  4. I know I'm in the minority, but when I saw this, the U2 song "still haven't found what I'm looking for" started playing in my head. I hope we stay on him!
  5. Wonder what this portends for the Aaliyah Chavez recruitment? I have no problem with Canady going to Lubbock, the only bad outcome would have been if she ended up at ou. Tech holds no threat to our chances for a NC next year.
  6. This downward turn all started soon after we hired Schloss... any connection? Karma's a *****! (just using a little humor to lighten the mood)
  7. Hoping you have Christian Jones a little undervalued, would love to see his name called in the 3rd.
  8. Hope you're not just playing with my emotions here Gerry, but after watching this young man's HUDL I am all in! For those that love dominating DL play, watch his film. Really hope he gets on campus and has a great visit... IMO he's a lot like Murphy only a little bigger and quicker. And he seems to play with an edge. (felt sorry for the OLinemen trying to block him)
  9. Done, this may be the first time l'm an OG at anything... Thanks for working out the glitches.
  10. As soon as you get it switched, I'm in. Bobby. Gerry, CJ, Rod, Coach... a bargain to get the insight you gentlemen provide.
  11. So what you're saying is our D-Line could use another zero-tech... or two. And that our offensive line will be dominating!!
  12. Something about seeing so many large, scary-looking linemen makes me feel warm inside. The key to winning championships is in the trenches! (and maybe QB)
  13. Interesting read, I tend to agree with you on all counts. (Sorry if that lowers your confidence) Especially in hoping X goes to the Chiefs, Brooks goes to the Cowboys, Sweat to the Ravens, and Jones going in the 3rd rd. This would all be great for Texas. Also share in your frustration about JWhitt, he will go down as one of my all-time favorites, but he just can't catch a break. Really hope he finds a team that will utilize him and let him ball out!
  14. This DL class has a chance to be very special; Brown, Sharma, Williams... all very large, very athletic big men that like to play in the opponent's backfield! Coach Baker seems to be earning his money.
  15. Learned two things watching his HUDL- 1. Sharma is a large man with great quickness and power. 2. The state of California needs better OL coaches, looked like those kids were made out of paper the way Sharma tore through them!
