It's hard to say I agree. We saw him go and play against Michigan as a true freshman. Saw him play well multiple times (albeit to just fumble near the end) but I felt as though he was starting to make some hay. Hell, he played great against Sam Houston (who didn't), but for the staff to not even give him a run in his hometown just feels wrong. Especially with how the game was going and you need a spark against Florida. This is not to say I think Wisner is bad, I think he's great at outside zone and I love the toughness he brings but let's not get it confused, he cannot and will not be able to carry the load alone this year and I don't see Simon as a bruiser back. I think with Baxter being hurt you could've run him using some of the same plays (gap and power schemes) we saw them use against Ohio State, Wisner run the outside stuff, and Simon could blend both styles while also being a 3rd down back in the receiving game. Would've preferred to see more push to keep him around through the season.

Gutted for this. My favorite RB on the roster. Really thought he would be our freight train inside zone guy. Writing was on the wall when he didn't get a touch in his hometown. IMO terrible mishandling of the situation by the staff and by the young man himself. Could've easily seen PT this week with a banged-up Wisner and with IT reporting that they do not expect Baxter to return. Just sad all around.

Would also add Posse East and Crown and Anchor by campus. (North Campus)

Around Campus? Mockingbird Saloon (Used to be the local) Victory Lap Cain and Abels Downtown? Scholz Garten Little Woodrows Rustic Tap will have it up on a big screen I'd guess Mean Eyed Cat (If you can get good seats and are west) East CHALMERS hands down South Plenty of good spots, just look up dive bars near me

23 - 9 Texas Florida scores in the fourth and tries to go for two but does not convert.

Going to hit like crack when Arch completes the deep ball to Wingo for a touchdown!

@CJ Vogel Driver yips are no joke 🤣 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRKH4nIWRUg

If it's full-blown performance anxiety, get my boy on the Ricky Williams program! Tiger and Phill chewed CBD gum in their last major victories.

That makes sense, wasn't trying to say he needs to be actively thinking of it. It's hard to putt it into words but Jason Day kind of talks about it especially when he was world number 1. It is more so like a deep breath after breaking the huddle and prior to getting under center or in shotgun solely thinking positive thoughts and about success.

Yips off the tee are very common. Look up Kevin Na at the Players or more recently Nick Dunlap, to some degree Spieth got the yips off the tee. In a way it starts with some aspect and then permeates to the others. Golf seems like it has a higher success ate of recovery than baseball. My guess is that Arch is overly focusing on mechanics, same goes with the golf swing. I think some hardcore visualization of execution pre-play similar to a reshot routine would work wonders.

Going off what Sark and Arch have said in their media availabilities, it seems they’ve basically confirmed the mental plague that is the yips. When Arch compared it to flushing a 60-degree wedge, it immediately made me think about my own golf swing going sideways from time to time. For reference, I’m a single-digit handicapper who has played competitively, but I’ve still caught the shanks—and in Arch’s case, the “yips”—that remind me of Tin Cup. Instead of obsessing over what’s going wrong or how to “fix” the motion, sometimes the best move is to take a step back. Play with your buddies, clear your head, or in Tin Cup’s case, “look like an idiot” but stripe it pure. That ties right into what Sark said after the game—basically, he just needs Arch to go out there and play instead of drowning in over-analysis. Golf teaches the same lesson: you can’t obsess over the outcome; you can only focus on the next shot. For Arch, that means the next play. And just like in golf, those moments of panic—the shanks, the yips—can disappear as fast as they showed up. It’s usually darkest before the dawn, and often the breakthrough comes right after the ugliest stretch. Would love to hear how other people think the best way to get the confidence going again is.

Hey everyone, This might be a dumb question, but with the recent injuries in the RB room and depth being squirrely for a short yardage back, is there any chance we see Texas Baseball's Nik Sanders tote the ball? 6'2" and 215 is pretty big, seems like there's a world where he runs between the tackles this year. Let me know y'alls thoughts. Hook Em!

Which stadium are y'all most excited to go to in the future for games? I can't wait for the opportunity to see the Swamp at night and for the excuse to play some Florida golf in the fall. Also saw that Georgia voted to allow alcohol sales in the stadium so that would be fun too!

Are we sure that is not Dallas Turner?

Eager to see the changes on the mound with Coach Pierce taking over pitching responsibilities, I also like coach Rod's coaching philosophy when it comes to hitting. Cool to see UT implementing the Waco area from Connolly in football and the Baylor teams in baseball. Was always weird the little UT influence there when I was growing up.

Loved the idea of Coach O coming but I don't mind this hire either. After watching the WKU interviews he kind of reminds me of Coach Choice with his vernacular. Seems like a well rounded and adaptable hire with ties to the south east and the ability to say, "I've coached in the league and you have what they are looking for," to recruits. Just my 2 cents, Hook Em!
