Raulerson transferring

Thank you to all of you for the good wishes. There is so much education that needs to be done on breast cancer, and it's something that I want to contribute to when I finish running all over God's Green Earth seeing doctors. You cannot imagine how many kids have told me their mom, aunt, or grandmother quit therapy because of the side effects.

I realize that I have been very fortunate, but I cannot imagine giving up on life-saving therapy due to side effects. We need to do more education on screening, selection of a facility, and types of services available.

My admiration for Dennis has grown, and I didn't think that was possible. He never gave up, and he never lost his positive outlook.

Please keep the prayers coming.

 
I've wondered if his issue with a core value stemmed from a belief that he may have had that Wickline didn't keep one (or more) of them.

Hook 'em!

 
Is Raulerson big enough to play OL?  I've seen posts that range from he can't gain weight to some that claim he is 300 lbs.  WTF, if he is 290 lbs I have to question Wickline's motives for not playing him.  It disgusts me to see a player gung ho on UT not getting the chance to prove himself.  If he is going to be a 250 lb Junior, maybe he can't play at the level Texas needs but if he has the size to play the new OL coach Mattox needs to put the press on.

According to Raulerson's dad, who most deem trustworthy, Wickline is the reason why Jake never played.

 
Mattox and Gilbert have not had face/practice time with Raulerson but if they think Raulerson is good enough to play in the rotation, then they should go after him to stay.  If Jake graded out well because he was playing against 2nd and 3rd teamers during mop up time, then the coaches need to take a hard look at that.  Mattox doesn't want to promise playing time if it is not justified and Jake doesn't want to stay just to be passed over again.  One problem is that centers don't usually rotate in and out like guards and tackles can.  It's hard decisions all around.

I just saw Jake a few days ago lifting weights here in Celina down at the high school.  He is a lot bigger now and he is everybit of 300 or more now  and pretty damn strong from watching him lift.  I will say one thing he is very dedicated and worksout at 100% as he was drenched.  I was suprised to see how little rest he took and the amount of agility work he was doing.  I think he has already made his decision but I know nothig more than that!  

 
Once you open the transfer door, you have to go out it. You lose the backing of the locker room, and the coaches can go and actively recruit them back, or they lose the locker room, see example aggy and the ass kissing Stumblin put on KM.
