IMO, this kid is legit.  I saw him play twice last year and he was the best player on the field in both games, by a long shot.  His strength and push is just amazing...  throws people around like they are toothpicks...

Duke -- If you could send me the info on the Palestine Ranch, I would love to get it and visit. We have two 9 month old pups (not working dogs) and they are just flat out awesome...

Updated a few numbers... Any comments from the evening crowd?

Boycott coming in 3...2...1...

The following is a table from 2000-2013 that illustrates that defense wins championships. Col 1 = Year Col 2 = The total # of teams who had a defense that gave up less than 300 yards/game Col 3 = The # of teams in the BCS title game that gave up less than 300 yards/game Col 4 = BCS Winner...

Attrition won't effect the 30 max unless the attrition comes from the recruits we just signed... 5 from 2014 + 25 in 2015... that is the max right now. We may have room under the 85, but we still can't go over 30...

I think our max next year will be 30. The number goes to 29 if Max Wittek enrolls. I count 23 commits less 3 that enrolled early = 20 commits for 2014. So we have 5 available from 2014 + 25 from 2015. If we have a good season and sign up 30 guys in next years class, we could start rolling...

Thanks for the reply/help. I initially had them grouped separate, but then I started wondering how the new staff would group them and ultimately threw my hands up and just put them all in 1 group. I imagine that we will have a lot more clarity to all of your questions in the next couple of...

The following is a roster by position, by class... I have used the composite rankings from 247Sports... Anything over .8900 is considered a 4 star. If my math is right, we will have 55 4 star or better players on our roster next year (before attrition happens)... Lots of data here, maybe...

I grew up with burnt orange blood in my veins (mom was a horn). I only applied to 1 school (Texas). That being said, I played baseball in high school and I had the opportunity to play for a few small programs, but not D1. Texas was my dream school and that's where I decided to go, but I...

Wow at these highlights... Link: Mykkele Thompson Highlights I'm sure it won't happen, but I wish he could switch to offense or at least could play some wildcat. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Z3h48P5LKmQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>

And this is why Mack Brown lost his job. He averaged 11.5 wins/year (overachieved) from 2004 to 2009 but then only averaged 7.5 wins/year (underachieved) from 2010 to 2013. It averages out nicely to 9.9 wins/year, but it doesn't get the job done at the end of the day. I have added a new...

Well there are 2 ways to look at this info. Glass is half-empty: Texas needs to do more with the talent they have on campus. We should be winning 15 games per year with that talent. Glass is half-full: Only 2 P5 teams have more wins than Texas over the last 10 years. OU & LSU. Yes, we...

I have added a column for the average number of wins over the last 10 years. As for the Texas-OU and OU-Bama games, I think the answer is QB play. (1) Case Mccoy played lights out against OU. (2) Trevor Knight played lights out against Bama. The rankings above suggest that OU, Texas &amp...

The below is a listing of P5 teams, their Rivals recruiting ranking for each year from 2002 to 2013, the average ranking for that time period and the number of times that team played in the BCS Championship game within the last 10 years. The results are sorted starting with the team with the...

I posted the following in a different thread earlier today, but I thought it applied here so I am reposting it: ------------------------------------------- Good News / Bad News So I did some research of the past 9 BCS champs... 8 out of 9 -- Each champion had a #1 or #2 ranked recruiting...

I disagree. Clearly the skies are cloudy right now, but they aren't falling. The number 1 thing we need right now is a QB. If we can find a decent QB, I think we will be in good shape going forward. Some additional work is required for us to be in great shape... That being said, I think it...
