I don’t recall Diaz, Bedford, and Orlando having a defense that bad. You may be giving some of these too much credit. But point taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking at the defense this way, each one of those coaches mentioned (Diaz, Bedford and Orlando) all had a decent to good defense in their 1st years on the job. They got statistically worse every year after. PK had a bad defense in year 1 so they can only improve right? I mean there is nowhere else to go.

Billybass Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Let’s not forget that we have TWO generational quarterbacks and the best Oline haul in longhorn history. And the best running back in the nation. And a set of receivers that is damn good. last year our offense sucked in the second half of almost every game we lost. If they can score, the defense will look a lot better. The league rules are set up for the offense. In this league, you gotta score. And we will score a lot more in the future. It might take a year or two, but we will see flashes of brilliance soon Eastexhorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different topic. Now if he does not get the money they promised then we are on topic. Its not just about not paying as they said, they were stung by fine print in the contract. So they feel hoodwinked, which fosters negative feelings any time it happens. This of course adds to the likelihood of a portal entry as no one really likes to play for people who stuck it to them. Him not wanting to visit was a point toward the paying process. When he visited, they slapped him across the face with hundred dollar bills. He ends up aggy. He ends up burned. Word gets out, others pay attention, which is why their class sucks so bad. That and the fact that they've had the spotlight on them over paying their recruits.

Players on both defensive and offensive today are bigger and faster than they were in the 70s and 80s. The first 300 lb’er was Refrigerator Perry in the 80s. The reason defenses were better was offensive linemen weren’t allowed to extend their arms to block, late hits on QBs weren’t really a thing, WRs could be pushed out of bounds and become ineligible, and defenders were allowed to hold receivers all the way down the field until ball was in the area.

Same can be said for 50's and 60's. However borh teams played by same rules and the two were fair QBS And Horns will get a commitment this weekend.

Yes. Georgia basically conceded by punting on 4th down with very little time left. It took us by surprise so a DB dropped back last minute and tried to field the punt. The fumble put them somewhere around the 20. They say high emotionally charged moments burn in your memory. Let’s just say I wrote all of that without Google for assistance.
