Ketch, please re-consider looking towards the NFL. There are a thousand really good NFL message boards, but I think most people subscribe to OB for information about Longhorn sports. I think it would be much more prudent for you to focus on why we pay you for your service. If I want NFL info, I'll go to my teams site. If I want Horns info, I'll come here. Please don't change that.
He wouldn't be a NFL guy. He'd be a Texas football beat writer and columnist. It could be that his previous job was as a NFL beat guy/columnist.Originally posted by meesch:

I think the TV aspect of Fox was one that really interests Chip.Originally posted by wordell1:
I wish Chip the best. What opportunities does Scout offer that OB couldn't?

Just some good family ribbing.Originally posted by BFantana:
I still laugh thinking about Chip peppering Mack with questions about Diaz after the infamous BYU game, only to have Mack finally ask the audience if anyone besides Chip has a question.
Honestly, even if Ketch didn't bring in anyone to replace me, OB would still be worth the sub because Ketch, Jason, Dustin, Taylor and Alex are that good. They grind, and that's why I have so much respect for them. Plus this message board has a life all its own. One of a kind!Originally posted by LongviewLobo01:
I've become much more of a lurker in recent times due to job and family taking more of my time but I will say that Chip has been one of the best things that has happened at OB. Not taking anything away from guys like Dustin who has and does a great job, when Chip came aboard it was a splash akin to Texas hiring Saban. Chip had been a name writer from the print world at a major print outlet in the Dallas Morning News and him coming to OB was exciting to say the least. I still recall the announcement and how big of a shock it was to us all. Good luck to you Chip and please come around periodically to drop your wisdom on us.
There have been times where I've thought about leaving the site. But at the end of the day Ketch and Jason and company have always found a way to keep me around and ensure that they are the best out there. Each and every time someone has made a move you guys have responded and kept yourself at the top. I can't wait to see who is brought in to replace Chip. I have no doubts that it will be someone great.

Hope he remembers how he dealt with the firing and his reporting.
Glad he is gone and will not be missed.
Lance Z kicks ass on the radio. He's funny, brusque, and damned knowledgable ! I love when he gives Manziel lovers grief and calls them Manzielots. The dude gets it, he probably didn't handle his time on OB very well, but he makes fun of every fan base. Him and Johnny Harris are by far the two best sports personalities in Houston! Bring him back, hell, every recruit in the Houston area listens to him and he's probably pro Horns 80% of the time. Hell, he's getting rich off his lawyer wife that has two degrees from UT.Originally posted by Ketchum:
The weirdest thing about this thread is easily the angst towards Lance .Z.
My man brings a charge out of some of you.
