I thought he was very good in the spring scrimmage. Great seems like a step too far.
Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (The bottom of the roster...)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
Ketch... "I'm just going to keep saying it until I'm blue in the face ... the Longhorns really, really need to go to the mattresses for Duncanville running back Caden Durham. The kid went 10.28 this weekend. TEN-TWO-EIGHT!"
THIS!!
And it's not just his speed. Durham is shifty and runs hard.

He's a bulldog of a football player, who also just happens to have Jamaal Charles-level speed.
@Ketchum bottom of the roster breakdowns reminds me of how much less i follow recruiting nowadays beyond the 5.9-6.1 guys. For a lot of the guys he listed I’m like:
It didn't quite turn out like I wanted it to. I didn't get the presentation right.
This is going to look silly as soon as Thursday night when he’s gone way before Dallas picks. You might as well have said “I’m more than ok with Dallas taking Bryce Young.”
It just feels like you would have heard Shake it Off on accident somewhere along the way.
I did in Thursday's War Room:
"I was told in addition to having a big-time arm, Murphy has a natural feel for the passing game. The areas that impressed many people are Murphy’s anticipation, throwing window ability, match-up recognition, and velocity on throws. Those are traits that were on display throughout the spring.
"Another aspect of Murphy that has so many people giddy is his leadership ability. One person told me Murphy’s personality is “infectious.” He is a player who players on the team love. In addition, Murphy was described as a great teammate this week."
I mean... if "great" is in play... a real battle for the No.1 job should be taking place, no?
This also contradicts reports of Malik having accuracy issues of over throwing receivers in practices leading up to the spring game…
So much of this to like. He’s a dominant figure in stature and in arm strength. Those qualities don’t always translate, but when they do great things can follow.
Of course not. Quinn started in 10 games and is this team's starting QB. The backup for Caleb Williams could have a "great" spring, which would be a good individual achievement, but not affect the depth chart.
All of my sources said what we saw in the spring game was a carryover of how well Maalik played this spring. Hence, he had a great spring.
... Alabama quarterbacks Jalen Milroe and Ty Simpson both left a lot to be desired on Saturday in the Alabama spring game. If you're going to beat Alabama on the road this season, getting them very early on the calendar might be just the ticket to get you there.
... Alabama's five-star running back Justice Haynes looks like he's an incredible player just waiting to happen.
I saw the Alabama Spring game and I feel even more confident based off the QB play. But playing in Tuscaloosa is nothing to be confident about especially if its a night game. I don't remember Bijan ever having a huge spring game at Texas. So I don't feel to worried about the running back position at Texas at the moment. If you had to pick Justice Haynes vs CJ Baxter?

Go to YouTube and search Sark Pivot. Its a podcast with Coach and former NFL players. Its really good interview. Some fun nuggets about the USC-Texas 05 Game.
I was just kidding. You are very well rounded. Don’t know how you keep up with the different genres. Must be exhausting.
