    Special Teams Coordinator? Why not divide it up

    When everyone is coaching the special teams, no one is coaching the special teams.

    Big news coming ?

    Whether or not Bru signed an LOI in advance, back in December, is completely irrelevant at this stage. The fact of that matter is that he enrolled, has been attending classes, and is officially on an athletic scholarship at USC. If he decides now that he wants out and transfers, he's subject...

    2019 Recruiting Thread

    Tee Martin is out as Co-OC/WR's coach at USC. This may (or may not) impact Bru McCoy, as Martin is (was) also McCoy's recruiter for the Trojans (and obviously would have been his position coach). The notion that Clay Helton being retained for another season is a sign of stability for that...

    Chris Del Conte's first major coaching change..?

    Plonsky didn't like the men's track coach and wanted the women's coach to take over the whole program (though Plonsky didn't have the authority to make that happen). This was while Perrin was still the interim AD. CDC came in, quickly sized up the total dysfunction and got rid of all of them...

    Chris Del Conte's first major coaching change..?

    CDC did an outstanding job of cleaning house with the track program and getting Edrick Floreal. That was a home run hire. It needed to be, and it was. A+ grade for CDC's first hire in Austin.

    2018 spring football roster released - some notes

    Disagree with you there, with the exception of Boyd. My point was that the group as a whole (thus my use of the term "on aggregate") doesn't possess the type of natural athleticism and play-making ability of our incoming freshman crop of DB's. I expect that group, in a couple of years, to be...

    Congratulations beat OU !!!!

    Very good win, but likely too little too late from an NCAAT perspective, sans a near win-out from here in the regular season. Given the improvement over last season, despite the mid-season loss of a leading scorer, I think Shaka has been getting too much of a raw deal from most short-sighted UT...

    Doubt that anyone with a semi-clear lens would disagree with you there, esp. if this thread is any indication. I'm sure we're all hoping to be wrong on that front. I certainly am, but two close, offsensively-deficient wins at home over ULL hasn't moved the needle for me quite yet.

    This more or less mirrrors my own comments above. I feel like this program is still at least a year away, maybe two, from being a perennial CWS contender like we've seen in glory years past, but I really do like the direction that Pierce is taking it from a profiling standpoint. Namely, in...

    I know how you feel there, but Beau was literally throwing that ball right down the 1B line to Reynolds, and unless you locate the throw perfectly to the 1B's right (towards 2B, and within reach), its pretty much guaranteed to hit the runner, esp. if they're running on the inside of the 1B line...

    2018 spring football roster released - some notes

    My pleasure. I definitely think that McCullouch should represent an upgrade over Hughes at the B-backer position this season, particularly as a pass rusher. Not sure I share your enthusiasm with the secondary though, as I feel the losses of Elliott and Hill will really be felt in 2017. I'm...

    I'm still not convinced that the bats will be so much appreciably better as to make the Horns a CWS contender this year, but as much as 2 games can be an indicator, the pitching and defense should at least allow the Horns to be a 40+ win team this season and potential Regional host contender for...

    2018 spring football roster released - some notes

    The 2018 spring roster is now posted on TexasSports.com. A few notes... As known/expected, Reggie Hemphill-Mapps, Jake McMillon and Terrell Cuney are no longer with the program. As rumored, Garrett Gray, Alex Anderson and Garrett Thomas are no longer listed with the program. There are no...

    2018 Football Offseason Thread

    Urquidez is a lost cause as he's simply proven completely incapable of adding and maintaining anywhere near the requisite bulk and strength for OL play at this level. Even at the end of this past season he was still built more like a TE....and a lean one at that.

    2018 Football Offseason Thread

    He was always a long shot. He was signed by Strong pretty much entirely as a project based on his size and weight room strength and not on any real football ability. His HS film was thoroughly uninspiring. He's basically practice fodder at the Power 5 level, hence his pinballing from offense...

    2018 Football Offseason Thread

    Barnett was NOT a good coach. He had one shining moment in the form of the 1995 season at Northwestern, which created a false reputation of greatness that fueled his entire career. Beyond that he was horrible. He had 5+ losses in 13 of his 15 seasons as a head coach, won all of 2 bowl games...

    Hemphill-Mapps leaving

    Well forgive Tom Herman for not placating to the sensibilities of a key contributor who up and deserted his team/program. Herman bit his tongue and politely wished RHM well. The 'next man up' comment was directed at the returning and arriving members of the WR corps to send the message that...
