Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (Explaining Flood's Obsession With Monsters)

Serenity will still be doing videos with us, but we'll be changing things up.

the player interviews in season were great and still really cool you sponsored Ivan before he ever did anything he did in 2022.

I understand changing it up, was there any particular reason why? were they mot
Popular? I thoroughly enjoy all the YouTube content across OB mods/sports

They just weren't popular enough.
 
@Ketchum I know you spend a lot of time with the rankings and also with the attributes that make a kid successful from a measurables standpoint of the bottom 10 in the class could you name 1 offensive and 1 defensive player you think have the traits to outperform their rankings.

spencer and burrell are underrated.

How can we not get the color correct!???

Earl's burnt orange is a thing of beauty!!!!
 
(Sell) Shawn Watson has to be on the list. So, does Larry Mac Duff. Koening probably has to be on the list because he was on the staff for less than a year before being fired by Charlie Strong. That leaves only one space. I might have Bobby Jack Wright on the list, just for his one season as defensive coordinator in 1997. That's probably not fair to Wright, who was a good coach and recruiter before he was promoted to defensive coordinator, but the decision by John Mackovic to hire him basically cost Mackovic his job 11 months later.
Ryan Nunez has to be on the list. I don’t really remember his recruiting but his offensive lines were terrible. He made McWhorter look like the second coming of Jesus.
 
I actually haven't seen it, but your review and a few other people giving it high remarks in this thread will make me watch it this week... so, thanks in advance!
It's a must imo! It's right up there with No way Home as far as best Phase 4 movies so far!

That is both a great and terrible story at the same time!
I know. It remains one of my greatest regrets and embarrassments of my life. I can still hear the soulful wail of Backsliders Wine every time I think of that day (every year of my life). I repeated it over and over and over again, assuming we were getting slaughtered.

I swore I would never do something like that again. And then the Patriots played the Falcons in the Super Bowl. I am a huge Brady fan ( big deal ….who isn’t….right!).

Anyway Methodist Hospital gave my wife and I tickets on the 50. I spoke to Roger Clemens as I got close

……cont…. to our seats, and Phil Simms was sitting in front of me. Atlanta was killing them, and then, you guessed it After the Falcons scored what would be their last points, I told my wife, “I can’t take this anymore. Let’s beat the traffic jam if we can.”

On the way out of the stadium grounds and well before we made it to our car, we heard the crowd roar behind us, and I thought, no, not again. Well YEP! By the time I heard the click of our car door, it happened, 3 more times.

As I struggled to find a radio station to find out what in the Hell was happening, I heard Jerry Jeff telling me again and again from so long ago, “do not taste……Backsliders Wine no mo”.

People are way more interested in us talking about the players than the players talking about themselves. Turns out First Take has been on for 20 years for a reason,. 🤷‍♂️
Hearing what Majors had for dinner is not must watch viewing.

Tim.

The man could recruit his ass off, though and he churned out some first rounders.

I was a freshman in high school and was able to attend the 1977 game at Kyle Field. Earl was a beast. I came up with a friend who’s brother was in school there. We went to the bon fire, drank way too much TJ Swann and had to ride back home in the bed of his dads truck (with the worst hangover of all time) cause our car broke down. His dad was our football coach. We were running gassers for a month as punishment- best of times.

This describes me, but I’m only one person and I’ve never done any research. I think for me it’s just a feeling that It’s mostly all “team speak” and general feel good stuff without a lot of substance. I don’t need to hear about their favorite music or food or that they think the team is working hard and this guy or that guy is standing out etc etc. There’s just not much value in that stuff for me.

You proved to not be alone in that.

All of the kids were personable and I watched all the videos regardless of sport. But the kids are filtered which is probably the right thing. As much as we joke about "free Moro" what would a locker room be like if kids were giving the critiques of fellow players and coaches. Off the record as sources is probably a more valuable information than getting guys disgruntled cause Majors comes in and says there's no dogs on the DL etc.

You only learn the things we've learned by experiencing them. Now we know better and can adjust for the future.

I enjoyed. But think you could limit to 1 player in the future who talked longer. Like a 15 min game recap and 15 min upcoming game view....you did the right thing trying.

at the end the day, it's more of a commitment than the players want to make

I left out i had 50 yard seats at OU where Johnny Johnson made an unassisted tackle on Billy Sims inside the 5 yard line late in the 4rth quarter to win that game 13-6
And how about Erxleban's 70 yard punt from the back of the "Horns end zone to end the game shortly after JJ's tackle ?
 
My lucky first ever game was the 1963 Cotton Bowl victory over #1 ranked zero u (my first collegiate game ever). Duke Carlisle and Nobis and the rest of the good guys were ranked #2 prior to that game and handed the sooners a 28-7 shellacking. Horns ran the table to UT's first Natty. My dad took me when I was nine years old. What a thrill and what a start to being a LONGHORN Fanatic ! HOOK'EM HORNS
 
The first Longhorn game I ever saw in person was 1977 TX/OU. My brother was a freshman at UT and got two tickets. I was 14 at the time and so lucky that he took me instead of one of his friends. It was awesome as you know! I was hooked and ended up following my brother in 1981. I've been to lots of game since, but will never forget watching Earl in the first one.

Probably, Flood’s fascination with large humans on his line is that he understands the most basic fundamental of football…

You have to win the LOS

everything else is smoke and mirrors and you know it
