Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (Ignore my narcissism for a moment...)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
And I'll never forgive Major for getting him concussed on a called run late in that BYU game.
It blows my mind that aside from GG, we weren’t cherry picking elite QBs nationally. Damn shame.
Ash is my favorite QB since Colt. I can't wait to see Card and Milroe I just hope they have some good OL. We will always have good WR/DB need Lineman. Why do we have so many top QB signed and no OL?
I would have to add in any one of either Harry Callahan, Philo Beddoe, or Josey Wales (nobody plays a badass better than Clint Eastwood)
It is a list of TV badasses. If not, Harry Callahan would certainly belong.
Some of those qb's were so overrated it isn't funny. Case McCoy the #24 qb in the country, Connor Wood #3, Heard #6 and others too were way overrated.
It’s probably not an accurate memory but... I seem to remember Simms throwing it to an underneath linebacker at least once a game. Right or wrong that’s how I remember him at Texas.
But if you put a below-average qb behind a great oline you probably win more than a great qb behind a below-average oline. The great qb gets hurt behind the bad line. When we had Simms, Vince and the first few years with Colt our oline talent was stellar. The last year Colt played his ass off behind an average to below-average oline. Look how he got ragdolled in the big12 championship against Nebraska. I have never heard it mentioned, but I believe the injury in the Alabama game was probably something that was already damaged or lingering from the beating he took in the Nebraska game. Texas NEEDS coach Hand to get the most out of the talent he has on the roster and develop Angilau, Hookfin, Tyler Johnson, and all the high ranking freshman we have coming in. Get these guys drafted so we can recruit the top linemen in the state every year so that we can start to put NFL caliber offensive lines on the field.
Gotcha, I missed that. In that case, I would go with Vic Mackey from The Shield. I know dirty cops are taboo right now, but anyone who presses a child rapists' face into an electric griddle like a grilled cheese sandwich is a badass by any definition.
Whatabout someone from E company
Negan was crazy strong as was reedus’s Daryl character
And BA Barrackas from the A team
Amos from the expanse is certifiable
NoHo Hank and Barry are pretty strong
Optimus Prime was the OG badass, with HeMan
Dexter was a force until his writers made him fall in love with his sister
Pesky Blinders Thomas?
Ragnar from Vikings

he was a five star when the first rankings came out

I love the hiring of Yurcich, and know they have a great relationship, but he's said numerous times the last few days playing for Texas has been a lifelong dream. His pics as a kid remind me of Sam, who was coming no matter who the coach was.
I think he would have come with Ash still here, though there's likely more excitement with Yurcich...at least there should be.
So @Ketchum, do you think you'll be able to objectively evaluate Ewers over the next year and a half and possibly move him up your rankings? Or are you going to cling to your current ranking to be different, regardless of what the film says (like you admitted to doing with Luck and Griffin)?
Have you ever broken down the offensive lines by recruiting rankings that played in front of VY, Colt, and Sam?
Like I said in another thread- over time Ketch catches up and he will be in his Top 3, maybe even Number 1 by the time he has to officially grade the kid for the history books. Relax folks.
Yeah but Case whipped aggy's ass in what I hope is the last time we play them.
Because this staff is better at recruiting quarterbacks than offensive linemen.
I think both are more talented, but that doesn't answer you question, I suppose.
