Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (It's Prediction Time!)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
I never said the reports were wrong. I don't think yall report false stuff. Yall report what yall have been told. I'm just saying, this is what is gonna happen if Shane goes off this season.
And "It's swoopes and it's not even close" DOES imply that Swoopes was good. Or that Shane Buechele was TERRIBLE.
No, the implications at the time was that Shane wasn't truly ready a year ago, especially early in camp.
Being ready for this role is an issue that remains a concern.
How bad TCU dominated the past 3 years is irrelevant.
It's not when you find yourself wondering why people respect the Horned Frogs so much.

So Herman isn't gonna trust Shane and will roll with a true freshman if Shane doesn't have a career day against USC on the road? Sorry not buying that.

Oh please. TCU beat us so badly because Strong was the worst coach in Texas history. End of story.
You lost me at you can't do "the Little League World Series."
SMH. That's unamerican. A crowd of 26,500 who could do the LLWS packed historic Lamade Stadium in Williamsport, PA. on Saturday to watch the U.S. Championship game between Lufkin, Texas of the Southwest Region and Greenville, North Carolina of the Southeast Region. You missed a thriller as Texas scored 2 runs on a home run in the top of the 6th and final inning and won 6-5 in a game where they were down 5-0 after 3.
I was for San Antonio McAlister Park (Texas West) in the regionals, but they lost 2 tough one run games to Texas East (Lufkin) in the regionals. In their first game, S.A was one strike away from winning when Texas East hit a 2 run homer to tie it and then another run to win it. There's no doubt in my mind that S.A. had the 3rd best team in the nation after Lufkin and Greenville. I had no problem supporting Lufkin in the LLWS. Congrats to those boys.
Texas teams had lost 5 straight U.S. Championship games. Breaking the streak was sweet.
Unfortunately Texas, got steamrolled by the Japs in the World Championship, but there's little doubt in my mind that Japan cheated by recruiting players from outside their district's boundary. I wouldn't be surprised if Japan has to forfeit their title at some point in the future.

I had a chance to get back on campus this past week, and what @Ketchum is reporting about Shane is accurate. He's going to need his RB's to step up. Having Foreman one more year would have paid HUGE dividends.
Orlando is installing his defense and trying to tighten everything up. I'm sure he's dumping the playbook on Shane. I'm not worried about Shane at all. I would wager he will be the 3rd or 4th best QB in the league which should translate to at least 9 wins. Maybe 10 if we stay healthy.
Greg Ward wasn't being pushed by Sam Ehlinger.
Based off that, UT will never beat TCU again, right?
Seriously, I don't think that's an apples to apples comparison now that Herman is here.

Because Strong was the worst coach in Texas history
I just don't get the hand-wringing over the Cowboys' defensive personnel. What's the difference between the defensive personnel in 2016 and this season's one? Brandon Carr and Barry Church? Church will be missed, but he wasn't a major contributor, and Carr never did anything of substance in Dallas besides be healthy enough to play every game.
I can understand people saying the Cowboys were lucky to win so many single score games in 2016 that probably won't all fall their way in 2017. I also understand those who say the schedule is harder than in 2016(although I don't see a big difference from the rest of the NFC East teams.) I just think the argument that the defense will doom regular season success is lazy considering the Cowboys won in 2014 and 2016 with arguably less talent on defense.

you can't be serious dude? Guy might end up being great but give it a rest.
I think we all know what Patterson did to Chuck. What is your point? Do you think TCU has a better team than Texas?
You read that wrong. The focus of the point was on the spare transfer backup QB Ward was "competing" with during camp. Switch to decaf.
I think they are most experienced team in conference that lost a lot of close games last year. Patterson has a way of advancing such teams.
