Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (Ketchstradamus makes his return!)

Oh stop. It's a beautiful movie from a cinematography standpoint at the very least.
The first part is all that matters. I think we know the second part is damn near all due to lack of options.
Not like that. Womanizer, cheated on his wife, hot head, kinda dumb and what everyone already knew depressed.
There's an NFL player inside that kid. I'm not sure we'll ever see it.
It's not good enough, couldn't agree more. But it is progress. We won the first game, and somehow threatened to make the Sweet 16 against a much better team so I'll give Beard that.
But now he has to start from almost scratch for next season and the bar is already set at Sweet 16 or higher so he needs to get to work.
I will say that if DD had been healthy enough to play 25 minutes a game all year, this would have been a better team.
They don’t even have to try; failure is part of the Texan’s DNA.
Yeah, but they'll do something silly like win games they need to lose, costing itself draft position and value.
The Power of the Dog simply does not warrant a best picture or best director nomination. The story was boring, slow, and borderline meaningless.
Someone needs to tell Hollywood that lack of dialogue doesn't make a movie "deep" or thought provoking. It makes it boring as hell.
POTD was the opposite of an Aaron Sorkin written script.
We are talking about someone who is about to go through their first spring, right? Tough crowd.
On the other hand, I have seen some reports that Sanders has shown more focus and effort during winter conditioning than at any point last season. Seems he may have taken the fact that they brought in Billingsley as a wake-up call. I will be interested to see if that plays out in the next 5 weeks.
I've reported that he's shown promise in the off-season and seems to be doing better.
Still doesn't change the fact that I expected a 5-star to come in and do more than make zero impact.
My comment focuses on the inability to clear the lowest possible bar in year one.
I sure hope that the basketball team doesn't devolve into a 75% roster makeover every year. Personally, I find it very hard to get into a sport where most/all of the kids are new every year and basically the student part of student athlete has been totally thrown out the window.
I realize guys like Ramey, Jones & Cunningham have surely done their time at UT, but I just get this feeling they might be the last of a breed.

I really appreciate the Scholarship Board updates for football.
The big thing that it always reminds me of is how difficult it has become for Texas to bring in develop/progress and retain kids over a 4 year timeframe.
I don't think you win with Freshmen and Sophomores being the vast majority of players and top talent on your team. And very few kids seem to ever last to their Junior and Senior seasons.

Was Gilbert an elite college skill player? Yes or no.
Never have figured out what his NFL pension status has to do with his college career discussion. I mean, Stephen McGee earned his NFL pension a lot quicker.
Well if you dont shit the bed in several regular season games you wouldnt be playing a 3 seed in the second round. We made our matchup
I think there might have to be one more huge turnover before the program settles.
Of course, he never emerged as an elite college skill player.
It's just about a morsel of respect.
He was just a pretty good college player for a myriad of reasons, but one that produced more than 10,000+ yards of offense. He has ended up sticking around in a league full of 1% of 1% workers, earned a super bowl ring, had a chance to make a start on Thanksgiving for Americas team and played long enough in the league to earn a pension.
That's worth a morsel of respect. I just can't make you give it.
