Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (Oh, the hills I choose to die on...)

+1. Accuracy definitely needs to improve, especially his deep ball. If we can’t consistently stretch the field, opposing defenses will play much closer to the line of scrimmage and key on our runs and short / sideways passes. Against the sisters of the poor it likely won’t matter, but the LSU’s and OU’s will be high-fiving in our backfield.

I think we underrate his deep ball.

Re: "What is the elephant in the room here on what's holding up what should be a slam dunk decision on paper?"

After reading the interview last week with the Brockermeyer brothers, the impression I came away with is that they are thinking about their NFL futures. Sitting at home watching the NFL Draft they saw the entire LSU line get drafted and Texas can't even get their All-Conference center drafted. Saban, obviously with skins on the wall, doesn't require much analysis. While the UT legacy is strong, their personal development seems to be the most important thing to them now.
