Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (The Houston vs. Dallas discussion reappears...)

[Ketchum]

Harden should be MVP or at the very least co-MVP

Nah.

 

[Ketchum]

Westbrook with an MVP moment. That will likely seal the deal. I don't even like the guy and that was fun to watch.

He's had about a half-dozen in the last three weeks.

 

[Ketchum]

It's Houston...it's always been Houston

Rocket fan, and I'm fine with Westbrook as the MVP...maybe it will light a fire in Harden for the playoffs?

That first-round playoff series is gonna be a delight.

 

[Ketchum]

Zaire sucks

He put up a good battle in the fight for last year's fight with Kizer. Both of them have showed star qualities.

 

[ball911]

True, but I'm talking about the incessant D > H, or H > D.

Kountze>Muleshoe

 

[Ketchum]

Kountze>Muleshoe

Dems fightin' words.

 

[cm1308]

Fermino, tho

 

[Ketchum]

Fermino, tho

weekend maker for yours truly.I was in such a testy mood at the 70-minute mark.

 

[marinehorn]

Jason Witten is a pro. I miss Tony already.

My favorite player. Great blue-collar man.

 

[HerkieWalls]

Zaire sucks

Agreed but after reading the aggy reports, it sounds like he could walk in and start there. He could walk into a lot of schools and start- I dont get him picking an SEC school that prohibits transfers and Texas who has two young studs on the roster as his choices.

 

[HerkieWalls]

My favorite player. Great blue-collar man.

Gritty, lunch pail type.

 

[Hook 'em Danno]

Great column, Ketch. Lots of feel good but Witten's tribute took the cake for me.

 

[RLong68]

THis says more about the current regime than the QB's on campus, IMO

This.

 

[PaulieD]

Why is Zaire looking at three schools that have potential roadblocks? Surely he can pick a school that has no qb?

I think he's trying to combine a starting job at a high profile university, IMO

 

[Ketchum]

Great column, Ketch. Lots of feel good but Witten's tribute took the cake for me.

Those two have been together for a LONG time. People forget that it was Witten that was with Romo in Cabo that weekend before the Giants game in January of 2008.

 

[Ketchum]

This.

I'm not even sure this point makes a lot of sense.

 

[RLong68]

I'm not even sure this point makes a lot of sense.

Of course you aren't.

 

[Ketchum]

Of course you aren't.

Of course.

I'd love to have you explain it to me. Lay it out for the dumb guy.

 

[Chinook Driver]

I thought about buying the UFC match. Ended up passing and I am glad I did. But I have to say the prelims were fun to watch!

 

[lightthetower0510]

Ketch, I submitted this one late yesterday, but genuinely curious to hear what you think...

B/S: Casey Thompson commits to Texas before the Spring Game and we are happy about nabbing him over our other targets?

He looks like a pretty nice prospect, but so does Rogers, et al.

Thoughts?

 

[Cinco Ranch Horn]

Of course.

I'd love to have you explain it to me. Lay it out for the dumb guy.

To me it is about the current regime having information more on lock down and not letting information get out and having stuff that does get out be more realistic related to expectations rather than expectations and information that is unrealistic. I don't think it is any breaking news that leaks are much harder to come by now than they ever have been in the internet era.

 

[txfight]

The reason why there's no hyperbole is that the quarterbacks haven't yet given a reason for it. Buechele has been solid.

When did Tyronne give reason for it?

Speaking of, has anyone heard anything of his attempted move to TE for the draft? Did UT have a pro day he performed at?

 

[txfight]

True, but I'm talking about the incessant D > H, or H > D.

A>(H+D) and from a personal standpoint A>(I*1000)

 

[moblack82]

If Texas wants more people, quit having it on Easter weekend.

Bama could have it on Christmas Day and they would show up. Have Santa Claus there taking photos at every gate with those stupid hats and it would be the biggest event ever in that state. Folks in Texas just have other things to do.

 

[Anwar Richardson]

- Considering your wife is from Houston, there is no way you could say Dallas is better. Jokes aside, is it too early for the avalanche gif?

- When you said Mike Williams, my first thought was the former USC receiver. Glad I kept reading.

- Zaire will have an interesting decision to make. Doesn't look like he'll be guaranteed a starting spot at Florida or Texas.

- I agree with you. If Texas is successful this year, Connor Williams will not be the only person turning pro after this season. WalterFootball has Malik down as a top 10 pick

- I think you rewatch the spring game twice before next week's column.

 

[TrailsPoppy]

Currently, outside the top 10, but that won't be for long IMO.

Good

 

[Prodigy Rick]

@Ketchum explain Draymond over Kawhi.

 

[Ketchum]

Buy.

I don't see the option that would cause you to pause on wanting his commitment. Hell, I think they need two in this class, anyways.

That's just a dream that Texas fans think every time there's a new coach. Folks did the same thing when Charlie took over.

Herman hates leaks, but that doesn't mean we haven't spoken with people (plural) at all levels that have seen practice, usually on a daily basis.

 

[Ketchum]

When did Tyronne give reason for it?

Speaking of, has anyone heard anything of his attempted move to TE for the draft? Did UT have a pro day he performed at?

a. Tyrone would occasionally cause people to get excited. Hell, the head coach that couldn't remember his name in a deposition was among them last fall.

b. He's probably going to camp with someone. Needs to make a practice squad and could do so, IMO.
