Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (Tom Herman made my ears perk on Saturday...)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
First time we have had a coach that I think will be superior to Bob Stoops and every other Big 12 coach.
Definitely was worth the wait.
- Herman dropped clues for weeks that he really likes this team. Props to him for quantifying what we knew.
- These receivers have the potential to be sick.
- I'm starting to wonder if 8-4 is selling this team short. When you consider Herman hit the ground running at his last two gigs, we might be underestimating him. I'm heading to Vegas next month. Should I place a bet for you?
- Does Strong watch Texas this season and feel like he would have done that if given more time?
- I might take that Texas vs. USC bet. Coaching should help.
- When it comes to the new locker rooms, welcome to the future, Texas
- If you believe Herman when he says this team has 18 Big 12 Championship players, wouldn't you have to believe Collin Johnson could have a 1,000 yard season?
- Nick Saban is viewed as a media monster, but Harbaugh gets a pass? I would probably hate covering either program.
- When it comes to Isaiah Thomas, it's hard to know what a grieving person needs at that moment. When coworkers have a death in the family, sometimes they prefer to bury themselves in work as a distraction. I think it would be worse if Thomas wanted to take off and was told no. By the way, he did score 33 points ...
- Going viral for a urine photo is like being a serious rapper who finally becomes an international star for "Whomp, There It Is." Now I know how Pitbull and Ice Cube feel.

Haven't seen it posted online yet, but it's showing all the time.
Oh, I dunno. It's a fair point to make.
smh. give it a rest already.. even ketch has finally given buechele his props. shane played against the first team defense of every team in the big 12 last season as a true freshman and performed well. ehlinger's numbers might have been a little better, but buechele would still have shown to clearly be qb1. people need to stop fighting it and accept he is the better of the two.
When you say "my El Mahico", what exactly do you mean?
Three-year old twins will take you off the current music scene beat.
Definitely was worth the wait.

I need to check my sugar level because I have been drinking so much koolaid
- Does Strong watch Texas this season and feel like he would have done that if given more time?
Strong did say this was a 10 win team no matter who was coaching
- I might take that Texas vs. USC bet. Coaching should help.
Again, another glass of koolaid.

Bookmarked.
Herman knows everything about QBs, and manipulating the digestion of the first and only look at his offense (to recruits, to the media, to opposing DCs). And THAT is exactly why the 1s played all game against the 2s, including Shane and Sam.
The desired outcome was achieved.
ET ran a sub 4.4 at Pro Day. Gray was not faster than Thomas. As terrific as Gray was, he never had a season like Thomas in '09. It's not a coincidence Thomas has been the far better pro.
We are both pricks. What separates us is that you are also wrong and counterproductive.
Most definitely. Not sure who couldn't see it except for folks selling SB short for months.
And I was at the game that Jerry gray run down bo Jackson from behind and break bo's collarbone. I'd bet his 40 was comparable. Two time all-American and four time pro bowler before he started slowing down. He would have won at least one Thorpe award if it had been around. He and johnnie Johnson started dbu. I love me some ET, so I'd go with a tie personally, but your selling Jerry short if you try to dismiss how f'n good he was.
"uh huh - go Paulie - it's your birthday - uh huh"
FYI, he said Big 12 championship caliber, not All-Big 12.
Sssshhhh. A few on hear thought he did nothing special and that the only thing to notice was the goalkeeping.
He basically missed all of fall camp, which means that the past two weeks were really his first two weeks to be very active as a practice player. Once the season started a year ago, the focus was on the season and not his development.
Jimmy said they could print it in three-inch font, which is usually reserved for war.
It had nothing to do with the fans. It was about conveying his confidence to the team.
You were with Jerry?Stupid glory hole
I will reserve thoughts on what caliber players we have until they have been coached up...
