Apparently the Duke QB has a long standing relationship with the Manning brothers from participating in their passing camps. Peyton gave a glowing recommendation of the dude and from all accounts that I have read, the GM for the Giants took Peyton's word as gospel and that is why they went with him. Also, Haskins' father (who is also operating as his agent; and not an actual agent) has been less than easy to deal with in terms of teams wanting information. May have contributed to his "fall"
Keep in mind, for Murray, or anyone going to the NFL. First and foremost, it’s all about the money. Murray will be set for life. If he doesn’t turn out to be all world in the NFL, the only people who will care are us armchair qb’s. He certainly won’t. I do however, believe that he has as good a chance as any to be successful if he can avoid injury.
I think Haskins has a chance to be a really good qb
True, he has all the talent to be a great one but God left his legs kinda short for an nfl qb. I think he is listed as 5'10 which puts his eye level around 5'6ish. Gonna be a blind spot behind those 6'4 linemen. Ya never know...
Dude---- there's trying and then there's "try hard". You're being a try hard.
Stranger things have happened, don’t forget you laughed me off when I proclaimed Murray had won the Heisman after the Big 12 CCG. 2 Consecutive Heismans, 2 consecutive No. 1 picks. At this point it’s not luck, it’s a pattern, just saying.......
Yup. The dogma that Texas is loaded with talent, great recruiting, should be able to just “out talent” almost everyone on their schedule is just not true and hasn’t been for several years.

Who cares what they think. If we take care of business on the field, all will be good.
Man, Wasatch, I don’t think we can blame the Big 12 on our own incompetence. Herman is fixing the culture. He just needs time. I have certain worries about Beck and his lack of any innovation or originality on offense, but we will know this fall what he can do with experienced players in his system.
Little if any whatsoever to do with conference. It’s all self inflicted. As of now Herman’s first recruiting class just finished their freshmen season or redshirted. We’ll have to wait a few years to see what happens. The 2014-2017 recruiting classes were all decimated.
