Why I’m An Optimist

Up until the latter half of 2004, I was a pessimist. Our teams never showed direction, our players never developed, and any team with good coaching seems to negate our talent advantages with ease. It peaked with the Washington St. Holiday Bowl, a game that should’ve ended Greg Davis’ career. It remains, to this day, […]

Liveblogging A Recording Of The Spring Game: Second Half

And we’re back.

Mack Brown’s Whiff All-Stars

The loss of Russell Shepard got me a-wonderin’ about how good a team full of guys that rejected us (or vice versa) would be. So, I’ve done my best to make a list. Just imagine how good the team of OU or A&M misses would be. Epic.

Practice Report 2/23

The morning started out with my walking up the ramp to the Angels, with the intention of scoring a roster. I walked up, put my game face on, and the lady stared right through me like I wasn’t even there. I did not get a roster.
Bitches.
Anyway, I made due. The first hour was worthless in […]

Spring Practice Position Battles

In which we discuss some legitimate issues with which the coaching staff must deal.

Looking ahead to the 2008 Football Season?

Here’s a look at the Horns lineup.
Just my projections–happy to have any suggestions/corrections. I assume Muschamp will dramatically shake things up, but I’m basing this on last year’s depth-chart, the assumption that no one else commits, our verbals all sign LOI’s, older folks don’t get beat out, everyone heals up beautifully, no one changes […]

Texas Football: Liveblogging Texas/Kansas State

Pre-game
Our Big 12 Opener.
A statement game.
The statement being either: We Can Beat A Team Headed To The Kwanza Bowl or Please Shoot Me In The Face.
I read in Franchione’s private newsletter that Josh Freeman is dating Kate Olsen. A lot in common.
Weather.com says that the high today will be around 89 degrees […]

Texas Football: The Rice Post-Mortem

The Rice game tantalized, Kansas St will be telling; OU will tell all.
58-14 tells the tale, so I’m not going to dwell on the play of our starters too much. It was dominant. Much of this review is about what the future holds: for our Big 12 opener, against OU, this […]

Preview of the Longhorn Defense

2007 Longhorn Defense… What to Expect? The Unexpected
Defense wins championships. My 6th grade PE teacher taught me that. He also taught us that if you wear early 80’s style running shorts during the hurdler’s stretch, people could see your junk. So, in honor of Coach Papa, and the fact Colt […]

Keys to the Week: Arkansas St.

Look alive ladies, it’s cotton-pickin’ football season! HenryJames! Get that jock out’chyer mouth and give it back to Scipio! You two can grab-ass after practice! We got new third string kickoff cover teams! Chooky, listen up, this means you!
It’s cow-tippin’ football season! Listen up! The grass is cut, my ass is red, and y’all […]
