He told Suzanne Halliburton of the Statesman that he is coming back.
“I’m not going anywhere,” McCoy said.
He says he won’t initiate an evaluation for the NFL underclassmen committee, but if the Texas staff does for information purposes he won’t try to stop them. Some wiggle room there, but I doubt there’s anything to worry about. You can take McCoy at his word.
After this semester, McCoy will lack twelve hours for his degree.

I was more or less satisfied with the running game. Vondrell looked good apart from the fumbles. He only averaged 4.7 yds/carry, but while watching the game it seemed he did well. There were a few low/no gains, but none that I remember were negative. There were 2 things I think

Watching CU-CSU now. Before that, it was Ole Miss and Memphis. Don’t believe the final box score, Ole Miss looked like shit all day until the fourth quarter when Memphis self-destructed. Even that half-time lead was thanks to a pick six. Jevan Snead is playing like last year as a fluke and all those high

You gotta love NateHeupel – he says:

I think that I was most excited about the poise Gabbert showed. He stood in the pocket and took some shots and delivered some great balls. I also was happy to see a little explosiveness from the receivers.

Is UT’s schedule as embarrasing as losing to a bunch of slow, white Mormons from Utah?
No worries though. I’m sure our far inferior front 7 will be no match against your beastly o-line. I mean it’s not like Texas is going to roll out athletes the likes of that BYU squad.

also GOOD:
Kenny Vaccaro. He tied Muck for the team lead in tackles with 6 and blew shit up all night on kick coverage. Seemed like he was either knocking wedge blockers back into the returner or making the tackle himself every time down.

If the staff can bench Jamal freaking Charles for a few fumbles when he was clearly a difference maker and the best RB on the team, I don’t know why McGee should get any more chances. He has had his opportunities and he is what he is in this system, a 4.0 ypc runner.

I went to the Uga Osu game and the final score really doesn’t tell the tale. Georgia qb had the flu and traveled seperate from the team. He was clearly not 100 percent, which makes my next point all the more strange. After the first quarter Uga inexplicably went away from a working rushing attack,

Staying in school worked out well for Leinart.

i dont put one iota of blame on Bradford, for staying or getting pummeled into the turf.
simple fact: the OU o-line is awful, even more so than any of us thought they would be.
Crawford got to Sam just as he did, what, FIVE plays earlier, and got to Tom Landry Jones THREE plays later.

Dumbass should have gone pro. That line sucks. Not sure why he believed Stoops’ bs that the line would be okay.
Oh, and their receivers suck almost as bad as their line. Rod Babers’ dad clearly fucked Poop Tennell’s mom.

As a matter of fact I took said “History of R&R” back in the Fall of ‘84. Don’t know what it is now, but it wasn’t the blow-off most think.
Had to write three (or maybe four, memory fails) 15-20 page papers, w/a few pop-quizzes and the usual three major tests thrown in, plus a final. And it was a real final that covered the entire semester.
It wasn’t nuclear physics by any stretch but if you didn’t keep up you’d flunk. And the teacher who taught it (a music Ph.D student) would definitely flunk you if you didn’t show up or do your part. He had a Nikki’s Pizza-sized chip on his shoulder re: the class’ blow-off stereotype.
All in all, one of the best classes I took at The University.

“M 427K - Differential Equations was my hardest class…”
One of my greatest dork accomplishments in undergrad was M 427K. I had a buddy that was in another class taught by a different teacher, and they were always a few chapters ahead of us. So my buddy taught me the easy stuff, I learned it to teach him the more advanced stuff, and never had to go to class.
I ended up with the highest grade in the class…not bad for a white boy from the Houston Independent School District.
Alright, I’ll now go back to playing with myself in the corner. Oh yeah, fuck OU.
