My fellow Longhorns fans

[MC KAos]

i dont mind the playcalling at all, its a bagillion times better than greg davis, we need to just stick with ash, continue running the ball, and realize that this team is super young at skill positions and drop our expectations this year, we just arent very good yet. ill be happy with 8 or 9 wins, specially if one of them is against a&m.

I don't think it is hard to believe that rumors take on a life of their own especially these days but does not make it fact.

I find it hard to believe a legacy child would leave UT, his name makes him practically unbenchable for the Longhorns, not so if he left for another program.

He can be a legend in Austin even if he never took another snap and just stuck around as the back up. With every loss, there would be a multitude of fans saying they would have won if only McCoy was at the helm. He won't get that anywhere else.

The same thing could have been said about Major Applewhite when he was a frosh.

Applewhite had a live arm for a little guy, also a quick release. The anti Case.

you realize he was benched, right?

It's all over the big recruiting sites. Rivals, scout, 247, etc. Hard to believe it's nothing more than a rumor gven that Texas insiders are giving it so much attention.

McCoy and Darius White are both apparently very unhappy right now.

he thinks he should be starting because he's a McCoy. That's his attitude. Not a big secret.

McCoy has not done anything to make me think he can't do the job regardless of his name. I do think the coaches feel Ash has more of an upside but in the end it will not come down to physical ability but mental ability. Much like the situation with Chris Simms and Major Applewhite. No doubt Simms had the better physical traits but Applewhite made plays.

I'm not going to say Ash will be the next Simms bit to early to know how this kid will progress but I'm not going to knock McCoy

McCoy has a classic case of noodle arm, anything over 20 yards is an absolute duck. He also doesnt have the incredible accuracy his brother had.

You can be a decent college QB without a strong arm, but only if you have great accuracy or run a 4.4 in a spread option attack. Neither applies to Case.

No I actually wasn't aware, but his name still makes him indespensible, if you can give Gilbert that much leash you'll definitely give it to McCoy.

Like the player named Simms, the family ties have pull.

what happened on that possession? I'm sick as a dog and missed it going to the restroom, forgot to pause the tv and didn't do back and see it.

I think a big problem that nobody seems to notice is our receivers can't get open against a team not named Rice/BYU etc. Besides the Oline can't block and QB's can't throw problem.

My bad. Didn't see your question as the Rangers game came on. But after the safety, Texas pass the ball twice and on third diwn Ash was sacked and they had to punt. There was still 11 minutes to go in the game and only down 12.
