Evolving....or regressing:) I hope he's correct about having a major impact. That would be huge for this defense.

Texas Football must have the same scouting report on Murray. They have him First Team "All State of Texas." By the way, we had more members on the first team (3) offense than any other school.

This!

Same for me at Wal-Mart about half an hour ago.

Anyone know if these exist? I found a website that has to have every school...except North Texas. Thanks for any help.

Good stuff. Thanks for posting.

Your glass always seems to a little bit less than half full...but I'm thinking that's just your schtick.

Only thing wrong with A&M and Wisconsin is that they are body bag games. I honestly don't mind one of those every few years, so the A&M and Wisconsin really aren't that bad. Some would say A&M and Wisc. are no different than Ark., Missouri, Cal, and TT and I couldn't really make a good argument against that logic. I just like our chances against those other P5's than against A&M and Wisc. ACU isn't terrible either. I just can't get too excited about playing a lower level team. You make a good point about them possibly bringing a decent crowd because of our proximity to Abilene, but I have no idea how well they travel.

Slim and None...and Slim is headed to the door.

Like: Cal, Arkansas, Missouri, Memphis, SMU, Houston Texas Tech, Wyoming, Army Dislike: ACU, Liberty, Houston Baptist, A&M, Wisconsin Meh: SFA, South Alabama Overall: Like it. Don't have a real problem with any of my "dislikes" , just being nitpicky.

Given our history, I'd normally be ecstatic if we're 2-2 when the calendar hits October, but this year I'll be a little disappointed.

I'd love to see their actual tournament history. I feel like they either lose in the 1st round or go to the Final Four. Obviously not true, but it sure seems like they are feast or famine more than any other team.

My son started in 4th grade, which was a year sooner than I planned to let him start. I was a little hesitant about him playing , but as it worked out, there's not a lot of hard hitting going on in 4th/5th grade. That being said, the size difference between kids can be pretty significant at that age. One of my son's friend who weighed about 60lbs was tackled by a kid who weighed about 160 and broke his femur. Freak deal, but just snapped it. I was the first one out to help him and it's a moment I'll never forget...and it probably colors my opinion. Honestly, I would probably be okay with no tackle until 7th grade. To add another level to the discussion, what effect would that have on high school football? I'm thinking the playing field would be leveled somewhat if everyone started in the 7th grade.

End of discussion.

I said this after the season and the downvote button on my post quit working due to overuse. Haha.

I'm looking at the rankings and I'm seeing many/most teams grade reflects their record vs. expectations. 9 wins from a team that was expected to win about 6 games probably deserves an "A-." I get what your saying about this being a "6-7 win team," but I think that should just temper expectations for next year. I don't think it should degrade from this year because on the scoreboard we won 9 games. The law of averages says we shouldn't have won all the close games that we won, but we did win them this year.

Probably a big reason why they were given an A- instead of a B or B-.

You could obviously make some arguments here and there, but overall very nicely done.

I could be mistaken here, but one of those years he was down to the 3rd string QB fairly early in the season. Very few teams will win with their 3rd string QB.

Not a single one out of all 1,000 of them? That's crazy talk.

Old or New???

Great question. I wouldn't take him over SL as head coach, but I might take him over GH as OC. I'm all about high character people, but that offense might make me loosen my stance a little bit.

I think he's trying to be a (p)rick and I must say, he's doing a great job.

That's awesome!
