Texas football schedule, roster, recruiting and what to watch in 2018

USC lost a key defender

Best wishes to the young man, hope he recovers fully.

Nevertheless, there will be no mercy on the remaining Trojans.

Walk up to the line of scrimmage.
Knock people over.
Run off tackle.
Get first downs.
Win jewelry.
Go to class.
Don't hit women.
No guns.

It ain't rocket science. Coaching and talent have been winning doing this for a century. Offense's like Cougar High's Air Raid (still glad they scored 95 on SMU), maybe fun to watch, but no one has ever won a big game at any level with it.

Fixed it for you. All the above things have to do with college football. I'd get rid of the last one as well but it is college and has classes.​

Regarding the QB debate, I woke up , hit this web site not fully awake/- read the posts and for a minute what year is it??... oh yeah , this is Texas and the third string (QB/RB) is always better and confirmed I am in 2018.
Could have substited McCoy, Applewhite, Simms, VY, McEarchen (sp- dont care Taps) .
I reckon next August, we will be debating again on how the coaches have it all wrong.

As far back as I can remember about our fans wanting the backup QB /RB... in 1966 when QB "Super" Bill Bradley was struggling in a game, some of our fans wanted his backup Andy White to replace him!

Nevertheless, BEAT THE HELL OUTTA THE TROJANS!

I know it isn't good enough and taking too long, but the QB drought is about to end. Out of the group of Buechele, Ehlinger, Rising, Thompson, and Johnson...I believe one will emerge as the next truly solid if not great UT QB, and the timing will be perfect. I know this is a highly speculative post...but one that is in agreement with many who are more qualified than I to speculate. I'll bet that Ehlinger and/or Buechele improve and keep us afloat/servicable, Rising or Thompson provide some upgrade, and then Johnson is the man. Hope I'm wrong and someone else becomes the man before RJ...or I'm wrong and RJ is so good he takes over before Rising or Thompson can establish - doubtful but possible.
On Herb Hand....We will see, but so far I view him as a significant upgrade and key addition at an aspect of the program that has been in shambles.
I also believe we will begin to see stars or semi-stars emerge at WR and RB positions.
Play-calling and control of offensive schemes is a huge key for us. If the players aren't confident in the plan, it will continue to show on the field. This is of the utmost importance.
We have such an abundance of talent in the defensive backfield, hard to see us not doing well there...though the Big 12 is a hard road.
Linebacker depth is a concern and, while we have some rising talent on the DL and Nelson entrenched as a potential lynchpin, we will need to prove we can get the push in the middle and successfully pressure quarterbacks from both inside and the outside.
Orlando will keep doing Orlando things.
Just my 50cent

Couldn't decide where to put this. Some pretty good takes by the 247 guys on risers and fallers in camp...

Zucker - I'll stick with my original list.
