Thomas better get his shit together. So much was riding on this season and he drops a game to Maryland. If we go on a losing streak he risks losing the fan base and our recruiting class.
I don’t think money is the catalyst but you’d think a program like Texas would put more effort into being an elite football team. Maybe an extra defensive analyst would have tipped Orlando to prepare for a fucking onslaught of jet sweeps.
Maryland has paid analysts on both sides of the ball that assist the main staff with scouting and game planning. Texas does not. A&M has never been about shit and probably never will, but they sure as hell are giving it everything they have literally, to win ball games. When is Texas going to start functioning like they want to be an elite football program? We finally were able to obtain some quality control coaches but that’s after our previous coach was sent packing. The jury is still out on Herman but it’s no secret we settled on him quickly in fear he’d go to LSU and we’d face criticism for another long coaching search. Our OC is mediocre at best, why didn’t we go get the best guy available in the off season? We don’t have the winning attitude. UT is the most profitable program in collegiate sports yet we are outspent by 22 other programs. This isn’t money ball bitch. Can we please withdraw some cash from the burnt orange Vatican to attempt to win championships again?
JT is one weird looking 5* QB. He’s built like a middle aged man. His running ability is above average, but it looks very uncoordinated. Not overly athletic. Arm is pretty good. I don’t see any reason we shouldn’t shut his ass down and permanently damage his confidence as a collegiate QB.
