October 24, 20232 yr I’m optimistic about Maalik and the next few games, but not because of any Spring Game footage. Those passes were thrown against the backups on a pass defense that currently ranks 62nd in the country. You can’t infer a damned thing from that.

Murphy was throwing to backups too… If not the spring game, what gives you confidence? Blind hope? His 4 of 8 for 47 career passing numbers? BDE?

Our back up receivers are better than our starting DBs. And yes, blind hope pretty much. Nobody knows what to expect and anyone who claims to is just manufacturing some shit to believe. Nothing wrong with that, but for me it’s just general optimism not based on much.
October 24, 20232 yr I hold out hope that we will roll out a backup QB who doesn't look like he's attempting his first pass since peewee football. Every other program has a walk on QB come in and throw for 400 yards in their first game. Why not us? I know we ain't playing our own defense but still.

I can understand saying this based on this result. But, college football isn’t static. ISU also beat Oklahoma State, which now people are saying “hold up, could they beat ou and get to the title game?” But they also lost to Iowa. They have improved and we are playing in Ames where we have lost there 3 of the last 4 times. Combine that with how ISU could be 5-2 or 6-1 in conference play by the time our game arrives along with the fact that it will be the last time Texas plays in Ames in most likely forever, that place will be rocking. People overlooking this game just based on their loss to Ohio are not counting other variables that will make this game tougher than we think. Texas beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa. Are we the same team as then or nah?

I don't remember which board it was on but about 20 years ago somebody started a thread titled something to the effect how old are you guys anyway. I couldn't believe how much action it got, it was interesting.

October 24, 20232 yr That KSU dude came off the bench and ripped Tech for 5 TDs. Unbelievable talent evaluation thereYes unlivable eval on the #1 in state, top-10 national QB, and national top 100 composite prospect. Real diamond in the rough there. From Horns247: “The most impressive fact about Maalik Murphy to me is that he was first offered by three different offensive coordinators at Texas,” Roach said. “Tim Beck made him the first QB offer in the 2022 class, and Mike Yurcich re-offered as soon as he was hired at Texas. When Steve Sarkisian took over, Murphy was once again a priority target for the Longhorns. Though they once had a commitment from Quinn Ewers and were working to flip him while he was pledged to Ohio State, it was clear that Murphy possessed tools that each coach loved. “One, I think he loves the culture of Texas, the community, you know, the people, everything around it,” Hernandez said of what kept Murphy in Austin. “He’s been excited to be there. He’s kind of changed the way he is. I was there this summer and he picked me up in his car. He was just playing nothing but country music the entire time. He said it’s all he listens to. He was like I love it. He could see I loved it. We’ve been sending each other songs. He’s just really bought in. He really loves it there. Again, the personalty that Maalik has, he’s not one to shy away from competition. There were a lot of opportunities, even coming out of high school going into college, where probably the path seemed smoother to be QB1. He said this program checks the boxes for me and I’m not scared to compete and I’m not going anywhere. He’s a fighter.” Hard to imagine Murphy in Herman’s offense

October 25, 20232 yr Times like there are why I was so disappointed in our Wyoming game where we should have run up the first half score to get Maalik some live game snaps. I think the kid has shown he has talent, and the real question now is how will he handle the pressure? Both emotionally and from the defense. I also wonder if we hamstring him by conservative and predictable play calling. I understand some conservatism, but this offense doesn't work if you make too many conservative calls. I am rooting like crazy for the kid, because I am always rooting for any kid that comes in under a microscope of pressure. These are the opportunities that every backup dreams of, so it's up to Maalik to take advantage and plant his own flag. Hell I hope the kid does so well it makes getting Ewers healthy much less of an issue. Hope he can take advantage of the opportunity in front of him and become "a Longhorn Legend!"

Wyoming is 5-2 with their only losses coming from us and a 7-0 Air Force team. They're a good quality opponent.

If his confidence is rewarded early against BYU, I'll feel much better about K-State, TCU, and Iowa State. Hopefully they give him plenty of blitz beaters though, he'll get in trouble with disguised coverages if he determines his targets pre-snap too often.

I am guessing Sark reverts to more of a run game and play action shots type of offense. Only worry vs BYU is a fumble. They cause a lot turnovers and he brings that ball down to his hip.
