Those two don’t have much of a problem matching or exceeding whatever we can do. FWIW, I have the same concern about Malakai Lee. I’m glad we decided we want Kreul. If he grows a little bit then you’ve really got something. If not then he can transfer to Temple and terrorize the AAC. Also, maybe y’all could shut the fuck up with the movie horseshit for 5 seconds while we have a little nugget to discuss?  If we flip Lee, it won't be because of NIL. There's a decent chance Moore is fired after this year if they can't put together an offense that can score more than 10 points.
July 29Jul 29 I like the cut of your jib. But Moore has to like REALLY shit the bed to get canned, right? I think the way they finished last year bought him some goodwill.I’m not sure what the Larry Ellison ROI ratio calculations will be but I would think that the amount of money being invested in the roster shortens the leash on Moore a bit. I doubt they tolerate mediocrity very long with the payroll they’re apparently heading toward.

Of course, we bungled said chance after Kliff Kingsbury tore Bull Reese and our beleaguered defense apart in Lubbock. A&M fans were frothing at the mouth about how great Reggie McNeal was after the A&M game, only for blOU to get revenge next year to the tune of 77-0.

On the other side of the spectrum was watching Something About Mary with no idea of the greatness I was about to witness. Good times. Best jobs I ever had were working at movie theaters.  Dobie Theater in the 80s was pure greatness. There was a terrific video rental shop in there, too. There was an arcade/pool table place in the basement. I remember some guys regularly breaking out some kind of massive table top game with intricately painted figurines. Turns out it was Warhammer 40k. I'd ask them about the lore of the world and by the end of the conversation my head was completely spinning. Movies that did well played a lot longer in the theaters back then. We had Nightmare on Elm Street at our theater for over a year, and it was still making money at the end of the run. Who would think that having a proprietary lock on content would be good for business? In any case, if there were any ladies from mid teens to early 20s that went in to see the movie, I would go in at critical moments with a pair of hot dog tongs and start clicking them together. It never failed to scare the living crap out of them. Maybe it's been mentioned before, but the tunnel scene in the original Willie Wonka is a classic. Wrath of Khan is almost universally considered the best Star Trek movie. A lot of great scenes in there, from the beginning where Kirk admits he rigged the computer simulation designed to help future officers deal with defeat so he wouldn't have to, the tremendous overacting from both Shatner and Montalban, the Master and Commander type cat and mouse fight between the two, and Spock's death because he didn't want to keep playing the character. How did that work out for you, Nimoy? But for me the signature scene in that movie was sticking that slug in the ear of Chekov so he lost the function of his free will. The way it swirled around to enter his brain through his ear was nightmare fuel. Also, Marathon Man. "Is it safe? Is it safe?" I think the book handles the scene even better, but it's hard to beat Laurence Olivier and Dustin Hoffman on screen together playing such a horrific scene. The scene in Clockwork Orange where they pry his eyes open so he can't look away from the screen, can't even blink. Tons of others, but those are some good ones. Â

July 29Jul 29 Also Batts Auditorium. Hogg was the most uncomfortable theater around. There were screenings in Jester, too. It was great to see movies on the big screen for cheap. The best movie bang for the buck I got was one year when I stayed for the summer. There was a series called The Thirties: Good Times, Hard Times. I think it was fifteen dollars to see two double features a week. It wasn't on that plan, but I saw Casablanca for the first time on campus. Maybe Batts. Chillingly good. If I were rich, I'd buy a theater for screening great old movies. Don't care if I lose money. The experience is everything. But I enthuse.
July 29Jul 29 We all know RJ Young is a douchefart, but he did say something nice about Texas and Derrick Cooper. He said when watching his film he reminds him of Eric Dickerson, and Adrian Peterson, as he looks for inflict violence and pain to anyone in his way. He of course admitted to get under Texas fans skins that he also has some Demarco Murray in him (I'm not sure how that would get under our skins since Murray was a hell of a good college and pro RB). Edit: He said Texas is getting a dominant RB and we're not going to slow down from stacking talent year after year and get better year after year. He made it abundantly clear that Sark will always have a 1k RB, and even used Wisner as an example. He also mentioned that we haven't had a punishing RB since Foreman, but he listed all the great RB'S he's produced (Bijan, Brooks, Wisner, Najee Harris, etc). Edited July 29Jul 29 by William Bludworth
