A lot of Bravado and some early success and then poof....

August 24, 20232 yr Popular Post Few team notes from IT Spoiler With just 9 days until Texas takes on the Rice Owls in the season opener we’ll get the latest on position battles, quarterback Quinn Ewers, and the team’s practice schedule. Return to in-season schedule In anticipation of game week next week, the program has returned to its normal in-season practice schedule. Monday is for corrections from the previous week where teaching is a primary focus. The offense will work on looks it wants to improve with the defense trying to foil them, then they’ll change roles. That’s followed by ‘Bloody Tuesday’. It lives up to its name with physicality on the agenda. The players will be in full pads going pretty much full speed. Wednesday is a more muted version of that, though it’s still pretty physical. Thursday is back to being more tame in anticipation of having the players better rested for the upcoming game. Position Battles Just when I thought battles were pretty much decided, it sounds like Gavin Holmes is making a spirited push to start opposite Ryan Watts. Holmes has tightened up the race with Terrance Brooks, the expected starter at field cornerback. Holmes is known to be very sticky in coverage, even against UT’s quality receiving corp. To our knowledge, Brooks has done nothing wrong. It’ll be interesting to see whose name is atop the chart, but both will play quite a bit either way. Holmes is peaking. I’m expecting Malik Muhammad to backup Watts, at least to start the season. He’s physical enough for the position but more smooth in coverage than Watts. It’ll be interesting to see how much the coaches rotate. Muhammad has shown he’s ready to play. Per our sources it appears set for David Gbenda and Ethan Burke to start at Will/Dime linebacker and Buck outside linebacker respectively. Gbenda is “mostly” assignment sound and Burke has done better against the run of late. At right guard, we expect DJ Campbell to start, though Cole Hutson will also play. Quinn Ewers “Quinn has looked really sharp this week, he’s been connecting deep.” The second-year Texas starter is in the middle of what is probably his best week of practice yet. That stands to reason as he continually improves, but still great to hear. He’s in much better rhythm with his receivers than last year. Sources believe he’s poised for a big year.

August 24, 20232 yr Damn, aggy infected the rest of the big 12 with the little brother syndrome and then bailed. Thankfully, the SEC has programs that see aggy for who they are and laughs.They've successfully convinced some of the more smooth brained SEC fans that we are as aggy sees us it seems.At least from things on SECrant
August 24, 20232 yr I have never rooted for OU in anything but I will make an exception this season against all Big12 opponents in every sport, game or competition. I hope all conference championships are played by Texas and OU this year in every fucking sport. I don't care if its fucking checkers.

Gbenda’s been bad his entire time here, and I’m not expecting a Gaskamp from him this year. Seems like the staff is hoping and praying he can rise to serviceable while they get Hill up to speed. We also have a ton of good DBs while being very thin at LB, so I could see us using more dime and playing Guilbeau in place of a second linebacker against spread teams.

That stands to reason as he continually improves, but still great to hear. He’s in much better rhythm with his receivers than last year. Sources believe he’s poised for a big year. Hitting the deep ball is the key for Quinn and Sark to succeed. Ewers best three games last year (Bama, OU, UW) were when was hitting deep balls and drawing PIs on deep passes. His stat line against UW would’ve been elite if not for Worthy having an all time terrible game. Worthy was probably our best deep threat last year, and he might be only our fourth best deep threat this year. Having Mitchell, Neyor, and Cook should really help increase our success in deep balls, and hopefully our interior OL can hold up better in pass pro to let more of those connect. If our offense can hit the deep ball, then it will be a top 10 O in the country pretty easily.

I just have a hard time believing that the staff is depending on GBenda to be a fixture in the line up. I was thinking the 3 of them are played situationally. Hill gettigng time early and that will only increase over time. The reported CB depth gives PK a lot of options. You could change rotations based on opponent (More Watts/Brooks vs Run teams. More Holmes vs Passing teams). I think the Dime could be interesting, even if we havent seen it much from PK (perhaps due to DB talent the 1st 2 years). If the reports are correct, Watts maybe the weakest cover CB (not saying he is bad). He is an absolute monster vs the run as a CB. Leaves 2 of Brooks/Holmes/Muhammed outside and Barron/Watts on the slots (vs 4 wide).
