Thinking about that note about the DBs and the second team. That’s something like Black and Roberson at corner, Mack at star, and Williams and JJR at safety. We could roll that out as our starters and be just fine. Insane depth there.

Everybody Wants Some is probably his best movie. It’s a lighthearted Linklater movie and nostalgic about being Texas college life in the 80’s. So pretty much perfect for all the olds on this board.

You mean Dazed and Confused 2?

That movie was decent (but not nearly as good as D&C).

Hitman is the best of his that I’ve seen. I also liked Maverick and Twisters, but Maverick isn’t his movie and Twisters, I’m sure, isn’t liked by snobs. 

Everybody Wants Some viewed as you described for me, which was I thought it sucked. Some of us aren’t as old and worked a fuckton through college. That movie looked like it was made for a very niche group of aging fratboys and was outright boring from beginning to end.

Two transfers signed with Texas this winter yet never made it to spring ball: defensive tackle Travis Shaw and linebacker/edge Brad Spence.

Both had lingering injuries from the previous season. Both had surgeries this off-season.

Based on what I have been told from early camp feedback, both will be very key contributors to this year’s defense.

**

I am told that Shaw has been one of the better defensive tackles so far this training camp and is definitely expected to find his way into the lineup.

Shaw, who is all of 6-foot-5, 342 pounds, is one of the team’s largest players and will be a key player against opponents like Florida who focus heavily on the inside run game.

Shaw has had a very promising training camp so far. While we don’t know exactly what the DT rotation will be this season, Shaw is already penciled in as a significant part of it by the staff.

**

As for Spence, he fills a major need, perhaps a need that was under-appreciated this off-season.

After all, Texas feels like they have very good depth at the Jack position for this season, with the likes of Ethan Burke, Colton Vasek, Zina Umeozulu, Lance Jackson and even Justus Terry. But behind Colin Simmons on the other side, the depth is less appealing, especially given Trey Moore’s move to linebacker. That’s where Spence’s health and presence is so undervalued headed into 2025.

Here’s an interesting note about his health:

I’m told prior to Spence’s arrival at Texas, it was not known he would need surgery. He entered Texas and during his initial athletic testing, he could only jump about 20 inches off the ground before he started feeling pain. That issue apparently had gone on for multiple years at Arkansas so it hadn’t necessarily hurt his play on the field.

The Texas medical staff looked into it further and that’s when it was decided Spence needed surgery. 

Regardless of how we ended where we are today, the bottom line is that Spence has been one of the team’s more energetic and hard-working players this summer and fall. He has very much been a “fit” into the culture that Steve Sarkisian wants.

Expect Spence to get 25-30 snaps a game as Simmons’ primary back-up this fall. Like Simmons, Spence provides elite speed off the edge.

Both Shaw and Spence have not disappointed the Texas staff despite both requiring off-season surgery.

**

One small note:

I’m hearing Texas is pleased with placekicker Mason Shipley. No, this is a massive note, Bobby.

**

I’ll have a larger update on all of the transfer portal guys and where they are fitting later today.

**

The team is off today. They resume practice on Thursday morning.

Hook’Em!

  • Great news on Shaw and Spence's roles post recovery. Additionally, it appears that people in Arkansas might be as dumb as we thought. 
  • Also, apparently Shipley is impressing. Despite Bobby's nonchalant mention of it, it's certainly gruntling. 
  • No practice today - it resumes Thursday.

Oh thank God. I regret the part I've played in this Glen Powel tangent. 

Agreed about Shaw. That dude has a very Alfred Collins-esque career where the talent and physical attributes were obviously there, but he never really did anything with them. If Baker is unlocking that potential then we are in great shape at DT in light of how the other transfers + January are doing. 

Fucking Arkansas. Can their medical staff have really missed that dude needed surgery? That seems shockingly incompetent, even for the pigs. 

One thing Bobby mentioned last night that I didn't see in his practice report - Arch is staying late with a group to run the offense even after the coaches leave. That has real "If you want to beat Ohio State, meet me here every night at 7 p.m." energy. I know we've heard a lot about Arch during camp, but it doesn't seem like he's been the focus. Even when IT/OTF are talking about the QBs, they're mostly talking about the battle for QB2. I assume no news is good news, and I love hearing about Arch's leadership. Ewers was great, but he never struck me as a "lead from the front" kind of QB. I think Texas is better when the guy under center shows people the way.

Advertising Everybody Wants Some as a comedy follow-up to Dazed killed it. EWS is a great movie, but it's not really a straight-up comedy. Way more ponderous. 

I'm cautiously optimistic about the Running Man remake.

I was told I was a pessimist and a doomer for worrying about Cojoe's injury and our O-line depth. Surprise surprise, Burton is worried as well.

And LOL at the notion that the Doak Walker Award watch list means anything. Le'Veon Moss and Reuben Owens are on it as well, I guess that means A&M has a stacked RB room? https://ncfaa.org/awards/doak-walker-award

Goosby's health was easily top 5 on the roster, prior to this. It is even more important now. You lose 2 people from any group, and it becomes a problem. This is not special to the tackle position. RT is a spot that Texas has some answers. Not sure that can be said for LT. Flood as recruited a decent amount of OG/RT types. Assuming Goosby performs as expected (going off memory, but I believe he had ~315 snaps without giving up a single QB hit), Texas can leave him on an island and help the RT. Injuries are never good, but I can think of at least 20 others that would have had more impact on the season.

Well, you're half right. I am new here. Some of ya'll might remember me from BC or BON 10+ years ago. But I'm also a coward. I only made an account because I'm in a c2c fantasy league and I took Daylan McCutcheon probably really early and I came here to ask if he's still the WR3/4. But I chickened out and decided to defend a forgotten Linklater movie I saw once on a plane instead. Place seems all right, though. Except that one guy.

Saying you went to high school in Austin makes as a Westwood graduate makes much more sense than Westwood being a part of RRISD instead of AISD, or even LISD given its proximity to Cedar Park.

Aw, shit. Here we go again with geography tangents.

Fwiw, almost every team has players that do this, even in high school.
