August 22, 20196 yr Is it too soon to point out the blatant fucking stupidity of NFL scouts and front offices again?
August 22, 20196 yr Poona also was the first (only?) recruit to flip from Louisville when Strong was hired.

Whatever it is, I believe that it is a year less than late round draft picks. (Again, this is based on posts on this board that are loosely lodged in my memory.)

September 23, 20196 yr Bump, is he making any noise this year? Lots of preseason hype and was hoping he'd break out as a regular season beast too...

September 23, 20196 yr Author Poona was injured to start the season, which is why we haven't heard his name as much yet.

September 25, 20196 yr It's almost like the the majority of NFL teams employ simpletons that don't watch game tape or think critically in any way. And that the select few that aren't are far more consistently successful simply by taking advantage of the idiocy of their peers.Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

September 26, 20196 yr Don't know where else I'd put this - he has another Longhorn teammate: Meh, others may disagree but I don’t claim AC as one of ours. I heard an interview with him last year I believe which started out with him saying he’s always ready to talk about “The U” football. Interviewer asked him about “his Texas boys” and AC responded “man, no comment.” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

November 22, 20196 yr How did Poona not do more here? I blame Strong & Herman. He was the big 12 lineman of the year. And Herman touted him constantly before the draft. That was purely an nfl draft gaff.
November 23, 20196 yr he was undrafted due to NFL not being impressed by his body of work at Texas. Dont get me wrong. I was not saying he was bad at all but he wasnt start in the NFL and make impact this fast good.He was undrafted because of his size
November 23, 20196 yr He was undrafted because of his size Ya sorry tj but that’s simply not correct. Bevo is right. It was because of his measurables, not his body of work. It was discussed extensively prior to, during and after the draft not only on this board but by draft analysts generally. The nfl believes in measurables. What’s most shocking is that no one even took a late round flyer on him.

December 16, 20196 yr I appreciate Pete Carroll's Home for Texas Fan Favorites being so good this year

The other DT to do that was Ed Oliver. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
