  • I'm sure Tom would have had no problem with him transferring to OU. Definitely wouldn't have blocked it.

  • Yes because a safety is of the same importance as a quarterback who knows your offensive playbook and who you might play multiple times.

Cant be accurate.  I don't see a single Aggy QB on there.

So this is pretty cool, he now has 403 completed passes at each school...makes for some interesting comparisons.

What's also interesting is comparing those stats to Sam Ehlinger's stats.  They have practically the same stats.

Sam's Stats:

Shane has attempted 14 more passes, completed 8 more, thrown for 97 more yards. 

odd that they would end up so close.

We Would’ve been better off opening up the offense while he was here and letting him air it out with our receivers. Sucks he never got a chance by getting thrown into the fire his freshman year, having an awful line and never given a chance by Herman since Sam is his wonderboy. Shane>Sam. He’ll be drafted higher and have a longer NFL career imo. But what do i know

You know absolutely nothing. These guys aren’t close. Sam is substantially better. 

Shane throws a better deep ball, has better touch on his passes and hits the passes over the middle in stride with the receiver. Can you tell me what Sam does better? Other than stumble upfield for 3-5 yards, he misses a lot of passes that he should be hitting by now. I genuinely want to know in your opinion

Sam is more evasive and has better pocket presence - although Shane has come a long way in those areas. Shane has just as good of an arm, better touch and better ball placement - and has turned into a pretty scrappy runner to boot. 

They project pretty similarly at the next level with a different set of pros and cons. I think Shane actually has a higher NFL ceiling, but Sam probably has the more surefire floor.

I just saw the 4th quarter.  Shane didn't look good, but the play calling was really bad.

riley has been a step down from lashlee in that regard.

SMU quarterback Shane Buechele elects to skip potential extra year of eligibility, enter NFL draft 

SMU quarterback Shane Buechele is headed to the NFL draft, he announced Friday night.

Buechele is a fifth-year senior but could have used the NCAA's blanket waiver that allows all football players to retain their eligibility after the 2020 season.

He started the past two seasons at SMU, eclipsing 3,000 pass yards in each campaign. The Texas transfer recorded 7,024 pass yards and 57 touchdowns with 16 interceptions in two seasons under Mustangs coach Sonny Dykes.

SMU went 7-3 this season but withdrew from the Tropical Smoothie Frisco Bowl earlier this week because of COVID-19 issues. The bowl game ended up being canceled.

Buechele started all 12 games as a true freshman at Texas in 2016, setting a team freshman record with 2,958 pass yards, as well as 21 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He started seven games as a sophomore in 2017 before losing the top job to Sam Ehlinger. Buechele played behind Ehlinger in 2018 and appeared in two games before transferring to SMU.

In the era of open market transfers, Shane did everything right.

I was at the 2018 Baylor game when Sam was knocked out of the game and Shane came in prepared and played well enough to win a game we easily could've lost.

By all accounts he still keeps up with Sam frequently and has no negative feelings about his time at Texas. If he does, he doesn't talk about it publicly.

For how many guys compete, lose the job, and then leave with a chip on their shoulder like they've been slighted, it's nice to see a guy take things like they should be in these situations and go on to have success at his next stop.

Hook'em, Shane.

We will miss him. Probably better for the program that he moves on.

He throws one of the prettiest deep balls I've ever seen. I think he'll be a good NFL backup.

Hook em/Pony up!

I think Shane simply realized that under the shitass OL he was behind, he was gonna fucking get killed with his style of play and his body type.  So it wasn't in his interest to start over Sam, even if he could. 

I believe he graduated from Texas after a decent career and managed to have a pretty nice little second career at a place where he wasn't going to get turned into Charlie Brewer.

No resentment, nothing left undone or not achieved.  A great story, really.

 

Shane has been a great example on and off the field at two outstanding universities.  I look forward to seeing what unfolds in this young man's future.

How many QBs leave school with a masters after playing as much as he did? Impressive

Much easier to do this thanks to some being able to accumulate college credits in high school.  If you are able to transfer 24-36 hours of dual credits you are second semester Sophomore your first day on campus. The key is to stick to major and not do what many of us do (or did) and switch.  Some of these kids graduating from the “early college” high schools have the equivalent (or close to it) of an Associates Degree which is 60 hours of course work in some fields.  

Here to celebrate his efforts and well wishes for an NFL career. He made numerous plays and publicly certainly handled it the right way.

And kudos to the Horns staff for helping him retain the extra year.

Day 3 of the 2021 NFL Draft

Shane Buechele - Quarterback Southern Methodist Mustangs 2021 NFL Draft Scouting Report 

https://www.si.com/nfl/draft/scouting-reports/shanebuechele

 


Is this Buechele's highlight reel?

Or Roberson's?

If Robertson is in this draft, his agent can just send this video around to teams as well. (Proche crashed the party a bit, but Roberson looks NFL ready.)...

EDIT: Just looked it up and Reggie Roberson Jr. has announced that he will return to SMU. His last two seasons ended with injury and so he's coming back for one more.

6'0"
200 lbs

Desoto High School

Not bad averages on yards/reception. https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4241888/reggie-roberson-jr
