OT: The Dark Empire (THE Horns Down College Thread)

That has me baffled too. Although we did have games where we got torched with his D. Maybe people are figuring it out?

Maybe he didn’t have Levine to stock him with NFL talent and had to rely on those poor 4 and 5 star players. You know how strapped UT is for talent; they just can’t figure which 5 star player to use.

I liked the style of defense he played…aggressive. Cauthen coaches a similar style, but I have to admit that I was concerned early in the year; however, that style is coming on now that his guys have had some time learning it. We don’t seem to get as many take away’s, but hopefully that will come also.

I also, think that TO benefited greatly from the defensive guys left by Levine and Gibbs, but he and his staff really coached them up. The LB’s especially…remember Elandon Roberts. One year under TO and he was a different player.

There is no doubt in my mind, that I would have preferred that TO was the next coach instead of Apple Boy. Orlando might not have found a good OC…of course, Apple Boy took 2 strikes to do it.

We’ll never know.

Not good times in Austin, love it…

Samuel Cosmi UH decommit starting left tackle at Texas likely 1st round pick

We would have a good line if Cosmi was here.

YIKES!!! …

When Kirk Bohls who has been FOREVER the horn spokesman in the town rag is saying all those negative comments on PeeWeeH … THEN one knows the end is near or close …

“(PeeWeeH) isn’t as good as advertised” and that something is broken and won’t get fixed by season end pretty much laid the first nails in that Halloween coffin …

AND what is making it worse is PeeWee IS STILL defending Orlando who is as popular with orangebloods these days as the ebola virus …

Bohls votes for bush over Vince young for heisman. So he’s not mr popular in Austin.

An excellent adventure ! Go Coogs !

Bohls has been at the Austin Statesman for many years and yes he is a homer from top to bottom…or he would have been run out of town by now…lol

This Elandon Roberts?

Roberts played college football for Morgan State as a freshman linebacker in 2012. He finished the season with 107 tackles to lead team and finish second in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) while at Morgan State University which competes in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision. The 107 tackle total marked the second-best single-season effort in program history, and He also had nine tackles for a loss, two sacks, one interception, and two pass breakups as well. Roberts was named to the All-MEAC second team in 2012 and finished 11th in the Jerry Rice Award, given to the nation’s top freshman on the FCS level. Roberts was also named the MEAC Rookie of the Week three times.[4]

I agree with some of the orangebloods posting comments … they ALL respect Earl but wish they stop interviewing him … he I believe is still in a wheelchair and maybe suffering from dementia from TOO MANY direct hits (now targeting) to his helmet as a pro …

BTW the horns #2 QB is Rochon Johnson (#2) and is black and a former HS all American and now freshman … PeeWee is playing him at RB because he is too talented to keep on the bench with all the RBs now hurt

Let’s see, there have been 53 Super Bowl games played and I recall 2 black QB’s that won the game. Doug Williams in SB #22 and Russell Wilson in SB #48. I’m not racist, but what am I missing here?

Too talented to RS like King? So talented he wastes a year of eligibility since he might get canned after this year? Sounds like someone just wants to win at the expense of his players. Hemorrhoid has always been about Hemorrhoid since day one.

Boy, do I wish Warren Moon would have made it in Houston. That 1992 team was special.

Earl is an idiot! Doesn’t matter the skin color of a player. What an ignorant ahole. Who says stuff like that? And why post or print something like that as a writer? That’s just Charles Barkley “tuurribllee”- terrible. I’m sorry it is!
