PrintDoes Texas have any guys playing in the game? Should be fun to watch, especially, if all the Oklahoma recruits some how get injured, "Not that I was injury on anybody"
Game is this afternoon on ESPN, I will be watching, and editing a video at the same time, not that any of you care, but I need 300 characters
Oh, and we should do a final grade on all of our players we adopted...OK I am done.

AAron Williams
AAron Williams will play CB. Do you guys know if he is recruited as a saftey or cornerback?
He played corner...
during the game and was outshined by DJ Moroe

Pretty sure he's been projected at CB

3 Horns already seeing action
Buckner with a nice reception
Tucker with a beautiful punt
DJ Monroe showing blazing speed to down the punt at the 3

Pryor
Somebody explain to me again why we didn't recruit this guy hard?? Good lord.
he doesn't seem to have "it"
walk with me for a second
yeah we recruited the guy ... gave him a look ... but we have some of the best recruiters around
those that got away ... got away for various reasons ... but we usually got them here
and i'm looking at this guy
and i'm remembering something he said that he didn't want the vince young comparisons
and there's something about that statement that raises a red flag with me
did jamaal not want the ced benson comparison
did ced not want the ricky williams comparison
do kobe and lebron not want the jordan comparison
did jordan not want the dr. j comparison?
the answer is no ... simply no ... greatest wants to be compared to and surpass greatness
yes this guy has a chance to go wherever and be good
but there's something about that statement that makes me think he wont be GREAT
and there's something about that, that i'm seeing, and maybe the recruiters saw more as they got to know him
take that with a grain of salt ... because that's my 2 cents
I think it was because of
Shepard and Gilbert. Given that Pryor was initially interested in us, I find it a very risky decision.
Nolan Brewster!
He's the real deal... Just ran down a blazing fast RB to save a touchdown. Hope he sticks to his commit rather than following his Daddy to Minnesota.

agreed, and
His dad got all the talk during the game, while his kid was all over the field. I don't see him coming to UT though. Blood is very thick.

Nice adds to our D
Both of those guys are fast fast fast, and seem to have good hands. Couldn't be coming on board at a better time.

Monroe again!
Comes from outta nowhere and runs down that RB to save a TD. Amazing speed.
by patienthornsfan on Jan 5, 2008 12:49 PM CST up reply actions
And again
Taking down a TE almost a foot taller than him!
Jesus this guy looks impressive.
by patienthornsfan on Jan 5, 2008 1:01 PM CST up reply actions
He's my new favourite Horn
... and he's not even a Horn yet!
Love this guy. What a motor.
by patienthornsfan on Jan 5, 2008 1:08 PM CST up reply actions
I think he's
the second most impressive player of the game, after Pryor. Am I right, or am I seeing things through burnt-orange glasses?
You're right. When you're right, you're right.
And you're right.

Brewster everywhere
Great sideline-to-sideline coverage
by patienthornsfan on Jan 5, 2008 1:19 PM CST up reply actions
TD Buckner!
Acrobatic catch too.
by patienthornsfan on Jan 5, 2008 12:44 PM CST reply actions
Can you say.....
the next Limas---> Dan Buckner. Great catch.
by TEXASFIGHT on Jan 5, 2008 12:46 PM CST reply actions
He was in the top 5 of the LSR 100
... before his Senior year, and dropped consistently. He was also a Rivals 5-star and dropped to 4, but I think we can see now his original ratings were the correct ones!
by patienthornsfan on Jan 5, 2008 12:48 PM CST reply actions
Yeah, I actually didn't expect much
given his plummet this year. His performance today is just one more piece of evidence showing how jacked these ranking systems are. He's looked incredible.
Finally an appearance by Aaron Williams
I thought he'd be the star on D, not DJ Monroe. Nice ankle tackle.
Darrell Scott
I only caught the 2nd half, and haven't seen much of Darrell Scott, how disappointing.
Also, does anyone know if any recruits are planning on graduating early and going through Spring training?
by sharkbait101 on Jan 5, 2008 3:54 PM CST reply actions
thanks...
No need to
After I saw this, I knew:
You feelin' me nigga.
That's like his signature within the signature.

UA Game
Did anyone see the TD catch by DJ Grant? Wow! I'll say it again. WOW!
WOW! is right...
between what we saw from Grant and what we saw from Buckner, I'm pretty excited about our receivers the next few years. And that's not even counting Hales and the guys already on campus...
