David Ash Is Your New American Idol -- Give Luck Its Due
Everyone who has ever played a team sport knows that you cannot sabermetric everything. There comes a time on every team where a player makes or breaks a reputation for reliability, capability, and inspiration. If the player steps up and makes a play – or achieves an unlikely result – then the...
Reliving the Wishbone: Now and Then
I'm still curious about what else HarsinWhite 2011 has in mind for our Wildcat packages this season. The Jesus was dead on about having 2 different operators for those schemes (Shipley and Fozzy so far) and the scrimmage videos at MackBrown-texasfootball suggest that the zone-read is being utilized...
The Harsin Offense: Making Complexity a Single-edged Sword

Sure, some critics, some "haters", some detractors, will point out that a bye week means no opponent and that the Longhorns' effort in DKR...
Texas-OU 2010 Post Mortem- Offense
Oklahoma's weakest unit is their defense. They're ranked 95th in the FBS. They were pushed around by Utah St, Air Force, and Cincinnati. And after playing us, OU actually improved their rankings in every single statistical category.
