Longhorn Notes: Davis Healthy, Chiles Not, Kriegel Exercises at OT
Mike Davis practiced this week and looked good. The coaches expect him to play against Nebraska and he will weigh heavily in our game plan, irrespective of his #2 depth chart listing. If we're to make a play downfield or convert some key 3rd and 9s Jordan Shipley style - you know, catch 5 yarder,...
We Are Exactly That: Do Not Expect Anything Else This Year
There is a lot of hand-wringing going on today. People are suggesting that this is the beginning of the end of another great Longhorn football era (it’s not). People are suggesting that it’s the worst loss in the Mack Brown era (it’s not). People are suggesting that Mack Brown...
Want to Win in Lubbock? Recipe Inside.
We have two games in the books for the 2010 season and have brought you coverage from all angles: A Utility Belt of Winnebagos & Bears, a Derridian deconstruction, a cinematic allegory, a sidesaddle tribute to a newborn, a synopsis of what actually happened on Offense and D/ST, and a Tuscaloosan...
Texas Football Mid-Camp Report: RB, WR, QB
Rice is two weeks away and I thought I'd share some thoughts on where we are based on my observations, what I'm reading from Mack and Greg and Will, and what I'm hearing from people with access to the program. I also want to talk some personnel strategy. QB Garrett Gilbert has the best deep ball...
Texas Football Practice Report Day One: What Scipio Missed While Scoping Out Sweaty Babes
Nice rundown on Wednesday's open practice here already by Scipio. And now that I've pointed out to him who all the players are and what positions they play, tomorrow's recap should only get better. He tends to focus on the defense whereas I watched the guys who actually make plays, score points,...
John Chiles Rising
The reports have been streaming steadily out of the Longhorn camp that John Chiles is a new man. Or at least 90% of the man he used to be, given his weight loss. Once a dynamic high school dual threat QB, Chiles stagnated into a doughy back-up QB with no lateral movement or quickness, first...
Practice: Day Ten
Texas had a single practice on Tuesday. I talked to a source within the program, and he indicated that the practice was either in the morning or the evening. Or possibly in the afternoon. Mack Brown informs us that it's pretty fucking hot in Austin on his blog. Kenny Boyd, the head athletic trainer...
Official Name "The Package" Contest Update
After extensive field research Barking Carnival staffers have determined that the devastating new offensive weapon being honed in closed practices does not, as previously reported, revolve around Colt McCoy wearing pimp robes and a tricorne. We apologize for any misunderstanding or inconvenience...
Chiles + McCoy = Teh Win?
Greg Davis is now working on a package to get both Colt McCoy and John Chiles on the field at the same time. Not sure why this wasn't worked on during the spring, but it seems to be a priority. Davis has been known to give his hand away by personnel. And by this I mean that all the chicks and...
Check-in Day Remarks from Mack
Everybody reported as expected. If you are wondering, WR Antoine Hicks showed up at TCU as was reported earlier this summer. Link to full press conference transcript Most interesting comments: 1. We’d like to take the red-shirt mentality out of it 100 percent. I like the fact we are fully...
