BYU 2011 Outlook
The Purple Wimple welcomes back Jake, now a recidivist guest contributor about BYU at the Wimple, to look ahead at BYU. BYU’s last football season started off as a train wreck. After the loss at Utah State the Cougars were 1-4, their worst start in nearly 40 years. However, the Cougars gained...
MWC Unit Preview: Passing Attacks
TCU- Read 'em and weep, defensive coordinators: Jeremy Kerley, Jimmy Young, Antoine Hicks. They're all back, and like last season, they'll be giving Andy Dalton targets at every level of the field last on just about every down. Then there're the backups: Curtis Clay, Bart Johnson, and Jonathan...
2010 Texas Recruiting Class -- The Misses
Note: Mack Brown mentioned during his press conference that the Longhorns only offered 30 scholarships, but the unofficial numbers indicate 34 scholarship offers. Since it's impossible to know which four of these players did not receive a scholarship offer, this post will operate under the...
2010 GoBR Texas 25 Debut
First, a note about this list -- most recruiting rankings do a poor job of explaining how they go about ranking prospects and the great majority don't even seem to provide any explanations at all. Is it based on upside, on projections about how good a player could end up being or is it based on...
2010 Signing Day Preview - BYU Cougars

Another De-Commit: Apo to BYU
Maybe it was a big deal when former 2010 wide receiver commit Ross Apo wore OU shorts to the Palo Alto Nike Camp several weeks ago. Or maybe it was a big deal that he was even there -- the Arlington Oakridge receiver caught passes from recent BYU commit Jake Heaps, a fellow Mormon and the...
Morning Coffee Is All About the Lists
Bigs on 2010 wish list. Daniel Bejarano and Tristan Thompson by themselves make quite a pair for the 2010 Longhorn basketball class, but Rick Barnes and company aren't finished, looking for a back-to-the-basket big to compliment the two players already committed. The two foremost names are Josh...
Morning Coffee Gets Offensive
DeSoto full of talent. Beyond Adrian White, beyond Darius Terrell, beyond Evan Washington, there is still talent at DeSoto High School, especially in the 2011 class. Perhaps no player in that group that includes quarterback Ryan Polite, running back Antoine Jimmerson, and wide receiver David...
