Evaluating The 2012 Texas Longhorn Recruiting Class: Quarterback, Running Back, Kicker
Johnathan Gray, Connor Brewer, and Nick Jordan are our one man position groups. Each successful solo, but collaborating here. Sort of like the We Are The World video, but for a more important cause. Gray is the most accomplished high school running back ever; Brewer is a play action Jedi with...
Practice Report From The Asset
Greetings to all of you that are Jonesing… I was able to catch up with The Asset for this week’s Bowl Practice report and as always it’s quite interesting. I mean, what’s not interesting about Chris Whaley playing tight end, Jaxon Shipley throwing passes to David Ash, and Demarco Cobbs getting...
Mondays In The Humidor With The Big Cigar
This episode of the Humidor happened on a Monday in November. We sat on the information because we’re fans and didn’t want to derail or distract from what has turned out to be a pretty damn productive season coming off of 5-7. Were it not for some injuries and transfers, we’d be looking at 10...
Practice Report From The Asset (Updated W/ Thursday Tidbit)
I know that Humidors and Big Cigars are on everyone’s mind at this point but first things first. We have a ball game with the Baylor Bears this weekend, gents. And, it’s an important one. Texas is trying to win the staff’s predicted 8th game and we’re trying to deny RGIII the Heisman trophy that...
Texas-Texas AM Football Post-Mortem: Defense
I'll remember this defensive effort for the rest of my life. The deceptive 27-25 score does it no justice. The Texas defense has been rolling since the bye week, but if you told me before the game our offense would amass only 237 yards and that A&M's offense would have 18 possessions (a typical...
Quick Update From The Asset
I know I owe you a Humidor and I promise I'll post what I can by the end of the week. At this point, however, I think it's best for everyone involved if we table the meat of that article for now. I promise I won't leave you high and dry. With that out of the way, I wanted to give you a quick...
Practice Report From The Asset: Jaxon A Go?
I'm going to hold off on the Humidor post until after the Aggie game. There's a lot of information from my guy that would divert our attention from the task at hand--pulling off the upset in Aggieland. Look for that on Friday after I come out of my tryptophan/Aberlour slumber. This week's...
Practice Report From The Asset(s)
I had a chance to catch up with The Asset last night and he gave me the latest and greatest from Monday's practice. I was also able to connect with another source who clued me on some goings on with the offense. The more information the better, especially considering the timing. And, since this...
Practice Report From The Asset
Sorry for the belated practice report but I just got home from Milwaukee, which is Algonquin for "The Good Land." Algonquins must have been drunks in my opinion (no racist), because everyone in that goddamn city drinks like a fish. But I regress, and so does my liver. On to Texas Football via...
Kansas State and Other Thoughts
BCS Standings I'm intrigued by the possibility of LSU losing a game (SEC championship game, Georgia, or Arkansas) and then losing their chance at a title to Alabama or Oregon. One common argument you hear for the strength of the BCS is that it "makes the regular season matter." How in the world can...
