Fisher embarrasses Vince Young!

Fisher was giving a speech to NFL rookies, and after warning them about off the field issues, he makes an example out of Vince.

One of Fisher's prime examples of unwanted embarrassment involved his most famous player — quarterback Vince Young. He never mentioned Young by name. He simply showed slides that appeared on two giant screens flanking the stage. The first showed Young posing with fellow participants in a panel discussion during last year's rookie symposium.

"You recognize the second guy from the left?" Fisher said. "He was here last year, and you know what he talked about? He talked about off-the-field (behavior) ... how you guys have got to be really careful because ... one little cell phone camera that sends out (photos or video from) here and it ends up here. And guess what? You're embarrassed."

 

WOW! Note that this was in front of ALL rookies, not just Titans rookies. What the hell was he thinking doing that? What does embarrassing his own QB in front of whole NFL achieves?

Here is a link to the article: titansonline

What you all think?

Commit #19: Derek Johnson

Defensive Tackle Derek Johnson from Arkansas became Texas 19th commitment. There were talk all along that we need at least 2 defensive tackles in this class, with the uncertainties around Jamarcus McFarland, the staff offered Derek Johnson and apparently he committed on the spot. I think he is originally from El Paso.

Obviously, he is no Jamarcus McFarland, but he seems to be solid. He is #7 on the Arkansas top 21: http://texas.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=812287

Here is the blurp that Rival's Arkansas mods wrote about him (apparently a while ago):

Johnson is a big, athletic defensive linemen who could move up this list with futher evaluation. He is also a good bet to receive an official scholarship offer from the Razorbacks following summer camps. Mississippi State was the first school to extend an offer, but they will not be the last. At 6-foot-3, 285 pounds, he has good size and athletic ability. He is also strong in the weight room with a 315-pound bench press max. Johnson registered 98 tackles and forced five fumbles last season for Hoxie. The fact that he plans to major in business could be a bonus for Arkansas since the UA has a nationally ranked business school in the Walton College.

Razorbacks did end up offering.

PS. This is free info from Rivals, btw.

Jermichael Finley

Jermichael Finley talking about why he left Texas:  (From DMN)

Finley just finished up describing why he left Texas. It all started with the Oklahoma game, a big one for him. His four catches and 149 yards affirmed what he thought all along, and led him down the path of no collegiate return.

"That game showed that I needed the ball more," Finley said. "Texas couldn't do it, so I'm coming to the next level. And hopefully at the next level I'll get the ball more. Hopefully I get an offensive coordinator that'll get me the ball, some kind of way. It was against a great defense, a top-five defense, and I showed what I could do."
