What do you not like about Lodge, SHA? Has similar build and skill set as Burt. He'd be a good replacement.
Clark is MI bound if they get Harbaugh. His Stanford program produced many NFL tight ends.
This, and some.I'd rather have Kyler Murray for three or four years than any JUCO or transfer including Braxton Miller.
The aggies have an entire thread of butthurt devoted to that tweet

Anyone remember any of the posts?
I remember everyone saying the same thing about Heard. Its the precursor to the excitement on every recruit. Most know I am not Swoopes fanboy. Its difficult to believe that Heard was worse than what we saw in the TCU. At that point Im sure they wanted to save his RS, but why not during the KState game? There were numerous bad games by Swoopes. Then everyone talked about how Watson wont play true freshmen. Now its Kyler Murray and he hasnt even committed yet. Ah the Merry-go-round. I will hold my excitement til it materializes whether its his commitment or him beating out Heard and Gentry.The source I spoke with indeed said Watson does not play freshman. And I would agree that that would be the rule due to the difficulty in a frosh picking up the offense so fast. Bridgewater was an exception. Heard was not.
That said, there will be a QB competition that I think Murray would win at UT. It might be game 2, 3 or 4, but he would win the job. He certainly beats anything aggy has on board already. Murray may not know that right now. I don't know.
Murray is that good. His hold back would be arriving in fall with little time to pick up the system. But he's a QB's son who knows how to study a playbook and film and would probably do that all summer prior to fall practice. He's a smarter Manziel and without the off-field issues. At Allen, he has a designated QB coach. In fact, Allen's staff is so large that each position has it's own coach. Even linebackers are divided into "outside linebackers coach" and "inside linebackers coach." So Murray isn't so raw.
If Murray were to come, all our QBs will be better. But I think the moxie that Murray has will win out.
