Blaming our recruiting woes on transplants does not tell the whole story. You can use that reason for the players who came to the state after Hurricane Katrina and went to Louisiana to play at LSU, but that does not explain a lot of the other people. Part of it is just the lack of success Texas...

What about Green?

Yeah, that makes sense. There's still time to get a run or two. 

We should have done a safety squeeze to tie the game. McKenzie is a lightweight of a batter.

Nico and his Little League control gifted A&M those runs. 

Jay Bilas calling a Duke game is worse than listening to the lunatic Bill Walton call a game. Bilas made it seem like Texas was the worst bunch of degenerates he had ever seen and gave Duke a pass every chance he got. That occurred while Texas was up 10+ points until late in the 2nd half. What a...

Great breakdown, Ryan! This is easily the best analysis of the football game each week. The Cade Brewer touchdown was almost an exact copy of the play the UH offense would run over the past two years, with Herman and Applewhite calling that same play to McCloskey of UH on numerous occasions in...

Ridiculous call and ejection. This umpire needs to get thicker skin. Pathetic. 

A well-deserved firing. I mentioned the poor guard coaching a few times during the season. I just wish Lucas could be demoted as well - it was a horrible offseason decision to make him an assistant. Both Cason and Jai Lucas have done a terrible job with the guards this year. There has been no...

Here's a quick take on where Texas basketball has improved, and where it has been poor. Decent or improved during the past two seasons: Defensive system Frontcourt offense - improvement from Ibeh, Cleare, Allen Rebounding - improved after slow starts in both seasons Bad or did not improve: ...

How soon can we get DBU rolling again? I'm really excited about the defensive back recruits in this class. Any chance we see a commit from a DB before the end of the summer?

When I think about the basketball team, I keep going back to Smart demoting Morrell in favor of Jai Lucas. Last year's team, while inconsistent, certainly seemed to improve under the assistant coaching of Cason and Morrell. I understand retaining Lucas for recruiting reasons, but the coaching...

I don't know much about the 2018 class yet, but I do know that there are a lot of good players in the Houston area this year. Should we expect a lot of them to be heading out of state, or do you think they will be willing to hear out Herman, Sumlin, Morris, etc.? If Texas can keep them within...

What a relief! I don't think anyone wanted to go through another saga with him again. 

Is Eno the running back Texas has been pursuing hard, or are we still working on getting someone like Dobbins?

LOL. Let's take a look at Houston's recruiting classes before Herman and with Herman: 2013: 56th, 2nd in AAC, Players with a grade of 86 or higher in the 247 Composite: 1 2014: 76th, 5th in AAC, Players grade 86 or higher: 0 2015: 92nd, 7th in AAC, Players grade 86 or higher: 1 Tom Herman's...

The official statement from UH is you can take your arrogance and shove it up your own ass. We will never be desperate enough to want you back. 

That's simply not true. 

Yeah, it was false. The Houston AD himself said that Briles contacted him and they weren't interested. 

It's not going to be possible to get energetic performances because the team has so little depth. Not sure why Shaka wouldn't have just picked up an additional 2 or 3 star player just to have some depth to run his system on defense. Guard play has been atrocious, and it's arguably the most...
