Longhorn News/Discussion (Non-Recruiting)

[Baron]

Should we move Maalik to TE?

Nope. He's just fine at QB. Arch has his work cut out for him.

I am quite bummed that there doesn't seem to be a possibility for us to see both Arch and Maalik at QB in the future. Seems it'll be one or the other next year and the odd man out is probably going elsewhere.

Go look at the list and the names above and below UT. We are in nice company, no doubt.

lYes the same way we did Young.

I think if Arch wins Malik leaving would be expected,  but if Malik wins and Arch is satisfied with how he is developing,  then I would think he stays.

Consider the possibility that Ewers goes pro in 2023, Malik goes pro in 2024, then Arch could start in 2025 as a red shirt sophomore.

Malik looks like a tank. But that tank doesn’t move very well. He’s a qb only. 

 

[Hiwood]

Maalik looks like a MAN next to a bunch of boys who are trying real hard to look ripped, definitely a physical specimen....Is he bigger than VY ?

I think you are right that this is the only scenario where it could play out for both of them to see some time at Texas.

Would Maalik really go pro after only 1 season though? That's probably the biggest issue with this particular timeline.

Allow me to specify that I was indeed being very sarcastic about the TE statement. 

 

[Bear19]

Slow or not,I think he could be a terror at defensive end opposite Simmons.

I think Arch will play the long game. I could see him waiting 3 years, assuming he is satisfied with his development.  Remember he is turning down millions of NIL to avoid the distraction.

Holy Cow, just looked at the picture. Malik is Jacked. Marvel needs to cast that young man as the Thing in the FF movie. He wouldn’t need a suit. 

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Mallik is showing the results of weight room time. Those legs don't lie, he can run. What we've seen in the past is him trying to win with the arm. His running ability and coordination overall has improved since his arrival at Texas.

Big Ben?

I've owned some really nice boats in my time, but none prettier than that. May not be a good fishing boat, but it's for sure a good chick magnet. Hook'em!

I was curious who the SOC connection may help the most with. They have a 4 star LB in 2025 class and a 3 star as well. Kelvion Riggins is ranked 1st, 6th, 22nd and 37th at the LB position by the 4 sites so who knows?

We are also trying to recruit St. Louis and Missouri more so that connection could be useful.

I want to be that guy’s friend.
