Him and Johnson are the two gamebreakers on the team. But we have to have coaches smart enough to play them and get them the ball more than a few plays a game. Somehow other teams manage to get their playmakers the ball more than Texas seems to do. Puzzling and frustrating when we underutilize the most dangerous players on offense.

I think you may be right about this being a complete rebuild.

Even on defense, we will take several steps back next year. Ridgeway and Jackson will anchor a pretty good DL but we have no linebackers that are any good and outside of Hall in the secondary I don't see anyone that really stands out.

The offense is in shambles. No running back with any quickness, the WR's are average at best, and the OL is a total and complete shitshow. And all of that is on top of a QB situation that defies explanation. And we refuse to play the only two gamebreakers we have on any kind regular basis.

With all due respect... I dont quite share your bleek outlook on our next season. hahaha... Of course I am of the firm belief that so much of a teams overall success has to do with QB play, and ours has been horrible for the last several years. I think we have VERY good talent at just about every position. We have some really good WRs, minus Marcus Johnson, dude couldnt catch a cold... For some reason Daje is used only about a fraction of the time he should be... If you were speaking about proven field talent then I retract my stance because a lot of the players I am refering to have not gotten a chance to play yet or have only played very little. My personal opinion is that we have more than enough quality talent on the roster to compete with anybody, as long as our field general is skilled and competent. The OLine, having been thrown together, has made some pretty huge strides. Not perfect but they have improved more than any other area, primarily because the only way to go was up. Without going through each position group I have a lot of positivity for next year based on what Ive seen this year...

Again for me ALPHA and OMEGA is the QB position... We have to be one of the easiest teams in the country to prep for. EIther your QB elevates the team or he drags them down... The latter is whats been happening.

Two pick-6's and a horrible fumble by swoopes for the scoop and score... One of the worst QB performaces I have seen in a long time.
