Dude, atm peeps seriously need to sign up for that. I mean, he IS the savior of aggrot football, right?
Haha sorry aTm peeps I know that name brings up not so great memories. That probably goes for the Bama fans too.
I was sitting in your stadium's parking lot once in the rain (waiting to pick someone up) when lightning hit a transformer on the stadium. It was weird, because after the flash of lightning, it got darker again, and then a light started to grow slowly (over what seemed like several seconds) until it looked like the sun was coming up over the horizon. Then the transformer exploded and sent sparks hundreds of feet in the air in all directions (not kidding, this actually happened).
'Remember kids, the game isn't won on a scoreboard. It's won on the field. Time of possession is what matters, not the final score.'
When you hear Franchione utter this or similar language, you know it's time to strap him to the transformer.
i went to one of his camps while he was at tcu. dude just sat in a golf cart driving around and didnt talk to anyone.
waste of money. dont go.
yeahhhhhh well......
Your talking about a different camp, at a different school, with different a group of position coaches, that happened at least 12 years ago. I don't know how much stock I would put in your statement. I doubt he seriously did absolutely nothing and that you didn't get any exposure, much less take away something positive from competing with other athletes. But that is your opinion and I can respect that.
Quarterbacks interested in throwing passes further than 10 yards down the field need not apply................
DESOTO, Texas – Tuesday’s Texas State University camp at DeSoto High School’s Eagle Stadium proved one thing: You don’t need big numbers to find talented players.
With temperatures in the 90s – and the temperature even hotter on the Eagle Stadium turf – more than 70 athletes showed their skills in front of a Texas State coaching staff preparing to transition from FCS to FBS football. The Bobcats will compete in the WAC for the 2012 season, then move to the Sun Belt Conference the following season.
Texas State is hoping some of the athletes in attendance Tuesday will be a part of the transition. Here are eight athletes – listed in alphabetical order – who shined throughout the camp.
2013 TE Bryson Burtnett (Springtown, Texas/Springtown): From the very start of the camp, Burtnett showed the at ude of a focused player. A 6-foot-5, 225-pound tight end, Burtnett showed his skills in pass-catching drills and didn’t spend time joking with the other campers. A couple hours after the camp, Burtnett gave TCU his verbal commitment. Texas State and Rice also have offered him, and Texas, Texas Tech, Baylor, Oklahoma State, Houston and SMU are showing interest.
2013 WR C.J. Cavazos (San Antonio, Texas/Reagan): At 5-foot-7 and 150 pounds, Cavazos is small in stature but lightning quick. He turned in a 40-yard dash time of 4.47 seconds and slowed down in the final two yards. Cavazos additionally has recorded a sub-four-second time in the 20-yard shuttle. He is getting looks from Texas State, Houston and UTSA as a slot receiver.
2013 WR Rickey Daniels (DeSoto, Texas/DeSoto): It’s hard to fathom why Daniels has yet to receive an offer, particularly after his performance Tuesday. Daniels was a problem for opponents on both sides of the ball. As a receiver, he was an excellent route runner and scored a few highlight-play memories with go routes. As a defender, he made multiple plays during 1-on-1 drills. Iowa, North Texas, Kansas and Washington are showing interest.
2013 ATH Jordan Hicks (Arlington, Texas/Seguin): Arguably the best overall player at the camp, Hicks showed blazing speed by finishing the 40-yard dash in 4.44 seconds the first time, 4.38 seconds the second time. He has good shoulders, great explosiveness of the line and all kinds of electricity when the ball is in his hands. Hicks has a solo offer from Morgan State but is getting looks from Kansas State, Oklahoma State and Texas State.
2013 ATH Brandon McDowell (DeSoto, Texas/DeSoto): McDowell is being looked at as both a wide receiver and a cornerback, but it was his play on defense that caught Texas State’s attention. The 5-foot-10, 165-pound playmaker made all the right decisions in 1-on-1 drills and broke up a few key plays with his make-up speed. His efforts were good enough to land him his first scholarship offer from the Bobcats.
2013 ATH Nicholas Phillips (Fort Worth, Texas/North Crowley): Phillips had one of those camps where he gradually got better and impressed the coaches on hand. At 5-foot-9 and 165 pounds, Phillips was a great short-route runner, but when it was time to turn on the jets, he obliged well. He is getting looks from Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Missouri and Yale. He also showed good feet and hips as a defender during 1-on-1 drills.
2013 DE Wylie Reinhardt (Saginaw, Texas/Saginaw): Reinhardt may be one of the state’s most versatile sleepers, as he can play defensive end, tight end, offensive tackle and defensive tackle effectively. Reinhardt is a 6-foot-4, 265-pound ball of fire who plays with a controlled mean streak. Louisiana Tech, North Texas, Texas State, Kansas and Louisiana-Monroe have shown interest thus far.
2013 QB Elbert Speed (Fort Worth, Texas/North Crowley): The first thing you notice about Speed is his 6-foot-4, 200-pound frame. The second thing you notice is his flexibility and agility. Speed showed decent speed in running drills and nice touch in passing drills. He’s a slim-but-chiseled athlete who, if he doesn’t play quarterback, may have a future on the FBS level as an outside receiver.
