UT has been hurt by its own awful play. We always had it out with a Oklahoma, Nebraska, and even Arkansas for players. TCU has just filled a gap that should never have been created. Good for them. ATM has even got in on our demise. SEC ...
Mack and Charlie have put us in a big hole. And I don't see a quick way out. We have to win conference championships pretty soon here. It can't be OU nearly every damn year.
Quotes from QB Casey Thompson of Moore, OK after his weekend visit to UT (OrangeBloods):
"This is the most impressive campus I've been on by far. I've been to Clemson, Ohio State. I've been a lot of places," Thompson said. "The city of Austin is really nice."
"I was really impressed with coach Herman. I had a meeting with him (Saturday) morning, me and my dad. We got to talk a lot. ... We just talked about family history. He visited with my dad and we talked about my family," Thompson said. "He just kind of got to know me. it was more of an introduction. That was actually my first time meeting coach Herman in person."
"I've know coach Beck since last winter. He recruited me at Ohio State," Thompson said. "It was just another time to be around coach Beck. He didn't have to ask me a lot of questions. I know coach Beck. I talk to him almost every day."
"Texas is a great program. I don't think either side - I'm not ready to commit and they're not ready. I think it's just getting to know coach Herman and they want to get to know me more," Thompson said. "The guys that they've offered that are uncommitted are me and Dorian (Thompson-Robinson). I know Dorian and I have much respect for him. I think we're very similar. Either way it goes, they're going to get a great quarterback. If they wait on me - I'd like for them to wait on me, obviously. But like I said, Texas is still in the top three as they were before I came this weekend."
"I think Texas is a great fit. I got to be around Sam (Ehlinger). I got to be around Shane Buechele. I got to be around all these guys this weekend. I hung out with (Malcolm Roach) last night too. It was just an overall really impressive visit," Thompson said. "When I got to the facility, I was like 'Why didn't somebody tell me it would be like this?'"
"Spring is what I would like. But if I'm not ready in the spring, I'll commit in the summer," Thompson said. "But I think the schools that I'm looking to narrow it down to soon, I think they're willing to wait on me."
"I met Coach Herman (Saturday) morning. That was my first time meeting him in person. I was really impressed with him," Thompson said. "(Beck) has made me a priority. Even when he was at Ohio State. It was down to me and Emory Jones and Emory pulled the trigger earlier than I did. I respect that, but he has definitely made me a priority. I trust him, and I'm looking forward to building a relationship with coach Herman as well."
Per his Twitter, QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson of Las Vegas, NV has eliminated Texas.
I think him and Casey Thompson are pretty close. Hopefully another sign that Thompson is strongly leaning to the Horns.
My first thought as well.
