He has nowhere to go but down
I would be pretty excited about the prospects of McGee at QB, he really impressed me with his play against UT last Friday. He showed some speed I didn't think he had and seemed to play with a great deal of poise throughout the game. Granted, he did make some mistakes late in the game, but he's young and smart enough to learn from them. Additionally, he seems to have that leadership quality that you've gotta love in your QB. Guys seemed to really play with a lot of intensity with him at QB, more so that what I saw with Reggie at QB. I would be highly optimistic with him as my QB that a&m will have a much better season next year.
He definitely is a potential star man.
Word to the wise, everyone & their mom was hyped just as much about McNeal.
I don't know the future, but it is looking brighter in ag land.
What I've seen before at a number of different levels with sports is two types of athletes that assume leadership positions on a team. The leaders who have all the natural god-given talent in the world, but don't necessarily want/know how to lead their team (I saw this first hand with C. Simms as our QB). There are also the guys who don't have a great deal of talent, but just lead through determination, charisma, etc. I also saw this type when Applewhite was our QB. Every once in a while you get the guy who has the god-give ability and the desire to win and lead to go with it, someone like Vince Young. All of that just brings me back to McNeal and his time at a&m, no doubt he had all kinds of natural talent, but I'm just not sure if he was a real leader on that team, or if his team bought into him as a leader. I know it's only one game, but McGee seemed to have that determination, charisma, whatever it is that his team bought into. To me that's a positive for the future.
Steven McGee had a stunning and impressive performance, I will give him that.
BUT
-He used the same play a lot
-He was a little ballsy with his antics(getting up and asking UT's D-line to go ahead and do it again)...that pissed me off, you ain't that great yet, McGee
If you use the same play again and it works, well...
totally, the old Nebraska teams had only two plays in the entire playbook. Option right and Option left. They won 2 national championships with those two plays.
Well, he's got a strong arm and he can run like there's no tomorrow. What's left?
From watching McGee, and I know it was just one game, he just seemed to have a connection with his guys- the O linemen in particular. I hadn't seen an OL block like that against Texas all season. To me, you can tell when an offensive squad is really behind their QB, they sell out for that guy and they're trying to pancake anyone that gets in their way or tries to get to the QB. I saw that with the aggie OL playing against Texas, I didn't always see that when McNeal was the QB.
Fran hasn't exhibited an ability to motivate his players during his tenure at A&M. McGee did seem to bring that in last Friday's game. It's never a bad thing when one of your best players is also the most compe ive.
A win over UT?
Soooooo, if he were that good why was he sitting behind McNeal?
Perhaps because McNeal was fairly good in his own right.
Young, Mock, et al never had to play with as poor a defense as McNeal had over the last 2 seasons. Not by a long shot.
Well, tell your boys to stop itHe used the same play a lot
Get used to it-He was a little ballsy with his antics(getting up and asking UT's D-line to go ahead and do it again)...that pissed me off, you ain't that great yet, McGeeHe used the same play a lotThat's the way us Ags are.
Too bad y'all are, and clueless to boot. Still waiting for another "Romance" > Reggie Bush thread.yall aren't so obnoxious when you are winning![]()
