Halftime Thoughts
Except for some sloppy ball-handling from Darko, Davis, and Tairu, I couldn’t be happier with the way we’re playing. Obviously Herb Pope’s punch to Darko’s groin and subsequent ejection was the defining event. Tech went on a 13-0 run after the play, and that equals our lead at this point.

If NU really wants to win they need to take a page from TO’s coaching career.
1. Never let great talent leave the state, Nebraska is desolate for talent so when a good player comes around you have to land him.
2. Develop a “system” where talent can flourish and help the team.

Kiffin’s father is a great coach, but the rest of that staff isn’t. Orgeron and Kiffin are both good, dirty recruiters and mediocre to poor gameday coaches.

The tragedy here is that each and every swinging Richard here knows that UT could and should cherry pick the best of Texas. Even assuming they did get all 14 guys on that list, they’ll lose 3 of 4 to OU for no other reason than because you guys still have Greg f*cking Davis running your offense. If you replaced him with an Oompa Loompa, you’d have 2 Big 12 titles and another MNC by 2010. But I guess horizontalism is its own reward.
At this point, I’m not even happy about it anymore. I’m really not. It took the single greatest player in UT history, and one of the best ever to set foot on a field for ANY team, to unf*ck the UT offense.
Good Lord, you all are resilient. I truly salute you.

I don’t know that Kelley gets an offer. Unless his aunt really puts her foot down. He’s definitely not one of McWhorter’s top 3 targets so the variable may be how many ships McWhorter is allotted this year. I think maybe a no.
Unless he’s already a commit, then never mind.

I didn’t realize he projected as an OT though; we definitely need bodies there. Kelley definitely has the right attitude and want-to, as well as the bloodlines.

Whaley’s not a surprise, as Mack had made him a personal project some time ago.
The offer to the safety from Brownwood is interesting. Shepard may take some time to play out. I can’t see turning a kid like Loston frankly.
McFarland and Okafor are must-haves IMO.

If we land him, we are good on the OL for years to come. He makes Allen and Huey look small. Picture Ulatoski, but with a healthy physique.
