I think so, but it will take more vision than we are used to seeing from the current Big 12 leadership.

With deepest, deepest apologies to Blackie Sherrod, mostly all hither, but a few yon...

Remember the 2006 NFL Draft of QBs? Tennessee took Young with the 3rd pick, Arizona took Leinart around 10th, and Denver took Cutler 11th. After the first year, the general consensus was that Tennessee, gambling on an unpolished passer like Young might have caught lightning in a bottle, Leinart just needed time, and that canny old sage, Mike Shanahan, found the real jewel in the

Dispelling some myths and misconceptions as we possibly enter a period where things may open up again... 1. Texas has not been a good conference partner.

It has been interesting to read the TCU "Killerfrogs" board. They have as many posts panning Texas as they do pumping TCU.

25 - 1 over the last two years, the best in the nation (TCU is second at 24 - 1). Longest win streak in the nation. Seconds from being 26 - 0. On to Pasadena to settle this.

Most cultures, modern and ancient, have ghost stories. Even cultures that do not have an afterlife in their religious cosmology are concerned about the restless spirit, kept from its deserved rest.

He has a career passer rating of 70.1, which is below average.

No, not coaches like Chizik, that will devour your brain, but rather coaches that are like "zombie banks", that are dead (their schools want to fire them), but still moving (because their schools lack the buyout money to do so). I think that this is a new phenomena, because buyouts got so large in recent years. I think Dan Hawkins is a zombie coach. He and CU both know it's not going to work out. It would

Not a lot of change for Texas this week, because we were expected to win. TAMU's projections took a hit with their loss (they still project to give Texas its 4th toughest game), and OU needs to win out to reach 8 wins before their bowl. TT/OSU is a big game. I have added a section on the bottom for undefeated teams. TCU is waiting for Texas to stumble (would they stay ahead of an
