As we head downhill towards Rice

by RolloTamasi on Aug 11, 2010 4:29 AM CDT on Barking Carnival

That was the catchphrase used by Greg Davis in describing the progress of the offense in fall camp if you watch his practice report at Mack's site. Despite that cheesy and not clearly positive result (you want downhill to be the catchword for your program? Smells like Tiberius choosing a successor...

Flotsam

From a recent interview in the Port Arthur News, Jamaal Charles is just one pound away from contending for a starter's role in Kansas City. Sort of like how water turns into steam at 212 degrees but not 211? The coaches want one more pound out of the Port Arthur speedster so he can presumably...

by Jon Johnston on Jul 25, 2007 6:52 PM CDT

Several Big 12 bloggers are voting on pre-season picks. The ballots were due at 5:00 pm central this afternoon. I thought I'd do a couple of posts on why I made the picks I made. The first of the picks is The Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year. The offensive player of the year is generally going...

Morning Coffee Screams

by Peter Bean on Jan 17, 2008 7:37 AM CST on Burnt Orange Nation

[/wishful thinking] I had planned to write this morning about whether Jamaal Charles might reconsider his decision to leave early for the NFL after some 11 other junior tailbacks decided to throw their own hats into the ring. The Statesman squashes that thought, however, reporting that Charles'...

Jamaal Charles Declares For NFL Draft

by Peter Bean on Jan 2, 2008 4:30 PM CST on Burnt Orange Nation

There's already a lively discussion in the diaries, but if you haven't seen it yet: Jamaal Charles will forego his senior season to enter the NFL Draft. As has been noted in the diary thread, this year's draft class is pretty loaded at running back, which begs the question: is this a smart...

Morning Coffee

by Peter Bean on Nov 8, 2007 8:59 AM CST on Burnt Orange Nation

Kirk Bohls has a great column on Mack Brown's angry outburst on the sidelines last Saturday. I've got very little, if anything, to add.Longhorn bowl speculation has begun, with pundits predicting trips all over the map - Holiday Bowl, Gator Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Orange Bowl. As always, my first choice...

You Can't Call 'Em Quitters

by Peter Bean on Nov 7, 2007 10:27 AM CST on Burnt Orange Nation

It certainly hasn't been pretty, but Texas now finds itself at 8-2 and in excellent position for BCS Bowl consideration should it pick up wins over Texas Tech and A&M. Perhaps no win was more gratifying than last week's thriller in Stillwater - a highly, highly improbable comeback from 21...

Special thanks to reader BFAUT86, who isolated this video and emailed it along. I could watch this run all day long. --PB--

Jamaal Charles Is Disgusting

by Peter Bean on Nov 5, 2007 9:11 AM CST on Burnt Orange Nation

I'm still waiting on someone to post video of Charles' 75-yard run against Okie State, but in the meantime, how about a nice video recap of Charles' outburst two Saturdays ago against the Huskers? Damn...
