  • Don't look now (or do), but Pomeroy now favors us to win all but two of our remaining games, and he has us in a one point loss at home to Bama and a 3 point loss @ Mississippi State.  Most margins of

    100%.  Every game is a big one ... but Arkansas this week in Austin certainly is ... almost a must win. Texas getting to 5-5 in SEC play before the very tough three game stretch of @ Vanderbilt,

Elite second half out of the Horns. Defense was good, shot making excellent, effort great. 

Would appreciate your thoughts on Pryor.

I didn’t want a close win. Texas should be blowing this team out.

Maybe.  Maybe not.  LSU lost by only 13 to Auburn, beat Kentucky, and lost by 8 to Vandy in earlier games in red stick.  We should have won.  But Pomeroy had us as a 1 point favorite.  I know I had said several times that we had played over the Pomeroy prediction in 2 straight games, but winning by this much is an eye opener about what our ceiling might be.  OU lost at home by 2 to A&M, and beat Vandy by 30 and South Carolina by 20.  Our "only" 4 point win in Norman looks a lot better now, doesn't it?

Texas is on the verge of becoming a q1 opponent for teams playing at home.  Whoa. 

But no team plays its best game every game.  This was our best game.  Here's hoping we continue playing at a high level and avoid having any more worst games along the way.

Can someone remind me who Pryor is and why he didn’t play until a few games ago?

He reclassified last year. This should have been his true freshman year. Last year for some reason they played him seven games. That took away his redshirt possibility. Why has he not played? Your guess is as good as mine.

Pryor is someone Terry was ridiculed for recruiting.  He was an under the radar guy who was not only under the radar but reclassified to start a year early.  It was expected he wouldn't play at all last year, but he got a few minutes. 

On another site, most posters thought it was a waste of a scholarship, but I told them from the beginning that I saw a guy with major hops and agility and a nice shooting form from the perimeter.  I saw a really good player there in about 2 1/2 -- 3 years.

He might be a year ahead of schedule.

Well apparently RT has no offensive game plan and has a bad facial expression. Maybe they win by sixty if he fixed those two things.

He's really thin. Listed at 6-7 185 pounds. He's got ability, just needs to fill out a bit and get stronger. He'll be one of those guys who plays for 4 years and gets better each season.

If he keeps improving like this he will never see that senior year

I still have not received an explanation for why Vinson doesn't play in blowouts.

Gerry?
