in every clip Ive seen of him, He looks bad doing everything.

But Imani Cross doesn't. Smh.

 

[amazingGRACE]

Hill is a wasted a scholly imo. I know he hasn't even started his sophomore season yet, but he hasn't shown ANY signs of being able to contribute on this team.



Hill > Cross according to Dooley & Graham..thanks guys.

We're in trouble if the WRs stay the same come opening day. Passing game won't be fun to watch at all........

Man, that hurts. :no:

Hindsight. How many of us would have been able to call it? Most hated to cut Cross because he was our first commit, but I don't recall anyone griping because they studied the tape and saw a huge difference

Well, it is only March. Wouldn't worry yet.

I dont know. there was A lot of consternation.

Willie Martinez said that LaDarrell McNeil has been the most consistent defensive back through 6 spring practices. He said his db's had a long way to go in terms of technique, playing the ball, etc, etc. But he praised McNeil's approach to practice everyday.

Steve Stripling told me that J. Smith was his dl MVP on Tuesday and said that Smith has adapted back to the DE position very quickly. McCullers showed a step forward on Tuesday as well as Stripling said he felt the whole group took a step forward on Tuesday.

He wasn't sure they took any steps on Thursday. Same for the receiver position.

Jones was clearly worried about his teams focus on Thursday and pushed harder than he has all spring in terms of verbally challenging guys.

Eric Gordon remains out. He did see part of practice on Thursday as he was around the complex, but he wasn't on the sidelines. He's expected to miss the remainder of spring.

Oh really......I didn't like Hill at all and called him a fullback. Not tooting my own horn but I never was a fan of Hill over Cross.

its almost become a tradition for us to lose a key member of the secodary every year.

 

[The Breakerboy]

I said if they stay that way. We better hope Croom, Howard, Dallas, and Bowles get it together. We will have a hard time winning on the edge with those guys athletically versus the Florida level talent.

Blanc is an athletic freak, but yes, I agree with you

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

What is up w D Bowles? He should be popping by now.

 

[The Breakerboy]

Hunter, Da'Rick Rogers, and Patterson are what I call freak athletes. I don't know what your definition is.....

Yeah but none of us are paid big cheese to make those decisions either. Doesn't change the fact that a HUGE mistake was made by the previous staff on an important personnel issue.

 

[babyavi]

after watching the video, we are going to get thrashed by opposing TE's in space. AJ looks like the only serviceable LB for us. Ouch this is going to hurt....

so white guys can't be freak athletes aight

I argued all along Cross should have been a part of the class. We needed RB help and the kid looked like a player to me. I do think Hill will prove to be a solid player before his time at UT is over.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

BB you've hated on Blanc's game from day one. What is it that you don't like about it? He has basically the same size and speed of Da Rick whom you consider a freak.

I'm hoping Brent turns out to be a good OLB. I really don't see much in most of our LBers yet.

I think Probst or Fugate could be a serviceable MLB (still not good, just serviceable) but that role is AJ's to hopefully dominant..

Who said that? Clay Matthews isn't normal. I just don't consider Blanc to be a freak athlete at the WR position. Where does race come into that equation? I guess because I named three WRs that happened to be Black huh..... Volnation I tell ya.....

Ha. Don't mind me laughing with my pal Aaron at your comment! (I know you were being sarcastic, but I felt this applied).
