LOL at "hasn't been the case so far".

Bitter much?

eerbody again

Nope just stating the facts. Good pick up for y'all though

[Sharecropper]

Good recruiting . . Weaker conference . . tu should win 10 . .

[Smart]

Big whoop let's see it translate to on field results. Hasn't been the case so far. In both towns they better win this year or will probably be looking at new staffs coming in.

Class Ranking. Win-Loss
'12: 2nd in nation 9-4
'13: 17 8-5
'14: 16 6-7
'15: 10 5-7
'16: 7 ?

Yup.... Bitter like a scorn woman....

Great pickup! Hellava class for UT. I've said all along I like what Charlie was doing there. I have little doubt he will have the time to prove me right. Wish I could say the same for my Ags...

Just for the record, what is your collegiate sports program of choice?

[EastTexasMan]

Phil Steele believes Texas wins 9-10 as his most improved.

Class rankings versus attrition:
2012 15 players
2013 4 players
2014 13 players
2015 9 players
2016 8 players

There are only 26 Juniors and Seniors on the 85 man roster.

Charlie just bought more time, but he needs to win at least 7 while developing the new offense and QB.

So what's our old buddy Phil's logic here? Apparently Texas has a "young" team with 70% of the team being underclassmen. So what does he see that's going to make them the "most improved" and win 9 games?

QB - True freshmen? Tough task
OL - Not very good last year, same guys more experience?
D - worst in school history last year, and now still young?

I'm just curious what stands out to you to say, they can go from 5-7 to 9-10 wins. True Freshmen QB, on a young team, with a #107 ranked defense last year... Guess I just don't see it.

Well, for starters they completely fell apart and blew 3 very winnable games last year........

BU is not gonna be as good.

They will beat Tech and Cal. They beat two top 10 teams in OU and BU.....

So basically, weak schedule is how? Hit me up come OU game if you wanna bet some $$$ on it

So... UT will be better because ....2 of their opponents were bad last year and one will be worse..
That's sooner logic.

Good question for the guru, Phil Steele. I was taken by surprise when I read it. I'm sure he breaks it down by experience and 2 deep among other variables, not tinted goggles.

Think they'll show up this year? All I've heard is that they didn't show up the last 2.

[Puncher51]

Charlie is doing a great job at UT. Unfortunately his schedule is doing him no favors. I just don't see how they will get close to 10 wins. From what I can see, they will have to win every close game, plus pull some upsets. I think the foundation is there, but this offense will need some time. I'm hoping a 7 win season allows him to keep his job.

That and they will be better....and THEY BEAT TWO TOP 10 teams last year doofus.

As an Aggie I'm all for counting top 10 wins as top 10 wins even when the team finishes unranked, but that Baylor win with their slot wr playing QB should hardly go into the assessment of last year's team.

I've got them losing to Notre Dame, OU, TCU, and maybeeeee Baylor(little Briles is still there right now with alot of weaponry). If they can get through the buzzsaw of Iowa State this year they should win 8-9 for sure, the schedule sets up nicely for them.


Also, serious question, kicking game was an issue last year do y'all have new guys this year or is it still Rose?
