Demarco Boyd looks damn good. Another brother that's supposed to be an afterthought, stepping up.

I fell asleep and didn't even notice demarco. Is he at linebacker?

Demarco was 36. Very active. Pretty good at coverage, made lots of tackles. Was reading before the game how he was expecting to redshirt and to sit and learn, but it looks like will be one of the top 4 linebackers and will play a lot on special teams.

Really? I was looking forward to Demarco Boyd FINALLY being an All-purpose Fullback for us, like OU has had over the years. But Sterling Gilbert ends being hired instead & I know the Baylor offense doesn't really use Fullbacks like other Power Spread offenses do. So I was wondering what his role was gonna be.

I thought he would be a fullback too just as I thought D. Foreman would be coming out of high school. Both have proven more athletic than their high school tape showed.

a&m accounts out here on twitter saying the players don't respect Strong

They should tune into LHN and watch All-Access. Not only do they respect Strong, but he has about as good of a report with his players as I've ever seen.

Man if A&M fans/media would ever do their research or even just watch this:

Charlie Strong, Texas Football's newest head coach, has impressed a number of people during his coaching career. Longhorn Network produced this in-depth video about Strong's career to date.

, they'd understand that Coach Strong was Urban Meyer's ace recruiter at UF.

But A&M fans/media still don't think he's a good recruiter.


Man I found out from lurking FSU/UF/Miami recruiting forums back in January/early February that FSU/UF/Miami fans & media respect Coach Strong A LOT MORE than rival in-state & Big 12 fans/media do.

Better get used to 4 years of Buechele unless Sam just comes in and tears it up or Buechele gets hurt.

The folks who think Buchele is the future are overreacting. How is Buechele the future when Elhinger is supposed to be the more highley rated QB recruit?

Because Buchele will have a year on him in the system and Sam will likely be redshirted next year.

I'm a big Kai fan but it looks like he's about done here. I felt bad for him after they cancelled the 2nd half of the Spring Game. That was his opportunity to show out for the fans. His best opportunity to play was last year w/ Watson since he was close to him.

@satam55

Did Kai put this out himself? Closed practice highlights? He campaigning for the job? This is the type of shyt that has him in the doghouse. Kid just doesn't get it.

If you watch Kai's full game tape in HS he's honestly worst than Heard at throwing the ball. Dude should move to WR :francis:
