Good stuff Bobby...

...2013 identity should be Jonathan Gray with 1400ish yards & 10+ TD's

I do believe Texas will have an underrated DL next year as I expect Shiro Davis to make a strong impact...but I can't believe anything about the 2013 def until I see it

Sadly Texas has a head coach who wants put a square peg into a round hole

Jordan Hicks will also be a senior in 2013 and a key to the defense. Not counting Fera that is 10-11 senior starters and a lot of talent when they came out of high school so looking to 2014 we could be "really young" to quote Mack Brown. The good thing about being young in 2014 and probably back to a team with no identity is Mack will be gone. He's looking for a soft landing and 2013 should give him that. IMO he and Dodds will leave about the same time, I just hope Brown has zero say on his replacement and Dodds zero say on his replacement as well.

Agree that we lack an identity and that's really ashame because I really thought our D and run offense would have been "great" this year. I think our run offense could potentially be very good but how will we go from one of the worst all-time defenses to one that is great let alone good?

Leadership is huge as you emphasized. I agree that the team should get more wins especially with the schedule and I'm hoping we can be that great run offense and at least have a solid defense that doesn't have the knack for giving up big plays. I think Ash will put up big numbers if the running game is working. The kid matured alot this year.
