I expected the secondary to be suspect, you don't lost 3 NFL players and replace them over night.

I think the Case McCoy is what is best for the team is very interesting. He seems to be the guy in all of the pictures with the players and seems well liked.

Not surprised about DJ Grant, he was very physical in the blocking game in the spring game and if his WR skills are still there then he should be our starter with Irby being situational on 3rd downs I would guess.

Bryant Jackson to WR is a disappointment to me, I thought he could be special at safety. Hopefully the coaches know best because after seeing Mykkele Thompson in the THSCA game, he looked like a bonafied stud on offense.

Case, like his brother just seems to be a type of guy that is a natural leader.

After last year, I'm sure we can sacrifice a little talent at the position for the sake of having someone who will make everyone around him better.

Yes, #23.

2011 pass def = 80th in nation @ best

The drop off @ QB is remarkable...to go from VY to Colt to who knows is mind-blowing...to the point of just asking for avg QB play for 2011...never gave much consideration to the chances of Danny White being reincarnated @ Texas, but I'm starting to wonder if David Ash will be the starting QB/P @ some point this season

Did he say anything about how Myk Thompson is looking at DB? Someone else's report had him looking great at DB so would be interesting to see this pov. I guess it's clear the staff likes him better at DB than they did B Jackson

I've seen him around the apartments a few times this summer, and he definitely looks like a guy who's ready for his NFL audition this fall. Two things that have stood out as signs of his commitment to his senior season: 1) it doesn't take much to get him to give a glowing review of Bennie Wylie and 2) it doesn't take long for the alcohol to start flowing at the pool on a given weekend - if Randall is letting loose, he's certainly not doing it in public.

Its obvious some of you have a hard time comprehending exactly what I meant. I don't care about the downvote but if you are going to disagree and respond at least disagree and respond to what I typed. I never said Case wasn't intelligent, or didn't have a good football IQ or pedigree. I agree he does have those things. What I said was, the last time we saw him in game action, his mechanics were way off, and as we all should know by now he doesn't have a strong arm.

Now unless you think his intelligence or football IQ is going to allow him to overcome his obvious deficiencies we have been shown so far I'm not sure how you can think Case is the guy long term. The comparison to Kellen Moore seems to be the one people like to make, but in watching both I still believe their are some passes Kellen Moore makes that I am not sure Case could. Now he can prove me wrong, and if he is the guy then I hope that is the case but until shown otherwise I see no reason to jump on the Case bandwagon.

I was hoping for Mykkele to get a chance at wr but I hear he is looking real natural at cb. I'm going to trust the coaches on this one. I think Akina wants to turn him into an All American. Playing on both sides might not be so beneficial to his progress. I still think they could have a package or two for him. How are his hands?

Bobby, did your guy say anything about Ash? I'm curious about what kind of reps he's getting and how he's looking. I'm also curious how the team is responding to him versus the other qb's? Thanks for the info.
