I really hope Davis has recommitted himself to the team and to football. His performance in the bowl game was truly awful.

I second what Jeff said.

One of the problems for a guy like Davis is there really isn't anybody he can look up to at his position who can be a mentor (Think Jaxon Shipley next offseason.)

Davis is one of those guys who could benefit from a guy he likes and trusts and who has accomplished the type of things Davis should accomplish. The Longhorns just don't have that player at receiver right now.

All I can say is I've seen him throw pretty balls in practice. He has the arm to do it.

I think he can do it. You could see Ash operating in two modes when he was on the field last year. One looked like his CPU was stuck in a loop and often resulted in late throws, hesitation, bad decisions, int's and the general groaning of 100,000 people in DKR. The other looked like he was just reacting to what he saw, and in those instances he would flash his athleticism while throwing BB's or make plays with his feet. Think of how well he would execute the package plays and pre determined throws from those packages. The kid was money.

I'm not saying that he's going to be dealing like Colt McCoy during the 08 season, but I think he will make major strides this year. Perhaps even be considered outright good by the end of the year. He has all the tools in that he could need to do the job well. He just needs practice and game reps, and tons of them like every other kid.

Put me in the camp of Ash gets it done.

I'm not worried about the deep passing game. Even last year we saw that at least the chances were there.

At the very least this passing game needs some consistency to be able to move the chains on third down when the running game isn't an option.
