Horns247 Board

Nice try at trolling, but my memory is quite good thanks.....

No, your memory blows. A few idiots bawled on Hornfans and Orangebloods after the Missouri game in 2004. That doesn't equal a majority and many of us never doubted the guy. So try stupid somewhere else.

After the OU game that year, I remember sitting at games from then on out listening to fans say this. So say what you will, and call me what you will, but I do know what I am talking about. It's funny how fickle some of you really are when it comes to these memories.

I was expanding, you can't put 2+2 can you? This board is as bad as OB.....

Who is being fickle? You've changed your story from "it was a majority" to "some people in the stands near me for a few games" and you've attempted to lump posters on this board into. Whine how you'd like, but keep the rest of us out of it.

Texas should take a QB prospect in every single recruiting class. Period. By taking three in the last two the 2013 class affords Harsin the luxury of going with a prospect with more upside that will potentially take multiple years to develop. That is how I see Swoopes. Yes at 17 he does not look like Vince Young and predictably is struggling at certain parts of these prospect camps.

Realistically he would not be called upon to start until the 2015 season at the earliest. Can he be a much more refined prospect three years from now? I think so.

The only issue I have is his ranking among other prospects in the state. He does not look like the top one or two players in the state and that ranking by some is creating unfair comparisons and expectations.

He is what he is. A young, unrefined prospect with some decent athletic attributes that is being added to our pipeline at QB. Someone that would most likely be ok with redshirting and spending time developing. A good fit for what we need in this class.

You are an idiot

Good post and this is the interesting part. There are those around him that apparently want him to play early.
