Listen to the actual radio interview. Hoge's got the shovel out and a big smile on his face. http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afcsouth/0-4-141/Merril-Hoge-rips-Vince-Young--again.html
Young may be a bust in the pros (so far), but its pretty obvious when you watch Hoge that he personally loathes VY.
He sounds like one of those little kids that idolizes a player & then gets refused an autograph, so from then on he spews hate about him every time he is mentioned.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but people seldom loathe others for no reason at all, so what do you imagine Hoge's reasoning for singling out Vince would be?
Call Hoge what you want, but the truth is, he was spot on when it comes to Young.

Hoge is a douche and an asshat. Whether he is right or not, the guy shouldn't have a job. He is horrible.
I really have no clue.
It could be anything really. I've heard from some people that he somehow has close ties at Oklahoma, though I don't know why he would. But if true, he could just hate Young because he went to Texas.
Who really knows how the mind of a guy who had a thousand concussions works.
Maybe Hoge got tired of all the hate mail he received when he refused to worship at the VY alter. This commentary might be a bitter reflection back to the VY-homers. There has always been a certain venom that the VY crowd injects into conversations about the QB. Does the drink you served taste bitter now that you are forced to drink it yourself?

vy needs to learn how to throw the ball instead of selling sausage. the madden curse lives. he said he didn't believe in curses but you can't deny history. however, it's not like we have a top 10 qb right now.
This really hurts to say....
2008 TD/INT W/L
vy- 1/2 1-0
Schaub- 1/5 0-2
ouch. 'cause we all know how bad vy is.

I'll trade jim schwartz for richard smith in a heart beat
Schaub never tried to take himself out of the game, even though the Sage supporters would have liked to see that.

Thats kinda how I feel about Reggie and Jesus Young. I had it rammed down my throat so long about how we "passed Jordan for Bowie" that I hate the two with a passion. Eh, Im ok with it.
P.S, If we had taken Young, imagine how nasty the Titans D is with Van Den Bosh, Haynesworth, and Mario on the D line.
I don't get the anger and resentment over Vince. I don't get it!
Nope, that's obvious, the only question is WHY you don't?I don't get it!

We had locals buying FULL PAGE ads in the paper BEGGING McNair to take VY for God's sake!!!!!!
OK.... Just what would it take to qualify as more than a LITTLE weird? Off the top of your head, list how many times you've EVER seen that for a guy w/o a single NFL snap?That wasn't really a big deal to me. A little weird, but not that big a deal.

My real problem with the whole situation is that Mario Williams was DESTROYED in the local & national media and he didn't even do anything wrong!
All the VY & Bush lovers were on this board villifying Mario. Thank god most of them are gone now cuz both of thier guys suck & Mario is a Pro Bowl talent.
And this is coming from a life-long UT fan who considers Young as the greatest college QB of all time. Just try to imagine how pissed off I would be
if that weren't the case....
I've admitted my wrong headedness in wanting Ressie BUsh and I've repented for my sins against Mario. I am so happy to haev been so wrong.
But really VY you think he's the greatest college QB of all time? Why? Tommie Frazier won 2 national titles, Leinart won 2 and went to 3 national titles? If it's because he went to UT then I can see why you'd think that, but I don;t think he is.
