This changes everything

IMO, Reggie Bush is the next coming of Raghib Ismail. A stud who could do a lot of things in college but wasn't an every down player. How does that translate to the #1 overall pick? Bush is not going to carry the ball 25+ times a game. Are we going to pay 1st overall money to a guy who's going to get ~15-20 touches a game? Are we going to replace Jerome Mathis with Reggie Bush on kickoff returns? Mathis has a higher career avg. mark.

Vince Young had the highest QB rating of all Div-I QBs, ahead of Leinhart. He looks like a stronger version of Michael Vick with a more accurate throw. His motion is awkward but pretty quick and his passes are on the money. How many times this year did a defender get a clear shot at him and whiff, either because of his strength or speed? How many times did we see David Carr do the same thing? Young is the real deal and if he comes out, I say good-bye to the gun shy Carr and his $8 million option and hello to the gun-slinger Vince Young. He wasn't a one game wonder, his QB rating and 29-2 record proves that.

Yeah right.......The awesome teams in the Big 12 would have shut Bush down weekly.

I know Fresno St. and the Pac 10 couldn't shut down the likes of Young. He has made better teams look stupid.

Teams in the Big 12 (TAMU, OU, UT, and now TTU) are always in the top 15 in recruiting classes year-in-year-out. The 3 conferences with the best defenses are Big 10, SEC, and Big 12.

Find the top defenses in the nation and you'll find the top 25 is full of Big 10, SEC and Big 12 defenses. How many SEC or Big 12 defenses prior to the Rose Bowl did USC face? How many Big 10 defenses did USC face? As many as UT did.

Thanks for playing.

You are not in touch with reality.

Why? b/c some of you are afraid to start over? I hate to break it to you but with a 2-14 record we've started over involuntarily and drastic changes need to be made. We would have to package more to NO for that pick but any aggressive NFL exec with a 2-12 record and 3 prospects like this would consider it.

I agree that maybe CC and McNair aren't aggressive but that has shown in their aggressiveness of updating this OL that we have. I'm tired of hearing "These guys look like their gelling" or "I've seen much improvement" or "Lets give him another look next year to see if he improves."

Aren't ya'll tired of those explanations?

Maybe Reggie can just dive up the middle. Didn't he dive like 7 or 8 yards last night in that touchdown? I swear he jumped from just inside the 5 yard line and landed a few yards in the endzone.

Yeah, that's what I thought about after I said that we didn't have to use him for goal-line situations. Shoot, that's the best time to use him. Just let him jump over everybody, lol.

Did anyone else notice that he landed right on his head when he did that? I guess durability might not be such a problem.
