5. Roddrick Muckelroy. Absolutely blew up Lane on a blitz.

Blitzing was supposed to be illegal in this game. Lane was standing upright and flat footed as he probably wasnt expecting an LB to be filling the hole that quickly. Congratulations though, your player got the better of ours by cheating.

We all know how much I despise the longhorns, but I have to agree with the poster who asked everyone to lay off Charles' speaking ability. Not cool at all.

from what i understand, linebackers were not supposed to blitz, so lane wasnt expecting a hit.

everyone is leaving grimes off their lists. he absolutely owned his man all game. i'm sure frost would have done the same had he not got hurt.

Let's compare J-Mike and Tellus:

1. Speed Big Edge J-Mike.
2. Height Big Edge Tellus.
3. Hands. Push. They are equal.

Strength-Big Edge Martellus
Blocking Ability-Big Edge Martellus

You seem to forget that TEs have to line up and block every once in awhile too. Martellus is 3 times the blocker Finley ever will be. You arent rated the #7 player in the country out of high school as a TE based on pass catching ability alone.

jmike will be more of an h-back like d thomas.

Lashawn Vation looked pretty good.

Thanks, nice to see you and other aggies showing the kind of class that the vast majority of aggies would like to see displayed by aggie supporters.

Where were yall when Hostile and Frantastic wouldn't stop posting about how retarded Vincent Young is and making fun of his interview a couple days ago?

And those of you blasting BOM for posting re the hornsdown sign: if you are familiar with this site, aggies don't like copying OU.

od is an okie..fyi

As for mocking Charles or VY for their interview abilities, hey, I have kids at home that are more eloquent.

These guys strike me as the jocks that had grades handed to them in high school because they went to a football factory school. Have you been to the North Shore stadium where Charles went to school? They have a large screen with instant replay. The stadium is immaculate, and the press box was very plush for a high school game (I was stringing a game for a buddy of mine that is a sports editor).

I went to school with guys that were dumber than a box of hair trimmings but somehow "got by" in class because they could tote the rock, slam dunk, were all-state in band, etc. Athletes that can't talk remind me of that situation.

rock..

that happens in very school.

Charles is from Port Arthur, North Shore is in Galena Park.

Still dumb as a box of rocks.

"2. Lane - poorly used. tons of upside"

Interesting way of putting it.

Overall the Horn recruits looked pretty good. A little disappointed in Colt who looked like he had a serious case of happy feet and suspect arm strength, I guess I just assumed if Tan on Tan said that he sucked he would probably be the next coming of Joe Montana.

Aggies - looked like Fran brought in some much needed help with this class.
If Ja Porky Lane can shag a ton or two he could turn out to be a monster..

Don't forget that as you praise Muckelroy for his hit on Lane, a few plays later Lane pushed his a** to the ground on a brutal stiff arm on the sweep. Lane does not appear to be NFL bound but he will be a great change of pace and wear alot of defenses down. He only touched the ball 4 times and averaged 7.5 yards a carry. Charles averaged 4.9 yards a carry, but remember he won't always being playing against smu, utah st, tcu, and new mexico recruits at the next level.

For Ags to say C. Brown wasn't impressive is pretty silly. He was always around the ball and in on seemingly every tackle. He's a good one.

Morrow was the best receiver on the field.

A. Brown was solid and showed he may be a little better than a 3 star.

Colt McCoy is a back up and nothing more. He doesn't have the arm strength.

The horn recruits looked good last night. Charles was everything I thought he would be and more. I'm not sure of Finley's exact size and speed but he put on a much better show than Sweed did a few years back. I presume he'll be a TE on the college level but I could see him lining up out wide if he worked on his quickness and didn't bulk up too much. No offense, but this guy seems to be everything Sweed isn't and that is a good thing. McCoy will be a capable backup in the Chance Mock mold. At the present time his arm strength is suspect, though. I missed quite a bit of the first half and cannot comment on the other horn pledges.

First and foremost, how in the hell does a top prospect allow themselves to get complacent and balloon up like a whale after signing an athletic scholarship to play at a DI school? To say I was disappointed in Lane's physical appearance last night does not quite sum up my feelings. A RS year is in order for him. My main reason for tuning into the game last night was Howard Morrow and he didn't let me down. If he continues to improve over the next few years he could rewrite the record books at A&M. A Brown excelled in coverage although he needs a year in the weight room. Brantley had an excellent punt. I was hoping to see more of him last night.
