Texas Longhorns

hát itt vagyunk ismét. charlie strong harmadik szezonja, két felejthető mérleg (6-7 és 5-7), illetve meglepő módon két évnyi top recruting sikerrel (átlagosan top 10-nek monandám). a keret rettentő fiatal, például a DT-k közül mindössze 3 olyan játékos van aki pályára lépett egyetemi karrierje alatt.

a play-eket sterlin gilbert fogja hívni, aki tavaly a tulsa golden hurricanes-nál is az OC/QB edző szerepet töltötte be. az offense irányításával átlagosan 39,5 pontot szereztek meccsenként (országosan 25. hely), a passz játékban 329,8 yardot szereztek (országosan 11. hely), és futásonként 171,9 yardot átlagoltak. a védelmet továbbra is vance bedford vezeti. az első évben kiemelkedően teljesített az egység: konferencia szinten az élen járt, és országosan is előkelő helyen álltak - főként a passz elleni védekezésben és a sack-eket tekintve, azonban a második évben - a sok távozónak köszönhetően - sokat szívott a csapat. 30,3 pontot és 452,6 yardot engedtek átlagosan. úgy gondolom idén tapasztalat híjján szintén meggyűlik a bajunk. a védelem és elmondható, hogy az egész csapat vezére és szószólója a tavalyi no1 OLB-ként érkező, a másodéves malik jefferson (#46). a freshman all-american LB 61 tackle-t, 2,5 sack-et, 7 TFL-t és 1 FF-el mutatkozott be.

az OL tavaly már kezdett összeállni, a futójátéknak egész hatékonyan blokkoltak: 224,8 yard mérkőzésenként (országosan 17. hely). a veterán T kent perkins, a két sophomore, a G patrick vahe és T connor williams (mindketten freshman all-american válogatottak) mellé idén úgy néz ki szintén új arcokkal pótolják a C (zack shackelford) és a másik G (sophomore junior college játékos, tristan nickelson) posztot. az egységet matt mattox edzi, aki sterlin gilbert-el karöltve érkezett austinba.

donta foreman és chris warren személyében van egy kétfejű futószörnyünk. mindketten kiemelkedően teljesítettek a tavalyi szezonban. 1151 futott yardot és 9 TD-t raktak össze ketten. tették mindezt összesen 166 labdacipelésből (átlagosan 7 yard/cipelés) és a kezdőnek számító senior jonathan gray mögött. foreman-nek van négy 100 yardos meccse, míg warren új iskolacsúcsot állított be az egy meccsen legtöbb futott yardok számát tekintve: 276 yard. mindketten 240 font körüli súlyúak.

az elkapók képességét homály fedi. papíron vannak tehetségek. jelen pillanatban a másodéves john burt emelhető ki a sorból. a 6'2 magas 184 font súlyú burt, 28 elkapásból 457 yardot szerzett. robbanékonyságával lehet neki dobálgatni a deep ball-okat. csak irányító legyen aki kiszolgálja.

david ash óta (2011-2014) várunk egy viszonylag konzisztens QB-ra. tyrone swoopes kezdett tavaly a notre dame ellen, de a rettenetes szereplés után a redhsirt freshman jerrod heard kezébe adták a gyeplőt. eleinte úgy tűnt meg van az új irányító - voltak szép momentumok, például egymaga 527 total yardot szerzett a california ellen - ám inkább földön tudta csak terrorizálni az ellenfelet. swoopes-t hatékonyan építették be a támadójátékba ("18 wheeler") mint 'short yard back'. szerepéből remekül profitált, hisz 451 futott yard mellé 12 TD párosult. idén early enrollként érkezett shane buchele ('elite 11' játékos), aki a családjába nem tervezett gyermekként született ötödikként, és az egyedüli texas longhorns fanként nőtt fel: a többi családtag mind oklahoma sooners fan.
a tavaszi edzőmérkőzésen 299 passzolt yardal és 1 TD-vel vétette magát észre. charlie strong és edzői stábja titkolja, hogy ki fog kezdeni a notre dame ellen, de én úgy vélem buchele lesz az, és swoopes-t továbbra is '18 wheeler'-ként fogják használni.

a média 'do or die'-ként emlegetni ezt a szezont charlie strong számára. a keret fiatal, én személy szerint a nagyobb áttörést jövőre várnám (az idei class is egy évvel tapasztaltabb lesz), azonban idén is lehet meglepetésben részünk - vagy nem. a támadó oldalt helyén érzem, egyedül az irányító személye és képessége kérdéses. fejlődött e tyrone swoopes pontossága? shane buchele mire lesz képes éles helyzetben, kemény ellenfelek ellen. a problémát a front seven-ben látom (inkább DL). jefferson nem fogja megmenteni egyedül ezt a részt, az ellenfél pedig várhatóan sokat fog futni. én azért kinézek a jelenlegi csapatból egy bowl szereplést.

a 2016-os nfl drafton egyetlen texas játékos kelt el a DT hassan ridgeway személyében, akit az indianapolis colts vitte el a 4-ik körben. a harmadik körbe várt játékost hamarabb vitték el, mint a baylor DT-jét, andrew billings-t, akit a második körbe jósoltak.

ridgeway a 12-ik defensive tackle játékos, akit 2000-res évek óta elvittek. 2016-ban három (és immáron ridgeway a negyedik) korábbi longhorn van rosteren: malcom brown (2015, 1kör, patriots draftolta), lamarr houston (2010, 2kör, raiders draftolta), roy miller (2009, 3kör, buccaneers draftolta).

CBS Sports: The real DBU: Florida, LSU, Miami, Ohio State, South Carolina or Texas?

...
"1. Texas: Florida and LSU often boast that they're Defensive Back U. In reality, Texas deserves the title with an impressive amount of quality depth over the past decade. Besides Earl Thomas and Michael Griffin being Pro Bowlers, the Longhorns also produced Michael Huff, Cedric Griffin, Tarell Brown, Aaron Ross, Aaron Williams and Kenny Vaccaro. In the past decade, only Alabama had more defensive backs drafted (14) than Texas (12). The Longhorns are tied with Alabama for the most first-round picks at defensive back (five). The big difference: Texas defensive backs have started 200+ more NFL games than those from Alabama since 2006. Perhaps one of these years Texas will turn it around on the field in college to mirror this NFL success in the secondary."

a hétvégén megvolt a spring game. a média által már shane buchele (early enroll true freshman) már ki van jelentve kezdőnek (299 passzolt yard, 2 TD - érdemes megtekinteni a róla összevágott felvételt.

két hétre vagyunk az NSD -től és hát mit mondjak. elég gyatrán állunk recruiting ügyileg.
epsn-nél 33., 247-nél 32., rivals-nál 42. és a scouitnál a 30-ikok vagyunk a recruiting rangsorban.
247 adat: 4 3*-os játékos és 10 3*-os játékos: elfogadhatatlan a programtól.

Best recruits

QB Shane Buechele, Arlington Lamar (6-2, 185 pounds)
Buechele is the top rated quarterback in Texas, according to 247sports. He committed to the Longhorns on Feb. 23, 2016 and is a big grab for Texas considering its recent woes at the position. Buechele, a 6-foot-2, 185-pound Arlington native, enrolled early and will have an opportunity to compete during spring practice.

OT Jean Delance, North Mesquite (6-5, 291 pounds)
Four-star offensive tackle Jean Delance committed to Texas at the Under Armour All-American game on Jan. 2. Delance's commitment adds to the Longhorns' offensive line, which is looking for more stability. Delance is a 6-foot-5, 291-pound lineman from Mesquite. He is ranked as No. 10 offensive tackle and No. 98 overall recruit. He'll be able to fight for a spot on the line during his freshman year.

WR Collin Johnson, Valley Christian (San Jose, Calif.) (6-6, 200 pounds)
Johnson is a 6-foot-6, 205-pound wide receiver from San Jose, California. He's another early enrollee. His size give him an opportunity to make an impact early. He enters the Texas class as the No. 40 overall wide receiver in the nation and No. 198 overall rated recruit, according to 247Sports. Johnson is the son of Texas' legend Johnnie Johnson.

Biggest potential sleeper

DE Andrew Fitzgerald, Flower Mound Marcus (6-5, 250 pounds)
Andrew Fitzgerald maybe a four-star defensive end, but he comes into the class a late-bloomer. The 6-foot-5, 250-pound defensive lineman from Flower Mound didn't receive an offer from Texas until Sept. 24 and committed on Nov. 12. He showed his potential at the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl. Fitzgerald could be the biggest potential sleeper in the Longhorns' class because of size and how late his recruitment began.

Biggest need still unfilled

Defensive line
The Longhorns still have defensive needs. Texas needed offensive line depth and that position has filled in well with Delance and three other commits in the class. The Longhorns will needed added depth on the defensive line. Texas has three defensive line commitments - two defensive ends and one defensive tackle. The Longhorns could add depth at defensive tackle after the loss of junior Hassan Ridgeway to the NFL draft. Texas didn't have a defensive tackle commit in the 2015 class and needs to add depth to the position in this class.

a dallasnews.com összeszedte charlie strong fontosabb megnyilvánulásait a szezon kezdetétől a végéig. érdemes átlapozni. optimizmus, csalódás, óvatos kijelentések.

The best Charlie Strong quotes of 2015, including bright future, needing to develop consistency, fans deserve more

Excerpt from Strong's post-Notre Dame/pre-Rice press conference on Sept. 7:
Strong of offensive struggles against Notre Dame:
"(Offensive struggles) cannot happen," Strong said. "We have some talented players there ... We have some athletes there on offense there. We've just got to do a better job of spreading the ball around and making sure that the right guys get the touches."

Excerpt from Strong press conference on Sept 8 announcing offensive changes:
Strong on making offensive staff changes after losing to Notre Dame:
"There's no reason for us to go out and perform at the level we've been performing. I expect more, want more. The fans deserve more. All of our letter-winners deserve more. There's been a lot of players that have come through the program that have played for the pride and the tradition and it really means something to them. And that's what we have to get our focus back to."

Excerpt from Strong's post-California press conference on Sept. 19:
Strong on the loss to one-point loss to the Golden Bears:
"This one here hurts because you watch our team and you watch Jerrod take off, and there's a minute and 11 and we go and score and an extra point is like automatic. I didn't even look. What I'm saying, I'm on the headset saying, we've got a minute and 11 and what we're going to do on defense because we have to stop them ... Then I look up and all of a sudden I see one of their players running down the field, and I was like, Oh my God ... I hope this is the one that turned the corner for us."

Excerpt from Strong's post-Oklahoma State/pre-TCU press conference on Sept. 28:
Strong on if he feels unlucky:
"I don't always [feel unlucky] - but you know what, a lot of times we've got to create our own, and we've got to create plays ... we had our opportunities."

Excerpt from Strong's pre-Oklahoma press conference on Oct. 5:
Strong on whose fault the 1-4 start was:
"I never, will ever say it was Coach Brown's fault, and it wasn't his fault. It is on me. You look at it, we have the players. It's about us coaching. It has nothing to do with the last staff. They're no longer here. It's about what we have, and now it's about us working and let's get them better. Never once was it ever on coach. It's on us and it's on our staff. It's on me as a head football coach."

Excerpts from Strong's post-Oklahoma press conference on Oct. 10:
Strong on the players telling him the win was for him:
"It felt really good, and I told them, you don't have to do it for me because I wanted them to do it for themselves, but it's special to hear that, because what they've heard, just like everyone else, they hear the media; they hear what is said, and so what they want to say is, you know something, we'll show what our coach is all about."
Strong on the attention on the Longhorns before the game:
"Everybody makes a big deal about nothing, but at the end of the day this is the University of Texas; this is Charlie Strong's program ... The thing about it is I had each and every week get a team prepared to go play. I had to have a team focused, a team that has the desire and the determination when they take that field like today, that was the University of Texas. Today was our day."

Excerpts from Strong's pre-Kansas State press conference on Oct. 19:
Strong on knowing what to expect from the team:
"I wish I had that answer for you. You're right, it's just -- you'd like to develop some consistency and hope that you gain momentum and you just continue to improve and get better and better. Now with this week off, now you'd love to continue to play so that now you have a little momentum, just continue to play on. But you know, we had to get them ready and had to have a game plan where we can go and execute a game plan and where you have some success executing it."
Strong on if the week after Texas' win over Oklahoma was the most enjoyable:
"I don't know if a vacation has been added - but it was just that - I guess so much had happened prior to that game, and when you talk about so much was said, and a lot of times I don't listen to it because you just can't listen to everything that's said. But when you talk about losing your team, our team, we had never lost our team. Talk about losing the locker room, and that's what -- where you kind of sit back and kind of go like, wow, I guess somebody is in the locker room with them when they have no idea what's going on ... and now you go and get this win, and the guys were just -- they were so -- I was so excited for our players more than anything because so much had been said about them."

Excerpt from Strong's pre-Texas Tech press conference on Nov. 23:
Strong on wanting to play Texas A&M again:
"I would love to play Texas A&M. I just think that you look at it, and you look at two in-state rivals, it's a big-time game for us, and I would love for it to happen. But a lot of things have to be worked out for it to be that, but you look at a Thanksgiving Day game, and you would love to see that happen."
Strong refuting Miami coaching job rumors:
"I never run from anything. You just grind it out ... I told our players that I'm not going anywhere. I've made a commitment here, and we are going to see this program through and we're going to get it back on track."

Excerpt from Strong's post-Texas Tech press conference on Nov. 26:
Strong on the future:
"You look at what we have, and I think the future is very bright. I know what's ahead, and what's good is that these players, you look at tonight, and just look at it out there on the field with mostly young players out there playing, so now they understand just how hard they have to go play, and you have to play like that for 60 minutes, and more than anything, you just have to step up and make plays."

Excerpt from Strong's pre-Baylor Monday press conference on Nov. 30:
Strong on recruiting:
"I'll only say this: We have until February to go chase some down, and a lot of times guys are going to leave the state, but still, though, once everything is over with, then you've got a chance to really just go to them and bear down, then you go chase them and go run them down. We're going to get the guys that we need to go get, and some we're going to lose, but still, though, we can't be afraid to go recruit them, and we're not going to be afraid to do that."

Excerpt from Strong's post-Baylor press conference on Dec. 5:
Strong on how the win over the Bears will help during the offseason:
"This is a spring board for the spring. Now we have something that we can build on. Something that we can take into the offseason. "[I'm] not pleased with the year we had, you look at it, we go beat Oklahoma and then you bounce back and go on the road and go beat Baylor. I don't have an answer for this team. I wish I did. But I'm just so happy. I'm happy for our football team and this whole program ... I don't want to make any promises about next year but we have a lot to look forward to."

Az új OC, sterlin gilbert önéletrajz:

"Prior to his appointment at Tulsa, Gilbert was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterback coach for one season at Bowling Green State University. In his only year, the Falcons gained 432.9 yards to rank 42nd nationally for total yards, while gaining 173 yards on the ground and 259 yards passing. He helped coachBGSU to a victory over South Alabama in the 2014 Camellia Bowl.

Before his stint at Bowling Green, Gilbert served as the offensive coordinator at Eastern Illinois for two seasons, where in his second year was named FootballScoop FCS Coordinator of the Year in 2013. The Panthers led the nation in yards (589.5) and points per game (48.2) in 2013. In addition, EIUaveraged 372.4 passing yards and 217.1 yards on the ground.

In his first season, Gilbert directed the Panthers up-tempo offense that ranked sixth in the nation in passing, eighth in total offense and 12th in scoring. EIUaveraged 470.9 yards per game, 36.5 points and set several school records, including touchdown passes with 34.

Under the guidance of Gilbert, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo was named the Walter Payton Award winner, the FCS equivalent of the Heisman Trophy - given to the nation's best player Garoppolo threw for 5,050 yards and 53 touchdowns in 2013 and during his two seasons under Gilbert's guidance passed for 8,873 yards and 84 scores. Garoppolo was a second round draft choice by the New England Patriots in the 2014 NFL Draft."
