Somebody needs to tweet him back and tell him we are still here, and where the heck has he been? Tell him to get to Cow Town now...
At this point, I want as many QBs and lineman on this team as possible. Nothing is a sure thing for either one of those groups.

andrew has had a frame similar to lucas niang since his sophomore year.
the struggle for him his first two years in high school were carrying too much bad weight that hurt his movement and his conditioning. the raw tools were there very similar to big ross in his high school tape. the was real discussion as to whether coker had a shot at being a tackle in college or if it was straight to guard.
andrew kills it between his junior and senior year and you can see the difference between his junior year and this year. he looks like a legit tackle prospect now, he can get out in front on screens and when taylor asked him to pull, was able to consistently get to the second level when blocking, and you could most importantly see his confidence grow as he started to become a dominant high school lineman.
i do agree with froglifeyo that i can see andrew following a path very similar to lucas and start inside (would love to see him next to niang) and then slide outside later in his career.
oh, and if andrew happens to see this thread notice the job big marcus is doing protecting brady's right side. mutliple super bowl rings for those tcu nfl offensive tackles so they are not only drawing checks but doing so for winning teams.

Thanks, that totally erases the last 10-15 years. So are we FWIW.

They both seem smart enough to get it.

Powell’s Twitter background is now he and his family at TCU.

Wish it would manifest itself at DE/LB but I’ll take it. Not TCU related but looks like Baylor is gonna lose out on Dru Mathis to Oregon.
I get the feeling we will never hear that name again after signing day
What about the wrong message to Collins. Truly all 3 are going to be good, and the smarter/most calm under pressure will win the job. But yes Powel should get his shot too. And Backups have played pivotal rolls for the Frogs over the past few years... plus if he isn't 2 deep material with this present group, sure he'll get the occasional run pass option play.

It is one thing to pay attention and go where your parents are comfortable, but changing your mind based on what your trainer is saying is a zero. You’ve got to have more mental fortitude and self confidence than that.

Collins was a transfer in and has far less eligibility than the others..I know our pitch to him wasn’t that we wouldn’t recruit any other QBs
It's really hard to get this thru many, on this site, as they are so hung up on skilled position players only. A really well recruited and coached OL can turn a 3* into an apparent 4* looking QB or RB over night. The same on the DL... makes 3* LBs and DBs look like diamonds in the rough recruits when they show up bigger than expected on Saturdays.
P5 teams have little problem collecting adequate skilled players to make big plays. it's the trenches that is a struggle to achieve enough quality to finish in the top 10, which we've been able to do 6 times since 2007, not to mention 2 were Top 5 teams.

Ironic since Matt Rhule passed up the Oregon job to go to Baylor.

Seems like they should do that every year TBH.
