those arrogant assholes



We have a grad transfer from Texas that started many games for them and was projected to be their starting Center this year. Some Texass media member was asked about him on a local radio station the other day and his response summed up Texas in a nutshell: He was a little undersized there, but maybe he'll be a good fit at Arkansas...the same Arkansas that had the largest oline in football...the same Arkansas team that prison raped them in the trenches a year and a half ago in the bowl game.... It is so absurd that you wonder if it's shtick, but I assure you it's not.

Cool story bro. But I doubt you're quoting correctly.

Raulerson arrived at Texas undersized (underweight). He never was able to consistently make the starting lineup and tried to go to UCLA. Didn't work out. Arkansas wanted to add depth to their line and gave him a shot.

Post the link though and we can all hear what the guy said.

I doubt he would have beaten out the true freshman who was supposed to start at C (before he got hurt).

The Texas o-line has been historically bad the last few years. An absolute disaster. When Raulerson did get on the field, he was the bottom of the barrel. He was very highly recruited and by all counts is a great young man. He'll be a success in life, but it will have nothing to do with football.
