They have the players. It’s the style of play that their know for that is holding them back. They’re a finesse team, and championship teams are not finesse teams.

That’s why we didn't pursue Evan Stewart or Walter Nolan. 2 areas of need, but they weren’t culture fits.

Two reasons Oregon is a winner.

1) Phil Knight

This doesn't mean Oregon has Texas money, just that they have a mega-booster.

2) They are the only school on the Left Coast that gives a care

They won't be so great in the B1G. They have piled up winning seasons in the PAC - where nobody cares. They'll be good, but not great going forward. They won't rival Ohio St or Michigan or even Penn St.

Exactly. It worked in the PAC.

They have skill players but lack the offensive and defensive lines like Ohio State that held them to negative 23 yards rushing.

They will always be a paper tiger until those needs are fixed.

DL was very good. Our OL was way overhyped, yes.

You have an appropriate handle to be hating on Texans.

Where did he say he wasn’t impressed with Texas culture?


Well who is impressed? 20 years of failure and even all that money and you can’t get a good coach or win anything. Texas is a joke
