Is it just me...

or does it seem like Gilbert Moye kinda blows. I sure hope I’m wrong. Just seems like the kid isn’t fitting anywhere.

It’s starting to look like a cautionary tale about not getting too worked up over the names we see on these recruiting lists until they strap them on.

I think what we've called him in the past...

…is an athlete without a position. Sounds like he actually did alright yesterday (Gabe says the fumble was a really bad call, that he was on his back when the ball came out), but in general it sounds like he doesn’t have the consistent hands to play RB or WR, doesn’t quite have the speed to play DB, and doesn’t quite have the size to play LB. We mentioned him recently on Twitter, and Kim English stuck up for him, said he was a freak of an athlete…but he still needs a position to play, and that seems to be the issue.

As for recruiting lists…well, right now just look at the guys who are (or were) looking at losing their redshirts this year. Jack Meiners (3 stars), Justin Britt (2), Donovan Bonner (2), Michael Sam (2), L’Damian Washington (2)…Marvin Foster (2) was threatening to break into the rotation before his knee injury. We signed eight 2-star players in the last class, and four of them (a fifth if you include what Foster would have done) might play as true freshmen. Pretty insane. And yes…meanwhile, Moye is our highest-rated signee from the state of Texas under Pinkel, and he’s struggling to find his place.

Sweet baby geebus

I just rolled over the Andre Ware link, saw the URL, and realized that I’d be wasting my time to go any farther. Oklahoma. 8-4. Uh, yeah.

the thought process:

“What’s conventional wisdom? That OU’s O-line might be shaky? So if I go to the extreme end of that opinion and say that their O-line will make a team with Sam Bradford, Jermaine Gresham, Ryan Broyles, Demarco Murray, Trent Williams, Gerald McCoy, and a sick defense go 8-4, that will get me on TV more, right? Sign me up!”

He’s the College Football Live version of Skip Bayless. Which is sad, because there’s a reason I don’t watch any show with Skip Bayless. I actually like watching CFL, but he’s on about 2/3 of the time now.

of the top 3 south teams

i could see osu going 8-4 and maybe texas if they fall apart a bit, but i can’t see any way ou loses more than 2 games

btw- joel meyers was on the radio here in denver this week. he was hyping osu to win the south and zack robinson as a heisman contender. also said mizzou had as good a chance as anyone to win the north. he also admitted to being a mizzou homer. i would love a osu-mizzou championship game

I don't think OSU can do it...

…but they’ve got a pretty clear path to it. Beat Texas at home, lose to OU on the road, and hope that OU slips up elsewhere because of temporary O-line troubles. A three-way 7-1 tie would doom them like it doomed Tech last year, but if they can beat UT and tie with just them, they’re in.

That said, I don’t see it. They’re going to be quite good, but I’m not sure they’ll be that good.

i don't think they can either

to me, their season sets up a lot like mizzou in 08. lots of attention, but maybe not quite ready for prime time. i think 3 losses is likely, 4 if we can pay them back for last year, which wouldn’t surprise me with the history of that series
