    Can’t find thread but anyone saying Killebrew was as bad as Wheeler is nuts. Proof in link. Kill-ebrew. Later Wheeler, weakest link on team.

    That was a nice reminder of just how good that team was !!! Think about Ramonce wasting his talent as well. Talk about lightening in a bottle.

    Studs all over the field, at every position. What a team.

    Killebrew and Wheeler have similar skill sets. A huge difference between them is the scheme. We played a ton of 3-LB sets in 2005 and virtually none now (unless you count the B as a LB). So the numbers that Killebrew was putting up with 10 TFL and his sacks and what-not have been taken over by non-LB positions by the 2018 group. That 2005 defense was very "bend but don't break" even though we played mediocre, run-first offenses that would be swallowed up by Big 12 offenses today. Mizzou and Tech were the only real spread teams.

    2005 Texas was a top 5 defense prior to bowl season (USC caused us to fall out of the top 5). Not bad for a "bend-don't-break" defense. Sure, we didn't play a lot of spread offenses, but neither did anyone else back then.

    Oh I'm not denying that we had a good defense. But we only played 4 teams prior to USC who were in the Top-50 in total offense. Including the aforementioned spread ones. ULL was #52, if you want to push my rankings. We got to play CU twice, and pummeled KU at home in the "retributive whining anti-Mangino" game. OK State put up 225 yards on us by halftime when their average was 324 for the season. Glad VY and Ramonce took that one over.

    In 2018 for total offense, we played #1 (twice), #8, #10, #12, #18, and #22.

    Go re-watch that OkSt game. They were getting exceptionally lucky in the first half, catching deflected passes (off their own receivers) for TDs and ridiculous stuff like that. Yes they got the yardage, but it was very fluky.

    Why is this even a topic? Wheeler has finished Killbrew has been gone for 15 years. These are not professional athletes, they were students who represented your school.

    Sorry, I hate it when a bunch of no talent bums trash a kid because he wasn't as good as they wanted him to be.

    Get a life, or stick to the NFL.

    Because you are a no talent bum talking crap about a young man that represented the University of Texas. Deal with it.

    Your mother is a no talent bum.

    And “represented”? Lol. Is that a euphemism for “didn’t get arrested?” If not, do you just mean someone that went to school here? Because if so, you just criticized a young man that represented the University of Texas...which you almost certainly didn’t attend. I’d bet money on it.

    Go kick rocks you senile dbag.

    Maybe, oh omniscient one, if you took the time to couch your opinions in more nuanced language, you would receive less criticism. Just a thought.

    I don’t mind criticism as long as it’s valid. What he wrote was garbage and I stand by my assessment that he’s a senile dbag.

    Also, he instigated it. Why is his personal insult okay but not mine? Answer: Because you’re obsessed with me and almost certainly jealous of my handle.

    Lol, you want to compare rings? Where would you like to meet?

    And it sounds like I struck a nerve, maybe that is because you are a no talent bum who thinks the he is a tough guy for calling out a STUDENT athlete.

    I wonder which part struck closer to home? No Talent, or bum? I'm going with both.

    Maybe you should show a little more respect to those that put it on the line every day for The University.

    Did you really use a "Your mamma" joke? That might be the lamest comeback I've ever seen. I take it back, your too stupid to even be a no talent bum. Probably still lives with his mom.

    “I take it back, your too stupid to even be a no talent bum.”

    Definitely not a Longhorn.

    Keep kissing those rings Uncle Rico.

    Lol, Anytime you want to compare class rings let me know.

    In the mean time keep your worthless comments about student athletes to yourself.

    Oh, and get a job and get out of your mother's house.

    SHOW YOUR AG TAG TO PROVE YOU ARE WORTHY!

    Not everyone who attends classes at Texas is "representing" the school in the same way. People who are regularly out in front of tens of thousands of members of a live audience and hundreds of thousands of viewers can rightfully be considered "representing" UT in a way that someone giving a lab presentation in front of a TA and 30 other students is not. Doesn't mean representing is better or worse than not, it just means words have meaning.

    Although I disagree about them being immune from criticism.

    Immune from criticism? No, they aren't.

    Should the expression of said criticism be tempered through the lens of student athlete, and not paid professional? Yes it should.

    One of them is totally gonna convince the other they were wrong about everything. That's usually how these debates work out.

    You’ve yet to address my criticism. Name a starter on D worse than Wheeler.

    So you rode the pine on a good team? Let’s hear about your individual awards. I’ll compare those any day.

    Insults are easy when you make them up. If we’re assuming, I’d say you live in an old person’s home and stare at your trophies for hours each day with your only happiness derived from nostalgia or you live in a rundown house that you’ve lived in for 50 years with an unhappy wife and complain on end about rising taxes.

    Last thing: did you go to UT?

    Ag tag... sounds like a dermatological issue and something one should get burnt off by a doctor before it gets out of control.
