I have been observing this site for quite sometime and have often found great, honest, straightforward commentary as well as some good suggestions by the readers and posters along the way.  Not to mention of late, our wishful thinking for changes at the OC position which have got me to thinking.  What would we look for?  I know there have been various thoughts on the subject and various names have been mentioned.  What about darkhorse candidates?  Case in point:  In all, ACU set or tied an incredible 82 DIV II records during the 2007 season.  Including Div II's first ever 3,500 yd passer, 2,000 yd runner and 1,000 yd receiver on the same team in the same season.  And just for that extra something they ended up with (2)1,000 yd. receivers.  

I know it's division II, but they run a similiar one back offense we're used to seeing.  The team put up 73 points in their most recent 2nd round playoff game and lost!  Does anyone else have any darkhorse names?

I don't know if this has any truth to it or not, but I found this on another blog site:

*Looks like the Brantley's are having 2nd thoughts as reported earlier...if so, Texas is in trouble for QB depth next year. Sherrod Harris & John Chiles (ATH) may get a shot at backing up Colt McCoy (still injured too) soon. Brantley's dad played at Florida & is still good friends with Bob Stoops from his coaching days at Florida too. John Brantley has said he prefers to redshirt his 1st year anyway, but this kid is a big-time QB recruit. See what happens...*

"There's not a lot to talk about right now," said Mr. Brantley. "The only thing that's been brought up is the question about distance. I don't know how serious that is right now but when he gets back we're going to sit down and talk about it. If that's a problem we need to talk about it. We just want to make sure he's doing the right thing."

"We still feel good about everything but Johnny has brought up a little bit the distance and that's what's got everybody thinking," he said. "When he gets back, we're going to make him sit down and tell us if that's a problem. If it is, everyone needs to know."

"But I don't even think there's a situation. If there is, if it comes to a decision or a change, it will be done as soon as possible. That's just the philosophy of our family. We try to be ethical people and we're going to do what's right. If distance is a problem and Johnny decides something else, it will be done right away. I can guarantee it. We won't let time pass because Texas has obligations to do things and Johnny has obligations. We've been by the book with this whole process and we're not going to change now."
