Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 4:46 pmESPN Radio reports that Southlake QB Greg Mcelroy has changed his commitment from Texas Tech to Alabama. Wonder how much the Cotton Bowl influenced his decision?

The Leach has a fun-to-watch offense, but Mike Shula knows the NFL game, too. If I was a QB and had a choice, it would be a no-brainer.
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 4:55 pmAlabama thought they were going to be able to bag Mustain, but he recommitted to Arkansas. Also last week a top Alabama HS QB committed to Arkansas. I am sure that Alabama was able to promise any QB interested the world.
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 5:02 pmI agree to an extent that a lot of Tech QB's are products of the system, but if i was a talented QB I would give Tech strong consideration. As a QB at Tech you will get to show all the scouts pretty much every kind of throw a QB has to make and you will be get to show how you read a lot of secondary defenses/looks.

Well, I'm sure the UA fans are disappointed-- with all this competition new QB Casey [deleted] may not get back on the field.
Does Mustain have a chant, yet?
One game, UA co-ed fans were chanting for Casey...
" We want [deleted]! We want [deleted]! We want [deleted]! "
Is it true Casey's roomate is college teammate Brett Goode?

Posted: Wed Jan 18, 2006 9:47 amThey'll be better, to be sure, but I don't think we'll here "we're No. 1" instead of "pig sooey" any time soon.

It's a real shame.
Leach is such a class act.
