Wow what can I possibly say about that pitiful show this evening.

I know I predicated 42-7 final score, but even though I almost called it spot on, I was shocked by that pitiful performance.

BLM is worse than a "deer in the headlights"! He never looks away from his planned primary receiver and the opposition keys on this!

He also can not run when a play breaks down and just fires away no matter the situation.

Our "special teams" should apply for handicapped status! What is with running sideline to sideline?
Just run up the field and if you only gain two yards it is still better than lost yardage.

Our non-existent "D" is so small and slow my family and I could barely stand to watch.

I was planning on returning for at least one more game, but unless our "overvalued" coach puts in JW I seriously doubt I'll be back this year.

Truly a pitiful performance and I hope Sam Bradford and the Sooners show JJ how you attack and defend the effing Frogs!

BTW what a rude bunch of jerks attend that so-called U in FW!

Thank the dear Lord for my USC "Fighting Methodists"!

I almost threw up when he sent that "oh catch" to the purple guy for the TD. That was [deleted].

Willis should be given a chance, I dont care who JJ is. It'a a joke, we deserve better for $2M. I'm smart enough to figure out this is a losing year, but come on..we will not win again this season.

BLM is not our QB of the future. 5INT's and that crap, give me a break. JJ's guy needs to be on the bench for the rest of the season and learn some things.

BLM had a BM right on the field. Get him out ASAP before we are DOA.

Its not BLM's fault that he is starting. BLM was June's only scholarship QB recruit that June brought into this class and so he was the annoited one from the get-go. June wanted to get the experience thing out of the way early so he decided to start him now and let the chips fall where they may. It is my opinion that June never really considered any of the other QB options despite the reported competition. He didn't want a QB controversy so Willis was never an option. Willis still had two years left and starting him this year would make it impossible to bring in BLM as the main QB next year if BLM had been redshirted. If he played Logan Turner and Turner performed well than it would be tough to start BLM in place of him next year without controversy developing. I personally would have had him sit for the year as a redshirt so that he could get his bearings in school as well as on the field and then put him on the field next year. But that would have made too much sense. Expect to see a lot more of BLM for the rest of the year given June's investment in him. Not fair to the other QBs or the team but thats life. I hope that BLM can get his act together to at least salvage a few games this year. I will not be holding my breath, however. :roll:

Everyone just needs to relax. First off Justin Willis gave us exactly one win last season. Bo Levi is a TRUE FRESHMAN!! The pains that we are all suffering right now will be forgotten in a few years when Bo Levi and the rest of the team has more experience. Anyone who thought June Jones would completely turn this around in 4 games is nuts. Building a program takes a few seasons and getting all of these freshman experience will only help in a few years. Once the program is built with more depth can you redshirt the new freshman and have more success on the field.

Mitchell did not run the Run and Shoot last nite. He threw 5 yard passes all nite so he wouldn't have to read the defense. June Jones flushed his own offense down the drain to protect an overmatched QB-remember he calls it a VERTICAL offense. I'm not sure what that offense was last nite but it wasn't the June Jones Run and Shoot.

Justin gave us 1 win, and 5 or 6 should've would've could've been wins
last year. Justin can scramble when the play breaks down, and turn a
disaster into a 50 yard gain. Bo just throws the ball into double coverage. :roll:

The gameplan was way too conservative early. Dinks and dunks because I presume Jones did not want to have Mitchell start off this game like he did Tech.

Only until the third quarter did we try and stretch the field. TCU jumped up 14-0 and only pinned its ears back and could tee off. Its DL is very fast and agile. Mitchell was sacked 3 times? But he was hurried many others.
