🏈 Kenny Hill

[PhillyGirl]

Remember when the heir to Johnny Manziel came out flying in South Carolina, and all the TAMU WILL WIN THE SEC and KENNY HILL FOR HEISMAN stories started coming out? And now he is basically fighting for his job, after a benching vs. Bama and lackluster play? How things change in just a few weeks.

There's always some every year, but it's really amazing to me how meteoric his rise and fall were.

 

[Crimson&WhiteGecko]

I think his "rise & fall" had as much to do with rankings & media as it did himself.

 

[planomateo]

Why the hell they have to nickname their QB's is beyond me. But then again, they have male cheerleaders...

i don't think their problem is Kenny Hill. Their O-line is TERRIBLE. I don't think anyone would look good back there at this point. He also doesn't get a lot of help from his receivers from what I saw.

I think it falls more on Offensive scheme than it does the Oline to be honest. I don't like these spread formations and shotgun for the mere fact of taking the aggression out of Olinemen. They are back on their heels defending their QB instead of lining up and blowing someone off of the ball. They have 2 projected first round tackles.
@TerryP what was the name of our notoriously horrible Oline coach several years ago? I think he may be the line coach there for the Ags!

Over-reaction to one freakin' ballgame!!

Talkin abt Connelly?

I just find it interesting/kinda sad, is all. How rapidly after ONE GAME the entire sports media descended on him as a Heisman contender and on TAMU as the SEC winner, a natty contender. After ONE GAME. Fame is fleeting in football!!

Get used to it; it will happen again next year.

Thanks @TerryP ! The name had been wiped from my memory for awhile. Our tackles looked like revolving doors allowing DEs in our backfield.

I've no issues with drinking and can do so quickly in the right circumstances...but that guy could down a case before I'd finish a six pack...no exaggeration.

Starting now-Blake Barnett for the 2015 Heisman

Kenny suspended for 2 games. Violation of team rules.

 

[planomateo]

LOL, how quick before this new QB gets a silly nickname...

 

[bama alum]

Hill and the tamu O score a goose egg in the second half, yet they still won 21 - 16. I guess Sumlin is saving the Allen breakout party for the barn... :sarc:

 

[Rolltide24]

Donna at UT should get a nickname now, right? Passed for 300+ and ran for over 165 against the vaunted SC defense... :doh2:
