Wow kinda got blasted there guys but thats OK. Forgive me if I like the Bill Parcels saying if they don't bite as pups they don't bite as dogs etc. RT was once a wide reciever at Texas AM but wanted to play QB. Why did he play wide reciever because he wanted to both play football and the coach at Texas AM had him buried on the depth chart at QB....
jeez, more LIES. i was giving you benefit of doubt in last post backing off my "lies" comment saying maybe you were just too lazy to get your facts right.
Now you double down in outright lies. Here are the FACTS:
1. RT was NOT a wide receiver who wanted to play QB. He was recruited as QB and was ALWAYS considered A&M's future starting QB.
2. He was personally asked by Sherman to play WR as a redshirt freshman because of his off the charts athleticism. And Ags already had some future NFL receivers at the time.
3. Sherman's request and his acceptance was made on the understanding that this would in no way impact his and Sherman's future plans for him at QB.
4. He continued to work out at QB, attended all QB meetings and was A&M's backup (2nd String) QB.
5. Jerrod Johnson was a great NFL QB prospect who unfortunately sustained injury going into his jr year. He did bounce around theNFL a little. sitting behind him was in no way an indictment of RTs own abilities. it was a matter of getting two great talents on the field at same time.
6. Sherman told RT not to worry, that he would be playing in the NFL soon. Sherman had buttload of NFL connections as Favre'sformer QB coach, and was a GREAT evaluater of talent.
7. When JJ was injured and started slipping, Sherman turned to RT. If there's any questiion of what he thoughtof RT's talent, you only need to see how hard Sherman lobbied to nab him with the 8th pick when Sherman's Job future at Miami was on the line.
Phintim, if you ever had any credibilty, you've lost it.
Maybe you're just a troll, but you certainly know nothing about Tannehill as far as his college career, Sherman, or A&M.
Just stop it!
