With Horne dropping at least seven passes and Javis West coming in for him and scoring two touchdowns, Aaron should not see the field in the 2nd half. This is D1 ball and the coaches keep putting him in but his hands are cold. Boo hoo.
 
After drop #4 I thought CPR would say "don't put him back in the game".
 
It looked like he had money riding on Baylor. And it looked like he was benched other than special teams at the end.

His head is not in the game! Bench him, he may be a great kid, but for this night his head is not on right. I don't care why broke up with girl friend, lost confidence, psyched out about cold, .... but for tonight he should have benn benched
 
I've got to believe something is going on with that young man...he's normally a very good WR. Tonight he was like a drunk Darius Darks out there.

Hopefully whatever was in his head tonight is cleared by next week. I was about to throw **** at the TV after his performance tonight...I can't afford another TV right now. : )

Glad we won despite of the WR's efforts in the first half. 8 wins this year baby!
 
It's funny that he's able to catch punts but not passes. Usually you want a guy with good hands back there.
 
ouch he did not have a good game.

hopefully he takes advantage of an opportunity or two next week
 
Combine last night's drops with the fact that he has refused to lay out to try to get to at least 3 catchable passes that I can remember this season, and he should not be a starter right now.
 
Did it scare everyone else to death, after Horne's 4th or 5th drop, when we put him back there to field a punt?

Luckily it was a bad punt and Horne didn't have a chance to even attempt to catch it.
 
Kid had a bad game and got benched. Next week he gets a chance to redeem himself. Nice to see the Jarvis West we had been talking about reveal himself to the conference as a major threat. Love that kid's wheels.
 
He had a bad game and we won. He comes back next week with a good game. No big deal. There shouldn't be any hate on this kid. He's one of the good guys remember?
 
Horne was the only bright spot at Okie St then deserves to be benched a week later...., West has had one good game in 2 seasons, lets not get carried away.
 
I hope he proves me wrong in the coming weeks, but he is a lazy receiver and dropped 6 passes in the first half.
 
I'm looking forward to seeing Aaron play next week. For some strange reason, I'm betting that he's doubly determined to have a good game.
