Invited Clubs - Dallas Courses Question

Looking for advice for Invited Clubs (Club Corp) golf courses to play in Dallas area. I'm a member at Deerwood in Kingwood and will be in Dallas this weekend with my son for the Jordan Spieth Crush It! Cup at Brookhaven CC this coming Monday. Linked the details of the event for those interested to see what it is. He'll get to play a hole with Jordan since he's one of the top fundraisers. Pretty cool for him as a 12 year old.

We decided to make a weekend out of it in Dallas and plan to play Saturday & Sunday using the network benefits. I've learned there are some restrictions on the Blue level courses (top tier), meaning can't play those on Saturday but can play those on Sunday. Most of the courses around Dallas are Blue level and a handful are below Blue level that we can play on Saturday. I currently have Trophy Club - Hogan Course booked for Saturday and Prestonwood - Creek Course booked for Sunday, based off comments from a DFW buddy.

Here's our options each day, appreciate any insight on the quality of the courses or general recommendations:

Saturday:
Trophy Club - Hogan (currently booked)
Brookhaven
Hackberry
Oakmont

Sunday:
Prestonwood - Creek (currently booked)
Stonebriar - Dye
Gleneagles - King
Timarron (currently shows full)
Canyon Creek Club
Las Colinas (currently shows full)

Assistant coaches

I may be wrong in this belief but I worry about some of the position coaches we have hired. I know we hired a bunch of good recruiters like Juice but to use him as an example, he was not a WRs coach and hired to replace EJ because of his recruiting ability. But since coming here we have struggled with our receivers. I know that is in part due to the OC but just noticing that our worst year for WRs was his first year as the coach of receivers. But it seems that in position coaches we hire people for recruiting instead of being able to develop.

OT - Summer Moon Coffee: Lubbock Grand Opening

Hey guys,

If any of you coffee lovers are in town this weekend for the game, I wanted to extend an invite to come check out Summer Moon coffee!

My wife and I have partnered with another couple to bring a Summer Moon store to Lubbock. Although it is a franchise, we are locally owned and my wife will be the store GM. We have our grand opening this Saturday, and can’t wait to serve the Lubbock community! We are located on 111th and Slide, next to the new Woodhouse day spa. Hope to see some of you there!

Here is a thought to consider overtime

Not pushing for anything but a idea here.

TCU off. Corr. is Kindle Briles. A AirRaid Sonny Dykes/ Mike Leach, hired him.

I was told by a Stephenville football player who played under Art . He said Kendell was better at off . than Art.

So if Kendell being an air raid guy, I am sure he would be talking with his DAD.

So if it comes to that and not suggesting it. Might get 2 for one. I was told Art Briles to become the Head Man at Tech was his goal.

Also a fan favorited is Sonny Cumbie so he might fit the picture . Lot of options, if needed. hubcity

During the last coach search here is what I reall.

We were told the best for Tech was the Coach at UTSA. Head of HS coaches at one time.
He was interviewed and said he was waiting for the UT coach to open. Well it looks like Sark is good there.
It was UTSA coach who recommended our current coach. could bring him in as sort of a G. Patterson like deal. I do like our coach and want more time. When the top RB in nation is hurt that hurts passing as no real threat. Need more balance and TE play in my humble view.

If you change coaches now it will not sit will with High School coaches who let you in the door and can help or hurt you. More time is what I think.

STORY: Grading the Red Raiders: Offense sputters in Pullman pres. by B-Run Sports


A very bad, mistake-prone day offensively and it started with the quarterback playing one of the worst games in recent Tech history.

Leach was the Pirate. Kittley is the

Pussycat.

While there is some wisdom in taking what the defense gives you, Leach was committed to going vertical and stretching the field. Regardless of what the defense gave him, he was going to FORCE you to defend the whole field. He had a plan and a system to run fades a specific way and had a target (and actual) hit rate that well surpassed our 25% effectiveness downfield this week.

Kittley is a joke.

Swing you Sword, ZK. Be a pirate not a pussycat.

A little venting…

I just cannot believe that offensive performance.

Defense held WSU 3/12 on 3rd down.

Gave up just 115 passing yards.

Had more first downs than them.

Ran nearly 20 more plays than them.

But lost by 21.

Offense put the defense in a massive bind from the 2nd quarter on. Defense was stellar in the 1st quarter and I thought generally played more than well enough to win the game. Huge turnaround by the D from the previous week overall.

But the offense was the opposite and probably 90% of the reason for the loss tonight.

The offense was sloppy, poor execution, poor penalties all night. Playcalling seemed very scatterbrained. No cohesive gameplan other than being committed to the screen game early.

At the beginning of the game, it seemed like we were completely committed to airing it out all night with the run game as an afterthought, which got us in some binds on the early drives with incompletions and short yardage calls where we could’ve/should’ve run it. Then after the first few drives, it was like a titanic shift in gameplan, started running it a ton for a few drives. Just doesn’t give me confidence in a well-thought, logical gameplan.

I just don’t understand the playcalling at times. A well executed play that leads to a short yardage 2nd down or a first down often doesn’t have a sequential, logical play to follow. For example, can’t remember the exact play in the first half, but we had 2nd and short in the red zone, and the next play is a screen with Drae McCray as your lead blocker, and play got blown up for a loss. Why run a screen there with your smallest receiver lead blocking?

On 4th and short, the third time we ran Conyers in wildcat, we ran outside with a true freshman RB as the lead blocker. Seems like a bad idea, to put a true freshman in that spot out on an island in his second game ever in college after barely playing in the first game. I love Dickey and think he’s going to be a killer tailback for us, but that’s a tall ask of him less than 30 snaps into his college career.

Why did we not go to quick hitting crosser routes to our really athletic WRs who are great in space before late in the game? We instead decided to spend the first half throwing screen screen screen, maybe a random deep shot, screen. Where was the intermediate passing game?

It just seems like a lot of the playcalling is like throwing a dart at a board. As @T. Beadles has said, it seems like we run a collection of plays and not an offense.

Morton had an awful night. Airmailed all his deep throws, seemed too amped up for the game, a ton of misreads and obviously bad decisions. 4th down sprint out with the out route, threw it too late, or if you’re going to hold it, you have to then commit to running for the first down until the DB bites and you can throw it over him. INT he threw where he airmailed it over a wide open Josh Kelly was just a really sloppy throw. Just a couple of examples, but he looked lost and anxious the entire night. The OL was rough in some spots I definitely don’t blame Morton for, but he made plenty of awful decisions on his own. I don’t know why he was so bad, but I have my thoughts about his development and lack of progress. He seems skittish, and I don’t know if that’s a coaching issue, injury phantoms chasing him down, or all the above. I just don’t see the confidence I saw from him as a freshman or even at times last year. I’d rather see the risky gunslinger making plays and hanging it all out there than what we’re seeing right now.

Something has gotta change and change FAST. You have too much great skill on this offense to be playing like you did tonight.
