Trevone Boykin aka Deuce Boogie: The Quarterback We Deserve
Assuming he will beat out Matt Brown for the rest of the season, there's a lot to be excited about when it comes to Deuce Boogie.
First of all, DB doesn't run...he fucking glides. Like Michael Vick or Vince Young (when he wasn't fat and poor), DB makes his agility look effortless. His swift and fluid running is better than Pachall (who ran like an deer with down's syndrome) could ever have dreamed to have himself. His arm is slightly weaker and less accurate than the recently departed Chaos, but he still is more than capable of putting up the same numbers.
Second, even with Waymon gone, DB has some of the strongest offensive support in the nation. The Frogs have arguably one of the best receiving corps in the nation behind West Virginia and USC. A corps that will only get better when Ja'Juan Story becomes eligible next year. Aaron Green from Nebraska will also be a more than significant asset if not a break out star at running back when he too becomes eligible next season.
However---the biggest thing Chaos didn't realize in his most recent shenanigans was that he'd be fucking us on more levels than Avicii for not only this season but possibly the next few. Even if (and when) Boykin becomes a star, what happens when Chaos returns? Will Boykin have to give up his throne?
Had he done it right, Casey the Snowman could have played these two years, taken us to two solid bowl games, been a high NFL draft choice, maybe won some awards, and then left his crown to a more experienced Junior named Trevone Boykin, who then would've passed it on to Tyler Matthews. The biggest mess out of Pachall's coked-out thinking process is that he destroyed the order of things. It's gonna be like Leno kicking Conan of the Tonight Show. It's very unfair to Boykin. It's even unfair to Matthews.
People saw Pachall's rehab coming like a positive gonorrhea test for a Ricks employee...there's no question...
The majority of us don't have any moral problems with that. And why should we? We've all been blacked out at Aardvark, crying on the floor like a baby because "x" girl didn't want to go home with us. Then James yanked us out and we'd cry even more. We've all been fucked up on Berry---stumbling and dumping Salsa Limon into our mouth like a fucking garbage truck. But when you're a starting quarterback for a top program in the country...you gotta let that shit go. It's the price you pay for greatness and Pachall never could see that. There's no doubt Pachall has fucking talent. He just handled his position and leadership wrong. As much as it sucks, you can't be starting quarterback and a rock star. Just look what happened to Joe Namath, Ryan Leaf, etc.
Trevone "Deuce Boogie" Boykin can be and will be great. But we have to support him. He made some mistakes against Iowa State, but that was with two (at most) days to prepare. Very few people have had that sort of pressure put that on them. There's no doubt he can run and throw, but stringing it together at the right times is where he fell Saturday.
Unlike Batman, he's the hero TCU deserves and the one it needs right now. I believe in Deuce Boogie and so should you.

But in Casey's defense, everyone is entitled to their booze fueled fun while in college. Ask any fraternity, or Kappa. And yes KKG, that is a compliment. But Casey had two years to get it out of his system when he was backing up the God-loving All American fire crotch, Andy Dalton. The two couldn't have been more polar opposite. While Dalton was passing out fliers on the steps of the library and encouraging everyone to come to "Ignite"---a student Christian gathering , Pachall was "igniting" blunts.
For some reason, this makes Andy look even more innocent compared to Chaos |
