How Eric Morris, a Former Receiver, Became Pro-Run Game

Morris runs the rock much more than his mentor Mike Leach.

If you got a guy that can burn clock for you, help rest the defense, and nobody can stop him. Then you give him the freaking football and let him do his work. You don’t just give him 12 rushes in the first three games of the season like we did back in 2023.

Literally cannot help himself. The man cannot. If he had a bomb in his head and it went off when he complained about Mike Gundy, he wouldn’t last as long as it took to explain what set the bomb off.

Mad Scientist: Ah, you’re awake, my little guinea pig! Let me explain what I’ve done–
bill: Ugh, my head hurts even more than it hurt when Mike Gundy wouldn’t throw the ball to the tight end…
Mad Scientist: Wait you fool!
