Garrett Gilbert Is Cool Under Pressure.

You know how I know that Garrett Gilbert has the right stuff? It's not his amazing high school career. It's not his heroic performance stepping in for Colt McCoy in the Rose Bowl. It's not even the huge balls that it takes to admit you like Taylor Swift with a strait face, on camera.

No, it is none of these things.

The reason I am sure - no, convinced - that Garrett Gilbert has what it takes to make it as the quarterback of the Texas Longhorns is simple: - he was not at all nervous during his face to face interview with Erin Andrews. He was funny, confident, as if he had a real chance with her. He made her laugh, kept her interested, and most of all, stayed calm under pressure.

This type of poise will pay dividends when deep in the pocket, it will be with Garrett in the 4th quarter when coming from behind, and it will show it's value when running the 2 minute drill and trying to score. Wait, are we talking about football or Erin? Either way, take it to the house Garrett!!!

I know you can handle the pressure.
