Vince Young is a dumbass

1–2 minutes

February 27, 2006

The infamous “Wonderlic” is basically an IQ test for NFL prospects. We have been guilty of accusing Vince Young of not being a bright guy before…. well eventhough we don’t put all our faith in a “test”, it appears we were more than right.

Vince Young scored a “6” on the Wonderlic. The lowest score is technically zero, but you get a point for writing your name and one of the questions is “What is the 9th month of the year”, which is multiple-choice by the way.

So Texas coach Mack Brown heard about this and nearly exploded (time for damage control).

Then news came that the test was improperly graded? (It’s multiple choice!) And then further word came from the Houston Chronicle that Vince Young was allowed a “do-over” and he got a “16”. Hahahahahahaha! Good job Einstein!

Bitter party of two. Your table is ready. You girls are a bunch of losers. You could handle the “UH HARD FOUGHT WIN… UH I MEAN LOSS” and you spread rumors on VY because he kicked your ass in the Rose Bowl. Time for next year you LOSERS. Get over yourselves and go back to smokin weed and being good hippies.

Hey JK,
If we are such losers why are you reading Trojan websites and caring enough to make comments? Longhorn fans gloated a plenty, made fun of Lienart’s post-game comments, the SC cheerleader pic thing, and circle-jerked with LSU fans over some silly billboard idea. Now you whine when Trojans make fun of Rhodes Scholar Vince Young? What’s a matter, you guys can dish it out but not take it? Geezus, Longhorn fans win the championship and STILL cry like bitches. Go live in the middle east if a cartoon gets you all pissed off. ha ha!

Well, the people here at this site sure don’t hesitate to say the most despicable and despariging things about a person, erroneous rumors notwithstanding. People really need to use caution before they write things about another person, because the words that someone says or writes about another can be very hurtful. On the other hand, maybe I’m naive to always want to see the best of people. In a world where people don’t think twice before doing and saying the absolute worst to their fellow man, I’m certaintly not surprised by what I read here.

I’m an SC fan and I hate hearing SC fans making fun of Vince Young’s diction. If anything, we should never even want to speak his name after what he did to us.

I know for a fact that he did not make six on the test and I was also told that test was graded wrong when he took it the first time.

Proof right there from Coach Brown don’t think he would lie about that smart asses

I think its funny how the Texas fans come running in here defending VY. Look, Vince Young is a great athlete, but he isnt exactly Newton. Im starting to think that Texas didnt even run plays with Youngs mental capacity, they just snapped the ball back to Young, told him to run around in the back field and throw it when someone is open or take off running with it. Not that that is a bad game plan in college, but that will get him killed in the NFL yall.

Based on Wonderlic test examples I’ve seen, I estimate that there are at least 22 multiple choice questions on the test, with choices varying from 3 to 5 possible answers. Based upon my analysis, if you randomly selected answers on the multiple choice questions you would likely get 5 of the 22 questions correct. Therefore, if you only answer 39% of the remaining 28 questions correctly, you’d score a 16.

hey I’m a big SC fan and west coast homer but taking shots at Vince is a low blow. Similar to LSU billboard thing. Besides didn’t Marino and Mcnabb get low scores.

As for JK’s comments on smoking weed and hippies, man youre talking like you never been to Austin? (great place by the way) or are you one of the Austin outsiders who demanded Vince Young go to WR after one loss.

Gladly smokin’ joints in Austin and LA till I have gets

So did all you Texas fans also write these angry emails to ESPN and Fox Sports also? They ran this story as well. Or are you just pissed off cuz a Trojan based site picked up on it. Why are you Texas fans even keeping up with a Trojans site? Are you on our schedule next season? I guess though if my team lost the player that made the team, I would be living in last years match-ups also. If you don’t like the Trojan point of view, then don’t look here.

I am a Longhorn fan who was lucky enough to attend the Rose Bowl this year. It was a fantastic game, and both teams should be proud of their effort. We sat immediantly below the press row, and to a man, they all picked USC to win. We were also in the USC section…the Trojans around us NEVER thought they would lose the game, even when they fell behind. After a world class effort by the Longhorns, led by Vince Young, we came out on top. Afterwards, (and actually before the game as well) every USC fan we met was very gracious. A couple Trojans even bought us drinks at the hotel bar after the game. That’s why it’s such a disappointment to see this post titled “Vince Young is a dumbass.” It’s not about “dishing it out, but can’t take it.” It’s not about “writing angry emails to ESPN and Fox.” Or Vince Young’s “mental capacity.” The fact is USC got beat, and the author of the above article comes off sounding like a pouty five year old. Have some pride in your program….if Young is such a “dumbass” as you say, then how does it make the Trojans look? You lost to a team led by a “dumbass?” You should be agreeing with the dozens of sportswriters around the country who said Vince was the best player in college football in possibly the best game ever played in college football. If you lose, you want to lose to the best, not a “dumbass.”

Texas 41, USC 38

ESPN has 15 sample questions from the wonderlic, and the real test is 50 questions in 12 minutes. I gave myself 3:30 to do them and got 12/15, and I was trying. Vince Young plays football for a living, and I plan to major in physics – the test is not a cakewalk and the average score of a test taker is 20. Maybe Vince Young isn’t as smart as the average person, maybe he didn’t really care about the test, maybe some of both, but the test had some bona-fide word problems alongside the 9th month of the year, and you don’t get much time at all.

USC fans,

You had a truly great team this year. The NFL will be filled with alums from this class for years to come. That said, Texas was clearly just better. If they played ten games, Texas would probably win seven. Defensively, Texas is better. And on offense, USC would never have an answer for Superman. No sacks in spite of several clean looks. A completion percentage of 75% against a defense with five or six future pros in it. The leadership and composure to bring a team back for a win against a two-time national champion down 12 with six minutes left. All of these things make VY a “dumbass.” Fuck you. You and the rest of the sports media are just jealous of VY and wish he could be yours. You know the difference between “Matty”(Pete Caroll’s pet name for your former quarterback) and VY? When little Matty makes mistakes, it’s because he’s scared. When VY makes them, it’s cuz he wants to make shit happen. We’ll see who’s a better pro. HOOK ‘EM BYatches.

Be that as it may, Vince has the ring and the trojans will be known as the team that gave up the greatest individual performance by one player in the history of college football. And, Reggie bush’s (BUSH LEAGUE) downfield lateral was one of the biggest bonehead plays of the season. Nonetheless, Texas won and USC lost. wah,wah,wah,… .

I’m a Californian who went to school in Austin, I live in Los Angeles. You guys never took note of what Vince did to Michigan the year before. Simply, usc never took Texas serious enough. But then again, usc was the best college football team of all time, right? Actually, the best of all time beat you. And by the look of the drawing at the top of this page, usc must also be the most racist college in America, which makes it even sweeter my bro trampled you limp white pricks. There’s something that any test can never measure: Leadership and heart. Remember Seabiscuit? Well, Vince waited till he was looking little Matty Leinart in the eye before he decided to kick it into high gear and become a Texas legend. Carroll also got outcoached left and right, nice clock management Pete. Never underestimate the underdog boyz, now we’re tied in the new century, both having won a national championship. Sorry, LSU won the other one you tried to steal. I hear Leinart went home after the game to the open arms of his boyfriend Nick Lachey where he cried himself to sleep as they spooned the night away. Next time pick a real leader like Vince Young for your team instead of a limp wristed metrosexual who’s hanging with Paris Hilton just to try and convince us he doesn’t smoke sausage on the side. He’s showing his real depth now in the post season. USC=UNIVERSITY of SORRY COCKSUCKERS. Hook em’Horns!
