    Love his nickname, Nuke.

    We gotta yell "Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuke" every time he gets a reception at Reliant.

    I'm gonna throw a name out there, another guy that wasn't a burner but a nice WR, a couple of 1000 yd seasons and caught 100 balls one year; how does DH compare with someone like a Marty Booker, there 40 times are similar and Marty was also touted as having huge hands and being a possession type WR.

    What do you think of the comparison?

    I thought it was Nuk, but IDK, nicknames are dumb. I'm surprised we don't have a thread saying we should call him D-Hop.

    Edit: Checked around, I guess it is Nuke. I still hate Nicknames on every player. I guess I don't watch enough NCAA to appreciate it though.

    Stop dealing in reality.

    Now that we have Crapper Hopkins we need to go all in with the Honeybadger.

    We have acquired the second piece of the Andre collection with DeAndre. Now all we have to do is find an UnAndre and a NonAndre and we will be de-stoppable.

    Texans didn't lose Walter to FA. Come on Bill! lol I loved him at Clemson..He played better than Sammy Watkins last year. Watkins had a down year compared to what was expected and Hopkins stepped up.

    Nah, it's Nuk, which was his favorite pacifier brand as a toddler.

    DeAndre ran a 4.41 40 in his pro day, which was faster than Roddy's official time of 4.47.

    From the General's twitter:

    Texans investigated Hopkins, and they're convinced he wasn't involved in trashing of his hotel room at combine.

    Good to see he is great at catching those <10 yard passes. Though I seriously hope that the McCoy/Longhorn 2.0 passing offense that we've been running the last couple of seasons is a thing of the past.

    Come on man...you're talking about a pro day 40 time over his 4.57 combine time? I'm not trying to rag on the guy, i like the pick, but lets not delude ourselves here. He's not faster than Roddy.
