  1. We should throw in the towel on PK and offer Fat Pat DC.

  2. It would be a little weird having our own DC negative recruit against us

  3. A lot of our players suck. True. I come here to page 3 and find some sort of weird Mythology of Sam. He would have willed two more victories! He would have run for seven yards if there was a hole! In the desire to shit on every player other than Worthy and Bijan, Thompson has become a target. Fuck off with that. Casey looks like an old school QB in the pocket. He stands his ground to the last milisecond and throws a dart. His reward is to get smashed to the ground while his receivers drop the pass. Sam, whom I love, was not as calm in the pocket and did not throw as well as Thompson does. Thompson completes deep passes...well, he puts the ball where it can be caught. People complained about Colt his first few years. It was stupid then; it's stupid now with Casey. So, you're saying Casey is as good as Colt? Nope. I'm saying, like Colt, he's not the problem with our offense. The myth of willing your team to win is absurd. You can't will blockers to block or receivers to catch. You bring your team to victory through talent, execution, and desire. Thompson delivers those. Too many others on his team do not. If I see Christian Jones just standing around prior to the whistle being blown one more time, I think I'll lose it. As noted earlier, on one play he was standing with his back to the play and the runner crashed into his lazy, stupid, huge back. The fucker should have been hunting for a block or at least getting the fuck out of the way. If Jones is the best we have for left tackle then the OL cupboard isn't just bare; it's been burned down. I don't care about their ratings out of high school.

  4. You can't attribute our failures to any one thing. It's not just coaching. It's not just players. It's not just the institution. It's not the fans. Etc. 1) Our athletic department/football program clearly prioritizes making money over winning football games. Not having a "bag game" in place and our fucking dipshittery on NIL makes it nearly impossible to land super-elite recruits that we need to compete at the highest level. Then you've got Plonsky mucking everything up. I think she actually likes that the football team sucks. 2) So yeah. We don't have the guys to compete with Alabama, Georgia, and at this point, unfortunately, even A&M. Think about how fucking horrible this team would be without Bijan, Worthy and even Overshown. How awful would we be? Those dudes were all five-stars (by at least one ranking). You need super-elite guys who change the game in some way. We have three of them. 3) And then we have super-elite guys that we fail to develop. What the fuck is going on with Alfred Collins? That dude should be fucking shit up. But he's a JAG. And while we don't have the guys to compete with Alabama, we sure as shit have better talent the Baylor, Arkansas, and Oklahoma State. On the whole, our players had more raw talent coming out of high school than the guys at BU, AK, and Ok St. We don't maximize the talent we have on our roster. We haven't developed players for 12 years. Across four coaching staffs. That's fucking embarrassing. To be honest, I have no idea why an elite recruit would come here when you could go to OU. Four fucking staffs that have been abject failures in player development. It's fucking baffling. 4) Scheme and personnel. I just don't understand how these coaches keep playing against our strengths. Playing Jett Bush and Luke Brokermeyer is inexcusable. Expecting three down lineman to get a rush while playing 15 yards off the ball is inexcusable. Continuing to pound the ball between the tackles when our OL can't block is inexcusable. I just can't understand it. There's just so much working against this program at this point. We can't land elite guys. We can't develop the guys we have. And our coaching sucks. At least this frees up my Saturdays in the fall to do whatever I want instead of planning my weekends around watching the games. It's just not worth it. I can't get emotionally invested in a team that consistently disappoints.

  6. "good job" DEFI average at Washington, with the exception of 2020 where they only played a few games and it looks like they got some negative adjustment for that): 10. in the country. over 5 full years. that's performing in the 93rd percentile nationally. that is fucking good. Washington - 14: #18 15: #4 16: #4 17: #12 18: #7 19: #15 "lack of competency" - you act like the pac 12 and P-12 north is the Ohio Valley Conference. He isn't going up against Tennessee State and Austin Peay. This is a bad take and you know it. Jimmy Lake took over play calling in the 2018 season. he took over play calling so they could keep him there after a bunch of folks came calling and PK was still doing a bunch of the game planning on a weekly basis. Acting like Lake taking over play calling had anything to do with PK doing a poor job is laughable and show a pretty clear lack of following that story when it happened - the change was because they wanted to keep Lake, who had offers from A&M, Cal, FSU, Az State and Bama to be DC there. He got a 35+% pay increase in 2018. PK got a 15% pay increase in 2018 and gave up play calling. They worked together for 7 years before he took over play calling and another 2 after Lake took it over. Oh yeah, and if half of what he says is to believed it was his idea (and he did a bunch of interviews about this when it happened, on the record) and acting like the play calling change over is a red flag is disingenuous at worst and ill informed at best. if he is so terrible, why did they 1) keep him in that scenario 2) give him a pay bump 3) keep him in future years and 4) why did Lake keep him upon getting bumped up to Head Coach? he knows all his deficiencies, considering they coached together for like ten years and Lake played under him - if he was so shitty why did he keep him and ensure he got a bump in salary every year, including making him the team's highest paid assistant coach? there are a lot of reasons to shit on PK and his time at Texas, across the board. his track record using normalized stats is absolutely not one of them. FEI specifically gives adjustments on this front. the handoff of play calling duties is absolutely not one of them. acting like he is unknown just because he coached for 10 years at Boise and Washington as DC in the PNW is not one of them. pick something actually of value to attack, because so far everything you have gone after so far with PK is either lazy or ill informed. as everyone knows, those takes belong on the football board and not here.

  11. Is there ever a losing team that wasn't out-coached? It's such a lame fucking phrase... Any team in the country in the top 40 could get a guaranteed 100% td on us in the red zone by asking questions of Brockermeyer, Schooler and/or Foster. Any team in the top 40 could stop us on critical passing downs by covering Worthy and seeing which shitty throw on a shitty read is made by Thompson to a receiver with shitty hands, unless they have a DL with a pulse and then the pass isn't even being thrown in the first place. I guess we out coach every team that we have out rushed in the past. Preparation for Texas at this point is about masking our glaring deficiencies on both sides of the ball, there's hardly enough time in a season to do otherwise. The insider lead up, however bland that information is, mentioned Texas coaches seeing opportunities to turnover Bohannon, and you can see that emphasis more or less. Too bad we turned it over just as much. It was said Baylor just knew they could win by playing hard for 4 quarters. Oh yeah Aranda is a fucking genius by preparing his team to shut down Bijan. Such a monumental task. I'm not trying to say our coaches are performing excellently, it's just the tautology of the out-coached excuse after every loss is grating. When you have a bad team, especially with first year coaches, results are almost always terrible

  12. PK run defense in a nutshell. 1) Baylor ends up sending out no receivers, with 9 blockers on the play; we have 3 dudes at least 10 yards off the LOS at the snap, with the two safeties bailing. They are off the screen. 2) Absolutely terrible gap integrity in the front 7. Our DL in this 3-4 is supposed to occupy lineman and free up LBs. The center and tackle reach the LBs effortlessly. The gap assignments are hard to discern here. Frankly, it looks like our players have little idea. They play soft and uncertain. 3) The LBs tip toe up toward the line, waiting for the free lineman to come to them. 4) Ford runs himself out of position and then gets held right in front of the ref (thanks Big 12). This is quite possibly the worst run defense I've ever seen here, and that includes the Gary Darnell and Tony Orlando years. And it's not just talent. They are playing uncertain and scared because their coach is coaching uncertain and scared.

  14. Doomlet was a complete butthole yesterday so we didn't carve our last two pumpkins after all, though I did install the arms and legs that I received for Father's Day. Here's everything as of earlier today. I moved Sr. up to a protected spot on the porch to guard against shithead teenagers. Jr. continues to feed local fauna. Green guy is probably going to have staying power, though he's becoming more orange over time. The orange new jack is just a boring old pumpkin and is already getting mushy in spots. Also including a picture of the tableau in our front window.

  15. How do we even know Card has mental issues? Because he struggled in his second career start on the road where the entire team shit the bed? He isn’t the first QB to have a bad half when he is getting zero help from his playcaller or teammates. If Whittington catches his pass in the endzone on the second drive that entire game and narrative changes. I don’t know if Card is the answer but writing him off like many are after 3 bad quarters is stupid. Thompson had a lower QBR through 3 quarters against TCU than Card had against Arkansas.

  16. They loaded up against the run. Sark responded appropriately by going to the passing game. We left at least 3 TDs on the board due to players not executing. Like wide open TDs. Passes/catches half this board could probably make. But yeah Sark got outcoached lmao.

  18. It's amazing that we have so many ignorant motherfuckers proudly spouting Texags stupidity without a scintilla of introspection. Spoiler alert: If you find yourself in complete agreement with those mouth breathers over anything, you should immediately examine where you fucked up in your thought process.

  19. Ive lost almost all interest in college football. Texas football has broken me as a fan. I broke my 99-home game streak 2 weeks ago. Didnt watch any other games after the Texas Baylor game today for the first time ever. Its a strange fucking feeling. Not even sure who to blame at this point. The coaches, the players, the university, or myself? Not sure if I should drink more, drink less, or not drink at all.

  20. This team has given me so much joy from about 2014 on that I can’t be mad about anything. Disappointed about 2019 which was the best team clearly of the entire run, but maybe we can steal one with this team, minus LMJ. Bc make no mistake this would be a theft of a worls series (in a general sense- not that we are worse than the Braves). I’m really glad we didn’t go down in 5. That would have been sort of bitch made. This team isn’t bitch made at all.
