  3. Yes, he spent 7 months in a tent during the 1943 Aleutian Campaign. He said a quite a few troops suffered from frostbite in spite of their issued equipment. The Japanese were pretty well equipped too, but an excess of lead poisoning took its toll.

  4. They feel good about one safety, one DE, and one WR. Those 3 are viewed as happening. They absolutely want starting quality talent at LB, DT, DE, and Safety beyond what they have on the roster and on top of the guys they've received word from who are coming. Don't expect much of anything on the 2023 recruiting front after SD1. A few big things could happen between now and SD1 that involve a lot of activity for UT, but there is also already a ton of focus and scouting associated to the portal. As I've said before, and will more confidently than ever, NIL will not be a reason Texas doesn't land someone in the portal. That doesn't include someone else's idiocy of offering some guy $4million or something, but in terms of non-outliers, should those exist, we're good.

  7. I don’t think a guy has gone from screw that guy to love that guy for me like Christian Vazquez. He was so despondent when he got traded but he’s always first guy over the rail to celebrate, gives 100 percent when he’s name is penciled in and has been a good Astro. I think I understand his mood when he got traded because he’s a ride or die guy for his team and couldn’t imagine trading uniforms. Even though he hasn’t made a huge impact day in day out, it was still a great trade for the piece of mind and stability behind the plate. He totally changed my mind about him.

  8. This is amazing. Even though A&M lost this weekend, recruits loved everything about their visit, the offense is opened up and exciting again, and a team with 18 true freshman starters is somehow simultaneously 1. not able to compete due to youth, 2. a harbinger of greatness about to come, and 3. An indication that plenty of playing time is available to incoming recruits ( even if the frosh will be entrenched for the next few years). So with all that amazingness out of the way, let's check in on offensive recruiting. QB - Nobody. Hoping for an unlikely flip. RB - Nobody. Hoping for a flip. WR - Nobody. Circling around for passed-over bread. TE - Nobody, but none needed. OL - 1 redass homer, 1 guy waiting for Hayes Fawcett to finish his decommit edit, 1 guy who just had knee surgery and is looking around, and 1 guy who is a project. None of the four projects to OT. Nobody else on the radar right now. You can't even make shit up that's as good as this.

  12. Great read. This describes the demise of Hornfans very well. The blinking envelopes and open owner contempt for the user base alienated a huge section of the site and an even larger portion of the most active users. As soon as there was a viable alternative, a huge chunk of the best posters left and the site became a shell in a few months. Cycle repeated itself with shaggy and we're currently watching the same thing with Elon. If anyone can see this train wreck coming, it should be us.

  21. Armies run on their stomachs. Seems like the Ukrainians figured this out. Making a porridge as soon as it gets a bit colder. Also, noticed a few things. Common areas, including storage are clean and organized. Troops have their uniforms on properly. Important things @RDCanecutter and @atomheartbevo. Funny how much the Eastern Europeans learned working with the US and NATO in Afghanistan. Best mess I ever saw belonged to the Macedonians. Dudes has good, healthy food. It was orderly and well managed. And they would buy from local markets at fair prices. The Brits in Helmand relied on contractors and had some issues with Scurvy. I know I am going to be negged bombed for saying this, but man cannot live on Whataburger alone.

  24. Musk follow up to his claim that there was more to the Pelosi story? No? Ok cool. I’m sure that speculation with no consequence is completely unrelated to the Twitter β€œfact check” on Senator Murphy calling for an investigation into Saudi ownership of the platform. Elon couldn’t possibly be using the platform and his position to advance his own political/economic interests while betraying his commitment to neutrality. Let’s be honest. Elon’s cheerleaders don’t care about β€œfree speech” but rather the amplification of shit they agree with.

  25. I don't know about competing big donors. Tom Hicks and Don Evans were on the board of regents. Hicks was the chairman. They were going to be the most important decision makers regarding that hire. There wasn't any real competition on that front. Barnett had inside scoop on how dysfunctional the athletic department was in terms of how football was run, so he insisted on a separation of football from a lot of the decision making within the AD for him to take the job. Mack Brown, on the other hand, talked in his interview about what a privilege it would be to be the next head coach at Texas and how excited he would be for the opportunity. I'm boiling down hours long interviews into a short sentence, but that was a big part of the dichotomy of the two. Brown wasn't exactly the slam dunk we think of him as. After receiving the offer to coach at Texas, he went back to UNC AD Dick Baddour to ask for North Carolina to match UT's offer. Baddour told him he was getting paid as much as he was going to. Sally Brown was earning over $1m per year as a luxury home developer, which she obviously wasn't going to be able to maintain in Austin. UNC was in the midst of finishing a Taj Mahal of football facilities that was going to help transform the program, built on money Mack Brown was instrumental in raising. He'd built a top 5 program after starting with two consecutive 1-10 seasons. If UNC had simply matched UT's offer, he wasn't going anywhere. I don't know about the Strong hire being organized. Basically the message came down to hire the best African American coach available, and that's what Patterson did. That is not going out and hiring the best available candidate. The Akers hire was mostly about freezing Darrel Royal out of the football program, never mind that he was still the AD. That hire was orchestrated primarily by Allan Shivers and Lorene Rogers, who wanted to lessen the power and influence they perceived Royal having. As far as Sarkisian, I'm not exactly shouting out, "Fire him now!" I firmly believe you give a coach 3 to 4 years to do their thing. If it's an unmitigated disaster in year 3, then yeah, he should be gone. But if there are significant signs of progress throughout the program, then that's enough for me, personally. My doubts about Sarkisian lie in the old Darrell Royal line when talking about freshmen ballplayers, "If they're going to bite, they're going to bite as a pup." I'm not seeing the kind of wholesale improvement I think the greatest coaches would already be imparting on the program. And if we're not going to have one of the greatest coaches at Texas, what are we doing? We need another legend as head coach. Not someone who does pretty well. The enemy of great is good, and all that. I'm seeing signs of a guy who has never won that much in his previous tenures. Who seems like a nice enough guy, but maybe not as much of a hardass as he needs to be, who is a very good playcaller when he has the right pieces, but when he doesn't the offense can look pedestrian, who doesn't have a good feel for what it takes to field a standout defense, and mostly, whose teams don't know how to win. Of all the coaches we've had since David McWilliams, who was always my personal favorite as a person, I like Steve Sarkisian personally the most. I like the way he comes across. He seems like someone I would enjoy having dinner with. But I have never professed to having a need to like the head coach. If they're complete assholes and they win at an extremely high rate, I'm good. If John Mackovic and Tom Herman, both of whom I despised, had won a whole lot more, I would have very easily come to peace with that. I never liked Mack Brown all that much. He drove me a bit crazy. But until he acted like he had figured out college football and quit working on the recruiting trail, I could have lived with his 2000-2009 results for a long time. We all could have. I'm just not sure I see a guy who gives us regular 10+ win seasons with conference championships and regularly competing for titles when I look at Steve Sarkisian. Hell on earth for me would be settling for a coach who gives us 9 wins every year so that he wins enough not to get fired, with no hope of anything better. This might sound counter intuitive, but I'd honestly prefer a series of coaches who flame out right away so we can go look for the next one. To me future legendary coaches come in and make a dramatic impact right away, even if it doesn't equal winning at the highest levels. I'm not seeing that in Sarkisian. Are you?

  33. I grew up with the astros rockets oilers,.we had season tickets to all 3 for as far back as I can remember. When the oilers left I was at UT and that is when college football took over for me. As for the abortion on Kirby, just because a billionaire buys a team and parks it in my city does not mean you have mu fandom. You need to earn that and Texans have not. Shitty name, shitty colors, shitty mascot and shitty product, did I mention they're shitty.
