  1. Yeah agreed. I don’t want him to be fired. I don’t like firing coaches mid season. But there is a trajectory here that can be a blue print for his demise as HC of Texas if some changes aren’t made fast. Changing the whole philosophy of practice before this season borders on malpractice to me. Is he going to double down next year with the same approach? I don’t want yet another HC but Sark may find himself out of a job in the next 2-3 years if he cannot fairly and honestly evaluate where his faults are. His whole ā€œI gotta be better, the coaches have to be better. The team has to execute better. I thought we did better on penaltiesā€ crap feels more like an omen for the inevitable. And I don’t want to start all over again. I don’t think anyone does as pissed as we all are right now.
  2. They replayed the game the other night. The score doesn’t reflect how UCLA was pretty much in the driver’s seat the whole game. With interim everything on the coaching staff. Penn State BMDs have been like the frog in boiling water with Franklin. Sort of FOMO if they fire him bc he was doing well enough. And hey until last year Day was in the same boat as Franklin as far as a shitty record against top 10 teams. With the expectations for Penn State as high has they were before the season opener, I cannot imagine there is not serious discussion about jettisoning his ass after the season. Winning is hard. šŸ˜‚ But getting embarrassed like that is hard too. I cannot imagine they keep him. It’s hard to justify unless they don’t care if they are middle tier Big 10 with a chance to spoil someone else’s hopes every year. And maybe sneak into the playoffs just to get throttled.
  3. All Gas No Brakes! The sad thing is as stunned and as pissed as I am there is like 1/3 of me still left that is fighting the other 2/3 of me that thinks we can win out. Talk about Burnt Orange Brawndo I been drinking since I was a kiddo.
  4. Yes. He is using the Lakers load management model for a college football team. JK. I know he’s doing what the NFL does which probably will never work in college…but damn. We might make a bowl game and the draft eligible players will load management themselves out of playing in that anyway. Sark’s March 2025 seismic philosophy shift to the NFL model has proven so far to be a dumpster fire. He says in his quote from the 3-11-25 interview that we have to be adaptable to change and all that. Yet he stubbornly refuses to get up in the booth. We had year of year improvement record wise for the past four years. Despite having a shitload of penalties and OL woes and being nearly dead last in RZ offense the past 3 years we were still rolling. So much so almost all of us thought we could expect to make the playoffs again and contend for a title. And Sark who is stubborn as heck as an OC flipped the entire philosophy in March. Let’s blow up what was actually working before with a couple of new people on staff and a bunch of new players and go batshit mode. unless you are Allen Iverson practice does actually matter.
  5. @someguy post in the seven win Steve thread is eye opening. Sark floated the idea of minimal spring anything and light no contact summer practices to be more like the NFL back in December. He then implemented it in March 2025. Sark dug a hole a mile wide for our team before the season even started in March 2025. He is the architect of this shit. People can bitch and quibble and complain about Arch but I think all of us would agree that both Arch and Caldwell would have benefitted greatly from heavy spring practices and a spring game and contact practices in the late summer. Damn.
  6. With the rise of the Broncos and possibly Chargers if the booger roller can fix the OLine the Chiefs might be in deep shit to make playoffs. They got the Lions up next. And in a few weeks Buffalo. šŸ˜‚
  7. This.
  8. Lake scouting is exhausting. Peeps cutting me zero slack šŸ˜‚
  9. Too much time left?
  10. Holy shitballs
  11. Don’t play for the tie. Come on Jags! LFG
  12. Per 3-11-2025 interview: As a result, the Longhorns will have fewer contact periods and more teach periods with more controlled scrimmages instead of going for 140 plays. ā€œJust a little bit of a shift philosophically, as I touched on even back in December, actually, when I first brought this up. The NFL model is such that I think that they teach really well, and it’s something as I’ve studied those guys and I’ve gotten around them here the past few years — you guys know I like to do that in the springtime is go see NFL teams — is making sure we’re teaching really well, making sure that we’re developing and growing as a program, and not just our young players, but really developing our older players to be really dialed into the details of what we’re trying to do. And so again, I feel like you have to in this day and age, be adaptable and not be afraid of change and I think this is an area where we can grow as a program to be better suited for the challenges of the schedule as we know what it was here last season,ā€ Sarkisian said.
  13. does anyone trust Lawrence with a short game winning drive? masterful bleeding of the clock we have seen many times from KC.
  14. Someone needs to send the memo Taylor ain’t playing the SB until her man hangs up his cleats.
  15. Read and continue to reread @someguy amazing post a few pages back in this thread and it will eventually flip the switch in most everyone’s brains. All signs point to this being a lost year. Sark is šŸ’Æ to blame bc of his NFL pro-style bullshit and the fact fucker won’t get in a booth if he stubbornly insists on being both OC and HC. His ego is a major problem for him. for The team and for us fans. He is the architect for our misfortune, period. While OU was practicing their asses off (as well as several schools) like they were Rocky training to fight Drago, Mr. know it all Sark had light no contact practices. And pretty much ditched anything in the spring, so It’s no wonder the staff had no fucking clue what the reality was until faced with it against OSU. And they are still denying it, sark is denying it, his ego won’t allow him to accept he dug a massive hole in the road in front of our team’s bus bc of his approach to the season starting in March 2025. Period. His ego needs to get its ass kicked. Harder than it ever has been. He needs to look up during a home game and see a plane fly over with a banner that says ā€œget your ass in the booth, Sark.ā€ I would think given all he has overcome as a recovering alcoholic he would know that the definition of insanity is doing the same shit over and over and expecting different results. He should know this. And sadly, he is gonna Sark his way to getting fired and will get hired again and do the same fucking thing. This is the reality unless he digs deep, admits we have no culture and just a shit slogan, his NFL prostyle BS is dumb as fuck, and that wins are earned not given just because we are šŸ¤˜šŸ¼ if he can do that he can save his job. If he cannot pivot and scrap the entire shit prostyle bullshit he will be gone at some point. those blaming this player (Arch—would he have benefited from spring practice and a game and heavy late summer practices???) or that player or thinking Caldwell would fair any better is MERELY some people not wanting to accept that sark is the architect of our so far shit season. Its him. Sark.
  16. Since Texas appears to be on the ā€œsuck at footballā€ rollercoaster I am rooting for chaos. I am sick of KC and the NFL has finally figured out that Taylor ain’t singing in the SB halftime show until her man is no longer a player and can be in the stands to watch her the NFL doesn’t give a fuck if KC wins anymore either. Eagles have issues. I’m ready to see some other teams in the playoff mix. And it looks like that’s what we will have for once. I know it’s early but I am liking what I am seeing in each division and hope we have some new blood in the playoffs.
  17. I don’t expect our press to ask any real tough questions: 1. hey Sark when you were solely an OC calling plays did you sit up in the booth? 2.Why do OC’s sit up in a booth? 3. Do you think you can see what your opponent’s defense is doing squatting on the sidelines? follow up: Do you think since you will never give up play calling that sitting in the booth might actually help Texas improve offensively instead of being close to dead last in the entire FBS in red zone efficiency the PAST THREE YEARS? 4. You do realize the last HC to be both HC and OC was Jimbo and he was fucking fired? 5. Has anyone in charge of athletics at Texas told you to get your ass in the booth? why not? 6. do you think in hindsight spring practice and a spring game may have helped identify problems with players that seem to have taken you and the coaching staff by surprise once Texas started playing in actual games? 7. do you really think Texas is this close to winning or do you have team dysmorphia?
  18. Maybe he thought he was auditioning for Westside Story?
  19. That reminds me of the Ralph Macchio ā€œFunny or Dieā€ video a couple of years ago. Bonsai mother fucker. If you haven’t seen this please watch it. It has to be one of the most hilarious things I have ever seen. this is basically the first thing I thought of when I heard Le was pressing charges against Sanchez
  20. It’s a sad story. I try to imagine a 69 year old dude, still working, (hey gen Z’ers wake up) doing a job I’ve never heard of until reading this story. in the process of which gets brutally attacked by a multimillionaire who ought to have known better unless there is more to the story going on with Sanchez himself. I agree it’s probably just getting shitty ass drunk and acting like an asshole unless there is something more there. Victim will likely sue and should get compensation for what happened to him. And I suppose it’s a silver lining in the sense that he will get something monetarily out of it. I don’t mean that to sound cynical at all. Im not making light of what happened. But maybe the dude can retire. Not that he would have ever wanted it to go down this way. I weighed in bc I got pissed there were insinuations that the victim was somehow at fault for what happened to him. I see nothing to support that and clearly the camera footage supports the LE charges against Sanchez. Nothing has been said about any audio being captured so that may never be known but cameras don’t lie.
  21. That’s the mystery. Motive (if other than being crazed drunk isn’t one.) why did he care? Was he meeting up with someone? For whatever reason and concerned the victim in the alley knew who he was kind of thing? I’ve no clue. The victim said Mark was highly intoxicated acting scary erratic and he could smell the alcohol so unless Mark was waiting on a date for the night or something else and just didn’t want that guy telling the press he saw Mark Sanchez in an alley doing something nefarious I have no clue. There is no indication from what I’ve read the victim knew even who he was. Just a random violent drunk guy to the victim acting crazy.
  22. Are you saying that @Bevo&Pevois Kathy Lee? Just kidding but my mom’s generation was so ā€œscandalizedā€ by Frank’s affair with big tit blonde lady it tilted their world on its axis. I did think Kathy’s appearance on David Letterman where she took off her bra was hilarious though after the scandal.
  23. Yeah something not right there clearly. I only mentioned seeing his recent appearance on Cowherd’s show because it was in major contrast to his many prior animated jovial appearances. I wish I had a video of some of it. I just remember noticing it enough it bothered me. Then googling his name to see if he was going through anything (like personal shit) that might have been mentioned in the news and there was nada until this incident.
  24. He pepper sprayed Sanchez prior to stabbing him and in the words of the victim (which is supported by cameras) Sanchez kept coming at him the knife wasn’t the victim’s first or even second option. He tried initially to de-escalate whatever was going on with Mark by saying he (the victim) would call his (the victim’s) manager. Then it just went to shit from there. The victim did all he could not to be in any kind of altercation with Sanchez. All supported by cameras footage.
