Oh man, you dummies are gonna do this to yourselves again aren't you
Yeah, yeah. "The workouts are different from last year." Which is what we've heard... every single year ever.
Only thing new is "more player-led than last year," which is like saying that the Jacksonville Jaguars improved in 2021 over 2020, by improving from 1-15 to 3-14.

Richard Justice on Why Does UT’s $34 Million Head Coach Need a “Special Assistant”?
Ex-TCU coach Gary Patterson's move to Austin is a script only the deep-pocketed and dysfunctional Longhorns could write.
Richard Justice is a dickhead moron.

Because he's a dickhead moron.

I wouldn't insult Bohls by comparing him to Justice. Bohls is merely a dipshit. Justice is a dickhead moron.

Yeah, "what we're doing is different from Ohio State" doesn't sound like good news to me, either.

This is the correct answer. The prequels kinda spoil the best twist in cinema history. Having your child not know what's coming, that gasp! of realization and horror at the end of Empire Strikes Back, is not something you want to take away from your child.
All other answers are wrong for this reason alone.

On the old Go Big 12 boards I was the only person advocating Bob Stoops as the coach to replace John Mackovic. I liked his resume of success coaching under Snyder and Spurrier. I liked how he conducted himself in the press conferences Spurrier put him in charge of while he was at Florida (an unusual measure for any head coach, but Spurrier marches to the beat of his own drummer). However, it was known at the time that Texas was never going to hire an assistant. To be honest, there's no way anyone in their right mind hires Bob Stoops over Mack Brown at the respective stages of their careers in 1998.
OU has always hired assistants. They've had remarkable success with it. It's still about keeping the ones who end up being good. Bud Wilkinson, Barry Switzer, and Bob Stoops. None of their other coaches since WWII have been remarkable, and some of them, like John Blake, have been flat out bad. The one former head coach they did hire was arguably the worst of all in Schnellenberger's one season in Norman.
Charlie Strong was not a coaching search directed to find the best candidate out there. It was a coaching search to find the best black candidate to hire as head coach. While it's a great gesture from a progressive standpoint, it has the same issues so many of the other coaching searches have had. The selection processes never looked at EVERY possibility. Fred Akers was hired because he agreed to exclude AD Darrell Royal from the football program. David McWilliams was hired because he was cheap, and he was a legacy hire from the Royal days who had built some great defenses and had one decent season including a Texas Tech win over the Longhorns. Mackovic was hired because he ran an exciting offense and projected the image of a CEO. Tom Herman was hired to prevent him from going to LSU as that season's hot commodity.
Steve Sarkisian is one of the first assistants Texas has taken a chance on, although of course he has head coaching experience. Like longhornmatt, it seems like Texas could have gone after someone a little more high profile, but they didn't.
As far as hiring committees, however many or few are a part of that process at Texas, what I would say more than anything is to open it up to include all possibilities. That's my biggest gripe with how Texas hires, specifically for football. Without that mindset, they never hire Mack Brown in the first place. Gary Barnett would have been the hire. Tom Hicks, Darrell Royal, and others helped open it up to even interviewing Mack Brown, who wasn't even dead set on leaving North Carolina until he went back to the UNC AD with what Texas brought to the table and UNC declined to extend anything further.
More hires like that, where everyone in the country is on the table, and Texas goes after the best candidate possible. Like they did when they hired Garrido for baseball. That just doesn't seem to happen in football.
I believe the phrase you used was:
"STOOPS STOOPS STOOPS STOOPS STOOPS STOOPS STOOPS"
or something similar. I might be short a STOOPS, I might have used a STOOPS too many.

Ended disastrously for that ND chick; she fell pregnant by one of the players she was trying to buy. This was the same year their former O-line coach Joe Moore filed an age-discrimination lawsuit against ND, and a lot of nasty stories from Lou Holtz' tenure bubbled to the surface during court depositions. Shattered the 'Notre Dame mystique'.

not bad

But let’s be honest what percentage of posters here are assholes? And they might not be straight up liars, but they are full of shit. And there are shit some whiners amongst us.
So essentially what I’m understanding is that people dislike Rodgers because he reminds them of themselves. Interesting.oh fuck off

Oddly, many think that medicine and science aren’t really political, but…..science.
So maybe folks hate the lying, whining asshole because he’s a liar and a whiner and an asshole.I don't know what Rodgers' political views are. All I know is he's an anti-vaccine dipshit, who lied about being "immunized," and then whined about (get this) NOT getting preferential treatment when he was caught out on it.
Also, the 2004 whining and bitchassery about the Rose Bowl before being absolutely punked by Tech in the Holiday Bowl.
