    I don't know if it's perfect or better than perfect. This is the most unbelievable performance I've ever heard. Lalah Hathaway's vocals are obviously mind blowing, but the band is smoking, and after the polyphonic singing starts up towards the end (she's comping for herself like a keyboard player and hitting all the changes, check out the interplay between her and the organ), the band cranks up the energy and just blows the roof off of the thing. It's cool to see great musicians obviously blown away by each other and collectively raise to another level. Lot's of former UNT kids in this too, so Mean Green represent.

     

    Holy shit.

    Actually, the polyphonic singing sounds a lot like the DLR shriek. Like at the beginning of "Jump," for example.

    Favorite part of that vid is his emphasis on getting the ball to the players while they’re moving. Everyone is playing man in the RPO game right now so let your guys get separation and be the athletes they are. I don’t remember the quote exactly from the vid but he said he hasn’t called a curl route in a long time bc no one runs cover 3 so why call it. I can’t wait to see what he does with Moore, Smith, Whitt, Dixon and others. 

    All I could think about when he said that was Greg Fucking Davis. Who threw lots of curl routes. Lots and lots and lots of curl routes. And had guys catching balls while frozen in place. And changed the offense each week. And otherwise had no idea how to use one play to set up another. Who threw sideline passes to guys who were covered by 2 DBs with no blocker.

    I would strongly recommend watching the clinic he put on for Nike I think that is posted in one of the offical Sark threads.. Goes over what he does and what goes into the install of his offense. Watch that then rewatch the title game you will understand what they are trying to do in a hurry.

     

     

    I'm literally just quoting this in case someone missed it on the last page, or before that.

    Seriously, if you give any shits at all about Texas football, you owe it to yourself to spend the 45-50 minutes to watch this and understand what we're in for.

    This guy gets it. I don't think we've had a head coach that gets it like he does since... fuck, I don't even know when. I've only been paying attention since 1989. If he can stay sober, we're going to win a LOT of fucking football games.

    We've functionally entered a 3 party situation, with Democrats, Trumpists, and a small rump traditional GOP, which at this point only really exists with in the Senate (Murkowski, Collins, Romney, maybe Ben Sasse) and a few Governorships.  There's some political opportunists like McConnell trying to gather an edge, but that's personality dependent.

    The rump GOP is in the throws of becoming Democrats at the voter level. I don't know if the elected traditional GOP is going to last for any time, switch parties, or be primaried out of existence eventually. But the old GOP is never coming back. Like how the Whigs devolved into the Know Nothings and the Lincoln Republicans.

    Been thinking this was going to happen for a couple years now.

    My guess was then: Trump splits the GOP. GOP moderates join the Democrat moderates. AOC & co form a new left-wing party, Trump forms his party. Trump's party dies, AOC's becomes the new center-left.

    If I had to make an optimistic guess, I’d say McConnell will be using every tool available to force Trump to resign without having a Senate trial. 

    McConnell wants Trump out of the Republican party. This isn't just revenge for losing the senate; this is reclaiming control of his own party.

    McConnell doesn't want leverage to get Trump to do something else. He wants Trump unable to run for office and ejected from the GOP. He's fine and able to weather a few years of voter discontent in the aftermath. Point is, he thinks he knows what he's doing, and that's why he'll do it.

    It has nothing to do with the good of the country or anything noble like that. It's about power.

    yeah. I mean, we have actually been bitching about our offense since GDGD. That’s for 20 motherfucking years.  I’m pretty excited about the way things are looking. 

    When he said in the coaches clinic that he doesn't run curl routes, i got sprung
