    Yup. This is what we do now? Either site your sources or fuck off with this bullshit.

    And deprive them of days and weeks of useless speculation? Do you realize how little else they have going on in their lives?

    In a way, losing to Florida was actually impressive.  So far, only 3 teams in the country have managed that feat.

    So if we pull something similar against Arkansas, we'll really be in rarefied air.

    It is an astounding loss. Just a perfect storm of WTF in that game.

    There is no more certainty that Sark says than leaves. 

    I acknowledge that reality. 

    You however seem absolutely incapable of even considering your take may not be correct.

    That's what you do. 

    We'll see. 

    You're right. I don't think he'll be fired. He could leave for the NFL but I think he'll get every chance to shake up his staff and sure it probably won't work but that's what most programs do before they take the next step and fire a guy who won a conference championship and went to the playoffs two straight years. If we get blown out by Arkansas and aggy, maybe they do the mutually parting of ways. I don't see that against Arkansas. 

    You want everyone to think like you and it's always tough for you to deal with opposing viewpoints. It's what you do.

    I mean the game never felt particularly close, I'm not sure what game you were watching. They got blown out the whole fucking game and couldn't convert when it mattered. Texas is a team that had to dig itself out of a lot of holes that it had previously dug itself into. The committee was rewarding a brand and a record. Seriously, there's a real chance that arkansas comes in and blows them out at DKR, that's the reality we are living in. 

    It was a 4 point game when Arch threw the TD to Wingo in the 3rd. Then the defense folded and they got the onside and then it was over.

    When I went to fayettenam last time it was real. This is generational hate for them. I don't think they think it's just some game, it's definitely serious for them. Bobby Petrino and this team are definitely going to try to ruin Arch Manning's season and get one over on big bad texas at home. 

    For their fans, sure. The players only care about beating Texas because they need a win and any win will do. When Texas rolls into your stadium, sure you want to beat them because we're the ultimate villain and way to validate your program.

    8 loss Arkansas definitely won’t also be checked out. Just us.

    But you see they hate us so much, these young kids who have no real history of the Texas-Arkansas rivalry from the Southwest Conference days.

    you are correct but I really hope it is the latter because shaking up the staff ain't gonna work if this guy is staring at his playsheet the whole game still.

    Did Ryan Day shake up his staff or just give up being OC?

  7. Well Lane's about to head to LSU or Florida so the whole conversation is about to be moot. Or do we want to do the bizarre Texas fan behavior and think that he'll wait for our position to open up?

    Sark is going to get the chance to shake up his staff. That's how it works unless he decides to jump to the NFL.

    If our team is checked out, it doesn’t matter how bad they are we will lose this game 

    That's a big IF. Being checked out because Georgia is whipping your ass is one thing. It's a lot different when you're playing at home and people are cheering you on. I don't buy they are checked out but I get that we're all seeing what we want to see right now because we're angry.

    Sark was hired 6 months before NIL was passed and nobody knew what it would be at the time. Since then we have been in the top 5 spending teams in the country. 

    In 10 years when hes been fired at the NFL and struggling at UCLA we will realize we won in spite of him and not because of him. 

    CDC has hired two coaches in baseball and basketball that played for national championships and were/are considered to be in the top 5 at their jobs. 

    Yeah, hiring a baseball or basketball coach is a lot easier than pulling "whomever we want" out of some place in football with a lot less teams and other people also having money. So I'll ask you again, who exactly do you think we can pull? Freeman at Notre Dame? Kiffin? DeBoer? Cignitetti? There aren't just a ton of no-brainer hires. It's all going to be rolling the dice if Sark is out.

    For the record we mud holed OU (again)and don’t let them forget it. It was the one bright moment this season.

    And considering that OU has won in Knoxville and Tuscaloosa with that shitty offense, you're damn right it was a mudhole.

    Bama was in year one after losing the greatest CFB coach of all time. We’re in year 5 of a guy that should have never been offered the job. 

    Yes, because Bama replaced that head coach with another really good head coach that almost won a national championship with a Pac 12 school. You don't think there was some great roster talent still at Alabama after Saban left? DeBoer was a no brainer hire for anyone. Yet still lost a head scratcher to a shitty OU team that kept his team out of the playoff. And there was a point where the fans wanted him run out on a rail both last season and after FSU.

    This is a much different job than before and CDC/Admin will have the opportunity to poach anybody not named Day/Smart/Lanning.

    Such as? I love when this board throws this out given our history of coaching hires has never had this be the case other than we almost got the guy we wanted to poach.
