  1. Elko's not turning them down. If you believe that scoundrel @closetojumping he's actively lobbying for the job. He just gave a non-denial denial re: his interest in the position. That being said, if they fire Jimbo and end up with fucking Elko, I will laugh heartily. I'm still rooting for Dabo so we get to ride this rollercoaster again. It's a really fun ride.
  2. I don’t disagree. I just don’t think you can call it a red flag.
  3. Its fucking UTSA. They’re not gonna have a winning record vs top 50 teams regardless of how good their coach is. Kirby smart wouldn’t have a winning record. Be realistic here.
  4. While I don't think the next hire is going to be able to demand the same stupid contract they gave Jimbo, I don't see any scenario where someone takes the job for less than what they're paying their former coach annually. The floor is the $7+ million they're paying Jimbo to fuck off. You can't still be paying the old guy you fired more than you're paying the new guy.
  5. Please hire Dabo. Please hire another former national championship winning coach whose best days are behind them, who rode the coattails of generational college quarterbacks, who is also unwilling to adapt to the changing landscape of college football, and whose program is already on the downslide. Please, please, please do this?
  6. I guess they can always come up with the money, but having to pay Fisher for the next eight years means they better get it right with the next guy. Because if they fire the next guy after 4 years, and will likely have to buy the next guy out, they’ll be paying three head coaches at once for a year or four.
  7. I think they wanted to make it official before the unlikely scenario of an LSU upset, which would have been even more awkward. If you know you want to fire the guy, get it over with.
  8. Property rich districts like Austin ISD? How's that working out? I support recapture in theory. I have no problem with a share of my property taxes being allocated to improve the quality of education and supplement the resources of property-poor districts whose basic needs are not being met. I'm not OK with Prosper ISD getting $100 million dollars in recapture and then having the audacity to try to pass a bond to spend almost the exact same amount as they get in recapture to build a football stadium, even if that bond didn't pass. If you can raise $100 million for football, you shouldn't be taking $100 million from the taxpayers of Austin, Dallas and Houston.
  9. The only other conferences that apply to this conversation are Big14, the PAC2 and SEC. For the Big14, whoever wins the OSU/MI game will likely win the conference and leave one very strong one-loss team in the mix for the playoffs. Whoever plays in PAC2 and SEC championship games will face a higher-quality opponent than whomever we theoretically play in our championship game. Washington, Oregon, Bama and Georgia are the presumptive favorites to make their championship game, and all are ranked in the top 8. OK State, OU and Kansas are far, far below with no chance to move up in the polls. Our conference championship game will not give us a statistical boost over a one-loss team that wins either other conference.
  10. Oh fuuuuuuuck man. That's the good stuff Just shoot it right into my veins!
  11. They'd go after Urban Meyer and, if they could come up with the money, I think he'd consider it. UM loves attention and aggy loves to deify their football coach. The relationship would be a self-sustaining positive feedback loop of circle-jerkery. They'd let him run the program like he's The Captain from Cool Hand Luke and claim that anyone questioning his abuse of players is just some tea-sippin' liberal pussy. But I don't think he'd take less than what they paid Jimbo and I'm not sure if they can come up with the money.
  12. Is that supposed to make Kiffin look bad? That’s just standard recruit talk. Jesus. Even their players are fucking weird.
  13. Have you tried cooking the brisket in the oven in a metal turkey pan with the liquid smoke? Because if not, that's your problem right there.
  14. I lived in an apartment off Barton Skyway from 1999-2001 and ate at that IHOP at 2:30am SOOOOOOOOOOO many times. Machacada con huevos with a roasted jalapeno.
  15. Leftover sloppy joe. Threw some American on top as as somewhat of a cheese blanket to try to keep the sloppy joe meet somewhat contained. Results were mixed. Topped with pickled red onions and jalapeños.
  16. This is a celebration, bitches. Keep that petty shit outta here.
