    be aggressive and throw deep and down the middle with some misdirection added in here and there like salt in a pot of chili could be a package. 

    If he is the better QB than just let him play.  I am not saying he is, but you don't do the whole bring in the package QB with a guy who has been in the system for what 2 years? to replace the 5th year QB?  QB packages are what you do for the true freshman that hasn't figured it out yet but is an amazing talent.  Not the Redshirt sophmore who should know the full playbook.  I hate the QB package idea in general....I really hate it in this situation. 

    Let the best QB play whichever it is. Don't be jerking them in and out of the game on some hackneed package substitutions.

    Herb Hand should be fucking fired.  We had 3 years to find a center and they invested everything in Ghirmai  who looked horrible from the start.  Only to move our all conference RT to Center.  These coaches simply do not know how to put the pieces together.  This should have been our fucking roster from the start.

    QB:  Sam/with Casey mixed in every 4-5 drives with a package

    RB:  Bijan starting with RoJo spelling him only when Bijan is tired.

    LT:  Cosmi

    RG:  Angilau

    Center:  Majors

    RG: Karic/Okafor

    RT:  Kerstetter

    WR:  Whittington/Smith at Slot, Moore/Dixon at Y, and Eagles at X.  

    TE:  Wiley

     

    That offense would have put up points from the start.  With regards to the OL, look at what Bama does.  They start all of their young talented tackles at guard.  Karic should have started there because he is head and shoulders better than Okafor.  If inside zone is not working with Ingram and your previous personnel, then find what your offense is good at and fucking run those schemes.  It's sad that they are just now learning that putting Bijan and Whittington in space is instant offense.  Where was this all fucking year?!?!  Bama and other programs get their 5 star backs incorporated day fucking 1.  We couldn't get Bijan up to speed on fucking outside zone earlier?  It's so frustrating.  It's a reflection of our head coach that simply believes his old offense works best regardless of players in there as long as they "execute".  He needs to learn to evolve, change, and utilize his team's strengths.

    What the hell is that?  There is nothing dynamic that Casey brings that he needs a package for him....  If he plays it's because he beats out Same or whomever else there is on the team.  He isn't some dynamic change of pace that you create a package around.....

  3. George C Scott in a Christmas Carol has long been my favorite Christmas movie.  Watching while reading a 176 year old copy of the book makes it even better.

    A Dog Named Christmas is also very good.

    Yeah so has ctj here. Ground breaking info there caddox

    I don't know if Caddox knows squat or not, but he was the 1st person on here to report that CDC was in over his head and had been removed from the decision process and that Hartzell and Etifle were driving the bus(this would have been on the 12th I think? You can search back through the thread). Dbeasy lost his mind about something he was told right before that, which he never expounded on, but I am guessing that was it.  About 5 days after that CTJ started using the Crystal name in regard to CDC and reporting he was in over his head.

     

    Again, not sure how legit he is, but if you are looking for data points in his favor, no one else was corroborating that on here.  I have no idea what 9.95ers were reporting.

    You really don’t have the credibility to be calling out anyone’s opinion or conclusions, sir. 

    Sir, it's an anonymous sports message board focusing largely on the exploits of 16-24 year old men....nobody has any credibility.....

    Id be ok with that but I suspect Urban would be jonesing for that job.

    If the reports about Notre Dame academics and lack of pay and financial support are accurate........I don't care what Urban says he aint going to ND if they aren't going to pay for him to have his support staff and coaches and to be able to keep them there.

    Can we just all agree that Houston and Dallas suck?  They're both urban sprawl hell holes.  

     

    Hey Urban, Austin is the only city in TX worth living in.  

    Austin hasn't been worth "Living in" in close to 20 years.....

    Which one of you assholes is leaking our shit?

    That's giving Ketch too much credit. He probably heard people talking about what's discussed on this board while dipping his McDonald's value meal in bacon grease.

    Ok, John Mackovic had no connections to Texas either before coming to Texas, outside of a short stint with the Cowboys.

    It isn’t particularly useful to use the top coach in college history as a comparison tool. The chances of falling into a guy like that are extremely low.

     

    It also isn't particularly useful to assume an experienced intelligent successful coach can't know how to adjust and acclimate to a new area he hasn't coached in before and maybe even build new connections....Lord knows that has never happened...

    Fickell has no connection to Texas at all. Spent his entire playing and coaching career in the midwest. Not sold on him being a good option.

    Saban had no connections in the south or Texas either before leaving MSU for LSU, outside of a short stint with the Cowboys. (Credit to @closetojumping for the research in that regard)

    Seems odd that BJ would be coy about rumors related to the status quo. Why not just say he’s hearing Herman is coming back?

    FWIW Trey is convinced Herman is gone. 

    Yeah "mumblings" and "you'll have to wait and see" make no sense with a Herman returning hint.

    This board will go insane if Meyer is announced....for a different program.

    Not really.  Most will just go away.  There will be a dedicated circle of 6 or 7 of ya'll doing your impersonations of Satya and CTJ will be dropping breadcrumbs of how Texas blew it behind the scenes....

    Hungover. Thermometer went out last night so ignore the holes. Just hit 203 internal, time to pull and rest for at least two hours

    been meaning to ask btw.....do you subscribe to the "book of Franklin" and put espresso on your brisket?

    Don't know if he still does, but when he first hit it big I remember him talking about it being a big ingredient for him........Don't use it myself....but I'm not a celebrity BBQ Chef and don't have near his amount of money so...

    These were my go-to boots when I worked in the oilfield. Didn’t need to polish. And when they got dusty, muddied up or had to pull wash bay duties on pumps, well, you could just spray em down, keep your feet dry and they’d look as new as the day you bought em.

    Currently considering buying some Lucchese bull hides. Relatively cheap and still look good. My current job presents opportunities for scuffing and marring. Not nearly as much as the oilfield. I feel like bull hide can take the beating but I have never had any. Can anybody weigh in? TIA

    For Work boots I like their Rudy.  There's a whole slew of different designs on their website with em. They are danged comfortable to wear.

    If you want some nice dress boots-  Go into one of their actual showrooms and get measured for some of their Classic line.  They are pricey but not ML Leddy money.

    Oh, I know - but many of those historic ranches make it a point to follow "the old ways".  For the smaller hobby ranches/farms, you just need to get in and get out and a brand you can plug in to your truck and instantly heats up evenly is perfect.  Use a squeeze shoot.  No ropes.  No large fire that has to burn down into coals.  No multiple brands in and out of the fire, checking for the proper temp and consistently.  Just easier.  

    Most of the smaller Cow Calf operations around here don't even brand. It has to be a bigger spread for most of em to mess with branding.

     

    When I worked more to the east side of the state most of the operations there didn't even cut their calves.  The price difference at the auction barn wasn't worth the trouble.  Seen some data of late that bears that out.  East end of the state until about I45 or so, cutting calves isn't nearly as common.  West of I35 your losing money if you don't.  Between there it just varies.

    Lots of buyers prefer their calves to be knife-cut.  I absolutely hate banding (not branding), and only do it to the few bull calves that are born after the spring round-up and we go to grass.  

    Oh in full agreement. Just telling you what the science claims.
