  1. He’s probably a dentist!
  2. Among other points about Traylor, I was responding to this notion that he would be considered by Texas at some future point. And my response is, if it’s true he was on a list in 2020, this Texas program is well past that point. Whether you share that take or are ascribing it to the wisdom of other Surlies, I strenuously object.
  3. What if someone tries to rob me while I’m cleaning my gun, smart guy?
  4. Texas in 2020 coming off of Tom Herman and Charlie Strong is so much different than what Texas is now with Steve Sarkisian, so it wouldn’t surprise me if Jeff Traylor was somewhere on somebody’s list at the time, though I’ve seen nothing to indicate that was more than fan fiction. Also, the NIL/transfer portal landscape of college football today is a different beast, and a coach at a place like UTSA does not have the fluency of that environment like a head coach or coordinator at a strong P5 program. If Sark does leave for the NFL, it’s because Texas is performing miles above the mess it had been in when we were on our last head coaching search. I seriously doubt Texas will hire a coach from a program like UTSA to replace Sark. It’s nice what Traylor has done there, and if he’s going to keep his Texas dream alive, that’s really great, much like Katie Ledecky is holding out for closetojumping. But I think Texas is way past Jeff Traylor. My mind could be changed if he gets UTSA into the playoffs on more than one occasion. But until that might happen, Taylor and his fanboys should more realistically set their expectations. My grip is fine, good sir. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
  5. I’m sure it was discussed on Surly, but that doesn’t make it a reality or a remote possibility. Texas isn’t going from Steve Sarkisian to Jeff Traylor. Get a grip.
  6. Why on earth would Taylor be waiting for the Texas job to open?
  7. Hey @closetojumping, if Katie Ledecky doesn’t do it for you, how about this?
  8. With any luck, Ben Arbuckle’s got the grail already.
  9. I recalled that Barron played man on him for much of the game. However, I was also nonsober for much of the second half.
  10. Yeah. He’s done some badass stuff in his life, but Man v. Wild had some exaggerated theatrics, and he caught shit for staying in hotels at some locations.
  11. Why less focused? It’s the Swamp. And Texas will be coming off three lackluster non conference matchups and eagerly anticipating the SEC opener. I’m not worried about the team’s focus.
  12. Unfortunately your friends are going back to England with a complete misimpression of how Texas is shaped.
  13. I’ll never stop loving chicken nuggets.
  14. It’s worth a reminder that Jahdae Barron’s defense of Jeremiah Smith in the semifinal is one of the most impressive performances I’ve seen from a Texas defensive back in my lifetime as a Longhorns fan.
  15. How can you expect more from Jesus, your Lord and personal savior?
  16. A lot of my gifs are pulled from Yarn, and I’ve noticed for whatever reason that those images can show up one day and then blank out another. I’m an imbecile, but not for this.
  17. Wrong. He once rushed for 4 yards, and the stadium went wild.
  18. The Art of the Shine Box.
  19. I am aware. If this season had a schedule more like that, I'd be closer to making it my last. But as I indicated, I'll be in for at least one more season.
  20. Do you mean for the 2025 season, or some other year when Danny Young was in the backfield?
