  1. There are MANY things to be upset about over DeLoss's tenure. Not sure this is top 10. As pissed as I am at the Big XII, being stuck in the PAC doesn't look like that great of deal either.
  2. I'm confused too, I clearly recall the Mackovic years and I don't remember seeing any Defense.
  3. Yeah Murfdogg I am, if you were building a team who would take Max Duggan over Bijan? Other than maybe Jerry Jones and whoever the idiots are running the Browns.
  4. They probably have too much competition from the mobile home parks, likely surpressing the price.
  5. I'm offended that they have chosen to take it out on Bijan and Ford. It was bad enough that the refs in the OK Lite game and the Baylor game (same crew maybe?) chose to call one penalty for 2 yards in 8 quarters of football on Texas opponents. But to name Max Duggan over Bijan and Anduike-Uzomah over Ford is bull. I get it, they want to exact a pound of flesh for us leaving but I HATE them for taking it out on our players. I wonder how much they would try and fine us for removing all Big XII logos from our fields, stadiums and uniforms.
  6. Oh I think the state of Florida will make it to where he has some portal problems.
  7. I liked something about every system we have been under. I did have a fondness for the way it was when I was kid, beat OU and totally RUIN their season in one shot. It was glorious. Now that playoffs are here that has faded, so why not skip a scheduled season and go triple or quad elimination tournament. Maybe you could make some modifications with two or three games before the start for seeding so you would play a minimum number of games. I think it would be kind of interesting not knowing who you would be playing (or if) next week or the week after. Would probably require doing an alternating home and away schedule, but not anything that couldn't be worked out.
  8. Also amazing, when Pontiac dropped that thing on the world almost nobody drove a car like that (mid size crossover). Now they are everywhere, albeit none as ugly as that thing was.
  9. If half the stuff that was being said about Herman was true, we didn't exactly have a paragon of virtue showing up at Belmont every day. Not sure how this puts us that far ahead of Auburn. He was a paragon of virtue signaling... so there is that.
  10. Nice little screed, but you make some assumptions (with a couple of variations) that I respectfully question. Woven throughout, you assume to know what motivates another individual. It's something we all do but it's faulty. Are all of the soldiers fighting for Russia right now doing it because they love Putin? Of course not. It's a wide variety of motivations, and internal priorities, just like a 17-18 YO football recruit. We all deal with limited brain power and so we simplify. It works to some degree, no doubt SOME players will be swayed totally by money. Does Texas recruit itself? To some degree, but if it were only Texas then Ewers would have stayed with his original commitment, correct? I would also argue that turning over an entire starting 22 "at a lower profile school" is a different prospect than doing the same thing at a blue blood. You have stated you "off the Sark bandwagon" previously, and I don't mean this with any disrespect, but you are letting your emotion cloud your logic.
  11. Texas 42 Baylor 14 (with early release for good behaviour) Bijan 202
  12. My God, a well thought out and considered take on this thread... What is the world coming to? Shall this be allowed to stand? Surely we need another few pages of people going full Aggy!
  13. Sorry to hear it. Hope he has a speedy and complete recovery!
  14. It wasn't the physical proximity to the crash, I had worked directly with one of the B-17 guys and may have met one other. As for UVA, it always seems to hit me hard when young life is destroyed. I logically know that not all kids are going to live long lives, but it doesn't mean I don't really hate it/deal with it poorly when it happens.
  15. The airshow plane crash this weekend and the UVA shooting have left me in no mood for humor, dark or otherwise. May God bless and keep the families of those we have lost, I hate that they are going through this.
  16. Did I miss it, are they going to make "Popeye II"?
  17. So you're saying he's an internet version of Dave South?
  18. Texas - 42 TCU-35 Passing yards 580
  19. Oh, now you've done it, how dare you come in here with facts and clarity... this shall not stand i tell you!
  20. Who suggested that? However, if we ever want to climb out of the hole we’ve been in continuity IS a consideration. Short of Charlie Strong levels of ineptitude, firing a coach after 3 years is counterproductive.
  21. I think it could be structured properly, so I don't think "Any" extension would be a mistake. The 3-4 year coaching spiral has been at least as destructive as anything Patterson or Strong did to us, and yet some continue to chase lightning in a bottle and dismiss obvious progress as insufficient. With a two season sample size at UT DKR was 13-7-1 and at his previous stops his H.C. record was 17-13. I wonder what our history would look like if we fired him after his 4th season (1960 7-3-1). I am not saying that Sark is the next DKR, but IMO it's time to stop chasing our tail. I used to love it when the Aggies would fire their coach every few years, it means what it always does. A few more years of changes, with the usual "he has to get his guys", "He needs to make some coordinator changes", ect. cycle and repeat
  22. Long version--I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that compatibility wasn't high enough on your list and that as a younger man you were distracted by some other attributes that were less important in the long term. Short version-Big boobs or a nice ass?
