  1. Auburn 's FG kicker. Fuck's sake.
  2. OK fat fuck. Let's see the upside down Hook 'Em at the end of the game.
  3. Fucking LOL. The first thread I see on Texags, obviously a few minutes old, is called "Shutout Watch". https://texags.com/forums/5/topics/3493275
  4. That describes my oldest and youngest. My oldest just finished up her MBA in Tennessee last year. She's doing great. She wouldn't have been able to sniff UT with her GPA. She would have loved to have gone to Texas, but it didn't bother her that she didn't have the grades to even apply. My youngest is much the same. He loves UT, but he'll be fine if he ends up somewhere else. The middle child, referenced above, is different. He's very introverted and on the spectrum. He'll take a possible rejection personally. Yes, I know it's life, but it just sucks that he's doing far better academically than my wife (Tennessee grad) or me, but admission it appears to be a coin flip.
  5. Thanks again for all the advice.
  6. Really? When is that going to happen? Junk ass weak schedule.
  7. Forgot how much I hate miami (1990 / too soon) until tonight. Piece of shit school.
  8. His first love is film, which is apparently very competitive. Less than 25% acceptance rate. His second love, however, is math/statistics. It appears as if that might be an easier path per acceptance. I believe math may be in the College of Natural Sciences. Coincidentally, education may be his best bet. My wife and I are both teachers. I'll see what he thinks about that.

    Really? Like I stated, I'm naive to the entire process. So, avoid d8. Got it

    Ok. Laugh all you want but, have I been macrodosing every day for over a year? Pic of what I've been taking is below. I began taking this stuff due to pretty severe insomnia. I have slept better; however, I've slowly developed an extreme amount of anxiety. Is it the gummies? 2500 mgs divided by 20 is 125. I'm seeing that anything over 100 mgs is considered a macro dose; however, I have no idea what percentage is D8 or D9. Have I been taking too much? I'd love to be able to sleep but not at the expense of feeling like everyone is out to get me. I'm sure this goes without saying, but my experience with pot is extremely limited. I may have been the only person in Austin to attend UT for 4 years and never touch the stuff. Hence the dumb question.
  11. Ok. Looking for some advice. My son is dead set on getting in to Texas. The problem is that he attends an IB school in an open district (Garland). So every kid with a brain, for the most part, chooses GHS due to IB. This is a district of over 300,000 because it includes Rowlett and Sachse, so lots of smartypantses. My son currently sits at exactly 7%. He has a 3.85 GPA on a 4.0 scale, scored a 1370 on the SAT, and has all kinds of positive references, clubs, etc... We took an official tour over the summer and heard much of the same stuff that has been mentioned on this thread - that is the importance of the essay and extracurricular activities. I'm having a hard time determining if he's screwed or not by not being inside the cutoff. Assuming he does well on the essay, any idea what our odds are? I get that TX has high standards and lots and lots of applications, but it seems shitty that he would be adversely affected because he attends an extremely competitive (academically, definitely not football) school. Poor kid. When I attended Garland, I had a 3.1 GPA and finished in the Top 5% due to IB showing up the year after I graduated. I don't recall even writing an essay.
  12. I damn near got in a fist fight with one of my best friends (Vol grad) who accused TX of running up the score. If TX wanted to run up the score, they would have scored 100.
  13. Rule #1 of Survivor - Shut your effing mouth.
  14. It is pretty crazy how often they've missed at WR. We were pretty bummed (at the time) to not get a handful of those guys.
  15. I'm just so thankful for where Texas is at, I don't get as mad.
  16. He was very complimentary of Texas in whatever documentary I watched him in a few years ago. He also flipped me off on 635 when I was like 10 years old. I had given him a Hook 'Em.
  17. Well.... About that.
  18. He said, "Booty pressure".
  19. I have past of flipping burgers at Braums, so this hits close to home.
  20. I know rivalry game and all, but Good Lord we should curb stomp ou this year.
  21. Lol. Casey Thompson should starts.
  22. Thanks man. I found it
  23. Sorry. Out of the loop. What is "here"?
  24. I probably know him then. Class of '91.
