  1. I just dropped by to say my kids and I got on the Jumbotron when they played we will rock you. Great job ladies. Big 12 Champs! Taking it fucking with us on our way out.
  2. If Jimbo stayed, they would play through next season likely losing 4 games and end up with a team with poor morale, a dead coach walking, and having players sit out their administration’s Super Bowl against Texas. Now, while yes they have a built in excuse (1st year head coach) they also can tell them (similar to what UH told coach redbull) you can go 1-11 next year as long as that 1 win is against Texas. The next coach will design their offensive and defensive identity around creating the optimal base scheme that will most effective against Texas. Spring ball, fall camp, and every bye week will be focused on Texas. The coaches will watch and analyze film on Texas all season long and will have the team prepared to play spoiler. Their best chance at beating us is letting the mercenary players go back to New Jersey or Tennessee, and build a roster full of true believers in a coach (like Traylor, who imo would be the worst hire for us since he can leverage his Wast Texas roots and THSFB coaching connections, but aggy is hopefully too proud to go after a UTSA coach) who are in it for the long haul. They could only do this with a new coach with proper expectations set in advance of hiring. No way you could do that with a year seven Jimbo.
  3. FUCK! HUGE IF TRUE. I’ll call them up right away. Thanks for the heads up. You are a true friend of the program.
  4. His agent Timmy Sexplant
  5. Yes, the State gave UTIMCO control over aggy’s portion of the PUF/AUF because they regularly fucked up so much with the State’s money.
  6. Might have been the most balanced called game this year both sides got some freebie and some bad calls but I think nothing was intentional, just everyday incompetence (which is a welcome change of pace for Texas fans). Sark calling them out likely had something to do with it…
  7. Classy fans
  8. That was bad. They pointed and drew him offsides. Also he got back so they should have just picked up the flag.
  9. Didn’t take long, but I was off on the breakdown. https://awfulannouncing.com/ncaa/big-12s-pro-rata-clause-reportedly-applies-only-to-power-five-schools-espns-part-of-media-rights-deal.html This original data for this analysis came from Sports Business Journal https://sportsbusinessjournal.com/SB-Blogs/Newsletter-College/2022/11/01.aspx
  10. I believe it was $23mil from ESPN and $9mil from FOX. I’ll be sitting in the Denver airport later today, will see if I can find a source.
  11. It’s not a contractual dedicated or exclusive afternoon slot. They can put on figure skating, NASCAR, or Big Ten volleyball if they want but if they want a college football game it’s either the Big 12 (which they pay $9mil/yr per school) or the MWC (which they pay $2mil/yr per school).
  12. Bingo, if you’ve driven on I35 in the last decade you know they’ve been expanding the fucking highway from Laredo to Denton. It’s one of the busiest highways in the country which all bottlenecks in downtown Austin. Billions or dollars in state and federal money is not going to go to waste for some idealistic pie in the sky vision. The 130 was the opportunity of a lifetime but the City and CTRMA was too stupid or too corrupt to see it. They’ve had years to see this coming, the highway literally North and South of downtown have been expanded or are expanding. The time to fight this was YEARS ago, now they’re just wasting effort.
  13. I call 100% bullshit, on them “adding” a 4th lane. Most of that road already had 4 lanes save a 2 mile stretch between Braker and Anderson Mill, but they didn’t build anything they just restriped the mother fucking lanes. Not only that but they restriped the lanes in places where it has 4 lanes already and took road away from the free lanes. These fuckers absolutely will piss on your leg and tell you it’s raining and nobody ever fucking calls them on it.
  14. Seriously these things are stupid as fuck. They narrow the roads hundreds of cars take an hour for fucking weekend road warriors. I never see anyone fucking using these mother fucking bike lanes during rush hour. Multiple road I frequent have had the ability to right turn completely fucked up leading to more congestion and even more dangerous traffic situations for these fucking bike pylons. Such a great “mobility” project. I hope anyone who supported these gets an infected hemorrhoid that pops while riding their ten speed.
  15. We don’t pay anything. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/big12/2023/09/22/texas-oklahoma-big-12-sec-espn-role-realignment/70910157007/
  16. Incorrect, we are not paying them a penny. Texas/OU “gave up” revenue from 2024 (when we will not be playing in this conference) and agreed to take the same revenue hair cut as the other 8 for the addition of the 4 noobs. Other than that we paid $0 to leave.
  17. I don’t think that is correct. The SEC’s spot are set, they just don’t know which game goes where: 230 CBS (99% chance it’s UGA/OleMiss) 6 ESPN (likely TN/Mizzou but could be UF/LSU) 730 SECN (likely UF/LSU but could be TN/Mizzou) 11 ESPN is Bama/UK 630 ESPN2 is MSU/aggy 11 SECN is Vandy/SC 3 SECN is Aub/Ark So if you’re saying ESPN is strategically waiting for CBS to state the obvious then maybe you’re right, but I don’t see how it makes a big difference here. I’m predicting it’s 230 by the way.
  18. The guys at FBschedules.com update their stuff fairly quickly. https://fbschedules.com/college-football-tv-schedule/ It’s between our game and Miami/FSU for the 230/prime spot on ABC. 230 seems most likely based on the competition.
  19. Look at post #3 many of those have been announced. WVU/Oklahoma is FOX Prime and Cincy/UH is FS1 Prime and the SEC#2 game (likely TN/Mizzou as UGA/Ole Miss has to be #1) game is ESPN Prime.
  20. Guessing Miami/FSU in Prime Time opposite TN/Mizzou, WVU/OU, MSU/aggy, OhioSt/MichSt they’ll put us on the 230 game opposite Utah/Washington and UGA/OleMiss.
  21. I saw the ghost of Elvis on Union Avenue.
  22. Would you like to make a bet that Texas will once again be 14 out of 14 next year in penalty yards? Hell I’ll spot you the 2 additions and give you 14 out of 16. Or would you rather bet that Texas has 50% fewer penalty yards than the conference mean next year? (Big 12 avg=42.2 yrd/gm; Texas is 21.2 yrd/gm) I’ll happily bet you $10k. I’ll send it over to immamac if you would do the same, I’ll even donate my winnings to the NIL fund? You care to put your money where your mouth is?
  23. I gots to get better man, it gots to move on. Switched from Motorola to a PrimeCo ONE expansion drones.
