  1. It's almost as if the bar by which Indiana measures an exciting coaching hire and the bar by which Texas measures an exciting coaching hire are different. Imagine that.
  2. I grabbed beers with a buddy this week who was just getting over being sick, but still coughing a lot. I joked about how I hoped he hadn't been to China recently, and (as he continued coughing) he said "no, but my brother just got back from China in December right before I saw him for Christmas." It really bugged me the rest of the time we were there until I finally realized that his brother would be in obviously bad shape at this point if he had it. I've got two little kids at home, and wouldn't have been able to contain my feelings if what happened to you happened with them. If you've been anywhere around the known infected zones you should be a good person and just quarantine yourself until you're beyond the symptom window. It's just common sense at this point.
  3. He'd make a great position coach, maybe an analyst.
  4. How much upside is there in announcing the coach at this point anyway? Unless he was recruiting these guys at a previous spot, he has zero time to build any relationship. Much better to send Carrington on the road at this stage, regardless of the new hire.
  5. He never said they were particularly impressive skins. Just...skins.
  6. Someone with photoshop skills needs to update the Jimbo 20__ national championship plaque picture to be a 20__ snipe hunting national championship plaque. That is too perfect.
  7. I think you guys are failing to understand how much he doesn't care. He doesn't care so much that he came here, registered, and wrote a long ass post just to make sure we all understand exactly how much we care and he doesn't. He doesn't care so much that he came back hours later on a Saturday night to read the replies and again reiterate how he doesn't care because of how insignificant we are in his aggy eyes, and how his posts here should prove that. You guys are acting like he's a typical low self esteem, insecure aggy buffoon who is so desperate for attention and validation that he's come over here to "put us sips in our place" with his fightin aggy spirit. If you read his post, he clearly points out that he didn't come here, register an account, and start posting out of his ass because he cares about us or what we think, he did all of that because he DOESN'T care.
  8. The...[chuckle]...illustrious...[audible giggle]...SEC...[uncontrollable laughter]...EAST.
  9. When we finally got Shepherd committed, quite a few people speculated there was a low probability he stuck around. Not that Princely is even in the same stratosphere of concerning behavior, but I do get the same feeling here. If he wants to commit, you probably still take him on the chance he sticks because he has potential to be an impact player, but he feels like a highish portal candidate as well.
  10. "When you feel so mad that you want to fuss, take two steps back, and get hit by a bus!"
  11. Considering you've made your way to registering and posting on a Texas site, I'm guessing you don't either.
  12. I don't believe it was ever actually about the site, so much as winning the promise of a sweet three fiddy.
  13. I've thought about this and honestly hope it's true. It is way less scary than the alternative.
  14. That really is the case on the old site these days, and that bizarre fucker is still posting. There are entire game threads where it's just him, posting updates to himself, all game long. I'm not sure what kind of messed up you have to be to want to keep that shit going for months on end, but it's not normal.
  15. Those are some bad posters. What are you doing hanging out on a board with those posters? What did you think was going to happen?
  16. Ok, so what happens if they blueshirt him, he doesn't play this season, and then between this and next season they decide they don't want him? Can they process him without having to use a number from 21, or does blueshirting him now require that they use a 21 scholarship on him?
  17. Only if the poster was saying something disparaging about South Austin's mom.
  18. Okam obviously should have known he was going to Rhule's staff also, before he wasted his time interviewing with us.
  19. I was going to say probably not after the way they shredded his defense this year, but let's be honest, no one they faced really had much success against that o save for maybe Auburn.
  20. Here's how I see this playing out. Riley: Texas is a huge risk. That's an entirely new staff, and you really have no idea what their defense is going to look like. Collins: yes, but I do know what yours looks like. Riley:
  21. Charlie, Muschamp, some more I can't currently think of as I'm half listening to a work call. Biggest red flag is selecting awful OC's. Look at Charlie and Muschamp. Their failure was ensured from the moment they hired their offensive staff.
  22. You say that like it has some relevance to the urgency of our coaching searches...
  23. Yeah. Jimbo's going to cut him loose, show him the consequences of his actions. You know who does that? Schools with actual options. Schools like Georgia. You know who comes running for the scraps when Georgia punishes guys like Evans for bad be behavior?...
