  1. Whining about the refs and their grand conspiracy against us is the most embarrassing loser aggy shit. Obviously the refs are doing nothing to help us out but we’ve had plenty of (mostly unimportant) chickenshit calls go our way over the years and gotten away with uncalled holding, PI, targeting, etc countless times, much like our opponents. Maybe we typically have more penalties than our opponents because we’ve mostly fielded poorly coached undisciplined teams for over a decade now.
  2. Oh, can’t they? That’s not a challenge you want to issue to our players IMO.
  3. I think we’re agreeing?
  4. That’s allowed now, so we damn well better be.
  5. Thats why the move made no sense to me. Sure, Sark could end up working out but nothing about his resume suggests he’s an upgrade. His biggest accomplishments as HC were on par with Herman’s Texas tenure. We could be 4-3 with Herman right now and be in a position to hire someone who has accomplished something better than bowl eligibility in his HC career. Or maybe Herman would’ve done better who knows. Either way why bet the next several years on a lateral move?
  6. That excuse doesn’t fly when you’re getting utterly abused by Okie Lite. They’d gladly trade rosters with us. Imagine what Sark’s record would look like if he had Gundy’s recruits to work with.
  7. He really is all gas no brakes. He has the script and he is going straight ahead with it. He will not divert from his Game Plan no matter how thoroughly the other side has shut it down.
  8. Ah but that’s just what the defense would expect him to do. You’re not thinking like the kind of supergenius who can put together a good offense at Bama.
  9. Seven Win Steve in full effect.
  10. To this very day, Lincoln Riley literally cannot and does not Believe It’s Not Butter
  11. What makes a job “better” than another? The ceiling for success at Texas is as high as anywhere, and the money is pretty good but not as much as some places are paying. But god damn being the HC at Texas looks like a miserable way to make a living and by far the most likely outcome is getting run out of town on a rail sooner or later. I clearly don’t have the mentality of an elite CFB coach because if I could make all the money I’d ever need (i.e. well into 7 figures a year) at some place where they’re happy to be bowl eligible most years and I mostly get left alone vs getting $5m plus to probably eat shit and be the most despised/mocked person in Austin I know what I’d choose.
  12. Yeah his experience in the SEC clearly gives him a huge advantage against SEC teams. I guess whoever coaches Rice must have spent decades in the SEC and have more talent than us because they were vastly more competitive with Arky than Sarky.
  13. But his Bama stint is the reason he’s at Texas. Without that, no way does he get the offer.
  14. He was able to score a lot of points as an OC when he had 5*s three deep at every position and Saban’s team culture. That’s it. Taking UW from being super garbage to being bowl eligible and never progressing beyond that is his sole accomplishment as HC. If he turns out to be successful here it will be the first time.
  15. Damn straight. Most of this bunch of miserable SOBs won't get it, but they ought to hear it anyway.
  16. Yeah but we were at least in the game and looked like we could win it if we’d just get our shit together. Tom Herman absolutely lost games and very nearly lost games to teams who never should’ve been competitive with us. He just didn’t get blown the fuck out by anybody. He never trotted out a team that didn’t look like they belonged on the field with the opponent. The team we trotted out last night had absolutely no chance of even making it a contest with a basement dwelling Arky team that has won 3 conference games in 3 years, led by a position coach.
  17. I mean yeah it’s game two, and much remains to be seen about how the Sark era will play out. But it took Sark two weeks to fail harder than Mensa ever did in four years, so for someone who never liked or understood the hire to begin with this sure doesn’t make me see it any different. If we’d let Herman have another season to try and get over the hump we’d be in a better position than we are today. Better because we wouldn’t have just been utterly crushed for 60 minutes by a team that sucks, and because we’d still be in a position to fire a middling coach and get a good one if that opportunity came up. We’re stuck with Sark for 3-4 years at least. Maybe Sark will put it all together here, anything’s possible. I just can’t see any reason to think it will happen.
  18. Tom never got dominated bell to bell like this. By anyone. This was straight Charlie shit.
  19. No break.
  20. You were saying…
  21. Not much of an improvement? Did Tom Herman’s teams ever get crushed like this, against anybody? Granted he let inferior teams hang around and too often let them win but we were always in the game. We were never in this one.
  22. I'm so bewildered that the dumb choo choo song somehow became the line in the sand, for either side. You can't throw a rock on our campus without hitting something that has a history steeped in racism, but the battle rages over the choo choo song of all things.
  23. That about sums it up. Casey looks like starter material, he just had the misfortune to be behind Sam and ahead of Card. I hope he sticks around at least through this season, because I think he'll get playing time and if anything goes wrong he could get a lot of playing time. But ultimately you have to expect people to do what is right for them, and if he can go get a starter job elsewhere I don't see what will stop him from doing that.
  24. The alternate is camouflaged as a normal uniform
  25. If an actual burnt orange helmet longhorn was good enough for Earl Campbell, it's good enough now.
