  1. Someone from tos posted this summary of today’s zoom. Accurate overall. I didn’t take notes like this because fuck that. I was able to attend a zoom call with Sark today. Below are items covered:Sark watched the bowl game and felt we had some good young players that played hard, physical and with pride.Feels like he has a good nucleus of players to work with. Not where we want to be, but not a rebuild.Question asked about name image likeness. Said probably more of a CDC question, but said Texas can help them develop their brand not just while they are at UT, but after they graduate.Hopes to finalize staff by end of week, with an announcement. Feels like staff has a great blend of recruiters and developers. He feels we have the top staff in the country. Someone ask a question about what makes the SEC so good. He said a combo of 3 things. 1) great coaches, 2) a lot of great players in the region to recruit, 3). The schools invest a lot of money in the football programs. He said that those 3 things are available at UT and that is what enticed him to take this job. He said he felt that UT would allow him to hire the best coaching staff in the country and he feels they have done that.First team meeting tonight, since the brief intro meeting.Off-season starts next week. NCAA rules prevent it this week.Spring practice starts the Tuesday after spring break. He thought the date was 3/23. Said they would have 5 weeks with practices Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The days in between they would watch film.On recruiting he said it was very important to hire coaches that have recruited this stare. He said that the high school coaches in the state are great and have a lot more influence over the kids decisions and it is important to have relationships with the coaches in the state. Someone asked about balancing recruiting in Texas vs out of state. He said, Texas will be the focus, but UT has the brand to go out of state to pick up someone like Bijan Robinson. Thus they will look to pick up some kids out of state also. However they need to really make Texas a priority.He said he’s a fan of BBQ, but hasn’t had a chance to try the local establishments. Message to letterman. He wants the to connect with current program. The door is always open. He wants current players to connect to the rich history of the program. Transfer portal has created free agency in college football. They will look to plug some gaps with the portal. However doesn’t want to make a living in the portal.
  2. On the Zoom with coach Sark now. Says he plans to finish the staff and have everyone announced by the end of the week. First meeting with the team is tonight. Next week begins off-season conditioning.
  3. #AllGasSomeBrakes?
  4. So we good to get all excited only to have our hearts broken again tomorrow?
  5. Mystery coach is still employed.
  6. Sorta seems like Pruitt is out, then it's between Pruitt to Alabama and Golding to Texas, or Pruitt to Texas. I'd bet the former.
  7. Fuck it. We're bringing Mike Hankwitz out of retirement.
  8. Rap game Larry and the squid notably silent as well.
  9. Something about Rudy Tomjanovich ? and Nahlin jumping in with some shit about a Mexican restaurant. Basically nonsense but they’re letting the other posters speculate he’s ours.
  10. Because all gas and no brakes? Can’t stop won’t stop? In other news, Gerry hinting we getting LJ.
  11. So they flew Golding through Starkville to throw us off the scent. Smrt.
  12. Listened to the podcast. Thanks guys. But hate to break it to y’all, Immamac and RGB don’t know shit about the DC and may or may not lie to us.
  13. Give me cliffs of the transcript and I’ll read them.
  14. Checked the urban thread (what a bitch that was), and it does appear to be one of the planes tracked during the urban saga. Could be Arnett - or an Arnett Lupoi co-DC situation.
  15. I actually think it may be a university affiliated bird but waiting for someone with better knowledge to confirm.
  16. @derpyhorndog is this the same plane you were tracking with the Urban stuff?
  17. IT also confirming Highes is in as Director of Player Personnel.
  18. TFB has a Lanning non-offer update if anyone has it. Carrington seems well-liked and appears to have done a good job. I’m for keeping him, but wasn’t there some weird “opting out” tweet he sent around the time the Herman firing rumors were peaking?
  19. Part of the trilateral commission.
  20. Part of the trilateral commission.
  21. Yes, because they reduced his salary from around 8 mil to around 5. Maths.
  22. Maybe he reconsiders now that jawja ain’t happenin.
  23. I dunno. I could think of a million or so reasons.
