Probably Friday, August 31 late at night. Then they can quietly announce the committee cleared Urban of all wrongdoing and hope the full day of games on September 1 gives college football fans other stuff to talk about.Doubt it will take that long and they're going to get a shitstorm from the shports media whether they announce it live on ESPN and Fox News or try to bury it in a press release about Meyer rescuing some kittens from rape by pitbull. Oddly enough Ohio State seems to have motivations other than "what will make the news media and fans of other CFB programs happy" which I don't really get. I watch 2 or 3 of their games a year on TV. I demand satisfaction.

Dammit. So I gave Charles Darnay a hard time, thinking you were doing something a Hank Scorpio bit, but it turns out you're just stupid?

I'm from Houston and the preponderance of Aggies in and around the city, and their tendency to Aggie-ize everything they come into contact with, makes me wish I'd grown up in Dallas

Georgia cost us the MNC in 1983. We lost 10-9 in the Cotton Bowl. Later that night, the only team ranked ahead of us lost as well. I don't want to talk about it.
nah you're making that up, that never happened

Not to go off on you like a you're a fucking Korean convenience store clerk, but I mean, at one point Robinson was actually committed to Texas at one point. Which I realize only makes it worse.
i don't believe I ever believed in his commitment, maybe I had gone full cynic by then
-
Obviously making the Sugar Bowl would be awesome because it would finally be evidence we're going in the right direction. But I would especially like to play Georgia, just because we never play them. We had a home and home in the 50s according to Winsipedia, a couple of bowl games. Only played once in the last 60 years or so.

i think we should all agree it fucking sucks we never really had shot at a guy like Robinson
-
I actually think they'll keep it amazingly close against Clemson. Something like 38-34. That will be the high point of the season but they won't know it at the time

Give me a fucking break. 1st, sock fucked up by using private vs a public sector organization as a comparison - fail. Urbs is a State employee, likely the highest paid one. Fanaticism dictates moral corruption, which a Public employee should be held responsible for. Not firing the pos in 2015 is the fireable offense. Do not try and tell me that his boss did not let him fire the pos, Urban decided to keep him for 3 years and only fire him when he could not keep the news quiet. This after 9 years of abusive behavior to his wife. Go fuck yourself!
I think it's pretty clear that any of the information we have access to that would in any way defend Meyer is a bunch of fucking made-up bullshit concocted by people with a vested interest in something something whereas all the information we believe about how guilty Smith and Meyer are is beyond reproach. I get sick of having to explain that to people and telling them to fuck off (and to go read Deadspin) when they dont immediately agree.

First, I hope Urbie gets canned, from both moralistic and Longhorn-centric points of view.
What I’m about to say is in no way intended to be a defense of either osu or Meyer, but rather is intended to introduce a different perspective into the discussion. We’ve spent a lot of the last 30 pages trying to one-up each other in our condemnation of domestic violence. Reminds me of the Rapelor thread—we just had to prove that we loathed rape and rape enablers more than the last poster did. Gimmie that torch and pitchfork.
Before we get our hopes up too high that Urbie’s coached his last game at osu, let’s take the facts of the osu situation out of the CFB arena and put them in the real world—say, in the business world. Let’s say that Urbie owns and manages a first-class CPA firm with a Fortune 500 company or two as clients. Let’s further say that he has a rising star CPA working for him who specializes in leveraged buyouts and picking over the bones of the acquired firm, starting with looting the employees’ pension fund. Reprehensible? Oh, yeah.
If the rising-star CPA actually beats his wife (which may be a question of fact not yet completely answered with any degree of certainty at osu) and if the police “investigate” and end up filing no charges, what do you think the chances are that Urbie has even one ounce of pressure to fire the guy? The incident did not involve the guy's work or his workplace; it would be considered completely a part of his private life. If no arrests or indictments arise therefrom, does anyone actually believe that the guy’s job would be in jeopardy—let alone Urbie’s?
Let’s further assume that Urbie’s incorporated, with a board of directors he answers to. What do you think the chances are that either Urbie or any member of the board would be even slightly motivated to fire a proven producer for a non-work related incident?
There’s a real world out there, folks. It ain’t always pretty and it ain’t always fair. Now feel free to get up on your moral high-horse and fire away; I’ll even hand you the torches and pitchforks. But, as much as I'd like to see it, Urbie ain't going anywhere.
God, you JUST DON'T GET IT. We were all raised to look down our noses at OU and Texas A&M for cheating. Then in the 80s it was everyone else, not just those two reprobate programs, although they exceeded expectations with their shenanigans in 1988 and 1989. We were pretty arrogant to begin with, and then we got the chance to really signal our virtue on message boards when Penn State and Baylor came along. That felt real good, because there was no limit to how over-the-top we could get in prescribing punishments, like "shut the entire University down!" and how good it felt by comparison since our University never did anything wrong ever and when it did always did the correct thing in reaction to its wrongdoing immediately.
Now we've kind of scorched off our taste buds so everything tastes the same. Zach Smith is accused of abusing his wife. That tastes like Peachy Paterno to me, fucking KILL THEM ALL AND LET GOD SORT THEM OUT. Your call to fire Urban for not firing an assistant in spite of all the circumstantial evidence us sportses fans got access to doesn't go nearly too far enough, although I commend you for at least trying to overreact.
I am hoping we can get Ohio State kicked out of the AAU, maybe the continental United States. Someone's guilty of something over there, I can see it from here.

Isn't there some gray area between what was shown in the pics and going full on smokin Joe Mixon on someone?
there's gray area when I'm involved, but for everyone else it's black and white

The B1G, how..? is the ACC in peril of being absorbed by the B1G..?
owning, like scoreboard? Penn State beat them in the Orange Bowl towards the end of Bobby Bowden's long descent, otherwise they've pretty much trounced the noteworthy Big Ten programs head to head
-
We've never played them. I would have to think that with LSU-Michigan on the schedule in the upcoming years, Texas-Florida State would have to be one of best matchups that's never taken place

they mostly own the part of the Big Ten that's worth owning

I'm going to go "Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino" here, but changing uniforms every game is weak sauce for candyass programs with no tradition or history. USC is going to go out every week and look like USC. Because they're USC. Just like we will look like Texas, because we are The University of Texas.
our ranks shrink every year unfortunately, even programs like Notre Dame, Michigan, and Ohio State have worn "who the fuck is that?" uniforms
frankly I think OU's white helmets belong in that category too

wait, that was OU a few years later, wasn't it, I'm thinking of Oh... My.. Garsh!!! Girl

All I can tell you is that the Sept. 2011 game in which Texas lost to UCLA in Austin was quite loud on account of my screams of anguish from the upper deck.
and yet, it was so quiet in the fourth that all of Austin could hear some 20-yr old cutie in the stands exclaiming "FUCK!" after another turnover

if you are comparing yourself to A&M you have already lost

I doubt Michigan belongs in the Top 7, but in their defense, they only started playing night games about four years ago. Their night crowds are pretty rowdy.

Grow up. If you knew anything, you'd be doing something with it more valuable than trying to play the big shot on a Texas message board.
Its happening (stadium renovations)

Comparing seating capacity is like comparing undergraduate enrollment. A&M has more students than us. Fine. Who fucking cares? We have a new medical school and the US Army Futures Command along with multiple best-of-the-best colleges (business, engineering, etc). We don't have the same mission as Texas A&M. We never did. They've gone from turning out dudes who stick their arms up cow vaginas to the Arizona State of the SEC, just a big mostly pointless four-year "university" that anyone with a pulse can get into.
FUCK THEM. They are irrelevant to what we're doing whether it's varsity athletics, intramural Quidditch, or academics.
