  1. It wouldn't take a hail mary. It has been done and been documented in the news in the past. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/2018/01/25/ut-declined-to-sanction-professor-who-pleaded-guilty-to-violent-felony/10111458007/ .
  2. As a fromer UT employee I will say state jobs are different, probably because the ability of anyone to do an open records request. I've seen people no call/no show to work for weeks and face no discipline at all. They make sure all the i's are dotted and t's are crossed before even thinking about any kind of corrective action up to and including termination. I don't know any of the facts here, as do most of us, but even if it is swifter than usual for a state job, they will still take their time, get their evidence, and make sure everything is clean cut before making any decision to terminate.
  3. Mike Leach in the hospital in critical condition, Chris Beard gets arrested. Did someone at Tech plant devices in their former coaches and hit the self destruct button last night?
  4. Maybe, but par for the course at Texas right now I'm afraid. We have to learn how to close out games in multiple sports. I feel better about basketball figuring out a way through the season to do that though.
  5. I'd like to see more team basketball out of us in that last five minutes. We aren't gonna win them all but we can't let Carr keep running the ball into 3 guys and getting either blocked or turning it over.
  6. Welp. We reverted to hero ball in offense instead of moving it around and couldn't get any good shots. That and we'll Marcus Carr was just not good in this game.
  7. The entire poll lost a first place vote if you add them up compared to last week. Either that or someone gave someone outside the top 25 a first place vote. Edit: Actually it looks like there might be a voter only voting every other week? It alternates between 31 and 32 first place votes every other week so far.
  8. Maybe they meant when we were also ranked top 10?
  9. Lol at bringing down the goal posts for a win over a 6-5 team.
  10. Well all we had to do was not blow a double digit lead to either Tech or Oklahoma State, both who don't look all that great.
  11. Darren Sproles would like a word.
  12. Time to 3 and out our way to a 41-31 final
  13. Comeback is on.
  14. I was as mad about the offense on Saturday as anyone else but I can't imagine throwing freshman after freshman out there and hoping it looks better is the answer. We need to develop a QB room that the freshman have a year or two to learn the offense and have more control over it. It's clear Ewers doesn't have the Authority yet to audible and it looks like on most plays he has 1 maybe 2 reads he is allowed to make. He wasn't great throwing the ball Saturday but we also aren't calling plays that allow him to gain any confidence. It's a run play or a deep ball on almost every play. Ewers has a great effortless release. Maybe this is who he is or maybe he still has a lot of room to develop. I think we gotta give him some time to develop. Now he knows what a college season takes. Let's see where he goes from here. I don't think we will see any more immediate success by throwing another freshman quarterback in and not giving anybody a chance to develop and improve.
  15. We did and it was wide open and Ewers threw it to someone else.
  16. I would rather be back in the freeze with no electricity than watch Texas right now. At the least the freeze at hope for better times.
  17. Middle fingers must be Southlake grads
  18. This is what happens when you count on a drunk from california and a rich kid from southlake. Give me some junkyard dogs that give a shit.
  19. This might be the worst game in college football history. From both teams to the refs...it's a Benny Hill skit
  20. Put in Card. Ewers is a disaster
  21. I'm actually good at my job and I don't get paid as much as these refs or Sark.
  22. Relax Nancy. It's the first game of the season. I was just kidding. I thought the play on the ole Mack Brown quote woulda communicated that but I guess I need to put (parody) next to it from now on.
  23. 2nd halfs are a pandemic in America
