  1. Cowboys vs Raiders always has the greatest possibility to resemble a cartel turf war. I'm sure some more quality footage will be dropping soon.
  2. Which is why coaching in college football is really pretty shitty outside of a handful of guys. If all a coach brings to a table is a single scheme that he can only be successful with when it has "his" handpicked guys. Is said coach really worth a shit? I would hope a Defensive Coordinator at one of the biggest programs in college football has the ability to coach players and run schemes in multiple lineups. I know in my average career I played in a 4-4, 4-3, 3-4, 4-2-5. PK is a liability at this point and is just being another block head college coach that refuses to change and it should cost him his job.
  3. Sounds like you'd be better off as a fan of the University on the other side of the Red River. They excel in that arena.
  4. No... But if your stance is really "Texas can only win if we have a heavy talent advantage over all of our opponents" then this program truly is dog shit wrapped in cat shit and absolutely wastes its money on paying coaches millions that really are just figure heads and not coaches. The absolute sad part is this program wouldn't even recruit a Freddie Steinmark type of player. Texas has lost its soul and identity and will continue to wander the desert until the program decides to come together and take pride in being Longhorns. Right now there is a roster with a lot of guys that seem like they don't even want to be out there playing football, let alone happy being Longhorns. The 2021 Longhorns have enough talent to be 7-3 right now. You don't go up by double digits on ranked teams 3 weeks in a row and say "there's not enough talent".
  5. I don't disagree with you there at all. The HUNH Spread has destroyed defensive talent in Texas and has made teams softer overall. To address your first point though, 2008 Alabama wins 12 games after a 7-6 season in 2007. You can't say that team was loaded up with star rankings. Brody Croyle, Greg McElroy, and AJ McCarron are absolutely nothing special. However they played within their abilities and limited mistakes. Saban collected defensive players like it was a hobby and has put out some of the best defensive performances in college football history the last 13 years. It's like Coaches get to Texas and go full retard. The recipe is build the trenches, play salty defense, and establish a running game and you will win more often than not. Look at Baylor this year, they get after the QB on defense and establish the run on offense. Very simple stuff.
  6. Why can't an AD grow some balls and tell them to "get fucked, I'm running this athletic department my way."
  7. Why are Texas fans so overwhelmingly enamored with players? The constant around here is "gotta have more talent" yet the teams Texas consistently loses to are teams with less talent. Chasing stars is what has lead this program down the shitter in my opinion. These highly rated players are very commonly "me first" guys with rare exceptions such as a Tebow, RoJo, VY, etc. The way to keep this type of attitude in check is to have a winning culture (i.e. Alabama) the culture Saban has in place weeds these type of guys out very quickly. Trying to rebuild a winning culture around me first guys is a recipe for disaster as we have seen the last 11 years now. Texas needs to get its soul back. It's time to start getting guys that have potential, love this University, and don't shy away from hard work. Go find the RoJo's, Studdard's, McMichael's and surpass the Stearns, Moore's, Lampkin's. And for y'all that think hoarding talent is the only way, the fucking Naval Academy has more wins (85) running the goddamn triple option wishbone than Texas does since 2010.
  8. Maybe the strategy is to fall behind in the first half in hopes for the opposite in the 2nd half?
  9. So the defense is responding well to the motherfuckering.
  10. Are you kidding? Poona Ford and D'onta Foreman would set records vs this team. Swoopes would actually look good.
  11. If he's serious about the NFL he should portal. This team doesn't deserve him.
  12. You were saying? This team is beyond trash.
  13. Ok, second only to 1997. Sorry....
  14. If this team goes 4-8 is Sark one and done lol. This is the worst I've seen Texas in my lifetime (33 years)
  15. His scheme is dog shit. And he seems like another block head college coach that will just run what he wants to run regardless of the personnel he has. The fact that he keeps running a two high safety look on obvious running downs is a fire-able offense at this point. He's not putting the players in the best position to be successful.
  16. The year before (2004) was even more impressive.
  17. This team has finally broke me. I have no interest on the rest of the season. I haven't missed watching a single game from 2004 to now, but I've honestly finally had enough. If the players are gonna quit I guess I'll go ahead and do the same. This program is on par with Nebraska and is rotten from the inside out. The fact that walkons are starting on defense and that pathetic unit playing offensive line is what is trotted out on Saturdays shows how far gone this once great program has fallen. The slogan "The pride and winning tradition of the University of Texas will not be entrusted to the weak or the timid" needs to be removed from the football complex, because it's obvious that shit ain't true. Neg me, IDGAF won't be on Surly until the offseason.
  18. This is a team of mental midgets. No killers on this squad.
  19. Everybody on this offensive line is a gaping pussy.
  20. If the defense doesn't respond today we're in trouble for the rest of the season. C'mon boys, bow the fuck up. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
  21. How tackling should be done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NZbhgf33sg
  22. Well, whatever they're teaching it ain't working. I picked a random year (2007) on 247 recruit ranking. Texas (the state) had 5 Linebackers ranked in the top 25 of HS LB's. In the class of 2022 there are currently two...... Defensive talent coming out of Texas has fell off a cliff.
  23. We currently have the 109th ranked rush defense. As a lot of you have pointed out, stopping the run is all about getting hats to the ball and getting off of blocks early. I hate these damn coaches that just fall in love with window dressing. I'll never be convinced otherwise that if PK just threw out every defensive alignment outside of "Base, 3rd & Long, and Goal line" packages and just focused essentially 90% of the defensive practice on fundamentals such as proper tackling, angle of pursuit, and getting off of blocks. This defense would improve from 109th to at least some where in the 60's (which would've been good enough to win Saturday) Coaches in the modern era seem to lack awareness. It's all about forcing what they want to run vs what to run with what you have. Adjust and set up the guys you have to be successful, don't try and run a system that needs Georgia's players to be successful.
