    Yeah, Orange to Beaumont isn’t so bad. We’d drive in to Beaumont for dinner sometimes when I was working in Orange.

    I meant the entire length of Texas from Orange/Beamount to El Paso.

    He obviously shouldn’t be fired unless you are hiring Kirby. Let’s also remember Saban(Alabama) owns Kirby but he still managed to win championships. After the Ohio St game it was obvious to me this team is a year away. They just don’t play with enough confidence. But Sark has to fix his coaching staff and how they prepare for games. 

    I agree but Saban is a legend. He owned pretty much every coach in his tenure. Kirby is a really good coach but nowhere near Saban. Marcus Freeman at ND had zero issues against the same Georgia team that embarrassed Sark last year. ND dominated Georgia in the playoffs. While Sark and company tried their hardest to blow the Arizona State game.

    Another knock on Sark. He turtles when it matters way too often and has a hard time putting teams away. Just like Tom 'Turtle' Herman.

    We're a much better team at home.

    And I'm not sure aggy is any better than Vandy.  I do think we can win that game.

    aggy knows how to move Reed around. Their WRs have speed and can make people miss in the open field. Not a good recipe for this secondary. 

    Once Vandy figured out Texas' defense, it was like a knife through butter. They almost had a aggy/SC comeback (24pts vs 27) in one single quarter. Texas is lucky that onside kick wasn't recovered or Vandy easily scores to win and that season would have been over then and tonight's game wouldn't mean anything for Texas in terms of playoff aspirations.

    That's what I thought after the Florida loss, but this isn't an OC issue. Sark isn't a bad  coach, he's just not good enough for Texas.

    His head coaching tenure has been pretty bad outside of 2 years when he had stacked talent.

    since when has sark had an answer for anything other than fielding a team with more sheer talent? and the only legit good team that worked against was bama in 23

    Yep, same as I said earlier. Sark's record against good teams is downright putrid. And even in 2023, with how the season played out, Bama probably wasn't better than Texas. Still, a great win on the road in Bama against Saban. but outside of that, he gets taken to school against any other good team.

    Sark isn't going to "learn" anything.  He is who he is and he's substandard

    Yep. No coach at that age is ever going to change. Hell, people don't change at life in general at that age. They are who they are, you have to take it or leave it.

    Sark would be ok for some mid-tier school like TCU or the likes. If you want national championships, he's not even close to your guy.

    Sark would make a good offensive coordinator 

     

    just not here.  
     

    shoulda never been hc

    I have my doubts about that. He tries to get cute way too often, to show off how smart he is instead of just attacking the weaknesses. He has very little feel for how the game is unfolding. Unless he goes to a situation like he was in Bama (before he fucked that off) but that was just them out talenting everyone every week. That isn't going to happen anymore.

    "This has been one of Georgia's best games."

    Sark will never defeat Kirby, he's completely out of his league.

    Reminds me of Kirby vs Saban. Nothing Kirby did was right vs Saban although he finally got through that one game and it was at the biggest stage.

    We are at a disadvantage against any of the top tier teams, right out of the gate.
