  1. UT would have beaten LSU in Baton Rouge this year.
  2. Think about Sparty / Michigan today. Mel Tucker (Michigan State) would bolt for UT from East Lansing so fast if the $ was right. He left CU for greener pastures without a second thought. He's a good coach, and Michigan State noticed that in the 2019 season. Today, he willed a shit MSU team to beat Michigan at The Big House. He's a motivator, very competitive, and all about the $$$. Food for thought...
  3. We had our 1990's. We had shit coaches. But, you know what? One coach and his staff turned those losing-record, under-coached dumbshits into national champions. Don't give up while you still have the talent. One head coach away, and you'll be happy you fired Herman.
  4. If Cult Aggy can poach Jimbo from FSU, certianly UT can do better RE: poaching. You're the flagship school of The State of Texas, FFS.
  5. No Blueblood is going to go after PJ Fleck. (Including Nebraska when they get their asses handed to them by the B1G/)
  6. I like Bulleit, but I like Maker's Mark just a little more.
  7. I'm shithoused (Grey Goose). I'm not trying to troll, either. I'm surprised that BoB has no votes. Good game today. No ill will. I'm not going to argue with a +3508 poster about what your fanbase thinks about Harsin. that would be stupid. I thought you all were glad when he was gone. Obviously, I was wrong.
  8. You're more "in the know" than me. *further
  9. I read Shaggy during Harsin's time. Correct me if I'm wrong (because you're the UT fan, you're the inside guy, and I'm posting from an OUTSIDER'S perspective.) It did appear to me that the consensus was "get this inept fuckstick out of here. He's losing games for us."
  10. Deleted. See post below. "Quote fail"
  11. I haven't been paying attention to The Texans, I'll admit, but I do know he's been able to salvage the train wreck that was Penn St. in the past.
  12. At this point, "likable" is a luxury. (no offense intended.) Better than that piece of shit that's running the program now.
  13. Surprised to see that Bill O'Brien has no votes at this point. Plenty of outstanding College Football coaches have fallen flat on their faces in the NFL (see Pete Carroll), returned to the College Game, and succeeded. I'd want Eric Bieniemy first, which I've clarified IS possible, but Bill O'Brien was no slouch at Penn St- that's why the Texans nabbed him. There's really no reson to think he'd fail y'all. I DO NOT think you guys are over-reacting by wanting Herman gone. I'd want the same. Harsin? You guys hated him when he was in Austin! Anyway, good game today. Took about ten years off my life expectancy.
  14. That is of no consequence to UT. Colorado has no fans that are comparable to UT / OU's. I live in Boulder. The home games are like a concert, a party. I've lived here 13 years, and I've never met a CU fan comparable to a Nebraska, OU, UT, or Alabama fan in regards to intensity. Broncos fans... plenty of 'em. No one is as passionate about CU football as our die-hards. UT could get Bieniemy. $$$ could be comparable to NFL.
  15. That was one of the BEST onsides kick executions I've ever seen. It spun out of Bowman's hands... perfectly- after the 2nd / 3rd bounce. You don't get a better onsides kick than that. Congrats to Cameron Dicker.
  16. On the Boulware hire: I've been happy with our RB production. I've been happy with our KO return coverage and punt return coverage schemes and execution. I've been happy with our FG unit's level of play. I've been disappointed with our KO return blocking scheme and punt return blocking since 2013.
  17. Texas won't be mediocre for long. I'm shocked at this decade. Urban Meyer is not acceptable at UT with the way he left tOSU. He may be acceptable at USC, but half of your power base would rather eat a bag of dicks before hiring that guy. Look somewhere else, and maybe following OU's example (the other BIG XII blue blood) in their hiring of Stoops and Riley might be the best decision. We have a very savvy AD, there's no reason UT can't get back up where it wants to be, and fast. One hire away, and no one is going to green light the hiring of Urban Meyer, so choose wisely, and you've got the talent there and a built-in recruiting base of top-tier high school kids who only ask "why should I NOT go to UT?", like Adrian Peterson back in 2003. Your high school kids grow up Longhorn fans, the talent can be there for your "Matt Rhule" hire.
  18. We went from Gary Gibbs (no charisma / lifetime DC) to Howard Schnellenberger (got worse), to John Blake (rock bottom). Our athletic director was new, and took a good look at Bob Stoops, who was recommended by a network of people. When Stoops essentially quit on the job in the 2014 season, he went to Mike Leach. Leach recommended Lincoln Riley. Stoops, for all intents and purposes, handed the head coaching job over to Lincoln Riley before officially doing so. I was happy about the decision when the news broke. OU's trajectory from 2010-2014 was going down as each season progressed, with the exception of 2013, when Oklahoma State was the better team and Gundy shit the bed in Stillwater vs. OU and 'Bama didn't care about the 2013 season's Sugar Bowl. I've read the responses to my comments, and I definitely would like to reply that my posts were in no way meant to "show pity", that I do think Herman will be fired, but I didn't say it was going to be this year. I want to emphasise that I do think its the "powers that be" at UT that will keep a snake like Meyer from ever coaching at UT, and that I got the hell out of Oklahoma for Boulder, CO twelve years ago. I grew up in Tulsa (suburb) and moved back to OK when I graduated from college (which is why I chose Boulder- the opposite of Tulsa.) My advice would be: use that network you guys have, which includes Mack Brown. Do what OU did with both Stoops and Riley when choosing your head coach. I agree with youdunnf'dup about the talent there now. Not having Collin Johnson out there for Ehlinger is a bad, bad loss to injury. It seems that he's a game changer while out there with Duvernay. From an outsider's perspective, Devin Duvernay is getting blanketed due to Johnson's absence (yet, Duvernay's still making plays.) Remember, Bob Stoops came in to a program loaded with talent and a complete idiot as their coach (Blake) and turned the OL and DL into National Champions with his choices in position coaches and attitude. If you agree with me that UT would never agree to hire Urban Meyer, and you don't want Wittingham, you next coach is probably going to be a guy you might have to look up on the internet, and that'll likely end up being a good thing for y'all. On the "blue bloods" thing, holy shit, you'd have to throw Miami in there with their flash-in-the-pan stuff if you're going to lump Clemson in. I will always hold there are eight until another one gets enough clout. Notre Dame, USC, Michigan, tOSU, Oklahoma, Texas, Nebraska, and Alabama. As far as "who gives a shit about being a blue blood?" Damn, y'all. Its very important. The comparisons to Nebraska and their almost 20-year absence aren't really useful or relevant to the conversation. Texas is the flagship football program in the State of Texas. Texas is football. Your divided "powers that be" are a problem when re-ascending towards being a national title contender at the end of each season, but they were (for all practical purposes) the same people who hired Mack Brown. Texas is not Nebraska. ( I don't know WTF is going on over there, and I probably don't want to know.) I honestly thought Tom Herman would be the next great coach at Texas, though, so everything with a grain of salt. FUKM
