  1. Thank you grammar police
  2. Could have been Sexton but I’m not sure about that. Whether it be shitty false reporting or someone is Sarks circle stabbing him in the back, I agree he needs to squash it quick.
  3. Yea I agree if he doesn’t fix the issues next season it’s a different conversation because then there’s a pattern developing. They did win those games albeit they weren’t good performances. Shows a lot about their character to not quit down by 17 in the 4th. They could have easily done that and we’ve seen that under other coaches we’ve had here. I do t know the answer to the sark play calling dilemma. You might be right. I think Flood has to go now though. No excuse for an oline at Texas to be this bad in this era of college football. Yea if he wants out I agree. I don’t think anyone expects him to build statues as you say for them. Doesn’t mean he hasn’t been invested in building this program. The evidence speaks for itself the previous 2 seasons.
  4. Nice hot take. Shows you’ve never been apart of a football locker room. Sark might be headed for the NFL and I think it’s a fair criticism to say he didn’t do enough to fix the oline issues in the offseason. I personally don’t understand how you can let that happen in the NIL/portal era. But to insinuate that his whole time here has just been a stepping stone or ploy to get him somewhere else is baseless speculation at best. Clearly you don’t remember the state of the program before he got here. He’s earned the right to fix the issues. To say it’s just a business to a coach like that doesn’t hold water. He’s put an incredible amount of time and effort into transforming the culture of the program. You don’t get that from just using the team as a stepping stone.
  5. I mean would you really want Meyer as the head coach at Texas? Some things are more important than winning. I know that’s not a popular opinion but that guy shouldn’t be allowed to be around kids again. Period.
  6. Very rarely. I understand the frustration with the offense though. Pretty inexcusable given the resources at this place.
  7. Not really. Arch has not been good but nowhere near the level of bad Gilbert was. Not to mention several blowout losses to inferior competition in 2010.
  8. Lol well you’re certainly a pro at it at this point.
  9. I see what you’re saying but I’d give up everything for Chris Simms level play right now.
  10. That’s such a tone deaf response. You understand that when the offense doesn’t pick up first downs that the defense is out there for the majority of the game and therefore leads to fatigue, mistakes, etc… Was the defense perfect… no. But they absolutely won the game for Texas today. And 2 niblett special teams returns. The defense can only stop them so many times.
  11. They definitely didn’t match floridas physicality on either side of the ball. Not saying they couldn’t have or it’s impossible to but they got whipped in that game. No doubt about it.
  12. This. We went blow for blow with Ohio state but to say Florida didn’t out physical us is ridiculous.
  13. Good luck to know the board is still full of complete morons.

    Culture

    They are just soft and have been for some time now. Sure there are a few exceptions every year but for the most part they play soft. They give up too quickly when they get down. They lack physicality. It's like when they get to Texas they feel like they've made it. You can say all day that culture isn't the problem and that it's the coaching but we are on coach 3 since mack and we keep getting the same results.
  15. Your'e right. They both did. Just the majority of posts I saw lately are about blaming the qb or head coach which is understandable but in reality you won't beat anyone giving up 300 on the ground.
  16. Doesn't matter who plays qb when you give up over 300 yards on the ground. You won't beat ANYONE doing that.
  17. Yep. It all starts at the administrative level. If fans keep accepting mediocrity then there's no reason to change. They made their money.
  18. This is all hilarious that everyone is making this about the offense when the defense literally gave up over 300 yards on the ground tonight. You will not beat ANYONE doing that. The offense was definitely horrible too but holy shit the defense was non existent. Especially in the 2nd half.
  19. They finally charged me for ou tickets and they still aren't showing up in the app.
  20. Btw the problem with those screens GDGD used to run was that firstly it was a predictable first down play on almost all of our opening drives, and secondly, I never understood throwing the ball 40 yards across the field to try to advance forward. Way to much risk involved. For those who say Davis was too conservative I just point there.
  21. I think Thompson will be the starter week 1 for sure but not so sure that's the case by the ou game. I hope he is because everything I'm seeing and hearing from the kid sounds great but Card has undeniable arm talent that could cost Thompson the job. That's the optimistic point of view at least. They could both end up being shit but I doubt it.
  22. Any insight on when TX/ou ticket requests are filled?
  23. It's not just dealing a little pot. He literally had a gang member on his team and Florida had multiple sexual assault allegations against their players. College kids everywhere drive drunk because they are stupid kids.
  24. The only 2 coaches in the programs history that have won national titles here didn't have one before we hired them so I'm not sure why that's your number one metric. I personally would like to have Matt Campbell and have been pushing for that for awhile.
  25. Do I seriously need to explain to you the difference between a college kid who makes mistakes and drives drunk is a completely different thing than having a team with over 31 arrests in 5 years and not for "boys being boys" kind of shenanigans. I mean he had Aaron Hernandez on his team. Then covered up domestic abuse from one of his coaches at his next stop. I'm not saying we didn't have a few problems here and there under Mack but comparing these 2 coaches morally is ridiculous.
