    Temporarily while I figure out how to self host all embeds. It was causing issues related to recruiting threads.

    heh - buddy of mine owned Rusty Mule.

    As I understand it's the same owner, rusty mule was run by a scoundrel who is now being prosecuted?

    is it in the middle of a trailer park, or is that some kind of RV storage lot? 

    It was an RV park for a minute between bars, there's 50A electric run all over the place so it's well lit and fans galore even outside. Also lots of AC power for food trucks.

    Just a few years ago these same people were yelling Seven Win Steve and talking about how he would never win here and didn't develop players at his previous stops as a head coach. Now all the sudden Tyrone Swoopes would've been 14-0 with this team, and that same Seven Win Steve is the greatest developer of talent in the country. Lol. Never quit Surly.

    Sark has done an exceptional job at letting people around him within the program and in his network help him. I think when he takes over and does too much, that's when the wheels start to come off now. 

    Quinn was a lot of things, but clutch wasn't really one of them. 

    Sam legitimately took over a game against the future national championship LSU team to the degree that the ogre not only acknowledged it but praised Sam.

    Instead of paying out of pocket to have the tap lines redone, they let the distributor do it in exchange for putting whatever the distributor wanted on tap. In the meantime, the first impression the bar gets online and in person is weak. In a competitive space, that seems penny wise and pound foolish. Feels like a bad area to cheap out on when your trade is selling, checks notes, beer.

    I mean it's not even technically open yet, but yeah. 

  5. Yeah they just redid all the tap lines and stuff. The company that came and did that had a bunch of beers that came with the job and that's what it was. The dude knows beer, like I said he was at independence brewing for a while.

    You think the 12th Man Foundation would support Surly?

    Bold concept.

    I haven't made a dime off of any of the NIL stuff we have done. It's making me think I'm the sucker lol

  8. There's a new place that is opening on Saturday out west of town. I went and checked it out last night as a soft open and it's great, good cocktails and a great setup with tons of outside fans and seating plus a great stage and sound system. It's being run by the old manager of Independence Brewing's operation and the food was fantastic from tru bar-b-que. He makes the tortillas fresh pressed for the tacos and they are insane.

  9. It's their fault not mine - it blocks people's IP addresses from embedding because it thinks they are bots. if you click the image it'll just ask you to verify on cloudflare and work, but never on the embed side. It's actually super lame and another reason I want to get away from embeds and just download the yarn and serve it from our servers...

    Hahah, did you not notice in the last page Sam was discussed and that Vince, Colt, Major and Simms have been steady components of this thread.

    This is primarily a University of Texas forum and this is the Texas Football sub. Quinn is going to continue to be compared to how other Texas QBs performed in the NFL, how he performed compared to Manning and other aspects of former Texas QBs. If you want discussion content that is purely Quinn's performance while in the NFL at Miami with no historical Texas QB references, you might want to TRY Here

    Yes, we've had talent.  Lots of it.  We had the 3rd most players drafted in 2024, and 2nd in 2025.  Tops overall for those two years.  The point is, we're not the only team with elite talent.  Two of them knocked us out of the playoffs.  (We should also note that Brooks missed the final 4 games of his career.)

    I don't really understand why so many of you struggle with shades of grey.  It's quite astonishing. 

    Texas is in a different category of talent.

    What amazes me is that a completely mentally incapacitated Joe Biden as President with a Democratic controlled Congress right now would be infinitely better for this country than what we have. It’s an amazing indictment on the bribery, incompetence, and lying that wafts thru the White House currently. 

    But it would still be broken and there would be a lot fucked up. Mainly because the Democrats who are actually in congress are all shithead empty suits, they just don't happen to suck super bad. Save for a few.

    Dude-

    Most people are thankful for Quinn because we remember what we had for the last decade or so(besides Sam). No one thinks Quinn did anything by himself, but we just ran the SEC with two 190lb, 3rd down backs, Juan Davis playing significant minutes, and one good wide receiver(Bond was hurt all year).Our roster isn't the monster you think it is. If you don't think so look at our roster vs Ohio State's. We ran back the same level of success after losing Worthy, Mitchell, Sanders, Brooks, Jones, Baxter, Whitt, Sweat, Murphy, Ford, and Williams.....AND transitioning to the SEC. Stability at quarterback has something to do with that.

    Nah dude. This ain't it. Fucking drafted 12. That's more than 50% of the starters. 

    Juan would have started nearly everywhere fucking else too, the fuck is this sideswipe about?

    Right. I think the argument made was that by concealing it screwed actual D's with a chance (and Kamala specifically) and gave us the felon.

    From the article:

    I think we all agree that the first 100+ days has been an unmitigated series of disasters and that Biden's barely awake corpse would have done better, but it's more about how the actions-- and the stench of a coverup/hoodwinking-- was a massive political error.

    I think a lot of us knew there was more to the story and what met the eyes and it's interesting that now post-mortem analysis and reporting is coming out and the tea is gonna be spilled on some of this, potentially.

    I said this before the election and immediately following. All of the potential good that Joe Biden did is completely nullified by Donald Trump being reelected (both literally and figuratively) and the fact is that his refusal to serve as a one term president from the outset will perhaps make him the worst president in history, not because of policy, but because he basically gifted the white house to a tyrannical king dictator piece of shit instead of saving America from the brink of collapse and turning a new leaf and defeating the comoletely fucking stupid MAGA movement that has now become the ruling power. 

    It doesn't matter how beautiful your home and its furnishings are if you light it on fire and cancel your insurance right before. 

    Incredulity is a fucking idiot.

    I’m telling you, we don’t do mediocre well at QB. Take Jake Majors, or Jerrin Thompson, or Gbenda. Adequate college players. Drafted late or not at all. Could make an NFL roster, or maybe not. We don’t fight about them.

    But Ewers is a QB, and we put those into two categories: Legends, and absolute fucking garbage who we will piss on for eternity. The legends are easy (VY, Colt) as are the others (Gilbert, Swoopes).

    The ones in the middle are where the fights happen. Chris Simms, Sam Ehlinger, Quinn Ewers.

    I won't stand for the Sam Ehlinger blasphemy. Sam was universally loved except for some brain broken idiots who just hate him for no reason. He was an OU CCG game away from making the CFP in 2018 and there's a real chance they win the whole thing if they go. They absolutely fucking murdered Georgia.

    I agree with you but cannot abide this Sam Ehlinger erasure. 

    Although Sam's tenure more or less proves your point. As soon as we even got a decent QB like Sam, we started winning games again. Despite having a mental midget for a coach. 

    Sam actually played for a dogshit team with a dogshit coach and still came out with the "decent" reviews because he way overperformed and is still on a roster now (Denver). He doesn't suck and has outlasted a lot of other people who were drafted and are just not on rosters.

    All of the woke issues were distractions, they are red meat to the rabid MAGA base but in terms of national elections they were running out the clock, these are losing issues in the long run, don't get me wrong the "Wokies" need to shut up because they are radioactive, their opinions burn your brain with how repellent they are and at the same time how weak they are (the closest example I can think of is insulting the majority X while begging, whining, and pleading for somebody else to do "something", histeria cubed)

    The "weird" strategy is stupid as well

     

    Woke issues are largely irrelevant to the vast majority of Americans. It's also a small part of policy from Dems. The Republican media machine is especially good at making things a much much much bigger deal than they are in reality even if they are negative. The Democrats largely make arguments based on merit and get distracted by  trying to address things that are largely irrelevant to governing etc.
