  1. It's not just that the playcalling is trash but the play designs never put anyone in conflict or threatens to cause confusion.
  2. Franklin will have to luck into an awesome playcaller or a dynamic QB to ever really threaten to be elite. Otherwise he's Mack Brown in the pre Vince and Colt years ie rarely ever beating someone he shouldn't.
  3. There was a double reverse flee flicker earlier in this game where 2 Penn St pass catchers were running side by side within 2 yards of each other. Meanwhile on the other side of the field Ryan Day is able to scheme up the most dangerous WR in all of college football into multiple plays where he is wide ass open catching the ball in full sprint. A decent QB and offensive coaching staff would have Penn St up at least 10 to 15 points with the defense they're fielding today.
  4. I dont know man. I mean what QB wouldn't want to play in that dynamic offense?
  5. Clever playcalling there to throw it 14 yards short of the 1st down marker. Ohio St would never see it coming.
  6. How can we even tell, they're running 5 yard stop routes every other play. They took a WR from Kent St in the portal who was supposedly better than that UNC WR who finally started playing a couple games ago.
  7. Penn St is a QB and a chance taking coach away from having a championship level team. One thing that we take for granted while playing in the Big 12 is how little risk aversion affects big games. Once Bob Stoops joined the conference, consistent success in high leverage conference games depended on how many chances your HC was willing to take. It was something that really hurt Mack early on against OU until he finally stopped playing scared. Coaches in the Big10 and SEC are more inclined to approach games like old school NFL coaches with a don't lose it mentality. James Franklin has already punted twice from mid field and his trash ass QB combined with 1980s playcalling had no chance of directing a successful 2 minute drill to end the half.
  8. Man I didn't realize how much Drew Allar sucks. He misses guys left and right.
  9. There's only one National Champion in that picture as well.
  10. It's a bit of revisionist history to look back in hindsight and claim this was an idiotic business decision on the part of Cumulus. Cumulus was conducting business as usual when they filed this lawsuit. They were wholly unaware that their entire business operating world had shifted beneath their feet. We can go back a few pages within this thread and see that the majority of posters believed the truly stupid participants in this battle were Dan and Jake. Gotta hand it to Dan and Jake, they slayed goliath. It's good to know people, notably a policy guru who formerly worked for the National Labor Relations board. I'm betting that in some ways Cumulus was correct in their claims. Dan and Jake probably were planning this for much longer than we think. They've been really tight with Bruenig for years.
  11. Yeah Jazz, Rock, Rap were all embraced off the top. Terms like jungle music were never uttered and black people dont needs laws like the crown act just to allow them to wear their hair the way he grows from their head.
  12. It's hard coded into American culture to reflexively view anything done by black people as something bad. Be it music (ie jazz, rock, rap), dress, hairstyle, or manner of speaking, if it's done by black people the initial default setting is to view it with derision as a function of American DNA. Paradoxically this taboo also causes intrigue and wonder as well.
  13. In all honesty, I've always been surprised Ty stayed as long as he did. Making shit money as a 50+ year old with a wife and kid at home didnt make much sense. But turns out he has a couple of bars and a Tshirt business on the side so he was just doing the Ticket stuff for the love of the game.
  14. Her literal quote about Obama was "why does he identify as black when his Dad was nowhere to be found?". That's just a shitty thing to say regardless of one's politics. But in a world where being an asshole is viewed as a virtue by some, I guess you can say, yeah, she was just embracing her heritage with that comment.
  15. But No CR, right? Steele was a anchor/Host. Kimes is an analyst. They have absolutely nothing to do with each other. Your comparison of the 2 is nonsensical.
  16. You're not paying attention. Tom Luginbil said they'd be 1-11 reputable media all over thought they wouldnt be shit. Theyre lack of depth will ultimately be their downfall but Deion is fucking coach regardless of the flash.
  17. Boom that's who i was thinking of. I thought it was Connor or Cole.
  18. Hmmm, I can only think of a handful of UT football players who majored in engineering over the last 20 years. Shit, UT athletes for that matter. I believe there's current freshman Olinemen majoring in engineering (cant remember who) and Bryan Pickeryl majored in some sort of engineering although i dont know how much his medical redshirt allowed that to be a possibility. Then there was Gabe Muoneke and Lamont Hill on the basketball team. Those are literally the only athletes in our 2 major sports who i can think of who majored in engineering over the last 25 to 30 years.
  19. I dont know how much this has been discussed wrt McKinley, but from the moment I heard that he wanted to major in Engineering (at first) and now computer science the difficulty of him actually getting into his preferred major at UT was a problem I've had lurking in the back of mind and it seemed weird that it wasnt being discussed. Say what you want, but he won't have anywhere near the problem getting into those departments at OU or A&M as he would have at UT and I cant help but wonder if this fact is playing a factor in his final decision.
  20. Yeah, I believe Baylor was Terry's first college job out of the high school ranks. He was the head coach for some small town high school in Texas and then took them to state. I dont remember where exactly. Richard Johnson Jr (Tre's Dad) only played at Baylor for 1 or 2 years though, so I'm not sure how big his father's alma mater aspect may play in Tre's recruitment.
  21. After the podcast with Matt Bruenig I came away feeling they were certain to come out on top in this whole imbroglio.
  22. Yep, Bobby's change in outlook is a lot of what I'm basing my optimism on. He's seen every Texas team up close and personal since the early 90s. So he's a good point of reference to gage this year's prospects on. Additionally, he's typically tempered in his prognostications and is usually anything but a sunshine pumper which is rare for a 995er. Before that list that @closetohumping put up there, Bobby was routinely saying he'd be happy with 9-3 for this season on their YouTube shows so I'm pleasantly surprised he's upped it to 10-2.
