  1. Sark has been very open about the fact good offers weren't exactly rolling in at that time, not even from lower level programs. To be fair even Saban didn't hire him as OC right away, he had to do the analyst thing first, but the very fact the goat believed in him at a time when literally nobody else did is what brought Sark to where he is today. It's not like Saban spent a great deal of time rehabbing and mentoring him, but sometimes all people need is a foot in the door and they take care of the rest. The fact Sark doesn't give himself more credit is due to the humbling effect of being publicly embarrassed at a high profile job. I remember the Shag roasting the shit out of him when the drunken athletic banquet video went viral, yet here we are years later. Life is strange sometimes, but that's what makes it interesting.
  2. I'm seeing far less giant SEC stickers alongside aggy regalia on cars and trucks these days. Pretty sure in the Rumlin days every piece of aggy gear he wore for pressers and coaches on the recruiting trail had the SEC logo displayed. Contrast that with Sark's plain hoody that has a giant "TEXAS", small Nike swoosh and the BigXII logo on the sleeve where it isn't visible on tv.[emoji23]
  3. I also doubt Saban was thinking about retirement more than 3 years ago now, but I have seen some Gump fans put Sark on their wish shortlist for when the inevitable happens. The bad news for them is we don't have head corches poached...and if that does happen it will be with the blessing of the fanbase and AD.
  4. Jerrick Gibson and Colin Simmons really playing in both the UA and Polynesian games? Anyway, it's awesome to see so many of our commits in all these high school all star games.
  5. Didn't think this needed a new thread, but during this reflective time of year it's time to remember we lost the greatest aggy nemesis of all before this season
  6. Gundy has zero love for aggy. This could be gloriously ugly, and I'm here for it.
  7. That may be one of the most impressive things I've ever seen. Little dude crossed an entire river barely getting wet. [emoji122][emoji122]
  8. Ahh true. In my defense I'm off work until the 3rd of the new year and trying to maintain a constant BAC until then.
  9. Feels like we've had a mini off season, but.. Only 4 days until Longhorn football again boys and girls. And this time it's not a meaningless bowl that's fun for the guys who didn't play much during the season. All hands on deck, full sail[emoji869]
  10. As absurd as this sounds, if we keep having success and Saban eventually retires...I could see Sark keeping the coach rehab program going. He's very open and honest about Saban believing in him changing the course of his life. He already has a decent tree going, two position coaches going on to coordinator and HC jobs, and I have a feeling we lose a couple more if we keep this thing rolling to the end.
  11. In spite of media hysteria, I've known several older people (including my grandparents and parents) who have gotten the 'rona more than a year ago and treated it like flu and are still around, no hospitals needed. Hope everything works out, sucks to be sick for the holidays.
  12. Very pretty drive and plenty of time to sightsee when you get behind an RV or grandpa in his farm truck going well below the speed limit. It's just as well since there are a few speed traps along the way.
  13. Merry Christmas to all. The only thing I asked Santa for is coming in 2 weeks..I think we will all enjoy my present. Cheers
  14. Shut it, We need every little bit of extra motivation. When this team plays with a fuck you attitude good things happen. Hopefully some very good things the next couple weeks.
  15. Speaking of bringing it, Michael Penix was recently asked what he remembers about last year's game against Texas.. "I don't remember anything, just that we won" Hopefully Sweat, Murphy, Hill, Burke etc can help him truly not remember this one either? Of course he can later be reminded of the loss.
  16. So did the portal spit out Bison tits or did aggy alllow him back because they need warm bodies?

    Casey Thompson

    He talked shit about our NIL while at Corn, but I think it was more of a playing to the crowd type thing. Still a shitty thing to do.
  18. Couple other questionable picks in there. SCar and Cincinnati but no USC?
  19. In years past he wouldn't win that battle and get knocked back a yard, he's definitely benefitted from 3 years of S&C.
  20. If you go to next year's game you should outfit your entire crew.
  21. I certainly hope it's not enough to beat us. I also hope we can regain the intensity and fuck you all very much we had the last two games of the season.
  22. Hey, aggy is already convinced we're doing it, why not make it reality?
  23. NFL teams grab trades right before the playoffs, seems to work for them in some cases. But you're right in that it would cause too much chaos in CFB, and most players would be hard to integrate into a system in such a short amount of time. I'm still going to wreck something if Taafe or Thompson get burned for a few TD's and cost us a shot at winning it all.
