  1. Bzzt. That never happened. You were fooled by the Clintonese in the press release.
  2. Calling it now, we'll win out. All of the remaining teams we'll face are terrible to mediocre. No team can be this snakebit for four games in a row. By the end of the year, our guys will have some confidence and win the bowl game against a top 25-ish team for 9-4. With the perspective of hindsight, this 3-game skid will be disregarded as growing pains while Sark installs his culture.
  3. How does making an offer and being rejected "make you look like a dumbass"?
  4. Anyone concerned about getting And that's a bad thing how? We should call every top-tier coach and make a serious offer. In the best case, we get a top-tier coach. In the worst case, we get rejected and the coach gets a salary increase. Forcing our opponents to pay more for the same level of service hurts their competitiveness, because they can't spend that money on more productive things to compete against us. Look, this is basketball. We are underdogs, and we should behave like it. Get out there in the market and fucking scrap.
  5. Anyone know what an "assistant head coach" is? Clearly it's something that doesn't interfere with the duties of what I thought were full time jobs (special teams coach, tight ends coach), but is it really just a meaningless title? If so, what's the point of it? If it's just resume fodder, won't future employers see through it?
  6. Is Kyle Flood confirmed, or are we still relying on the 247 report?
  7. Anyone know what Sarkisian's buyout will be if he's fired after, say, 3 years?
  8. Texas could do a lot worse than Turner for the OL job. I don't give a rat's ass about the "scandals".
  9. From the article: "...the planet-despoiling enterprise that is big-kids college football" LOL, what an absolute clown.
  10. Pathetic. If that attendance doesn't demonstrate the sad state of Tom Herman's program, I don't know what will.
  11. I was suggesting a way to prevent the reindexing that you were complaining of.
  12. If you can, turn off the feature where the thread title is included in the URL. For example: https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/18304-2020/page/59/ is equivalent to https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/18304-2020-alamo-bowl-texas-vs-colorado/page/59/ but the latter will change when the thread title changes, confusing the search engines.
  13. This probably was a meaningful football metaphor about 50 years ago. The football historian in me is curious.
  14. I mean, he was asked what motivates him, and his answer was about what motivates him. The "you" in his answer was referring to himself, or a generic NFL player. I don't read this as an attack on his teammates at all.
  15. Is that plane dropping like a thousand smoke grenades, or...?
  16. If you don't know how to use that word properly, simply don't use it. No one will even notice. HTH
  17. It's all moot anyway. Whoever wins this year will get a big, fat asterisk next to their title. No way OSU has earned a spot on the field. We don't know the relative strength of conferences, because no one played OOC games. Random games were cancelled due to COVID, affecting some teams more than others. This season is just a big pile of shit, and the choice of playoff teams will be largely based on reputation rather than on-field performance.
  18. The phrase "at the time" should never be used in relation to college football. It always refers to something irrelevant.
