    The "be interesting" part of that is what @Bozo_Casanova has argued recently, stating that it's more important than the actual policies.

    Well duh. If anything in the last 10 years has taught us that policy doesn’t mean shit. Average voters don’t give a shit about the facts or details of policies. Just fucking cater

    Was just watching CNN, where they did a piece about propaganda on Iranian State TV, then segued to a “Who is Mamdani?” tease, with a clip of him aggressive and yelling. Unbelievable. 

     

     

     

    Fox would never do that

    I'm not sure what we're disagreeing about. Sure, very talented teams win in spite of shitty coaching.

    But programs don't succeed year after year unless the coach has something going for him. Larry Coker won a national championship with one of the best college football teams of all time. He finished in the top 5 his first 3 years as a coach. Does that make him a great coach?

    What I'm saying is that Charlie Strong and Tom Herman wouldn't have ultimately succeeded at Texas regardless of the talent level they inherited. They were bad coaching hires. If anything, I'm grateful both of their tenures were as short as they were. The last thing I'd wish for us as a fan base is to put up with more years with either Charlie Strong or Tom Herman because they inherited more talent. From that perspective Mack Brown did us a favor. 

    Blaming Mack Brown for what transpired after him is missing the mark, IMO. 

    Other than cock blocking us from hiring Saban. That I absolutely blame him for. Him and Joe Jamail and Deloss Dodds, among others. So that counts, if we want to go that route. 

    Mack was a shitty recruiter immediately after he won the national title, hge became lazier and lazier with it. The program was quality talent and was razor thin by the time he left. In the non portal era that left the program in a complete shit hole for the next coach, no matter who it was. 2010-2013 Mack wasn't successful by any stretch of your imagination. Mack also made the dumbest fucking coaching change in the history of the sport going from a spread offense that literally got him to 2 national championship games to a dumbass pro style just because of 1 game. 

    Jimbo
    Coach O
    Chizik
    Coker
    Miles
    Switzer with Cowboys

    All won titles because talent over coaching.

    I wonder if there is a difference in a JUCO transfer or JUCO commit.  Is a transfer someone who leaves JUCO as a Freshman or with eligibility left?  A commit is a Sophomore who has exhausted the JUCO eligibility?  Or is there no difference whatsoever?

    IDK what JUCO counts as anymore considering the Pavia court ruling.

    Oh good, advice on how to run a message board from possibly the worst poster on the board.

    Ewers is no longer on the team. I know you're dying to shit on him but you'll need to do it on another thread.

    Or advice from someone who lost a board?

    Why is this a new thread? What is new here that didn't belong in the Official Sark Thread of Dominance?

    Why does awesome shit need to be confined to meta threads that hardly anyone fucking reads cause they're so god damn long?

    I have seen it. Assuming no attrition, we only lose Brevard and Hunter after next season, leaving 8 plus however many we sign this class. 5 would be a luxury, not a necessity.

    I don't disagree.

    That is slim pikcings after this season. Watson if he continues on his trajectory will be a junior when 2026 class are freshmen and could be a potential loss to NFL. Melvin Hills is likely not going to be a major contributor at Texas.
