  1. Our coaches have to reload and win with inexperienced guys if we ever want to be a power. OU has done and continues to do it and we have to get past them to matter on the national stage. There is no team in the Big 12 outside of OU that should have as potent an offense as we should have. We have more on-paper talent on D than anyone else. If we are losing games because all our other positions can't blow out our opponents to overcome a mediocre LB corp, then we are in for a long run of 'almost'.
  2. Paging @Katfid54. Katfid54 to the 'I am white' courtesy phone.
  3. Who gets credit depends on whether we get them signed or not.
  4. Dammit, I didn't get the crazy cheering aggy.
  5. Surprised at the number of people who don't take the Surl warts and all. I love and hate everyone of you bastards. No homo.
  6. The NCAA is just a reflection of its membership. It isn't an independent organization. I don't know why the majority of schools that don't want to aggressively cheat, don't accept the costs that come with that and stand up for their own rules. I guess they get paid too no matter how much some schools cheat and no one wants to upset the apple cart. But in the end the cheating will lead to changes that the member schools don't want, like players getting paid. All it will take is a few players who got paid big bucks by their SEC handlers to set the market and the courts aren't likely going to side with the bungling NCAA turning a blind eye to the fact that the market already exists.
  7. Neither school got a commitment from their Spring Games. Advantage: aggy
  8. satya doesn't have socks more like used tampons.
  9. I know it isn't Kyle Field, but what stadium is that to the right of the water tower? Soccer? Track? Meat judging?
  10. Caption: Maybelle Skoog leaves College Station after her husband, Hunter (Class of '39), eloped with local ewe.
  11. This is actual footage of Oscar Giles when he sees Herman coming to tell him to start recruiting already.
  12. Fucking Penn State can bring in Top 5 classes and their fan base still thinks aiding and abetting child rape was worth having Joe Pa put them on the map, so that their current rape-cover-up coach can lead them to Big 10 titles. I imagine a majority of their fan base would even say it to the face of one of Sandusky's victims.
  13. Good point. Did he get one of those 'removing stripes' tweets though?
  14. Surprised Whittington still has his stripe...
  15. And we are probably going to pay a Mike Young equivalent $3.2M or more in a year or two...If VT wants to stay under $3M, then they are smart to pay the next guy something closer to his experience rather than just saying the VT coach gets $2.6M+ because that what VT pays for its coach.
  16. Thanks. There have already been a few P5-to-P5 LB transfers, so perhaps there is some value there. The potential transfer list has several P5 guys listed, but I don't know who is actually decent. The only name I recognized was USC's Betiku, but I don't really follow teams outside of Texas and the Big 12.
  17. Clemson Spring Game Today. While it sounds like the coaches are happy with the RB room, I am guessing we still chase Feaster should he decide to portal, right? Not sure Orlando had penciled Floyd in for major playing time, but any background on what LB grad transfers generally look like? Is it all JAGs or is there value?
  18. So why do you think some people have decided to defend Giles to such extremes? I am merely positing that some may want to think Herman infallible and therefore are inclined to think Giles is serving some role in an elite fashion to warrant his place on the staff. I am not sure what else motivates them. The on-field coaching staff is probably the most glaring issues at this point in his UT tenure (hopefully he stops coughing up games to shitty teams as he has done in each of his 4 seasons as an HC). The program is trending in the right direction, but let's see where it goes first and whether his blind spots, especially on the coaching staff, prove to be his undoing or not. The conference is still owned by OU, though to me perhaps the best thing that can be said of Herman thus far is that it is unlikely his teams will ever lay down to OU like too many of Mack's teams did. However, Herman's brief record shows some of Mack's inability to navigate the full conference slate necessary to winning a conference consistently. I want to see him lock down a conference title this season.
