  1. This. I actually grew up a Lions fan, in Michigan. I was a kid, at the 1989 playoff win. But fuck that redass aggy coach.
  2. I highly recommend the final cyclocross race of the season that pitted Wout van Aert and MvdP against one another last weekend. Even if you've never watched cyclocross, it's easy to pick up, and there are some thrilling moments of pure power in this race. Access to cycling in the United States has become an absolute nightmare, but fortunately it is on YouTube. I've time-stamped it to the start of the men's race. https://youtu.be/BkrCjEllKnA?si=3-mmGgQ8zqrJ-3H0&t=5756 The FloBikes commentary in the link above is pure shit, so I recommend watching it on Eurosport/Discovery+ (UK-based) if possible.
  3. Let me tell *you* something, pendejo. You pull any of your crazy shit with us, you flash some moderation out on the forums, I'll take it away from you, and stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger 'til it goes "click."
  4. He ain't come here to play school. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/deion-sanders-reveals-shedeur-sanders-possibly-has-never-taken-a-class-on-campus-in-college
  5. Two things can be true at the same time. Yes, Kenny Baker does not have a deep resume. One could look at this track record and say he does not have enough skins on the wall to be coaching DTs at Texas. His ability to recruit is unproven. All of these are red flags. However, Texas under Sark has shown no reluctance to spend money to get top coaches. They were willing to break the bank for Bo Davis, but dude likes to move around and had family reasons to go to LSU. Texas just went and got Arizona's DC to be its linebackers coach. Sark presumably had plenty of cash to chase a wide range of options for a DL coach. He ended up with Kenny Baker. It seems likely that since this process was not rushed, and Texas had resources, that this was a hire Sark wanted to make. So in his view Baker is a plus for the team. Given his track record in hiring coaches, and Baker's experience in the deep south, it seems prudent to give Sark some leeway and see how Baker works out. Maybe it's a tragic mistake. Or maybe it's the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Like CTJ said above, the hire is singularly great because it was so out of the blue it is going trigger a lot of debate among the populace of this message board. We get to enjoy seeing morons be morons. A few years from now we'll be able to look back at some people and laugh. Truth is, we don't know shit about fuck when it comes to how this will all play out. Embrace the chaos.
  6. You're doing great work for Texas, my good sir. But I cannot let the butchering of a perfectly cromulent word like "commensurate" go unchecked.
  7. Griffin, possibly our top QB target for 2026, just needs a mullet to resemble a young Quinn. /nokatfid
  8. It has taken some experimentation, but it's good that Sark has finally found the level of equivalence between Arizona and Texas: An Arizona DC ranks below a position coach at Texas and above an analyst. Texas DL coach > Arizona DC Texas analyst < Arizona DC
  9. Nahlin writes such mealy-mouthed shit it's a complete waste of time to parse his words. If he knew what the fuck was going on, he would write a definitive and declarative sentence. Instead he's slinging poo. It's on y'all if you want to wade through his feces to find meaning. As for DT, Bobby seems to think we're interested and pushing in the Poly kid. I'd also imagine the staff is keeping an eye on Michigan's DT roster given the possibility that Harbaugh may jump ship.
  10. Nice! I haven't subscribed to a 9.95 site since leaving 247 a decade ago. But I'll gladly support a Surly/OTF mashup that combines the best of degenerate assholery and real UT information on the web.
  11. Pleasant Grove EDGE Lance Jackson has announced his verbal commitment to Steve Sarkisian and the Texas Longhorns. On Texas Football story. https://www.on3.com/db/lance-jackson-150199/
  12. Hope we get him. He could be a real rock on our interior line.
  13. I wonder what the play there is long term. Cool we can sign in with Surly accounts, though.
  14. Aggy offered last week. Giggle. https://247sports.com/player/raycine-guillory-46132078/
  15. Going from 8.2 wins a season to 6.2 wins a season is a trajectory I like, that's for sure.
