  1. Yup. Will expand on this later I literally spit up a fajita all over the dinner table when I read this. Hahahahaha.
  2. Don’t worry everyone. A new Fed Chairman is coming, along with a new round of QE, so that mortgage rates will drop and a whole new asset bubble on top of the previous asset bubble will emerge. Bubble Squared! To really cement wealth concentration even more. Yay?
  3. Too many white guys.
  4. We were planning to go but wife got sick. I guessed it’s Ebola. She’s not amused.
  5. My guess is that Arch hasn’t been ruled out because Sark wants to make it more difficult for Vandy to prep. The reality is that playing a week after concussion is tricky. Aikman talked about doing it once and he said he was in a fog that whole game and was terrible. Even if he plays, he might be too foggy to be effective. The last thing he needs is another shaky game.
  6. This is a textbook surly example of a really stupid post.
  7. We’ve got Butler back!!!!!
  8. Nobody knows shit about fuck regarding how Caldwell will perform vs Arch. We all learn together Saturday.
  9. This is what I was mentioning earlier. While we’ve all been frustrated by the visible miss of open receivers, there are things he’s doing behind a dog shit offensive line that are incredible.
  10. That’s quite an analysis based upon one whole pass completed this year.
  11. I think a lot of folks on this board are underestimating the challenge the Texas offense will have without Arch under center. We’ve all been pretty harsh on Arch, a lot of it deserved. However the play calling and schemes have not done a good job of recognizing the OL and WR issues and putting Arch in a better position to succeed. As Sark tries to adjust to a more short passing game, he’s going to try and grind out a win with the run and short passes. The Vanderbilt defense will know this and will stuff the line of scrimmage. With our OL issues, it could get very rough to score points. Conversely, not having Taaffe making defensive calls and recognizing the plays pre snap will make the defense more vulnerable. Every one of us should be tickled with an overtime 13-10 win, with the vaunted Vanderbilt QB fumbling away the game at the 5 yard line.
  12. Ok, which recycled poster is scramblyn?
  13. I needed this thread. I’ve been in a deeper funk than Texas for the last two weeks. And as for the above poster’s thought of beating A&M 3 times this year, that would almost be better than a title just because it would talked about for eternity .
  14. I came to catch up on this thread and noticed several new pages. There wasn’t one useful or interesting post today. That’s pathetic.
  15. Watched the full game again this morning. A few observations: It was ironic seeing ex-Texas players make so many big plays against Texas. Arch had some really good, some bad. The OL not giving him time was a bigger issue than Arch in this game. Also, receivers dropped a lot of passes. Key penalties saved their ass. They never quit. That’s pretty cool. The entire game never felt good. That is such a drag. With Sark very likely leaving, it’s a huge bummer to start over, because they will likely take some significant step backwards.

    Niblett!

    make him the center. He’ll be in on every play and the OL will be upgraded.
  17. Just to add to the frustration over Sark, he took two of the best QB prospects in years and under-developed them. Meanwhile, the hefty one and his new OC down the road took Marcel Reed, who was a disaster last year, and just turned him into the Heisman front runner.
  18. So I haven’t been following 2027 recruiting at all. There’s a rumor Sark isn’t doing much and Texas is in real trouble for the 2027 class. There was also a rumor of PK getting out too, although he obviously doesn’t do as much recruiting. Anyone getting a sense things are going sideways?
  19. I’m not making the case and I’m not speculating. I’m just passing along that I know for a fact there is an aspect of the job that he doesn’t like that I guess he believes isn’t an issue at the next level. Is that causing a move? I have no idea. People always bitch about their jobs. update: there’s obviously a lot more going on behind the scenes. I’m not saying anything else. This is just going to have to play out .
  20. I hate to break it to you, but twice in the past, three times?, ….
  21. I’ll take any white lineman with a polish last name.
  22. Nicole nailed this. She and my wife both noticed he didn’t seem right and didn’t want to be here weeks ago.
  23. See my comment above. It’s not Texas specific. College vs nfl responsibilities.
