    That's a good point; I still have no clue why Jimbo just stood there and let Trickett ruin that unit.

    Jimbo ruined the unit. He hired Trickett who favored long lean athletic guys - think TEs turned OTs, etc ... and then Jimbo proceeded to fill his room with fat ass cubes on the recruiting trail, because Jimbo fucking LOVES giant bodied OL guys in his old school heart. It was like hiring Mike Leach and then only recruiting wishbone players. Henson's time with Jimbo started the same way, but Henson has somehow broken through the wall and started to get guys in that can move.

    are there coaches in the last 40 years or so that have falied at a blueblood that have had success?

    Brady Hoke is killing it at SDSU and Frank Solich had a really good career at Ohio post-Nebraska.

    Because all of them are dog shit so what does it really matter if he says Jerrin or Schooler?

    Because: Fuck Bobby Burton  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

     

     

     

     

     

    Also, because I think Schooler is the worst offender of that bunch - if we are talking about guys getting worked in space and REMAINS a fucking starter for this meathead fuckface coaching the defense, despite being fucking terrible.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    What is up with OU in that commitment? I cant remember them being mentioned. If I was a WR and wanted to stay in the area, OU and Texas would be the decision. Just wondering why OU isnt involved with Stewart

    He was interested in OU early but Jordan Hudson decommit seemed to have killed off any possibility. I think he connected with Riley well but not so much with Simmons. 

  5. I admit it. I am absolutely dumbfounded that there is a single solitary Texas fan who is on board with Sarkisian in any way shape or form. Every single week he makes a new historic mark for futility. This guy is 10 games in and has achieved the kind of futility that John Mackovic, with a roster of guys who ACTIVELY AND PUBLICLY HATED HIM AND QUIT ON HIM, didn't achieve. Sark has achieved futility in only 10 games that Charlie Strong never reached. Charlie. Strong. He's put David McWilliams in the rearview and he hasn't finished a single season. He's historically terrible. 

    For those of you that think that the Kansas loss was the bottom, I have news for you about what 2022 is going to be.

    There are guys in the 2022 class coming in more skilled. Is what it is. 

    Trevell Johnson and Eoghan Kerry? I'd take Cooks over either of them any day of the week - esp a 2nd year in the system Cooks.  Johnson's hip injury makes his future status murky at best. As it stands now the SAM depth chart is Ovie and Ben Davis. Cooks was the next man up and now he's gone.

    The blaming the city of Austin bit is always funny. As if there are no parties, girls, sheep, or whatever in Norman or College Station; and players at Texas are treated like royalty in a major city where most people wouldn’t recognize or cares about them while the big fish in the small ponds that are OU and aggy receive no such treatment. Okay.

    For real. The average Austinite has not a single fucking clue who Casey Thompson is. 

    Live look in at Swimming and Diving grinding every other program in their path into fucking dust - the baseball team kicking heads in. Tennis. Track. Rowing. etc ...

    If you're calling UT to have them walk you through the process then it might be a problem

    We, as a fanbase and institution, are new to this. We're learning. This is way outside our comfort zone after decades of not Playing The Game.

    You should probably bow out of the conversation now. Texas had a head start on getting ready for the NIL stuff - the Leverage program for example was a perfect in-road into getting players and businesses feet wet with the bi-directional relationships that could foster wins for both sides. CDC is a fucking moron and shits down his fucking leg at every hint of something being difficult and anything that isn't gladhanding or drinking and has purposefully distanced himself from even a cursory understanding of how NIL works and how Texas could benefit.  His failure in leadership has led directly to difficulties in generating easy differentiators from other schools. If you talk to the admins at TCU, OU, LSU, aggy -- even SMU and UTSA - they will get you in touch with people that can turn the idea into solution.  This isn't about "playing the game" or the history of it, this is about an administration that is led by a fuckwit.
