  1. I haven't followed this Platner tattoo controversy closely. My initial reaction is that it shouldn't automatically be disqualifying, but sure doesn't help how aggressive he's been with (fairly) criticizing the Democratic establishment. Like, not having a fucking SS tattoo (or at least removing it) sure fucking helps when trying to break through as a modern progressive. Fucking idiot. I am all for very progressive candidates. But all these leftists defending him have killed other decent Democratic candidates for way less questionable backgrounds. Flip flopping on the purity tests is bullshit and annoying.
  2. Damn, that was frustrating. OKC is so relentless with on ball defense, which exposed some issues. KD needs to be better late in the game.
  3. Well, a win vs. Mississippi State makes us bowl eligible, so y'all are on the same page.
  4. Reminded me of this:
  5. Which film are you talking about? The handful of drives vs. UGA when Quinn was benched or the 10 total TDs in the other 2.5 full games he played in?
  6. Here's the play and reaction with Wingo running off to the bench. Again, I understand the frustration. But it's the 1st quarter. It's concerning. arch wingo.mp4
  7. His body language is terrible out there. On the wide open crosser that Arch missed in the 1st quarter, Wingo kept going straight to the sidelines and sat down on the bench by himself, never breaking stride. Like, I know it's frustrating. But there's just so much bad mojo.
  8. This is a dogshit fastball at Wingo’s feet: Arch is 100% to blame for this incompletion. The ball is the speck on the 35 yard line, right before it hits the turf. My sincere question; Is it too much to ask Wingo to get down and at least attempt to catch it? It was high velocity, would need to be a quick reaction.
  9. This is a straw man. Have we taken a big step back this year with OL compared to last year?
  10. I watched our offensive possessions vs. Kentucky for a 3rd time, because I'm a masochist. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. It's gets so much worse with repeated viewings. Just a bunch of bumbling chucklefucks out there on the field. Everything is disconnected. And UK owning the TOP made everything worse. There is zero rhythm on offense. Situationally, the worse Arch miss was to Endries. FUCK. Godfuckingdamnit. That would have basically ended the game IMO.
  11. Kelvin Banks - Hayden Conner - Jake Majors - DJ Campbell - Cameron Williams We have taken a major step back at LT, LG, C, and RT this year. The OL is the foundation, and our foundation is broken.
  12. Arch deserves blame. So does everyone else involved with the offense. Sorry you can't understand nuance.
  13. We scored 16 offensive points. Plenty of positives to take from that performance, but not worth a ton of praise IMO. It was a great starting point.
  14. Yes, in year 3 of Quinn Ewers starting at Texas I criticized him. The only reason I'd question myself about it now is because you and I were somehow in agreement.
  15. Sark completely abandoned that game plan. Do you watch the games? Do you understand what is happening on the field?
  16. No one is saying it was a great performance vs. OU. But it was something to build on.
  17. No. The layups aren't plentiful but you have to make the easy throws when there. And defenses will keep teeing off until you actually burn them. It's infuriating.
  18. He got destroyed vs. Kentucky. Big hits all over the place, including his last run of the game. Not many QBs out there that can finish a game with that type of beating. I mean, look at this shit.
  19. I understand the pessimism, but that Kentucky game plan and performance, particularly after the OU win, was so unacceptable that you can't find a way to excuse it. I wouldn't be surprised if CDC voiced some concern to Sark. His job is safe right now, but that was a major red flag you can't shrug off. The Mississippi State game is gonna tell us a lot.
  20. What's crazy is with all of Arch's obvious struggles, I'm convinced Sark fully believes in Arch's ability and potential based on his puzzling game plans. The UTEP game was a full blown disaster. Then against a really shitty SHSU, Arch played well. I won't oversell it, there's only so much you can do vs. SHSU to make people feel better. But he executed. Then vs. FLA, Sark tried to unleash Arch. Tons of deep routes and hero ball play calling. Arch had 15 carries, RBs had 11 carries for 15 yards. His game plan was to put everything in Arch's hands. DIdn't help that defense played poorly, but still. Manning was battered and bruised after that game, so much so that Sark praised him for taking every starter snap in practice that week. The game plan devised for OU was clearly designed to protect Arch. Run the ball, short/immediate quick passing attack, and only a few Arch runs where we started to see him sliding. He plays an efficient game, didn't take many hits, and we get a nice win. I guess Sark felt good again, so he decided to return to fully depending on Arch offensively. Scrapped the running game, kept him mostly in the pocket throwing where he got hammered by the defense again. Hopefully Sark has learned his lesson at this point. Run the ball, get Arch in a rhythm with short passing attack first. If we run successfully and keep the pass rush from teeing off, then take some shots downfield. It feels like he's trying to skip steps in the process. Like he's in denial with what we've seen with Arch on the field so far.
  21. It's fitting that the poster who calls people pussies all the time is actually the biggest pussy on this board. Your shit filled brain doesn't process that people are clearly disappointed and pissed about Arch's play so far this season. But they aren't whinging enough for your tastes, they need to cry and complain and blame Arch for all of our offense's struggles. And to do it everyday, multiple times a day. Nevermind the historically shitty o-line play, inconsistent running game, and a HC/OC that is throwing shit on the wall to come up with an offensive game plan. We had to bring in a transfer from Troy because our HC wasn't comfortable with the backup QB situation. Looking at the alternative to Arch, there's not a lot to be excited about. Does the backup QB fix O-line play? Does he help establish a running game.? Give us your opinion on an alternative solution. Don't just bitch, what is your answer? Should Matthew Caldwell be the starting QB at Texas this season moving forward?
  22. Are we basing this on his one snap vs UF or the trash time vs Sam Houston St. and San Jose St?
