  1. A lot of coaches like working with younger players and developing them. Also the vast majority of pro football coaches are NFL lifers, working their way up through the system.
  2. The NFL desires just make so little sense to me. He was OC for the Falcons for 2 years, and was fired after HC Dan Quinn was forced to clean house. His performance was middling at best, as he took over a high powered Falcon offense and left with an average one. He's HC/OC/play caller at Texas. I'm assuming he'd want the same responsibilities in the pros. Even if an NFL team is willing to give him that power, it's still fleeting. If he sucks the owner/GM will pull play calling duties ASAP. Unlikely he gets a higher yearly salary in the NFL. The only thing that makes sense to me is if he hates dealing with NIL/portal/recruiting/staff turnover & hires. But those are his most successful areas at Texas so far. Sark was lucky to even get the Texas head coaching job. Looking for a way out seems ridiculous.
  3. Yes. 2nd play of the game. Was already yelling at the TV to just hand it off to Wisner on 1st an goal at the 3 or whatever. Instead QB run and Arch gets dinged up a little. Because of course.
  4. Here is every Caldwell play this season.
  5. Feels like we are in a simulation. Cuomo is a comic book villain. Basic values have just disappeared.
  6. The amount of Deion/Shedeur oxygen we were forced to breath on ESPN the last few years was ridiculous. Nature is healing.
  7. Lots of Caldwell snaps here. Threw a few picks but almost brought them back.
  8. Hard to find stuff on YouTube, here are some highlights last year vs. GA Southern.
  9. I'm legitimately excited for what looks like Caldwell's opportunity to start vs. Vandy. It's clear he's a great teammate. Feels like the players will definitely rally around him. I'm hope it's announced soon, so we can get Zapruder breakdowns all week of his handful of plays so far 😂.
  10. This legitimately made be laugh out loud. You're something, man.
  11. No one read the article. It's the specific tweet she sent, which currently has over 8 million views. Everyone gives a fuck. We're Texas. That's why it became national news very quickly.
  12. Yeah, Sark has spoken a few times in the past about the "adapt or die" philosophy he got from Saban. Too bad it didn't stick.
  13. She's not an investigative journalist. Relationships are important in her field too. The timing was bullshit. Clearly we'll just agree to disagree.
  14. I think publishing that rumor the morning of game day is a bullshit move. Caught like wildfire and became a distraction for the HC and team.
  15. The fuckup by Russini was dropping that info the morning of game day. That was a bullshit move and she should know better.
  16. It's hilarious that NFL teams still try to go after "great" CFB head coaches. They are two wildly different jobs and that experiment has been a general failure over the years.
  17. Which reminds me, how the FUCK did the refs miss that blatantly tripping by D-lineman on that Arch run in red zone earlier? That was a huge no-call on a 3rd down play.
  18. I'm assuming Caldwell is starting this week with Arch in possible concussion protocol. Gotta think Defense will be hungry to tighten things up next week after this tough outing tonight. Caldwell being a bit of a mystery to Vandy should be an advantage for us, at least early in the game.
  19. I don't recall his name, but he is an offensive assistant that is usually in the booth. They brought him down to the field and sent Milwee up to the booth to change things up this week. Don't remember where I read/saw that. EDIT: found it
  20. I can't find the post from another thread, but I think @Thatguy is right. We're doing this all wrong with Arch. I know he came here for Sark's NFL-esque offense. But right now, he's pretty shitty at all that stuff. His timing sucks, struggles with play action, we're playing bunched 12 personnel all the time and depending on too many rhythmic passing plays. While playing behind one of the shittiest OLs I can remember. Simplify everything. Spread it out. Embrace off-schedule plays/throws. If he needs to see guys open in order to throw it, then get him out of the fucking pocket to create. Honestly, it reminds me of the VY situation with Mack/GD. If it pisses off the Manning family, so be it. Do they want him to be successful, or continue to struggle in a style that he's clearly not ready for while getting killed in the pocket?
