  1. What stood out to me “they drive a new white Lexus”. Anyone want to dig deeper into this interesting detail?
  2. Wondering if we need to start an Andre Colman hustle never sleeps thread? Rumors from a pay site that he is all breaks it the recruiting department. Any one with knowledge want to kill this rumor here and now?
  3. I mean is it just me or do these practices look totally different than the ones we got to see under[insert previous coach name here]? This seems fucking explosive. Yet I choose to believe you are correct because that’s what we do as fans that post on message boards in the middle of a work day.
  4. This thread is fucked but I keep reading it. Just gut wrenching stuff in here and it’s impact is more than the usual shitty life story you read on the net or hear in the news. The first hand accounts make it so personal and thus devastating.
  5. Fair is for a pig auction and a pie eating contest.
  6. Can someone clue my dumbass in on why the officials are all happening in June?
  7. At the risks of being negged for asking a non positive question during the surge in stud recruiting by Sark to kick off his first real class, is anyone concerned about where we are with DL recruiting? To my amateur eye it appears we are behind on the top guys with the exception of the DL from North Shore. Unexpected with Bo imo. out of state push coming? Someone want to rub my balls and make me feel better?
  8. Even if correct, why the hire and then un-hire clown show? Coach and AD or AD and hire ups not on the same page, again
  9. Per many CDC nixed out of unwarranted fear.
  10. A fair amount of complaints about CDC in the 2022 recruiting thread kicked off by the non hire of Drew Hughes, better served here. Without rehashing all of it, I do find it troubling that there are now 2 hires that sark has made and has had to undo. CDC seems to be central in both cases.
  11. Not saying you are wrong but if true that is beyond baffling. Certainly doesn’t reconcile with previous hires like Casey Horny. I also recall the d line coach under Charlie that ultimately ended up with a show cause and had a stop here, if memory serves correctly.
  12. In fairness, if a show cause was going to be slapped on him not much could be done. May be why his next stop is nfl and not college
  13. My guess is that have a good feel on if Ewers flip is achievable. Based on the fact he/the family grew up burnt orange I assume they are going to shoot straight with Sark and not play games. If Murphy wants in, Ewers will give Sark his answer. Better to know sooner, especially if you have high end talent ready to jump on board as an alternative.
  14. I would add the vote of confidence for Herman that was released that was at best mystifying. Weakest vote of confidence that required a follow up phone call clarification with reporters. Terrible optics no matter whose side you are on. if rumors are believed, it was released against the recommendation of higher ups. Another example of ham handedness.
  15. For discussion... any concerns on his defense emphasizing the lb position and what seems to be a dearth of high quality at the position year in and year out in Texas hs ranks? is it overcome by UT getting the best every year despite the competition? Having to go national at the position? Trusting in a dc that is credited with taking quality yet lower ranked kids and developing them? Maybe no concern if it is true that that under his scheme the true key are the standing defensive ends?
  16. Most recently the OU WR was money whipped and said no. Likely the LSU DB coach? without knowing what 9.95 bullshit is true, it seems like a number of coaches for this cycle could fit in this category. Muschamp? nothing is decided but I understand the concern over the disconnect between cdc saying that assistants and the money for them would be a high priority for sarks new staff. The expectations were set high and imo have not been met yet. we shall see. there is no reason UT should not have the top 5 salaried coaches at each position ( translate to a top 5 coach) considering all the stuff we hear about our football revenue always being # 1
  17. Seems very reasonable that Urban would take an NFL job over Texas. The top nfl coaches salaried are higher than Top college coaches. I suspect Herman would be paid the same or better at the nfl level than UT. I could see him saying I have won 2 championships at 2 different colleges. I want to test my self at the highest level of the game in the NFL. Hell maybe they throw in a GM tag too. if I am guessing, it is most likely he was coming to Texas until the NFL called. It explains the UT confidence and then the sudden reversal.
  18. All true. I think what bothers many on here is the number of “insiders” that continued to confirm he was coming after the “no”. Debeasy stuck by his reporting of the no and is safe in my book. The others (caddox orange 1 and reneg (or something like that) among others should be called out for their lies or at a minimum admit they have shit sources.
