Do they give championship trophies for "recruiting reasons?" I don't see how a collosal failure will help recruiting. Arch has already provided an extraordinary recruiting boost for which I am grateful. Losing in the name of hoping he pans out is ludicrous.
-
Congrats on your guy. Now I shall vomit outside on the grass.
-
Once a person is wrong he can never be right again. That's your argument? Sound.
-
He's had three games of those plus playing time last year. Do you think his performance is what to expect from a person who has been two years in the system? What type of game reps correct a sidearm throw into the dirt? I think you think of him as a five star recruit. That's not what he is anymore.
-
I agree that that's possible, and I surely desire to see it happen. My advocacy for benching him does not mean that he should not have the chance to earn the spot back. I think earning the spot is exactly what he needs. It's not his fault that so much was given to him earlier and that so much is expected of and predicted for him now. He needs a lesser hill to climb. That may be moving from second team back to first team. He would win back the confidence of the offense if he were to do that. Developing him on the field is an unmitigated disaster at this point. I don't fault Sark, yet.

That wasn't the question.

I'd be looking nervous. Then I'd be looking for the back-up.

Why the fuck is anybody talking about Vince or Gilbert? Neither fell to this level of incompetence. Not even close. All they have in common is the five star rating out of high school. Who gives a shit about that once they play? I qualify my responses below by saying I don't know shit, but I can see. Whoever the fifth year senior is that we portalled in. He is actually a college QB. Arch is not at this moment. Arch is not improving by being on the field during any of our games this year. Let's try taking him out and see how that works.' I don't think we have a winning record this year by continuing to force Arch as QB1. What else can be created for a guy who sidearms throws into the ground and can't hit receivers? Ten incompletions in the second quarter against UTEP. That's not someone you change your offense for. Arch's failure is likely beginning to affect play at every offensive position. Failure breeds hopelessness. I hurt writing that about Manning. Best case scenario has him stepping back from the starting role and earning his way back. Vince could do shit. Arch is not his equal in any area right now. I think PTSD Arch is now harming the performance of the entire offense. How many times can you run a route correctly or pass block well or pick up a blitz if every such effort proves fruitless. Ten incomplete passes in a row. What I've seen the last few season are well designed plays where QBs fail to connect. Ewers, likely due to injury, couldn't hit the open deep ball. I thought Arch would add that dimension, but he is dangerously inaccurate. As for choosing QBs: Everybody liked what they saw of Manning at his little high school. I don't think anyone would have anticipated this breakdown nor been able to prevent it. Ewers was often injured. I'll say we're having bad luck at QB. Manning must sit. Performance is everything for choosing starters. It's pretty simple. ETA: Watching the good match-ups today, I saw Texas losing to all of these teams, even the Aggies, if we continue with Manning. Our goal is to win not sooth a hothouse flower.

He must be benched. I think it's his best chance to get straightened out even if that's not why I think we should bench him. We should bench him because he has played well enough to deserve continued starts. We will not win with this level of performance. Maybe Caldwell is our Randy McEachern. You can't keep a QB playing this poorly in the game. If it's pressure bugging him, then take it off of him by starting somebody who looks like they know what they're doing. This game is the worst by a Texas starting QB that I've ever seen. Football players cannot afford to be emotional cripples. And, to repeat from earlier posts, I like Arch Manning.

The Georgia Tech coach in the opening drive decides to get "super aggressive" according to the idiots in the booth. If they get the first or the td, the rambling wreck be veddy happy. Clemson be veddy sad. Even so, if they just kick the points, the rambling wreck be veddy happy. Clemson be veddy sad. But, turn over the ball on downs, and no happiness or points for GT, Clemson wins the series. Clemson veddy happy. So, it ends up, GT sacrifices an easy 3 points against a ranked team in their first possession, and Clemson players rejoice. Coaches: You don't know the value of 3 points this early in the game. Right now, in the second half, Clemson leads GT by 1. But Roma, you idiot, GT got the ball right back on a turnover and scored td! I am an idiot, but I do realize that that same scenario playing out with three points already scored puts GT with a two possession lead over a demoralized Clemson. Where else will this play out today? GT may still win, but I but Coach SuperDuper Aggressive wishes he had those 3 points. Tom Herman and now Sark have repeatedly chosen the bad experience of failing to score after a drive. Somebody stop the madness!

Charlie Kirk assassinated at an event in Utah (by a 22 YO groyper)
RomaVicta replied to msbesq's topic in Cloak Room
They're searching for quotes to cover both sides in order to make sure nobody thinks they're picking on the traitors. -
Interesting comment about your perception of slowness. American story-telling has evolved (devolved?) in my lifetime. Can you pin down where the story dragged for you? Really curious and not looking for a fight.

Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread

They got the white pants, too. New helmet for the ND Game. Looks good except no elegant, iconic logo like another team that they don't care about has. https://twitter.com/i/status/1966260574041551342 And they got the swag back! Common responses: And this So true. -
Charlie Kirk assassinated at an event in Utah (by a 22 YO groyper)
RomaVicta replied to msbesq's topic in Cloak Room
Double fuck him. If he is sharp, no question, and he's talking castration of transpersons, then he chose to be a monster for popularity. I only knew his name and basic stance, thanks for filling me in on just how bad this has become. It was already bad that such monsters were not shouted down; it's particularly grotesque to have the raper-in-chief disgrace state decorum by heroizing Kirk. -

Announced is the key word there. It would have had to be planned before the announcement. There was no reason for anyone involved in the planning not to speak freely about it. It's not a presidential visit like the ones when we used have presidents. They're second rate sophistry is slipping down into those also receiving votes. If you distinguish between public and private settings for the more polite way to assassinate someone, you believe polite, private assassinations are okay. What do I win? -
Was the law enforcement guy masking his face with no clear identity and waving an automatic weapon around?

Ranked opponents doesn't include road losses to Miss State, Ole Miss, S. Carolina, et al.. They haven't done well against insanely beatable opponents either. That Covid victory for Texas againt OSU back in 2020 would not have been a lay-up for the Aggies. They weren't the wronged juggernaut that they claim they were. The record vs ranked opponents only comes up when they play ranked opponents. This appears to the writer above to be a dispensation from facing the full dismal picture. Also, does he factor in the low percentage of games A&M plays away from home?

Keep it vague, American journalists and editors. Conservative politics? WTF does that mean? This lazy, timid shit abetted the enemies of a republic. Conservative politics: Well, maybe we have heard from the party responsible for the shooting playing to an audience with no sense of irony or honesty. This country (the white or delusional or acquiescent parts) elected their perfect voice. We don't have to be this way. We choose to be this way. Wake the fuck up.

I got through 2 minutes. The uproarious laughter is puzzling.

PM Derka must mean pin a medal on Derka. They only care about their own. Think of all the shit they made up about Pelosi's husband. They watch police killings of any black person and dig to find some reason or just make it up. They heroized the fuckwad who drove to a protest demonstration and machine gunned people. Their spokesman and demigod pardoned the traitors who attacked the Capitol and killed people. They can all slide into a volcano as far as I'm concerned. Or they can fall prey to a sick fuck like the guy they drove to shoot up the Walmart in El Paso. It's war. Adopt a harder heart. See clearly. Being soft is no virtue in war. I don't advocate killing, but they are pretty cool with killing us. I don't want to go down offering a hug. They want to destroy anyone who gets in the way of them setting up their white boy dictatorship dressed as the envy of the world.

I'm just gushing thoughts and prayers for this man. His rhetoric is part of the sinister choir igniting stochastic terrorism. Live by the sword...

They're so covert that you can never get an accurate count.
