You want to look like Auburn
They were the idiots this year. Luckily not us
If you had your way we would be stuck with a replacement like Charlie Strong again
CDC already said that Tom Herman isn't going anywhere.
But continue to think that they are actively looking for another coach.
Continue to push rumors made up by people who have zero connection to the program besides running a website
Brian Kelly is having success at ND right now because they stuck with him
12-0 was an anomaly when you look at all the other years
Just do you because CDC doesn't care.
They aren't going to fire him for going 8-5 like ND didn't fire Kelly for going 8-5
What he would be inheriting is a better and more coherent program than he took over at ND. Notre Dame had won 3, 6 and 5 games I'm the seasons prior. It was basically a full rebuild. Texas is not.
Was when Herman took the job.
Brian Kelly was given the time and space to improve ND.
Those 4 consecutive 10 wins seasons didn't come without going through years 1-7.
So some of you are wanting Brian Kelly but truthfully we may already have him
Brian Kelly's first seven seasons were pretty much like what we have.
A lot of ND fans wanted him gone. The message board chatter was Kelly wasn't good enough.
Brian Kelly was able to turn the corner at ND because they stuck with him.
People want to talk about what he has done the last 4 years.
I am looking at Year 1-7. Because if Kelly averages 8-5 and 9-4 for seven years at Texas
He would be wanting to push him out like some of you are doing with Herman
Honest question.
Didn't the Charlie Strong years piss you off way more than what is going on now.
2010-2016 this season would have been considered a peak year.
Just interested why a 6-3 season will make you throw in the towel but three consecutive losing seasons didn't
Does anyone remember the backup running back. Might have been Ivan Williams. Benson going out with a concussion totally screwed up. Even with Simms if Benson played that game would have been over.
But there was no reason to be so thin at Running Back especially considering Benson was a true freshman.
I trust Chris Ash here. Have to trust at least some of our coaches.
Ash has showed me so far his football opinion should be valued especially in regards to Safties.
Some people couldn't handle it when I told them it was Alford a few days ago.
Couldn't beat out Cook for the spur position to get on the field. I guess they are looking at the transfer portal for the spur position.
Wonder who the OL Coach at Katy Taylor thinks is a better OLmen
Foster or Conner
Foster's buzz is about blocking Bryan Breese at some Rivals Camp.
Did Breese really do much at Clemson this year
JaQuinden Jackson at best would have been a more athletic Sam Ehlinger.
Ehlinger has limitations to his game. Half the sacks were his fault. Nothing against Sam. Great QB and a Leader.
But Texas needs to take another step up at the QB position. Hudson Card could be that guy.
A lot of it has to do with his quick release. His ability to deliver the ball quickly and accurately to the WRs. You combine that with the Running Game. The offense has a chance to be even more explosive next year.
Nothing against JQJ. But he would have stuck us in that same box that Ehlinger did.
Plus there are rumors that he didn't develop that much during the season. Difference between him and Ehlinger. Ehlinger forced himself to get better.
I want the staff to evaluate well regardless.
Problem this year is there hasn't really been camps.
I don't know understand why you would think the people at 247 and rivals can evaluate better than football coaches. I would be interested if any college or NFL hired someone from 247 or Rivals to evaluate for them
So your analogy is incorrect.
Like with Caden Sterns. Great Safety. Will play in the NFL. But doesn't have the over the top athleticism that other Safties have that will be drafted higher than him.
Caden Sterns wasn't the #1 safety that year.
I already know. I am not the one freaking out over where 247 and Rivals has our recruits.
If a program bases their recruiting on where those recruiting sites have players they will fail.
Let's wait until the players get on campus and judge them.
Makes life difficult for our coaching staff
We expect Top 100 recruits. But often times players who aren't in the Top 100 are just as good.
So by demanding that we recruit a certain level of player we are only hurting ourselves. Because there are numerous examples of players who aren't in the Top 100, 300 or even Top 1000 who are playing on Sundays
I just want Sunday players regardless of their ranking
So therefore we should withhold judgement until the players are on campus.
Who knows with Brooks.
Who is to say Brooks isn't the #1 RB in the state or let alone the country.
So recruiting rankings after college are a lot more important than before college. Recruiting rankings are determine by the NFL draft.
