The biggest mistake, by far, I’ve ever made in my career managing ~100 people is letting sentiment get in the way and trying to work around and scaffold Rube Goldberg machines to try to make substandard people as productive as I need or want them to be, rather than have honest and difficult conversations and just do the things that need to be done to make the organization better.
There is a reason that sociopaths like Meyer and Saban have so much success playing checkers, while most human beings do stupid stuff like pay Tre or LL and try to (usually unsuccessfully) mitigate their weaknesses.
Maybe Sark got some balls and is acting ruthless and they got shoved out the door, or maybe he just got lucky that in resetting their actual market value nature took its course, but we will be so much better if this continues to happen as a college football have. We have resource advantages over almost everyone. If we combine that with ruthlessly accurate decision making we won’t fail to succeed.
My shitty management instincts always got in the way of me making anything I had control over excellent. Instead, I had enough positive traits I could improve where I was at bc I have some inherent talent for big picture strategy and goal setting and direction, but it wasn’t like I was great at anything I did because of these failings.
I didn’t start having lots of success in my career until I started managing nobody under me (not even managing myself) and just doing what I was good at. Then, I ended up in the top 100 nationally in my career.
Texas is absolutely capable of squandering all our financial and resource advantages. It looks like we won’t. Celebrate. And I will say this if a certain WR moves on as well.
All hail creative destruction.
thats certainly a lot of words.

What we need is for pussy posters to check their tampons and quit bleeding every time something happens that they perceive to be bad.
You bled all over the board after Florida because OU was going to murder us. You bled all over the board because A&M was going to murder us. You’re bleeding all over the board because of portal news. Take your emotions out of it.
We’re Texas. This version of CFB works in our favor. Keep stacking talent and we’ll continue competing at the highest level. 2025 happened because our staff managed the roster and season like a gaggle of betas. Now is the time to re-stock talent and we have more ammo to do it than anyone else.
you stupid fuck that game cost us the playoffs
