For context: This was last season where many felt Florida could make the playoff even if they lost to Bama in a close game in the SEC title match. They then shit the bed against LSU the week before and lost in part because of the above legendary play. Since then Florida has been a fucking dumpster fire with just staggeringly inconsistent play leading up to the Mullen firing today.

Waive Sark's buyout and dangle him in front of their AD by a crane on a comically oversized fishing hook. Then hire Aranda. Easy.

Ewers or Bust- Lord have mercy I’m bout to bust

Greg Abbott would do better throwing from his chair -
I just hope our administration shows some goddamn spine for once and goes on the attack. Not directly, of course, but the identity of this player needs to be leaked as soon the season is over. Then you can have the pundits and analysts go through and post all the many reasons for which the roster changes made sense and were clearly not 'based on race'. If its Casey Thompson, for example, anyone with a sliver of rationality can understand the need to give Card one last final chance to seize the job late in the season before he inevitably entered the portal. As far as starting in the first place you have hundreds of reports out there about scrimmages and practices in which Thompson fucking blew to back up the original decision as well. You can't do the usual "we need to stay above it all" strategy with something this damning and toxic. It has to be directly addressed, at least through proxies, and attacked. edit: or if god forbid it is true then obviously you need to use this situation to expose the BMDs once and for all and blacklist them. I know CDC will balk at anything that damages the money faucet but either way you have to show action on this. Can't let it be yet another ghost story about the big bad powerful racists looming in the dark behind our program. Only so much of that you can overcome and we are fucking drowning in it already.

Jones is an attention seeking fuckwit and this behavior by him is despicable. "I don't want to be a detriment to the program"... but instead of waiting just one more fucking week till the season is over I'm going to lob this grenade into the coach's laps. When they are trying to keep the trust and focus of these kids? Not to mention doing it just a few weeks before early signing period. You already have a fuck ton of recruits, including some of our biggest targets, a bit wary of the EOT and other bullshit chatter. Now you validate those concerns with this vague accusation and give every rival coach their neg recruitment wetdream. It is just pure idiocy. I've seen some of you suggest that perhaps this was being done at the behest of coaches or others within the program who've tried to get things to change but failed.. that doesn't make any sense. It is the timing. There is just no fucking way anyone whose career actually is staked on Texas succeeding would ever want it to come out in this haphazard a way or to come out now. If this had been leaked to The Athletic or some other credible journalists in late February, along with a call to action and demands being made of our university leadership to excise those involved... then yeah. Sure. But the way this was handled? Hell no. In the very least you take it up the ladder to CDC, Hartzell and others first and force them to take a stance. If they then handle the situation and remove all access from the BMDs involved... great. No need for a scandal. If not then you can put them on blast also and remove obstacles to supposedly needed change. This was an orchestrated hit by someone manipulating the fact that Jones is too fucking stupid to keep his mouth shut nor capable of releasing information like this in a way or at a time that would not simply immolate the program. What an absolute dipshit.

Nahlin said in that On3 podcast earlier that he didn't think Jaylon was a take for Texas. He skipped over him pretty quick but basically said despite his visiting this weekend he still felt the kid would end up at Tcu or Baylor because he felt Texas would prefer to use that potential spot on a transfer S instead. Maybe Hyphen let them know he is heading elsewhere and that opened a spot or maybe IT was just wrong /shrug

1 QB 9 OL and just pray that by sheer fucking luck at least a few of those guys can actually play at a non-shit level. Real answer is probably 1 QB, 1 WR, 4 OL, 1 edge (if you can get someone established; otherwise 3 OL and 2 edge), 2 LB, 1 S. If we land Stewart, as increasingly unlikely as that might be, I still think we need at least one more WR considering how injury prone Jwhit is. I really like Thompson and Winfield but neither is going to probably make a huge difference their FR year.

Worthy breaking his ass on that slip would be peak 2021 Texas.

TCU becomes a better job without having to deal with Texas and OU in the conference. Especially when the Big 12 will likely remain the third best football conference in the country behind the SEC and BIG. Losing Texas is a non-factor and OU is being replaced with another playoff contender in Cinci. Then you add two teams frequently in the top 25 this past decade in BYU and UCF? Even Houston is on the way up with stability under Dana. Losing OU means they do not have that obvious tent pole program that will start every season in the top ~5-8, sure, but it also opens things up for everyone else to make more regular runs toward a conf title. Our departure makes a dent in their wallets but they've assembled an entertaining package of teams who should have no trouble regularly putting their champ into an expanded 8 team playoff. Conversely SMU is kind of fucked moving forward due to the alignment shuffle.
-
I want to dismiss this by saying anyone too bad to see the field at that position this year, with who is actually playing, will not be missed.. FR or not. Yet considering how fucking inept our defensive coaching staff has been (especially with personnel usage) I am definitely not going to automatically assume fault is with the player. Sounds like he might be headed to Ole Miss to join Hutzler.
-
The solution is simple. We lock Sark into a small room with the monkey, now having developed a taste for human flesh, and we don't open the door until nature has taken its course. Then we turn around and go full fucktard like Aggy and offer 150M fully guaranteed over the next 12 years to Matt Rhule. Finally we hire a street gang to kidnap what I assume to be the 20-30 pet cats Plonsky has and hold them hostage until the bitch rubber stamps any and every asinine corrupt as fuck hire and/or NIL program we can think up.

Texas Football 2021 In-Season Thread: Can we get a redo?
HateYouAndMyself replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Football
Literally this past winter?? We wanted Raymond, and had a very good shot at landing him, but compliance went full retard and blocked it over concerns that he would get pulled into that rape cover up scandal at LSU. Some on here have continually backed that decision and I will continue to call them fucking pussies. Its not like we couldn't have just fired Raymond after the fact if he actually got any of that dirt thrown his way. Having Raymond on board alone would have locked up Harris for certain, probably Anderson and Mathews and given us a very real shot at fighting Coombs for Brooks in the 2022 class alone. Texas has this absurd fucking guideline about not allowing the hiring of any coach or staff member that is even tangentially involved in an active ongoing investigation. You think PK fucking blows as DC? We wanted Pruitt. That was Sark's top choice. He didn't give the tiniest of fucks about the scandal (and I would point out the NCAA still has not hit Pruitt with a show cause and likely never will) but we literally couldn't hire him because some bullshit guidelines that our administration actually gives teeth. Same deal with the like ~3 top choices of Sark for director of recruiting (and Harris has done a fairly abysmal job in the role). We need compliance to be put in their fucking place and a lot of these antiquated red tape guidelines to be torn the hell up. They were mostly put in place by dickhead Ivy league twats that hate sports anyway. The current reality of college athletics is that short of posting videos of you handing bags of cash to players on twitter you are essentially untouchable. I'm not even saying Sark SHOULD have hired Raymond, or Pruitt, or any of the various ultra shady DOR candidates.. but he wanted to and wasn't allowed. So yes our head coaches, even in football, are at times handcuffed. edit: I just remembered that thanks to Burnt Ends we have literally posted video of us handing bags of cash to players. NIL is wild. I guess I need a new analogy. -
Texas Recruiting Notes 2023: Strippers, Monkeys, and 5-Stars
HateYouAndMyself replied to Machinator's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Yep. How we close out this recruiting class and especially how we address clear needs in the portal are going to be more important for landing Arch than however these remaining games play out. Same thing with how Sark handles coaching staff changes this winter. They will want to see evidence that Sark is making the necessary changes to make us more competitive but I don't think they give two rat fucks about how we are currently playing. The exception of course being if we just absolutely shit the bed, lose 3 of the next 4, and become such a dumpster fire that no one will want to transfer or sign here. But even then it would be more about the future looking bleak than having anything to do with us collapsing week after week against top 15 teams. -
If you want to be a simpleton and pretend like advanced measurables can quantify the very real impact of consistently having to play and adjust to competent offensive coordinators than so be it. As you put it that would certainly be an excruciatingly lazy and uninformed take. The normalized stats suggest that he did a good job at Washington, and he did, but they can not quantify the greater context of the lack of competency that he was facing on the opposing side lines. He simply was not challenged with any regularity as he has been this season and its resulting in a string of games in which he is very clearly being out coached. There is a cumulative effect when you play coaches able to exploit your flawed play calls and failed adjustments week after week, each able to take advantage of the additional information gained on your tendencies and personnel. Then you have the greater context of Lake's increasing role at Washington, including being given play calling duties.. and you want to pretend like that is not perhaps a major red flag? Considering what we are seeing each and every week now? We were sold on the 'it was just to keep Lake happy' narrative but maybe they just internally figured out that he fucking blows at in-game adjustments against any halfway decent coach? Washington was able to show up big in a few OOC games but so did Herman. I really like PK's scheme in theory but holy shit he is basically a boxer just crying and covering his face at this point while the opposing teams destroy him with body shots.

You fire him out of a cannon and into the fucking sun if you can get Muschamp or Lanning but both are EXTREME longshots. Better chance that one of those two ends up Bama and the other remains at Georgia DC role. I am really curious what would happen if Saban drops Golding though... that was Sark's choice behind Muschamp/Lanning/Quinn. Golding isn't really up to that 'Bama standard' but I would prefer him to PK to be perfectly honest. There are just so many unknowns around PK considering the relatively dogshit teams they faced 90% of the time in the PAC and his sharing so many duties with Lake for much of his tenure. edit: I agree with what someone said earlier. Unless you can find an actually elite guy, which is very unlikely, you just make sure to hire a Co-DC who is a proven entity / defensive playcaller just in case this fucking mess continues into year 2.
-
Raymond seems set to stick around for at least one season under whoever the new coach is at LSU and go from there. There are still some other excellent DB coaches we can and should kick the tires on. My first call would be Karl Scott (current Vikings CB coach who spent prior two years at Bama) and make absolutely goddamn sure he is loving the NFL and see if money could sway him back to college ranks.
-
I doubt he will decommit until he is ready to directly flip to another program. From what I know of the kid and the people around him they are savvy enough to likely avoid the potential 'decommit from Texas, Tucker goes to LSU where you are potentially not a take and then Texas doesn't want you back' scenario. I expect someone from the DL group to break first (maybe Aaron Bryant?).

Players on this team who should NEVER be starting:
HateYouAndMyself replied to GreenspointTexas's topic in Football
The lack of usage of Wiley blows my fucking mind. Maybe he can't catch a damned thing in practice but he seems to be reliable in actual games / scrimmages that fans and writers have access to. Dude is the single biggest mismatch we can create on the field next to only Worthy's raw speed and he is MIA every red zone trip. -
I came here specifically to question whether the same sunshine pumping smooth brains would try to peddle their "Early playing time!" "Recruits don't care about results like fans do" nonsensical bullshit.. and two examples were already waiting. Get a fucking grip. Both of you. Those same kids could play right away at Kansas or a hundred other toilet teams in the country. Texas has become an absolute joke again amongst recruits. Few things are more damaging to a program than becoming a meme and we are getting fucking roasted in group chats and texts between recruits right now in a way we haven't seen since the Strong era (and that isn't speculation). Early playing time will help up us with JAGs but the elite talent can go play early at plenty of other programs not fun by an incompetent dipshit. EARLY PLAYING TIME IS NOT APPEALING IF YOU THINK YOU ARE GOING TO BE POORLY DEVELOPED AND LOSE 4-5 GAMES A FUCKING YEAR.
-
The fact that Aggy is actively in talks trying to buy Stewart at the moment isn't an assumption. The fact that Winfield wants to play for Tucker, but isn't wild about playing so far from home at Michigan St, is also not an assumption (he has told people close to him). If you can't put two and two together and guess what will happen when Tucker is suddenly coaching at LSU you are even more of a fucktarded smooth brained cunt than you normally look. Personally I think Winfield stays in this class and we land Stewart but hedging against those two outcomes is exactly why we are now talking with the new WR.. which is the question that was being addressed.
-
There are reasons to feel confident with Stewart right now but the kid has completely flipped things around twice already and now Aggy are getting involved with the usual bag bullshit so its best to consider him a coin toss. I think it has more to do with Winfield; I don't see him bailing for Michigan St... but if Tucker gets the LSU gig as many expect will happen? Yeah he gone.
