  1. Yep, went back to same old bullshit. Was exacerbated by their idiotic decision to have Conner at guard instead of the stronger and bigger Collins and for some crazy reason they left Conner on an island today to get worked like a low rent Houston hooker. That performance was so bad it's the kind that kills confidence in a rookie.
  2. Kip Keno got arrested for embezzling half a million? Holy shit, does everyone Norm worship end up being giant pieces of shit? I know he's a "Hall of famer" but Norm is absolutely radio trash to me. His football takes are ignorant even though he speaks as if he's an expert (calling a LB in nickel set a Mike? Really?) and he gets self righteous about criminal pieces of shit like Bliss because they claim to love the Jesus.
  3. Ruining the best thing your station does to play the generic ramblings of a terrible coach is a bad bit.
  4. Depends. Do they go back to not using any motion, horizontal action to freeze LBs and DEs, QB run game, misdirection, built in feints, and playaction? Go back to predictable routes and play calling patterns like bootlegs on the first play of a series? If so then yes. With this staff no one knows. They already found this formula on a single drive against Houston to score their lone TD then completely abandoned it until today. Dak is a completely different QB and the OL is a lot better when plays are designed to make defenses: 1) spread out, 2) second guess different action and motions causing hesitation.
  5. They incorporated them a ton in his rookie year. Even during this past game on the lone drive they scored a TD they utilized a lot of misdirection and fakes to make the defense have to worry about overpursuing and it opened things up enough for them to get in the end zone. Dak even looked a whole lot more comfortable running that style of offense and was sharp on that one drive. Then they inexplicably abandoned the whole thing the rest of the game and went back to their simple curl routes and outs and predictable play calling patterns. Dak has shown he's a beast in the QB running game and he's great at executing fakes and misdirection in the plays, yet this staff is too stupid to base the offense around what he does at an elite level. It's like Garrett saw Aikman dominate in a style of drop back offense and believes that's the only way to win at QB even though 20 years of post Aikman data and even Aikman himself say otherwise.
  6. I don't know how many people look at the other board so I'll put this here too: if anyone wants to go to the game in Stillwater later this month I've got 7 tickets I'm trying to sell for under face value. PM me Oh, and fuck Gundy for that bitch ass censorship.
  7. Romo was a very good QB but he did have the "choker gene" so to speak. Too many times when the season was on the line in a win or go home scenario he either outright threw it away with fumbles/picks or he didn't raise his game above regular season level to where he needed to be to close out games in the playoffs. Love the dude as a commentator but anyone who thinks at age 36 after being repeatedly broken and repeatedly showing he wasn't a big game performer he was just going to lead the team to a title is insanely delusional. You'd think a fanbase that had seen major big game performers at the position like Aikman and Staubach along with a ton of games against another guy with the choke gene (although not as bad as Romo's) in McNabb would be able to recognize the difference. Romo's playing career has been dead since January of 2015. Move on already and talk about Romo the game broadcaster. That's his true calling and where he really shines. If he keeps it up for a long time he'll make the Hall of Fame for his broadcasting contributions alone.
  8. Hurt financially? No Probably destroy the locker room after he called the captains snitches, called Lee a snake, called out Frederick, and called out Linehan? Yeah. If he hadn't acted like a 15 yr old bitch during his time here and on his way out he would have probably already signed back here for cheap.
  9. Have 2 together just came available in section 112 row 11. $175 each. Pm if interested
  10. Have 7 Tix for the OSU road game. Section 228 4 of them are in row 29 and 3 in row 30. The row 29 seats are directly in front of the row 30 so all 7 can sit together if someone wants to go in a group. Face is $97 per but will sell for $90 per to get a nice round number. I will be at the fair early Saturday so can meet there to sell if someone who's going wants them. Pm if interested. Also have hotel rooms in Broken Arrow, OK at Stoney Creek Hotel that will have to cancel so maybe we can transfer the reservation if someone needs the rooms. 3 rooms at $105 per night for Friday and Saturday nights.
  11. I tried to tell all these cheese dicks this shit was going to make Watergate look like a parking ticket. Some people, **cough twicehorn**, can't see more than 2 feet in front of their faces. http://www.shaggytexas.com/board/showthread.php/182577-Indictments-Pending-in-the-Robert-Mueller-Investigation/page24
  12. Yep because those shitty offensive players, as shitty as they were, were very familiar with the attributes of that style of offense because they were similar to the atttributes of spread offenses almost all of those guys ran in HS. They could pick it up quickly. That 2016 offense MADE Connor Williams. If we had promoted Gilbert to HC for say 2.3 million a year and went out and got a bad ass D coordinator to do what Orlando has done we'd be a much better offense and team that we are now. Not saying we should have done that but if we did we'd have a pretry good offense right now. I think even Ehlinger's shitty ass would be a lot better in that system.
  13. Difference is they didn't allow defenses to play 3 LBs and stack 7 to 8 in the box the way Herman's allowed Maryland to do. They forced you to go nickel and match up wide to each boundary allowing their line to play more to their strengths. It's the same thing Gilbert did in 2016 that allowed a 2000 us rusher with inferior talent on the line and at QB. It doesn't matter if you zone or man block if you're giving these linemen the looks and scheme they know and have been executing for years. I just brought up zone blocking because it's what Herman uses and it tends to be more complicated and require more athletic linemen. This current offense would look just as shitty in a man blocking scheme.
  14. Not a ton of HSs run the veer but the concepts fit what almost all big Texas HS programs do run: spread out defenses, allow your QBs simple reads against these defenses, and not asking linemen to line up against heavy boxes and power block whether zone or man. It's not one set system. It's finding a system that incorporates the attributes the players you are bringing in are already trained to do. It's not just me spouting this off. The proof is there. It's how OU switches out linemen, QBs, receivers, etc and keeps running out 10+ win seasons and conf titles. They aren't trying to change every new recruiting class into something they aren't.
  15. It's won a lot of conference titles and had teams playing for NCs. OU souls have had one last year if they weren't saddled with Mike Stoops' horrible defense. A place with the national pull of Texas has never committed to it. You pair offense that fits the linemen and QBs your recruiting grounds produce with the talent UT can put on defense and you start to have something.
  16. You don't have to run air raid. OU doesn't run air raid. There's no reason to reinvent the wheel here. Look what OU does that has them plaYing in the playoffs. Look what Briles did that almost had Baylor of all tiny shitty schools playing in the playoffs. We did it for one year and it outperformed the horrible talent level we trotted out on offense. But then we stupidly said fuck this and hired a guy who wants to trot out 11 personnel and power zone block with lineman who can't do it. All because he was Mack's GA and the flavor of the month
  17. Remember he's dealing with 18 to 21 yr old kids. Kids who are millennials with short attention spans and also have a lot of class time and other strains on their attention. In a lot of ways the offensive line problem is more than just learning. Most of these guys just weren't brought up to be power blocking mailers knowing complicated zone concepts. The upper Midwest and SEC states produce those guys like crazy but Texas just doesn't. That's why you see those guys getting drafted out of SEC schools and places like Wisconsin, ND, and Ohio St
  18. Or, you do like Stoops established a decade ago and run offense that these kids have already been training in for 4 to 7 years before you ever get them on campus. It's not rocket science. Let the HS coaches be your farm system.
  19. It also asks a lot more of the QB than these Texas HS QBs are used to and, to put it bluntly, asks more than a kind of dim witted kid like Ehlinger needs to be doing.
  20. He calls it a "pro style spread" but it incorporates a lot more pro style power running zone blocking concepts that our Texas HS OL just don't usually run these days. It uses a lot of 11 personnel with the in-line TEs that allow defenses to stack the box more than we need with this line.
  21. Said this when strong was here. Saying it again now. This program will continue to suck until they stop trying to fit these HS players who almost all grew up in various spread systems into these power running type of offenses. It will never work. For proof look no farther than the inbreds up north. Around the mid 2000s Stoops took a look around and saw that his big recruiting bases were all high schools running various spread systems. He then adapted and turned his program around to match and it's worked like a boss ever since and has continued with a spread guy in Riley. Look at what happened at Baylor in the late 2000s. They looked around and grabbed one of the early adopters/innovators of a form of spread offense. Within a few seasons Briles had them winning the conference and contending for a NC. At fucking Baylor. That's how powerful it is. Even in our own program take a look at 2016. In only 1 season where Strong, 2 years too late, went out and got a spread guy to run that offense. With no QB worth a shit and a completely shit OL that offense put up 492 total yards per game and produced a 2000 yd rusher. With no QB and a shit line. That team had a shit defense and just didn't have the talent on either side to make up for Strong's shit coaching, but they had finally matched the offensive system to what Texas HS QBs, OL, RBs, and receivers have been doing since junior high and it showed. The talent level is getting better but won't matter and no 10+ win season will ever happen again until this program takes a cue from the dirt burglars and stops trying to establish gold mines while sitting on a mountain full of diamonds.
  22. Chaz Green is one of those people in the commercials that likes walking into glass doors and spilling coffee all over himself.
