Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - This Is Fine
Professor Chesney replied to closetojumping's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
It goes further, there must have been a fundamental problem with how we practiced or chose to run practice that hid the issues. It wasn’t just the $9.95ers. Former players and guests who visited practice saw nothing wrong. Casey Studdard was telling anyone who could listen how mean and impressive the line looked. When your practice isn’t identifying what can go wrong, then you aren’t practicing the right way. I just hope there’s some oversight or self-scouting system in place to correct these systematic issues, versus Sark just chalking everything up to bad luck and continuing to think he knows better than everyone while dm’ing Dallas milfs on instagram.- 1395 replies

This explains why they didn’t go after Estrada, the totally superior Minnesota RB commit from El Paso who might be one of the best prospects in the nation. It is the only explanation that makes sense.- 1395 replies

2025 Tailgate Planning, Budgeting and Fundraising [Updated end 2025]
Professor Chesney replied to immamac's topic in Football
Were any of the games a positive cash flow? I know it’s harder to determine that with season sales, but curious to see which games at least left a good impression on you. One issue I ran into with sponsorships was the “Surly” label and getting that past our marketing department. It was easier to just buy and expense tickets for group and clients. Being under the Burnt Ends or On Texas label might be a work around. -
Thanks for setting up! Just got 5 tickets to support. Probably don’t need a ton of extra beer as we’ll bring some of our own to contribute. its weird but a lot of school and company tailgates are targeting the Arkansas weekend. This one seems way better given the matchup and the weather

Did some people have a bad experience? Maybe, sure, whatever. Plenty of water vendors in sections 115-112 but YMMV. But overall the renovations worked wonders for the most important issue: getting people in and out of the stadium quickly. For proof, look at how full the stands were before the start of the game. In previous years, it took me 30-40 minutes to get to my seat, sometimes missing kickoff. This year, probably 10-15; legitimately did not know what to do with all of the free time. And judging by how full the stands were 5-10min before kickoff, my experience was not unique.

This is exactly the play that I come back to as sign of improvement. From our vantage point in the stadium, we were sure it was yet another short yardage failure as Wisner tripped and fell into the back of the O lineman. Was shocked to see that our line had already pushed OU 3 yards back. That hasn’t happened at all this season before the third quarter.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Professor Chesney replied to closetojumping's topic in Football
He’s okay in straight pass pro simply by virtue of being enormous. He got whipped on a stunt against SJSU, which is apparently what we ding Neto for. The most infuriating/egregious issue in the run game is that he stops moving his feet at contact. This is something Flood should be teaching, so if Stroh isn’t doing it after 3 years he probably will never have the coordination to do it effectively. Neto must be a liability in practice if we aren’t seeing him. -

Lmao “matchup.” I don’t know what’s funnier, the gymnastics performed to avoid calling this the “shocking upset” that it actually was, or pretending like the recruits witnessing the “matchup” in person is somehow a positive. -
Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Professor Chesney replied to closetojumping's topic in Football
Completely different teams, but one game in support of your theory was that “upset” of Kansas state late in 2022. Despite having Bijan and Roschon, the running game never really clicked all year as we kept trying different schemes/styles. Eventually Sark either gave up or discovered the OLine “clicked” with outside zone, and we proceeded to spam outside zone for approximately a billion yards to win the game. -
You’re a heart attack monster, Tex.

While that rep looked silly, we don’t know the exact assignment on the call and he did create enough of a push/delay so that the DT was out of the play. That said, this is not the type of news we want to hear the week before the season starts. If Stroh was actually “turning heads” instead of just being a slightly less worse option, we would have heard more chatter about it, similar to Graceson Littleton at star.
-
Do these writers know something we don’t about the quality of the offensive line? It’s so hard to tell if local beat writers are making good observations vs blinded by homerism and constant success. Your expensive transfer tackle from Rice that was supposed to start at LT but might lose the RT competition somehow “isn’t a concern” and you’ll have the best OL ever? If that happened here this board would be shitting itself (more than usual) and ready to cancel the season.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Professor Chesney replied to closetojumping's topic in Football
Just talked with a former OL who has sat in on multiple practices, and he is drinking all of the koolaid. Pretty much what we’ve been hearing but it’s good to get more confirmation from a non $9.95er - the interior o-line is what he was most excited about, using the words “nasty disposition for the first time in years”. Actually getting good push, and be thinks we have strong backups. - Tackles have looked solid. Nick Brooks is the truth. - tackle depth is his only concern.- 8086 replies
