I'm tempted to start a 12th Man++ Fund and set my salary as I see fit. I've run multiple 200M+ PE companies with a fraction of that staff. -

GD even for a$m, how the hell on Addazio? Wait, Jimbo ... Petrino, Durkin, etc nvm - it's like Saban rebuilding coaches but with ones that have huge character flaws that can't be changed. That coaching tree is going to profit. I do like their defensive line (all 20 of them or so) but roster mgmt ouch. Kinda got to have other positions and some depth. We could witness another comical year for aggy. A few injuries (never happens) and wow, they are in trouble. -

Yea, I was living in IL then. Pain meds for cracked ribs so part is hazy. Good correction sir. Thank you. -

Never got to meet Rojo or Bijan in person - but yea, you get it. We've all seen pictures but IRL it's like holy shit that dude is a monster! The amount of work and training those elite backs/players do is crazy. They are total freaks of nature. It's like a 32" waist with 32" thighs and wearing a 46 suit coat. Takes a big dude to knock LBs on their asses like Rojo and Bijan did. Hell, how many knockout's did Ricky have with his thighs - I know the last was against a$m when he set the rushing record. Agree on the no waiting for Rojo and family policy - should be a state law! -

and the old's may remember - every big win the James Brown songs on 6th street with sand volleyball and $1 beers. And the co-eds ... damn. SEC or whatever, I'd put UT talent up as a winner. Probably the Miss schools as seconds. -

hey, olders - we had Priest at RB, Octavious Bishop on OL and I think we had another clerical name? -

And thank you all for the NIL help. Sounds like it's bags for aggy and we are way out front in real deals. It's disclosed and we use our NIL as intended. If any of you are in the market for a new car, I'd suggest contacting that Volks dealership to see if they can source what you want. I certainly will but the old M3 has some miles to give. -

Solid info @NoName . I was in school from '91 to '97 (under and grad). Crossed paths with Mackovic weekly. Always liked the guy and he'd stop to talk with me every time. He asked me to go to the Sun Bowl when Priest Holmes totally went off. I regret not making that trip but I was there in the Alamo Bowl when he called that 4th down tight end pass and the last second field goal. If you guys haven't met a great RB in real life - wow - you wouldn't believe the size of their thighs. Ricky and Priest - jeez. Ricky couldn't find jeans to fit him - had to get a huge waist and have a ton taken in on it - just to fit his thighs. Priest was built the same. -

On the NIL topic, has aggy ever disclosed a deal? I've seen multiple articles about UT with cars, grocery products, video games, etc. I realize it's not the university putting these in place, but with no disclosure the entire concept of marketing NIL goes away. Hell, I'm contacting that Volks dealer to source my next car. That dealership did some solid NIL work for us. -

I have to believe the Luccidites are some 16-30 types with no real degrees. Their conspiracy theories, to self delusional fantasies they propagate on us and us controlling the media are beyond crazy. Sark may not be our perfect coach, neither was Mack. Sark is filling my wish list on recruits, now he needs to get a 10 win season. He's in year 3 (not year 5 of Jimbo's failure). If Petrino brings anything to that team it will be some semblance of roster management. I think they will improve on offense, not much. Petrino is a hell of a lot better on leading a team than Jimbo. Maybe it works for them? There has to be a more rational fan base for them, maybe not ... thinking back to my visits to that hellhole for games. I've never seen anything as delusional as the Luccidites. Honestly, it's worth a book on comparing them to how Hitler owned Germany. -

Aggy NIL for local candy store. They are getting closer to figuring it out. -
2023 Texas Coaching and Support Staff Thread
hornlife replied to RaysBoomBoomRoom's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Solid insight, thank you. Goes with most of what I guessed. Davis, Flood, Banks, and PK/Choate really seem to be the keys to me. It has really hurt us shifting DC's (entire staffs) every few years. Y2 under PK - Ford and others really progressed. Y3 for Ford should be a treat to watch. Learning and recruiting towards a specific system is huge imo. Hoping we retain the nucleus of this staff for years. @texifornia, I'll give you I forgot LT but anyone screaming that Dalton is memorable or anything but maybe approaching average is crazy. His career QBR etc shows average to below average. Yes, he somehow got a few pro bowls early in his career with a 50ish QBR. Outside the state of Texas and I bet 50% or more in the state of Texas, TCU is a complete unknown geographically or for anything to most sports fans. UT, USC - different story. Davey O'Brien? Yep, he went to TCU spent most of his career as a back-up until his senior year (a good year). Spent 2 years iirc in the NFL all sometime in the late 1930's. A foundation awards a trophy with his name on it. Puts TCU on the map ... totally. Maybe Duggan will. I'm not against the school, it's probably a decent college. But a talented football athlete that can choose between UT, USC, TCU - there's one in that list that doesn't belong. But you do you and proclaim the TCU might and that people even know where it is (they don't), their huge NFL HOF list and roster of players, etc. They don't belong in the same conversation as UT or USC for football by any known metric. I did think Milwee had some type of OC/co-OC title for pay reasons, my bad on that. -

I thought Milwee was OC or Co-OC? And I get that Sark is our real OC. I know it's a positive sign to have coaches recruited away, but I hope we hold this staff for years. Very solid staff. -

I get that TCU played in the title game and got properly ass raped. Why a talented or smart young person would ever choose TCU over UT or USC is beyond me. Outside of Texas and probably most in Texas, no one even knows where TCU is - that degree would be worthless in Atlanta, TN, Colorado, IL, etc. - all places I've lived and a UT education is known. NFL, name a famous TCU player without research. I can't. I'd slap the shit out of my son if he could go to UT or USC free and picked TCwho?
