    Quinn Ewers made it cool again for high profile 5-star national recruits to go to Texas and we all should be forever grateful.  Although the circumstances and on field results are different, it’s not much unlike the effect James Brown had by making Texas “cool” in places and areas we hadn’t been so much (IYKYK)

    His transfer immediately legitimized Sark and paved the way for an influx of talent that accelerated our ascension by at least a year or two.

    Thanks for all of the above QE and go be one of the guys we always cheer for whether it’s on Sundays or when they show you on the big screen at DKR taking in a game 

    I also believe Quinn coming here enabled Arch to commit to us. Those in the know said Arch and family wanted him to red shirt. We had no one on the roster that would have been seen as a starter over Arch and Georgia probably wins the recruitment.

    Same is said by USA today but maybe they are all quoting a single made up number? If the information is accurate, however, it would make Ewers' decision to transfer an easy one.

    This seems relevant given some of the recent rumors:

     

     

     

    If Sark takes that job some day he will be interviewed about taking the Cowboys job and he will give the Saban answer about taking the Miami job. "I had a bad case of the dumbass".

  4. I hope Sark wakes up this morning knowing that as a coach he got this team so close but in the end when a team is playing for championships against equal talent it is the coach that makes the difference. The Bert pattern of missing field goals had been apparent all year and it cost the team an SEC championship game. Sark should have seen this coming and it should have been corrected it before that game.

    Sark started the season knowing that red zone offense was his biggest weakness since they finished ranked 89th as per surly poster in the prior year and finished ranked 111th this season. He knew what players he had, he knew their strengths and their weaknesses and yet he could not design a few play calls that would work even when the defense knew what was coming.

    To me I think Sark thought he had the element of surprise on the pitch out. Championship teams and championship coaches are never surprised Sark needs to start by assuming they always know what is coming and you are still going to be better because you have your players better prepared. In practice fucking tell your #1s what is coming and defend it like they would and and execute it until they can't stop it no matter how many times they try. If you can't get it to be successful then draw up the next play until you have the one that will work.

    And? Ketch is a fat fucking retard that doesn’t know shit about fuck. I’m embarrassed for you for admitting to listening to him

    So your strategy is not to admit to listening to him since clearly you had to listen to him to come to your conclusion. I agree with you by the way but when rubbing salt in the wounds one goes all out.

  6. On the drive down from Dallas today I listened to On Texas Football and Fat Ketch post games and Fat Ketch said something that is worse then what I thought happend. Last night I was talking about how Mackovic practiced roll left until it was perfect in case he needed it. I mentioned that Sark did nothing of the sort only to have Ketch say there is no way the sequence of plays that Sark called were not the best two plays in his bag and he probably had the team practice them repeatedly in case they found themselves on 1st and goal from the one.

    To his credit Sark did make some halftime adjustments and got the ball out of Ewers hands much quicker. Lot of quick throws to receivers and hoping they made plays one on one vs their defenders. More often than not they did and got decent yardage on first or second down. We’d be singing a much different tune about Sark if he had handled the goal line offense better. Unfortunately he didn’t and opens himself to a shit ton of criticism. Hopefully he’ll learn from this.

    It is not just the goal line calls. We get an interception and yes the quick throws have been working and what does Sark do to cash in on the interception? He runs it twice into the line and has to punt it back.

  8. Sark said his play call would have been a TD if his players would not have allowed players to leak through. The leaking had happen in 3 of the last 4 games if you include this one. Why would he expect that play would all of a sudden work? Instead we lose 6 yards. 
     

    He said prior play did not work but it seems to have gained a half yard (have not seen highlight in detail). If so give it a chane to gain you another since that is all you need. Fucking Sark😡

    The offense continuously stomped their own dicks in the ground. Then tied it and continued to stomp on their dick. Ewers is done at Texas. Good. We wasted a championship defense with a shitty offense that limped along until they tripped themselves. 

    Anybody blaming any of the players for this loss is full of it.

    a) Defense gets ball and momentum. Empty sets are working and fucking Sark runs into the line on first and second down and gives back the ball.

    b) Ohio State makes it clear that a pass will not get into the endzone since they will interfere every time and dare Sark to have the balls to run it in and Sark shows he has no balls.

    This shit is dumb. There’s only one national championship and it’s the one where they hand out the big gold trophy after the game is over. This de facto national championship shit is incredibly aggy.

    You were not around when 49ers were playing the Cowboys in NFC championship games and the AFC was providing the sacrificial lamb.
