Since Sark has been here its been a problem. I will be honest for a minute here. I've been talking shit on this thread to a few people who were very loud last year. However, the reality is that we've sucked in the interior in the Sark era. Bijan and Rojo made their own yards. Brooks was good at that too. In pass pro the LG has been an issue for a long time too. Last year whenever we played quality fronts we couldn't get a push at all. Even Arizona St was stoning us up front, and blowing up our OZ with penetration. I'm beyond baffled because it's carried over so many different dudes. It simply hasn't mattered who we've put there the problems have persisted.
Well there is only one constant and it is Flood. Gerry talks about him at Alabama as a way to excuse Flood but I don't think he either recruited or had a final say on who got recruited to play OL at Alabama. These are his guys and his pupils and they suck. Finally Coach Shipley put Gerry in his place by saying the OL is all Flood's fault because he is either not teaching them to deal with the stunts they are seeing or his recruiting guys that can do what he wants them to do.

Haha. Didn’t Sark only coach there a year and a half? And when he was under Carrol they had some of the best defenses in the country. What the fuck does that mean? Or is he throwing Nansen under the bus?
He was not talking USC under Sark he was talking USC now.
-
Cubelic said he saw a little of USC defensive culture in Texas defense. He noticed guys doing the fun stuff but unwilling to do the hard stuff like setting the edge against two blockers.
-
So much for hope then again wasn't Greg Robinson hired as an analyst before Manny was fired. Hopefully we see a quick improvement like we saw then not that Flood is fired but maybe the new guy is given more of a chance to make a difference after what we saw in Florida.

It took you an hour to come up with that?
Someone thinks they are in a chat room and not a message board. The IQ on this one is through the roof.

Well alright, you get it now! Just lick the cum off of his balls when your done.
It takes someone that knows what they are doing to explain it to others. Well done Farmer Vincent.

.... QB overshadows it all, he is still not getting the heat he deserves. He may be a good kid but he needs to man up, he is letting his team down.
Tell me you did not watch the game without telling me you did not watch the game.

Sark tried to fill in the gaps with the portal. He brought in a punter, a place kicker, a tightend and a backup QB with game experience - in case Arch missed a couple of games. He tried to cover all his bases, and get this team to the NC game. There was no way for Sark to know Manning was a head case and would wilt under the pressure like a little girl. I think the whole team would be playing better, incuding the OL, if they had not lost confidence in their QB.
So OL is a sieve and now they have lost confidence in their QB because he does not run away from free incoming pressure 100% of the time.

I don't have the budget to cover the tab at the pool, we can still show up at the bar if y'all want. Let me know what we want to do.
If we spend anywhere close to 750 they will open the pool for us anyway, I just won't be fronting the tab this year after this weekend...sorry
No need to be sorry, it would not surprise me if you are way more resilient than most on this board after what happened this last weekend.

Also, Sark - why the fuck are you dialing up slow developing plays when you know the fucking line can't block!
There are two reasons:
1) He is stubbornly optimistic and thinks that things will work on the next play because he saw it work in practice.
2) He sucks at in game adjustments.
It took him about five games to give up on Ewers throwing deep when the in-game evidence showed it wasn't going to work. Sark has to sit down and take time to think before making an adjustment. He talks about the flow of the game influencing his decision-making, but to the rest of us, it's clear he's oblivious to the flow of the game, evident in not taking points, throwing deep, and pitching the ball on 2nd down.

Watched the press conference and Sark has no answers on how to fix things. He's usually coy about what will happen next because he expects things to get fixed, but not this time. Today, he just said we need to coach better and play better. Although he did hint at what needs to be done to beat OU. He said that no one has made OU's defense pay for being so aggressive. Well, with no OL, how do you make them pay is what Sark has to figure out? My money is on him being optimistic that the OL will do better and he'll create the ultimate game plan to beat OU, only to have it go to shit as he acts surprised that an OL that has played poorly for 5 games plays poorly during the 6th game.

I’ve been to every game since 1985 and only a small handful have been “fall like”. Most have been warm/pleasant and several legit hot. A couple of monsoons. But OU game does not conjure up memories of Autumn

The film guy says Flood recruits big humans with no athleticism and that is why they are always holding against SEC teams with a pulse.

Cross posting. Many here probably know that with no OL we are not going anywhere this year. This just puts a punctuation on why we lost two semifinals with the game on the line. Some guy from Washington penetrated way to quickly and need I bring up Ohio State.
-
For those who think the QB is the issue or a change is going to fix anything. Starts at 6:37 ends at 14:49 but at 14:01 he drills into the bad play calling by Sark.

Wisdom. Arch is in Sark's system for 3ish years. He really isn't special. We all hoped he was but, nope. As @BurntOrange&White said. Sometimes shit needs to said and like a few here @BurntOrange&White says it.
But wait BO&W said Arch should start over Ewers since Ewers was our problem. Now he says Arch is our problem. The wisdom that guy has is unmatched.

This thread will continue to grow but our MAIN problem the last two years has not been the QB. It is our OL being dominated by teams with a pulse. 11 attempts for 14 yards by RBs should get any team beat regardless of QB. The second problem is Sark developed good QBs when his job was OC and that was his only job. Ewers and Arch both have shown bad fundamentals that is no longer just on them and it is a systemic problem. So much for a season in which Sark had to take it to the next level.

It'll be interesting to see if Texas is even ranked tomorrow.
They will but they shouldn't, after UTEP they should have been between 15 and 20. Now they are out of there and can join Clemson.
