  1. whew just in time, I was about to hit the buy button. thanks, I owe you one.
  2. pay me the money!!!!!
  3. there is a chance this time is different but Texas football hires have not been nearly as successful as the other sports. comparing UT baseball, volleyball, women's basketball, swimming and diving, soccer, track and the others to football doesn't usually play out. men's basketball is very much a TBD here as well. I think CDC is great, but he hired sark so..... yeah what he said.
  4. that's no fun, come on.
  5. yeah he seems so fucking checked out in terms of process and results. and the AD is fucking silent. BMD too. if he is gone this year there's going to be some nasty leaks that follow i'm sure. the question is who does CDC nab? it's a crowded field, despite the media saying Texas money whips folks, the history of it all suggests otherwise, we're pretty conservative on pay at least initially. and frankly CDC has owned the minor sports, but FB is totally different, so I'm not convinced we hire well on the next go round.
  6. He showed up talking the talk in year 1-3 and had the results to evidence it wasn't all talk... But I've already stated his current state is very suspect and hints at a possible relapse. I'm on record that he needs to change now or GTFO. While i'm not in recovery nor an addict I'm very familiar with the addict or better stated for high functioners... the substance dependent personality. He's definitely showed signs of use.
  7. I am and I'm familar with the ant and the grasshopper and the tortoise and the hare, but I also believe that humans have a more complex brain structure than a scorpion or a frog, or an ant or a grasshopper, or a tortoise or a hare. I believe in the ability to change and in redemption, though the success stories are not as common as the failures, there are plenty of such success stories and the pathway out of this mess for sark is for him to realize his identity is not in the play calling but as the HC and that if his goal is to have a championship caliber program he has to be the HC not the OC. I think everything needed for him to change is in this mix, the only question is whether his ego blinds him or if his own story as he tells it is true and he changes to be the HC the program needs instead of the OC the program needs to replace.
  8. it's pretty simple really. sark has done a fine job getting us to almost, and underperforming at a 3 loss level. both of those are pretty good even by texas standards. the question is can he take it another step and beat Georgia and Ohio State. I dunno. most of us dunno. Many of us, no most of us think not. what sark has to do is change. he claims to be a humble guy, who is self-reflective, always looking in the mirror, but this year we see none of that. if he has a come to jesus with himself and we see real change then maybe he can be the guy, but the guy walking the sidelines right now has zero chance of winning the square root of jack shit at Texas. the good news is it appears he stopped eating his boogers so maybe there is hope. but it remains the same... change or GTFO.
  9. I agree UGA and Ohio St are a notch or two better than Texas in player quality. But in the portal and NIL “no rules” era Texas should be better.
  10. When the game was tight they absolutely put their weight into the game. A few hold and no hold calls the no call on the DPI. It only took a span of 5 mins of game time influence but it happened.
  11. Dammit I was thinking of heading to the guad Thanksgiving day. Shitfuck.
  12. Arkansas is like 10 points total all season from having a record like Texas. I’d put it at 50% chance they win. This is not a slam dunk win.
  13. He’s a bitch, we’re his bitch. That’s a whole lotta bitches.
  14. With that hair cut? Wine coolers is my bet. Zima probably. He probably misses Bartles & James everyday.
  15. If your coaches aren’t being poached for other schools they aren’t any good.
  16. He’s a kid that doesn’t know anything. We only keep him around because of the avatar. he’s maxed out on lexapro.
  17. I put all of mine in one post. What the fuck were we thinking? I wish he would act like that instead of acting like this
  18. I don’t know why we thought a guy who ate his boogers on tv, wearing skinny pants with no facial hair who squats when he’s stressed and lets his wife dress him would ever win anything. What the heck were we thinking.
  19. OU I’m not all that impressed with Vandy. We’ll see maybe Vandy proves to be a team worth a shit but they haven’t beaten anyone.
  20. Look at the records of teams behind Texas, Texas is being treated like a two loss team (highest ranked 3 loss team and ahead of several two loss teams), a two loss team that has only one really good win and a bunch of trash wins, a blow out to Georgia and a loss at Florida.
  21. Anyone thinking Arkansas can’t come in here and win by two scores has not been paying attention and is probably like 22 years old. This is a fucking trap week.
