I wonder if headset guy said something to him?  That was a weird 0-100 otherwise

 

Nah. Sark has weird fake hyped up energy before the team goes on the field. He did the same corny shit before TCU and we saw how that went. 

If you're winning, no one cares about how big of an asshole you are or stupid suits you wear from the Burger King Corporate Retreat collection. When you're mediocre, it's a bigger deal.

The shit before TCU game reminded me of Tom Herman head butting players before 2019 Baylor game.

Sark was obviously going to be insecure after two years of us making fun of his man tits.  Headset guy got what he deserved for tripping an obvious trigger.  Non story.
Nothing more than choreographed fake tough guy bullshit. Trying to get his team hyped. None of them cared and it didn't make a shit for the result on the field. Corny stuff.

To be clear, I’m not “counting” on Sark regularly winning 10 games a year. As I said, that is my optimistic scenario for him if he accumulates enough talent, and that scenario is still on the table after this year. It’s not like I’ve bet the rent money on that happening, and I won’t be particularly surprised if it doesn’t. 
 

As I am not CDC, Jay Hartzell, Kevin Eltiffe, or a BMD, my opinion has exactly zero influence on how long Sark is the coach of Texas no matter how many scathing diatribes I post on a message board. Accordingly, I choose to take the optimistic view of his tenure for as long as possible. If you prefer to digitally rage at the heavens for the next 2+ years, that is certainly your right. You’ll have a lot of company on this thread. 

This is 100% the right approach. However unlikely it may be the alternative is to waste emotional energy that we all need for ordinary living.

Coach yells and screams before a win= “He fired up the troops! look at that passion!”

Coach yells and screams before a loss= “Cringe. Fake tough guy. Team was probably laughing at him”

Figured he’d get there but now with the move to the sec, idk maybe that conference is actually tougher?

Not really. Come at me bro shit is petty. Being a grown man and leading young men requires maturity. You don’t physically escalate a situation as a leader and cuss in a guy’s face like a 8th grade bully when the guy is doing his job and trying to maintain a line with an excited group of guys pushing forward.  You actually understand him and follow his instructions.

No response from Sark is right thing to do. 

Just pull up all the irate videos of Saban if yah need to be reminded about a bunch of dumb shit coaches do during games and press conferences.

This is a non story after this weekend -- Sark and CDC should just ignore it. 🤘

 

Agree zero need to address it, except you know some dumbass Austin “journalist” will ask him a stupid question about it at his next PC (not sure when, signing day 2?) like it somehow matters.

I don’t think Sark was doing it to hype up the team. He’s just insanely pissed this guy put his hands on Sark’s chest. It’s not a good look, but if Sark had major anger issues we would have seen him yelling like this at players & coaches on the sidelines by now.

Herman would have blown a big bubble in the guy’s face and given him a big wet kiss right on the lips.

Back to Sark as a coach, that bowl game was revealing. They really weren’t very competitive. And while Washington is a pretty good team, that game shows that Sark is pretty limited as a coach.

As much as Herman was dislikable, couldn’t attract top assistance coaches, turtled too much, and failed to recruit effectively, especially along the lines, his teams could surprise stronger teams. He proved that as OC at OSU, and again at Houston and Texas. He can coach.  

Sark has shown little ability to beat good teams and coaches. He’s average right now. Unfortunately, while Herman could have fairly easily improved his performance by not turtling and recruiting the lines better, there’s no easy path to success if you keep getting out-coached.  That means you simply aren’t smart enough. I think next year is going to be a big disappointment and setback. Happy New Year!

Damn, the truth hurts… Sark is also reaping the benefits of the transfer portal and NIL… If Herman had those advantages, he probably would’ve stumbled into the playoff.

Not disagreeing with your take, but “good coaches” is pretty subjective. People would have creamed themselves last year at the thought of him beating Aranda but now we know Aranda is probably a one-hit wonder. Same with beating Campbell this year. He is 2-0 against Kleiman. 

But yes, he failed to slam the door shut against Riley last year and Saban this year. He outcoached both for the majority of the game (I know that means little). Just like you said Herman could get better by simply not turtling and recruiting the LOS better, the same could be said with just learning how to finish the job with Sarkisian. I think in both instances it is easier said than done btw.

Agree, it would be better to have some numbers that really  indicate whether he’s any good or not. I’m going purely off the perceived talent levels of all the teams, and how Texas performed against those teams.

Last year’s OU game and this years Bama game were two key tests, and it is positive that they at least looked good for a big part of those games. I also thought about how young Texas is along the OL and at QB. That can make a coach look bad too.

If it’s fairly easy to improve by not turtling, can’t Sarkisian fairly easily improve by not turtling or otherwise fucking up, which would turn Texas into a 10-2 team this year? If not 11-1. 

There were a lot more failures from Herman than turtling and not recruiting the lines. 

Sarkisian may not be able to make the changes to be able to close out games. Maybe he’s just a dumbass that can ride talent and a week of planning for first half glory but is too dim-witted to make halftime adjustments. I doubt it, but it’s possible and I certainly have no cogent explanation for blowing big leads. 

Or maybe an edge that can get a crucial sack or an LB that makes a tackle without giving up extra yards or a 1 WR who catches TD passes that hit him in the hands flips one score losses into wins. 

I guess we’ll all pump sunshine, cry woe is Texas, or something in between for eight months until we see a meaningful game again.

I think I mentioned that in another post. Yes, there’s a step up in competition but going to the SEC is also getting us access to recruits that want to play in that league that simply wouldn’t consider a B12 team. If he keeps stacking up top 5 classes like the last two, we will win a lot of games. Again, I I’m dubious about him beating other teams who have stacked top 5 classes like UGA and Bama, and he’ll likely get out coached when he plays good coaches with near comparable talent like LSU with Kelly or Tennessee with Heupel.

I doubt you can find saban doing a come at me bro move. I’d bet $100 (big money spender) his antics are about performance, referees, distractions, or things that relate to the game. I bet that $100 you won’t find him being a jackwagon like sark was. anyone who thinks his come at me bro shit is normal or ok or irrelevant is wrong. Might it be something to look past, maybe, but it was stupid, and has nothing to do with performance or being competitive, it was immature meathead behavior. 
 

* I’m talking about his get your fucking hands off me antics to the guy trying to keep the team back, not the team chest bumping and shoving. I think that’s silly but whatever, that’s not an issue.

It’s a different tough. Trenches tough. The passing attacks in the big 12 are a total beat down in their own way.

Maybe not the best stat to look at, but we were 8-5 against the spread this year.

When we were favored by 7 or more, we went 6-1 straight up (TCU only loss). When we were less than 7 point favorites or underdogs, we went 2-4 straight up (Bama, Tech, OSU and Washington the losses). So when the “talent level” and home/away was taken into account and the margin for error got smaller, it basically became a coin flip (if you just remove the Bama game which we were heavy underdogs in)

I have no issues with any of that saban atuff. And none of that is similar to sark’s brah moment. That’s all about winning, media trying to bait him, players not performing, not playing to a standard. 
 

show me where he nearly started a fist fight with a crowd control guy. Then you’ve got something.

And I’ll go a step further - a coach giving the media or the refs any kind of earful - while it might not be my tact - is completely in the bounds of being a competitive coach.  
 

a coach demanding excellence in all aspects of a player’s life is 100% in bounds, I don’t care what the score is. 
 

a grown man escalating to within one step of a fist fight with another grown man who is just doing his job is whack.  Y’all understand that the bigger man was the crowd control guy who deescalated right?  Y’all realize sark probably assaulted him right? Like legally assaulted him. Y’all realize the next step was a punch being thrown right?  The level of meh whatever here is kinda surprising. I’m not saying he should get the beard suspension treatment but it’s definitely something to note and to remember and if I was his AD I absolutely would talk to him and say you aren’t doing anyone a favor, especially yourself with that antic, and you’re not to pull that stunt again.

The below information is why I'm really not a fan of Ex-Qb's becoming head coaches, defensive minded guys are more preferable for me personally. They seem to understand controlling the LOS and don't fall in love with throwing it around too much. Offensive minded guys seem to gravitate to the pass way too much. 

 

2022

0-3 in games Texas passes 39 times or more. 

5-0 in games with 40+ rushing attempts

2-5 in games with less than 35 rushing attempts

 

It's so blatantly clear the path to success this year was through the legs of Bijan/Roschon.

Rojo average 7.7 carries per game. 

3-0 when Rojo had double digit carries. 

 

The largest deficit Texas has faced this season was in the Alamo Bowl when down 27-10 in the 3rd Quarter. 

 

At no point in any game should the running game have been abandoned which it was multiple times (Tech, OK St, TCU)

I think he’s smart enough to be a successful head coach at Texas.   I’m not sure he’s smart enough to be both HC and OC.  I agree with the poster yesterday (Tex Pete) who said his game management suffers because of the stress the OC job puts on him.   Only a very elite few can do both well.  If I was advising him I’d tell him to start looking for an OC.  His game planning and play calling is sporadically very good to elite but not consistently good enough over the course of a whole season when coupled with HC duties.

We won because RoJo carried double digits in these games ergo give the ball to RoJo double digits and we will win this game. That’s loaded with logical fallacies. 
 

Though generally I agree with you - the game is dynamic - we won because our OL was able to dominate the LoS so we could run well.  Was that because we handed RoJo the ball 12 times, no. RoJo had a stellar day because he was handed the ball 10+ times? No. The run game in all aspects worked including match ups, plays called and the OL matchups. in some cases the opposing team stopped the run or the OL played like freshmen, so the pass is needed to loosen them up or whatever else and that also didn’t work and Texas lost.  Sometimes the run was working and sark got cute. It’s more dynamic though than just give RoJo and BJ the ball.

Trying to correlate run and pass splits with winning is flawed logic, as pointed out above.

We had to throw the ball 19 times in the 4th quarter against Washington because we were freaking down 17 points. 40% of our passing attempts came in one quarter. Same thing against OSU. 15 of Ewers’ 49 attempts came in the final 8 minutes of the game when we HAD to throw the ball. Same against TCU, he was at 29 attempts when we got down 2 scores and had to throw the ball in the 4th quarter.

When you are winning a game, you typically run the ball more late, inflating your run totals. That is how football works.

No, you're right about that. I'm not saying if you start the game off by giving ROJO 12 straight carries that doesn't mean you win. What I'm saying is we shied away from the running game way too fast in favor of a true freshman throwing deep balls to invisible receivers. 

Here's a perfect example (because a common theme seems to be "TCU shut down Bijan") Here's TCU's commitment to their running game despite Texas "shutting it down"

Kendre Miller running sequence vs Texas

1 for 5 yds

2 for -3 yds

3 for 4 yds

5 for 6 yds

6 for 4 yds

7 for 2 yds

8 for 4 yds

9 for 2 yds

10 for 5 yds

11 for 3 yds

12 for 5 yds

13 for -1 yd

14 for -1 yd

15 for 4 yds

At this Point Miller had 15 carries for 39 yds  2.6 YPC

***16 for 75 yds TD***

17 for 6 yds

18 for 9 yds

20 for 2 yds

21 for 1 yd

21 carries for 138 yds 1 TD 6.6 YPC

 

The point is, when you have a dynamic player like Bijan Robinson, he can take one to the house at any point in time. He was given 12 carries during this game which is down right criminal. Meanwhile, QE was given the green light to launch 39 throw punts.

I agree Sark does out thinks himself at times when calling plays. 100% in favor of him having a legit OC calling plays and he acts the HC part. I also agree BJ should have 15 touches at a minimum plus 3-5 passes thrown to him per game. He was under utilized imo.

Not always the case, but yes that's factual more often than not. Lets have the game sequence do the talking though.

17 for 6 yds

18 for 9 yds

20 for 2 yds

21 for 1 yd

21 carries for 138 yds 1 TD 6.6 YPC

 

The point is, when you have a dynamic player like Bijan Robinson, he can take one to the house at any point in time. He was given 12 carries during this game which is down right criminal. Meanwhile, QE was given the green light to launch 39 throw punts. 

 

 

 

Exactly my opinion. As I pointed out in the bowl thread, J Brooks had the only two TDs of the game for us on 8 total touches. How does our dipshit coaching staff not ride that guy for at least double that amount of touches?

Bijan should have had over 2000 total yards but we went Jack Pardee run and shoot in too many games.

Sark is the football analog to Shaka Smart. Capable of amassing a ton of talent but incapable of game day coaching.
