I don’t look at or care what L’Oréal fucking Sarkisian posts on instagram. That’s my point. 

Sark does.

That's our point.

Indiana has only beaten Oregon. They haven't beaten playoff quality teams. They are just beating tier two level teams, which is exactly what we've been doing. We largely beat the teams we are supposed to and lose to teams better than us. Florida is the only outlier.

If you are of the opinion that Indiana wouldn't beat us and isn't substantially better at fundamental football, I suspect you haven't watched them much this year. And how is Indiana treating those tier two teams? They won their WTF game. We've lost ours and gone into overtime twice and into a nail biter against rosters that are vastly inferior to ours.

and you thought Sark wouldn't win more than seven games. Back to back playoffs, and this year being a down year, he will still likely get to 10 wins. Even after scheduling the National Champs out of conference. 

I was completely unaware they handed out a ten win trophy. Why is this a down year? We're reloading after a run? How's that working out for Ohio State?

No we aren't Hobbes @scottsins is correct. We've dumbed down the offense a lot. We threw away the RPO game, played way less 12, and run a lot more simplistic routes overall. Stops, comebacks, outs, and slants are way more frequent. You are right we aren't moving the pocket but moving the pocket brings levels concepts into play and Arch has struggled with those so maybe Sark doesn't trust it. Who can say what that man is thinking. 

Who indeed?

Yep. The guys we've gotten that can play weren't supposed to be here. We aren't getting tier one athletes. We are getting projects. I think what has happened is we were so bad at development for so long on the offensive side of the ball that the negative recruiting is working. I mean what high level offensive talent have we put out? You can count it on one hand. Sark is going to have to get really creative to make up the difference. That's what we needed last year but he wouldn't budge on changing things up, and we could still win in spite of it. This year is not that. He has to not only get more creative offensively, but he has to pull some of the youth into the game.  We stumbled on Brooks because of injuries. Who knows who the best receiver on the team is. Could be someone on the bench. 

Man, I like your film breakdowns, but...

Animated GIF

Yes, they were supposed to be here. We recruited them. We've paid them a fuck load of money. We've intentionally recruited JAG OL because they're large humans or something. Our ability to identify talent is a B-, on a good day. If only we could identify the folks responsible for making these evaluations!

And your opinion is that players are being negatively recruited because we were historically bad at developing offensive talent? That's the reason we're not getting good players? Charlie Strong hasn't coached here since 2016, and Tom Herman beat Georgia.

To the extent that negative recruiting is causing problems for us getting truly elite players, I suspect that pointing at two highly ranked QBs and a bevy of receivers that haven't really developed might be more of a factor than shit that happened with different coaches while current players were in elementary or middle school.

And our best players are currently on the bench? This honestly wouldn't shock me. We just now figured out our best starting OL. Tragically, we're the only team in the NCAA that wasn't allowed to practice or even look at players until the first game of the season.

You'll have to remind me again who is responsible for evaluations, development, and the two deep.

So we are running play action. What do you want straight dropbacks from here on out? Are you seeing what happens when Arch throws into the teeth of a defense? I'm not in love with Sark's playbook, but I understand what he is doing. Arch is not a smart or shifty runner. He is a solid passer when things break down, but that is not the same as moving the pocket. Arch is best in scramble drill, off script situations. I thought outside of bailing on the run a little too early, Sark called a decent game. I thought we struggled to execute. Between drops, missed throws, and penalties we kept shooting ourselves in the foot. I also truly think that the SEC doesn't want us winning for a bit because the flags come out big time when we are playing their crown jewel. Same thing happened last year. 

Well, if my options are "play action that no one respects because we gave up on the run game in the first quarter" and "just fucking drop back", sign me up for option B. Arch - much like every other college player - is unsurprisingly doing much better when he's asked to do things he can do. Hear me out: what if we did that for the whole offense?

This season has revealed that this off season was an unmitigated disaster, and we weren't doing super great with evals before then. We hired Duane Akina. Our coach schemed up an offense for a team he doesn't have. I'm pretty sure that team hasn't existed since NIL introduced significantly more parity.

As far as I can see, Sark is of the opinion that other teams aren't allowed to have good players or watch our film, all of his college players are superheroes, and having a mid TE pick up a crashing end on the other side of the line while we're doing... something? is a plan for football success. After all, on paper, it's genius.

Are our players also shooting us in the dick? Totally. No one can blame Simmons getting offsides on (definitely bad) officiating. First half Ryan Wingo can fuck right off. But I also need a coach that is putting the players he is responsible for recruiting in positions to succeed. I don't need him squatting, looking at a play sheet for a team he doesn't have, instead of reminding them that yeah, that Kirby Smart dickhead might try something on this kickoff, so maybe keep your head on a swivel.

I hope Sark can sort his shit out, but let's not make excuses because winning is hard.

To be fair, the circus atmosphere/sordid story only really exists among Texas online football perverts theorizing about what might be wrong with Sark.

Wait…

here me out.

You give off the appearance of being riled up over the fact that, right now especially with us losing and our team looking so far and away from our preseason rank it’s not even funny,  that some fans just simply don’t want to see an influencer’s posts who recently went to fashion week showing off her style?

There is a thing called read the room which she clearly doesn’t have bc she’s a self promoter. Ain’t nothing wrong with that with self promotion and trying to make your brand. it doesn’t matter if it’s L’Oréal Or any other coach’s wife. If it were Sally or Mrs Terri or who the fuck ever it’s all the same to me.
 

Fans who have been thru the ringer of busted expectations the better part of the last 50 years do not want to see our HC’s self-promoting wife when our team looks like shit, it ain’t complicated. 
 

When your husband is not doing well at his high paying job with top 5 NIL money and top 5 talent that he’s responsible for and he’s been here 5 fucking years and a HC for a total of 11 and he’s the HC of preseason ranked #1 Texas that counts millions of fans all around the fucking globe…some fans see it as tone deaf. Which goes along nicely with her husband saying he thought we ran the ball well last night. Tone deaf and blind and oblivious is a good combo. 
 

Why are you riled up bc someone else is riled up that they don’t want to hear from her at this current time? I mean… 🤷🏻‍♀️ Why do you care that anyone is riled up over her tone deafness? Most of us wish she’d take a back seat right now when everything is so raw and the disappointment of the entire season has come crashing down like our hopes for a playoff and a CCG appearance.

Well, the divorce and reconciliation + baby are factual.  Divorce happens kinda gotta mind your own business on that.  The reconciliation + baby is a little extra, but still falls in the mind your own business bucket.

The rest of it probably isn't well enough sourced for publication.

I think it will pop off once more people finally come around and see what’s obvious with Sark. The post mortem when he leaves or gets canned will be one for the ages, far better than the Herman lore.

Don’t disagree, he went from having an edge to looking like he had been to a busted hypnotist. It wouldn’t bother me at all to see passion on the sideline.
 

He looks detached for the most part but it’s bc he decided to also be the OC and he’s not really watching the defense in the field. He’s thinking of plays in his head.

 

And realizing nothing will work bc our O line is busted that he was responsible for addressing in the offseason. That’s what that far away I just seen a ghost look is about.

Sark looked like a zombie before the game coming out of the tunnel with the team. Too much Xanax or something. Sark looked super emotionless and detached, it was fucking weird, even weirder than Herman’s pregame performances of headbutting players and kissing them.
