My entire point is we have fuck all to do with the shitty choices Texas decision makers have regarding head coaches. Further, that Cignetti's resume prior was better, longer and more complete than any of the last 3 Texas hires and suprise, suprise his next step was better too. Would I have seen it as a better hire, yes. Would he have been my top choice, no. Would it have been preferable to any of the last 3, yes. 
I didn't bring up the topic in this thread, feel free to go back and find who did and complain to them. 
[mention=492]BurntOrange&White[/mention] nailed it.

That dude seems to be the next Urban Meyer. He just waited later in life to start.

Guys and gals get killed every year in drunken car wrecks or “shootings”. Are our people not gonna party this holiday? Nobody gonna drive over the next few weeks? For every story like the one above, there are three who actually got killed. The real problem is athletes coming back from injuries too quickly. And then some are just injury prone. It’s a lot a variables but most jocks wanna play the game. Whenever it’s offered. Some don’t. Let the players play. 

None of that has anything to do with the topic at all. Again, answer to this:

"If your job told you if you took the rest of the year off you'd get several million dollars next summer, but if you worked the rest of the year (at no pay) there's even a 1 percent chance you wouldn't get the money, none of you would choose to work. 

You're expecting these players to think with your stupid fan brain. And unfortunately that pressure causes some of them to make bad decisions. That's why the coaches need to protect them and do what is right for them. And right for the team. This game is meaningless. "

Can we leave the "sark sucks" stuff to the appropriate thread, for fucks sake.       Whether he sucks or not, it doesn't matter because he isn't going anywhere anytime soon, so just confine the bitching and the sometimes absolutely valid complaints to one or two threads, it doesn't have to infect every thread with the same people saying the same things.   Jesus.

I disagree. People are posting about how practicing and playing this meaningless game will help our players and team improve and I don't think that is absolutely true, as you are dependent on how good your coaches are and how motivated your players are. Did bowl practices help Strong and Herman's teams be better the following year? I don't think it helped one bit. In fact, getting more coaching from bad coaches may make you actually worse. 

If you listened to the Big 10 Championship post game interviews by the Indiana players said, it was very instructive. They both talked about going out to practice throwing and catching at 5:30am on Sundays. I was wondering how their 0-star receiver was making insane catch after insane catch, and now I know. When I watch our supposed 5-star players drop balls all over the field in big games, I wonder whether they have the same commitment or they are getting the best coaching and I don't think the bowl game will help one bit.
