Imagine trying to discuss the chemistry of Ian Boyd with a straight face, much less complete earnestness. 

The entire time I watched any of the football theory with Ian and Rod it was comical. Ian would put his "theories" out and Rod would make some peculiar facial expressions or act like what he was hearing was good. Or Rod would ask Ian a question about a particular X and O type thing and Ian would be not very knowledgeable about it. It was quit obvious one just reads books and doesn't really know much vs a guy like Rod who was a technician as a player and knows X's and O's.

Yeah... I honestly hadn't heard much from Roddy B. before this season - just wasn't paying attention to his radio shows and such. He's gotten a lot better at pausing and letting others contribute (since his brain goes so fast), but I love his  knowledge of the game and you could fill a book with his one-liners and anecdotes. He's really grown on me over this season.

Joe Cook has the personality of a door knob.

 

Also I skimmed through the IT videos....Nahlin is hardly on there. Dude wanted all of Bobby's clout but doesn't even want to put in the work on his own channel. 

Would you say Nahlin wanted to profit off Bobby's Name, Image and Likeness?

He’s better than I excepted. Thought he would be like Joe Cook.

Joe Cook is the managing editor at IT and kind of a beat writer. he's actually has a journalism degree from Texas.

comparing Cook to someone like Wells or Boyd or Scipio or Vogel or someone like Special K at TFB is not understanding what he does.

Cook and Scipio are different sides of the same personality coin. 

Boyd, Cook, and Scipio are terrible for YT content. Even that new guy they have is boring.

 

Wells is the only personality that IT has for YT and he's not that great at his job.

I don't really agree. If these guys were breakfast:

- Cook is a plain bowl of oatmeal. 

- Scipio is also a bowl of oatmeal, but it's got cinnamon and raisins and is served with a side of strong coffee. 

- Boyd is a bowl of cottage cheese that was left out overnight.

- Wells is the milk that's left in the bowl after you eat all the fruity pebbles out of it.

So your only disagreement is Scipio? As I've said before he's better in print form than in front of a camera.

Well then don’t put him on videos. 

yeah, again. their managing partner is shit and not very good at his job.

i think joe is fine, but that's me and he doesn't bother me.

they start all these videos with "welcome to inside texas football powered by inside texas dot com" which is just terrible. yeah, dumbasses. we are on your channel and clicked on this video. we know who it is.

they brought on additional dudes to help with video but have still not highlighted who they are. their videos don't highlight who is even on the video so if i like the guy on the left in these screenshots below how do i find out who he is or go see more of his content? the prime example of this is that they brought in the holifield guy to help with production (but he's front of camera talent now) who does pretty solid video stuff but haven't put out anything that he's part of the team? all that's out there is his own video?

and since someone needs to call them out directly: wells and ian boyd need to get their shit together on just a basic level video wise. having a bland ass wall as your background in 2023 when you are doing video professionally is embarrassing.

this is bad:

this is worse in every possible way:

image.png.c1b3ed9127b4e448634060b3471b1989.png

this is all stuff that the managing partner of a website that's halfway worth a damn does or at least sees.

if you do anything for a living that includes video and you are using that terrible lighting, the potato webcam that is on your laptop and use the worst possible angles - you should stick to writing and let people who give even a tiny bit of a damn about it do that part of things for you.

hey eric, since you appear to need someone to do your job for you:

  • go send these guys a halfway decent camera setup
  • go send these guys almost any USB mic (not even a good one!)
  • go send these guys even a $10 ring light from amazon
  • go pay someone $5 on fiverr to make a digital background with the IT logo on it instead of having people shoot videos for your channel that look like it's a hostage video if i mute the audio

just do the absolute minimum so that your videos looks even halfway professional instead of some hacked together show from 2012 that was you screenrecording skype from your parent's basement. you can ask holifield for some product recommendations, he knows his stuff.

...or don't, and keep looking like the unprofessional shitshow that you are and have been for a long time.

look, if your content sucks, at least make sure your video quality is slightly above the absolute minimum of "oh shit, it's spring break 2020, COVID just hit and we have never used zoom before" levels. because that's pretty consistently half of the folks on the videos on your channel.

I think OTF's next evolution needs to be getting better all around mic quality and sound consistency for the guys who are consistently on such as Bobby, CJ, and Blake. There are some quality USB mics out there that don't require much setup such as Audio Technica AT 2020 and Shure USB. Those two models are cheap and have really good quality.

Yes. Absolutely agree. If that is your main business now and not a side hustle to the website they need to improve their production quality. Backgrounds, lighting, microphones. Clean up the bottom third graphics (they're either huge or disproportionately small or insignificant looking. They basically need a graphics and production specialist. Hell, if I lived in Austin I'd probably volunteer to help them out.

You could probably help them out regardless because Bobby doesn't even live in Austin.

Wells and Boyd are aware they can apply a background on video chats right? I use one that’s a photo of my office so nobody can tell if I’m working remotely or at the office. If I’m smart enough to figure this out, surely guys that make videos for a living can as well.

Oh boy, watching tonight's IT livestream & Nahlin didn't even know what a SuperChat is. After Joe Cook explained to him what a SuperChat is, Nahlin tells the audience to not waste their money on SuperChats & get an IT sub instead. LOL.

At least IT has some entertainment value because Nahlin is such an asshole.  Compare it to Orangebloods… OB is just Ketch going all Jabba on a 10,000 gallon tub full of cheap pasta and Anwar verbally masturbating his bad takes into some sort of Bizarro reality

OTF should also take some of the best lines and moments from the broadcasts and make youtube shorts. those things bring in a lot of views from my understanding.

This is a really good way to boost subscribers. It doesn't boost the ad rev, but it boosts the amount of people who get recommended to the longform stuff.

Timestamps are also useful if the show can be broken up into segments.
