  1. Free Pizza.
  2. I’m saying that beating By God Texas probably isn’t high up on their motivation list. And yes, they may or may not want to be there. It’s hard to gauge interest level after a conference title loss.
  3. Yeah, it's nice to sit there with the "we're everybody's big game" mantra, but playing bad name teams in sh*tty bowls isn't a sure fire way to motivate human beings.They could come out flat or not, and it probably has nothing to do with a fantasy of beating up on the orange and white.
  4. They’ll probably destroy us and our interim staff, but I am dubious as to whether they’ll be motivated after their trouncing by Oregon. They may not be overly excited to be there.
  5. Is Lashlee actually running Sonny’s offense? I saw some Malzahn flavor in their attack, but is that window dressing added to Sonny’s own very credible offensive resume or is Rhett actually in control?
  6. Yup. First I knew was my first flight instructor who died in an aft loaded 1900 in CLT. Then my roommate in college my junior year decided to do an overhead and stall spun it into the ground. Amazing how many you know when you start adding it up.
  7. I can think of no better man to advise on lateral moves than Greg Davis given that Graham Harrel is our OC target.
  8. So really it will be a nickel over front with press man quarters behind, and stay pretty bland until 3rd down. He’ll be asking a lot of our safeties to correctly read and crash down on the run or help in pass coverage. We have the personnel to run this thought the LB’s will be young, and we’ll probably need to bring in a transfer for insurance.
  9. This. Clean box count leads to clean reads. Keep the S afraid for their lives with the deep shots, and let the rushing attack do work between the hashes. The QB usually knows pre snap if he’s throwing or handing off. The interesting thing is that one side of the field often doesn’t even bother to run a play. The WR’s on that side just stand at the LOS and take a breather. Small side note to that, against TTU we ran 5 wide with a rollout left, and hit DD on basically a smash concept. The WR on the far sideline, Epps maybe, never ran a route. He just stood there.
  10. Damnit. Blindsided.
  11. Yeaaahhhh, no.
  12. The Veer and Shoot doesn’t throw over the middle. It doesn’t have any routes between the hashes. I watched 5 seasons worth of that offense when we hired the Giblet to see what was coming. I saw a true crossing route run a handful of times. It was out of 21 personnel with the QB under center, and the pass was ALWAYS thrown to and completed into the flat to the back on that play. The middle of the field is reserved for the rushing attack and occasional TE silver bullets in the V/S. Shane didn’t struggle to throw there. There was no there, there.
  13. Nope. As an elite position coach you’d have some nice leverage in that situation. The school is going to pay you market rate, and give you 2-3 years of pay guaranteed. Maybe even with no offsets And future employers, who’ve all had to play that game at some point, will understand and still hire you when Battleship Herman founders in 2020. It also helps to think of life as an alpha dog coach who thinks he can do anything, and not like an average schluff picking between Cubicle Co. and Widget Bros.
  14. He was, but spilling champagne all over yourself on the flight to Austin, and then heading in for the interview probably went over about as well as a Warehime house call.
  15. Yeah, well did he take pics of himself romancing a shark in a boat? Because all that sounds amateurish in comparison.
  16. It was delivered with care, because Orlando doesn’t handle edges well.
  17. That narrative and others settled in right after the clock hit zero on the TTU game. A beating of a crap TTU team occurs, and all the sudden the oceans are healed and Tom Herman is good to go with minimal staff turnover. Got that 7th win and now the bleating from give the coaches more time crowd has restarted in earnest.
  18. Allow me to reacquaint you with the retread from roundball, the nuisance from the NBA, Patterson’s Patsy and Interloper of Austin. One Felisa Israel. May she be driven into the sea or nearest available body of water down to and including a bowl that might cause drowning.
  19. I’ve always wondered why we don’t approach our game atmosphere like the Masters. One very overt thank you to Mighty Fine, Tiff’s Treats, SWA or whoever at the start of each half thanking them loudly for the next 30 minutes of ad free football. And I’m talking about ad free football at the stadium and not on tv for whatever illiterate is madly typing up a reply about how we’re not the Masters after reading the premise.
  20. Nothin wrong with that. Between the hashes is reserved for the rushing attack, and the once in a blue moon silver bullet to the TE/H. You just need the inventor running it and not someone who borrowed his playbook.
  21. Per several sources the GA’s and analysts have been telling the staff that we have a lot of tells and tendencies. The staff seems ambivalent about it.
  22. Odds are he has several if he was serious about his swinging.
  23. Separate issues. What Greg Davis was forced to run has no bearing on the fact that he never understood constraints and window dressing in either the passing or running game. Tim Beck would love to air it out all day too. It doesn’t mean he gets the subtleties of luring defenders into attacking things that end up not happening.
  24. I'd lump Greg Davis in with that group too. This X must react this way to that O. No consideration for the human reacting to their plays, how to dupe said human into getting out of position or the abilities of those running the plays themselves. This does this. See, it works on a white board. Actually, Herman seemed pretty decent at it when he was in a booth calling plays, and had an honest to God mastermind managing the game from the sideline.But now he's being fed a selection fo plays from very linear thinkers, and signs off on them if it seems ok to him. And his penchant for trying to show the world how big his dick is means he's happy to keep pounding away at that peg/hole mismatch.
