  1. I wish I could find a reason to be optimistic about Meyer to Texas as some of y’all are. I just don’t see it at this point.
  2. I agree. I was referring to the fourth spot about nobody being worthy. My post wasn’t well written.
  3. I vote Alabama gets a bye. All other teams (and maybe even Ohio State) don’t deserve it
  4. I’ve known two athletes that were recruited by ND. One was accepted but declined and one played football there. Both of them were stretches to get in. It’s a myth or propaganda that they have high admittance standards.
  5. Valid point. I'd still rather have him than any of the other names mentioned.
  6. None of the Plan B's mentioned thrill me but Fickell would be my choice. He worked several years under Meyer and hopefully would have learned how to be successful at a major school.
  7. I always loved this piece by Rinaldi after the 2005 Rose Bowl.
  8. I'm for 8 teams. Each Power 5 conference champ is in plus three wild cards ( actually two since Notre Dame will claim one each year regardless of their record). That leaves the committee to only pick three teams and then the pairings.
  9. If Texas had an agreement with Urban, there would be no reason for CDC to post that press release. He would just need to keep quiet.
  10. This will continue to happen until the administration fires Herman. The kids want certainty and I don't blame them.
  11. I'm just not seeing any of the smoke some on here are seeing.
  12. Me too. We need to do a real search and look at all possibilities.
  13. I didn't mean anything personal by it. I too got wrapped up in the frenzy. There were undoubtbly some flights that were tracked that were relevant to the search. And no there is nothing wrong with it but that doesn't diminish the fact that much of it was confirmation bias.
  14. This whole thread should be studied by psychologists on how opinions/hopes are affected by confirmation bias. Flight tracking and believing random unnamed posts on the internet are a prime example.
  15. The formation for receiving the onsides kick was worse. I could see Herman using that lineup and then explaining after the game that the odds told him to do it that way.
  16. I get that but I'm not even talking about this particular hire. I'm talking about how Texas does all of their coaching hires.
  17. I'm not saying Texas should hire Traylor but they should be open to hiring someone outside their comfort zone. There are a lot of good coaches out there and most don't currently fit conveniently into the box we want them to be in.
  18. A cheaper head coach allows you to spend more on assistants. Hire someone like Traylor and then go overboard on the assistants and analysts.
  19. Belmont needs to ask itself why schools like Cincinnati get it right at a higher rate than Texas. I'd have no problem hiring a top assistant. At least we would know they wouldn't bring their entire previous staffs like Herman and Strong did.
