  1. You can say that again. There are a few good posters on RP, but it's mostly mouth breathers who live down to the worst stereotypes of Texas Tech fandom.
  2. Bad QB play very arguably cost us 3-4 wins last year, and I'm afraid it may again this year. (Bad place kicking also hurt, but that's more understandable, as our starting guy got hurt and most teams don't have two good PKs.) It would be ironic if that's what ultimately gets Kliff fired, but then his rep for coaching QBs got him the job, so "live by the sword, die by the sword" I guess.
  3. I wouldn't be opposed to that. Gibbs has far better credentials now than Kliff did when he was hired at Tech.
  4. How has UT been doing with their resources? In both cases, bad coaching decisions (i.e. bad hires, but also keeping Mac Brown too long in UT's case) has made for some bad football. That's it, just like TCU has succeeded by finding a good coach and keeping him.
  5. OSU started kicking our asses on the regular just after Mike Leach got fired. Coincidence?
  6. Is that you, Mom? How did you find out about surlyhorns?
  7. One of the best decisions Kliff has made as HC was to stop with the stupid uni designs in year two. Others, such as Okie State, press on however.
  8. Tech lands 4 star guard Kevin McCullar: https://texastech.rivals.com/news/red-raiders-land-four-star-standout-kevin-mccullar
  9. Agreed, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I think if they let Hocutt make the call, he'd hire a pretty good coach, but I don't think he's the one calling the shots when it comes to football.
  10. I know what you're saying. I did that the day Leach got fired (got drunk, but just watched cable sports news talking about it) and never have invested that much emotion in Tech football, or sports in general, ever again after that.
  11. Yeah, he's probably the safest bet because he has head coaching experience at a P5 school. I would also expect him to fare just about as well at Tech as Kliff has.
  12. Once that season ended, I put that one aside, i.e. I've never watched it again, though obviously it's hard to avoid seeing the one play by Crabtree. I knew that it could very well turn into some kind of fetish object with a lot of Tech fans, and it has.
  13. I would really hope we hire someone who doesn't have direct ties to Leach (or Tuberville) when they fire Kliff, but I know that's exactly what they'll do. The Tech big money guys who make these decisions really seem to want somebody who can run Leach's offense but has a docile, easy to control personality, so whoever's out there that's most like Kliff will be the next Kliff.
  14. As long as there is no alcohol in it, yes, human blood is acceptable for Mormon consumption.
  15. Eh, that's pretty good, but not nearly as good as say, someone making a high pitched bird-like noise continuously for the duration of a whole baseball game.
  16. Aggie_lawyer93 EDIT: Sorry I misspelled "catsup/ketchup"; I've been drinking.
  17. The aggy tears on texags after a loss like this are like lotus flowers growing in the muck.
  18. This has probably already been covered, but those IU unis are fucking ridiculous, unless the idea is to look like catchup, in which case they nailed it.
  19. Let's tell it like it is. In aggy terms losing to Bama by less than 20 is equivalent to winning a division in the NFL
  20. Good stuff. Sad aggy is even funnier than unjustifiably overconfident aggy.
  21. I can only assume, since it's aggy, that it has something to do with semen.
  22. I think that's more or less what this one is: https://texags.com/forums/8/topics/2954316 ("Aggies suck" chant during tu vs. Texas Southern")
  23. 9-2 Tech over NMSU heading to the bottom of the 8th.
