  1. Chris Beard won at fucking Angelo State. As one who grew up in that area, I know that they have never been better than mediocre, dating to the 1960's. He took a disintegrating roster when Shaka left, and had us in terrific shape when he and Ginger went bat shit crazy. My take on him is that he is the real deal, but you will get some variance in results with his roster churning. My take on Coach Terry is kind of like SLX , but more optimistic. My only concern is getting KO'd in the Elite 8. I think that CDC will go big even if we win 2, but maybe not at 3. As he said, if we get Final Four, he's earned it. In any case, I'm rooting for them to win every game, no caveats.
  2. I'd say the captain jumped over board, matey. 😉
  3. It may seem less crazy when you consider that Red McCombs, for whom our Business school & softball stadium are named, opined upon Charlie's hiring that Strong would make a good position coach or maybe a coordinator. Red wanted Jon Gruden (wtf?) and was pissed that he and other big shots were not consulted. Having owned a couple of pro franchises, he probably had given such input on earlier hires.
  4. There were multiple bad calls of significance, so I do not think there was anything innocent about that shit at all. No clue what caused it, but Strong pissing off the refs is not a consideration for me. The refs finally did piss Charlie off though, I'll give you that.
  5. There were bad calls prior to that incident (which started during the play when an OSU OL tackled a UT DL & defensive holding was called - a WTF moment if I ever saw one). I have never heard what I consider to be a good theory why the game was called as it was, but I heard a wild speculation (on Surly, I think) that some UT booster(s) were fed up with Strong and trying to get him fired. As much as that crazy ass theory sickens me, it makes as much sense as anything else I've heard.
  6. I hate it because those fuckers look to be in a downward spiral. We do get cTu though, so I am glad about that one.
  7. 1300 yards versus 900 yards "seems" kind of lopsided to me.
  8. Perhaps a UH connection (even though they did not overlap in their tenures at Coog)?
  9. And if you want a motive, how about sticking it to the schools leaving the Big XII conference? There was an LA Times article mid-season about penalties assessed on UT, OU, USC and UCLA. At the time those schools had incurred 13XX yards in penalties versus 9XX for their opponents.
  10. The holding non-call and the ridiculous targeting call (Still haven't figured out how they came up with that one) would have changed the outcome of the Bama game. Seems pretty egregious to me dude.
  11. This is so blown out of proportion, every team gets bad calls, you all are just hyper focused on everything going against us. The refs havent kept us basically irrelevant for over a decade Hell, we were getting cheated in the Baylor game (by the same crew that called the osu game) until those fuckers saw the handwriting on the wall and gave up.
  12. Check the box score for the okie state game, paying special attention to the penalties.
  13. Kurt needs to ride off into the suset. Like yesterday,
  14. How can you be that fucking dumb? Even with the goofy lop-sided media coverage, how do you not know about Vince?
  15. I agree with the evaluation part of recruiting. Relationships will also be important, but NIL does significantly change the business aspect.
  16. He's been pretty good on staff hires, save for the Stoop's debacle. Besides when has it been such a negative to wait on an NFL guy whose team is still playing?
  17. the post just prior to yours pretty much spells out why they think that is not a priority.
  18. Rooting hard for the fighting Shanahans. Hook 'em!
  19. A seven point loss to the 11/12th ranked team? C'mon man.
