    1-5

    We are not going fucking 1-5, so just stop that bullshit.
  2. Oh, I don’t know. Essentially handing the ball to a guy in a different uniform could be construed as a meltdown?
  3. Herman is so full of shit. No fucking body is impressed with his brain skills. He comes across as if he is still a pussy hunter. His vanity is wearing thin with many of us. The season is by no means lost. Mostly because it just fucking started. But, rather then fucking up a metaphor on Steinbeck literature, how about teaching our guys fundamental football. And play the best player. Hermans failure to go back to Ingram was inexcusable after his initial success.
  4. The quit part is what worries me most. Once that shit gets started in a locker room it is damn near impossible for a staff to correct it.
  5. The only thing that I know for sure. Is that in my almost 6 decades of watching from a stroller to a walker I have never, ever seen the number of WTF things that have happened over the last few years. I have seen bad Texas teams, but nothing that even remotely comes close to the strange fucking way we keep getting beat. From coin tosses, to turning the ball over at the worse possible time. Never have I seen things like this happen as frequently as they have from 2015 until now. It’s like the Mack curse is real, and he put it on us for letting him go. As I am superstitious, I believe we need something to happen to change our karma. Just some out of the blue, the same as when you are playing bad golf and you make a putt, chip, whatever. And then birdie the next 3 holes. Because unlike some I don’t believe we have bad players. These same guys were the shit in high school. Something, whether coaching, or lack of it. Is preventing these players from being put in a positive situation to succeed. I refuse to believe we have 85 scholarship stiffs.
  6. I just don’t understand why it is so difficult to coach players up so they master what most agree are simple fundamentals. Goofy shit in year two is fucking crazy.
  7. It’s the way we lose. We fucking spot those fuckers 20 points, and for one series adjust the game plan with 4 rushes and a single pass and get 7. Then what do we do? We fucking stop doing what just got us points. That is the shit I don’t get. No one is saying rush the ball 45 times. But at least force them to make an adjustment before you stop going to the well. We basically played defense against ourselves by holding our RB attack. And in place of that we’re plays that, well we’re just not very good. I quite counting the times we ran a play into the very best players they had on defense. Why would you do that? That is the entire purpose of having a spotter upstairs. Looking for a mismatch. Not just to sit in the A/C. It just doesn’t make any sense.

    Before you go there take the time to see how Clemson is operating. Dabo got his ass handed to him season after season (remember West Virginia) until he implemented the “Saban” plan. And that won’t work here. Texas will not allow the Head football coach to pull scholarships, among other things, that we see down here every year simply to have a powerhouse. People easily forget that his success is at the same school Charlie Pell and Danny Ford succeeded at. Followed by multiple NCAA punishment.
  9. It has been noted many times before. But it bears mentioning. Prior to coming to Texas Herman built his entire rep on being an elite coach from winning two specific games. FSU in the Peach bowl, and OU to start the following season. That’s it, nothing on his resume suggests he is anything more then an average coach. Fuck, the argument could be made that he only beat FSU because they (FSU) didn’t even want to play the fucking game after their disastrous ending of a season. And caught OU on opening day where Oliver tee’ed off on a not yet ready offense that by months end was a far better group. Not to mention bag-o-dicks had a history of stinking up openers. this is why a proper coaching search should always be conducted. Don’t just look at a name, look at what the guy actually did. Take nothing at face value. Texas has done this same shit for years. Yes they get it right sometimes (Royal, Mack), but they miss far to often.
  10. Herman is no different then most coaches not named Saban. They are as good as their QB is. Saban is one if the few that doesn’t seem to miss on QB’s. They ain’t shiny, but they can play football at the college level, and they very seldom hurt their team. Herman was that at UH. He had a pretty good QB, and he got better results. So my guess is he is not very good at evaluating and preparing the QB position. If a kid has raw talent he can get by. The evidence is how our guys look. They are not bad athletes, they just don’t seem to have the intangibles that make for a great signal caller. They play scared, and it often looks more as if they hope they don’t make a mistake rather then confidently executing the play. I put that on the coach.
  11. I don’t get the total lack of QB development year after year. I also don’t believe our QB’s are as bad as they appear to be. But you can’t miss their expression when a big play is about to happen. They always have a “I hope I don’t fuck this up” look in their eyes. And I lay that at Herman’s feet. I want a guy who has been coached up with confidence and simply isn’t scared to fuck it up. Stop being so fucking tentative. Grab the situation by the balls and perform!
  12. Never understood that. Even here in the Deep South some smartass will say some stupid shit about Texas.
  13. Well, in fairness he doesn’t have to justify a $7 million dollar salary....
  14. We are fucked until we find an elite QB. That more then any one thing is absolutely killing us. A good QB wins this game going away.
  15. Got beat by the other guys stand in. Herman should be embarrassed.
  16. Man, I’m not taking anything away from Maryland. But it’s obvious that these days you must have solid QB play. How the state school is weak at that position is...well, fucking hard to understand.
  17. Would die on the vine going indie. No one would schedule with the playoff selection the way it is.
  18. Looked like one from the end zone camera, but not the overhead. Tough call, wish we didn’t have to hope for a call.
  19. Meh, 6 minutes left. No problem
  20. Jesus, that field doesn’t drain for shit.
  21. We’re not even executing the fundamentals well?
