  1. PK read surly bitching about Bush and is now trying to hide him by disguising him as Zach Edwards, that bastard.
  2. Some of the personnel decisions that PK has made this season are just baffling. I'm hoping he has some kind of long term master plan for success that we aren't privy to that are driving these decisions, otherwise he's simply done an extremely poor job of evaluating the talent on hand and we are likely fucked on that side of the ball, again.
  3. The problem with this analysis is the coaching staff has a proven track record of success at multiple levels of competition whereas many of the players especially at OL/LB/Safety don't and have largely already demonstrated that they just aren't very good. Whether that be due to poor development, talent, or a combo of both.
  4. ImMoron13 seems like he sucks
  5. Who do you think those reps should go to? Moore is our 2nd best WR with Whitt out, which says a lot about our WR depth.
  6. I'm thinking/hoping this is because the DL in PKs scheme have different responsibilities than they did under Ash, and this is causing our players to be hesitant while they learn to play instinctually in the new scheme.
  7. Yeah no shit. I’m not sure how firing coaches before they’ve had a proper chance to get things turned around helps us break out of that cycle, if anything it guarantees it will continue into perpetuity.
  8. This thread is hilarious. Strong was a total disaster his first season at Texas and basically no one was writing him off yet. Sark is halfway through a season where he should have beat 2 highly ranked teams and folks are ready to bail. Not sure what that says about our fanbase but it is what it is.
  9. I wore my Astros trucker hat from @henrygandorf to the Dead and Co show during game 1 on Friday night, I didn’t wear it games 2 & 3, realized the error of my ways and wore it again for games 4-6. Astros Trucker Hat energy will not be denied, Astros Trucker Hat Mafia assemble!
  10. Yeah I don't disagree with that, which is why I also wrote in my post that I'm definitely not happy with the results so far. The best coordinators figure out what the talent they have does best, and then adjust their schemes to put that talent in position to succeed. PK has done a very poor job no doubt.

    TEXAS QB TALK

    This. We have an OL that can't block, and a QB that holds the ball staring downfield waiting for a WR to break wide open. That's a disastrous combination. CT just needs to take the easy plays that are there to be made, and the downfield passing game will open up.
  12. Iowa State and Kansas State have a system that has been in place for years, and they recruit and develop players to play within their system. We have a new staff trying to take a bunch of players that were recruited to play Herman's O and whatever the fuck Orlando was trying to do on D, and they are a very poor fit for what our new staff wants to do. For example, PKs scheme is all about funneling tackles to the LBs and safeties. Well guess which position groups are our worst on D? Is that PKs fault or the previous staff that largely ignored LB recruiting and did a terrible job developing our highly rated safeties? In the 4th quarter against OSU there were plays there to be made and the PLAYERS didn't make them. OSU loaded up against our outside zone and we dialed up plays to counter that, but the players didn't execute. There were multiple crucial downs where we had receivers wide open for a first, and CT couldn't find them. Sark can't make the reads and throws for CT. Flood can't tell the OL who they are supposed to be blocking on every play. The staff has made many mistakes but they are new and working with players they are still feeling out. I'm definitely not happy with the results so far, the team has looked worse than I expected especially on D, but sometimes this happens with a new staff implementing new schemes - players look slow and hesitant. If this shit doesn't improve drastically next season then we have a big problem.
  13. Sure our OL has more raw talent than the OSU DL, but not sure why that is even relevant at this point. It's clear from watching our OL perform this season that the talent hasn't been developed at all. So who is mostly to blame for that? Sark and Flood who have been here all of ~10 months, or the previous staff that had years to recruit and develop these players?
  14. This is CTJ's schtick that he's been doing for as long as I can remember following Texas football message boards, and more likely than not he'll be right because it's apparently really fucking hard to be a successful head coach at Texas. But CTJ won't be right because he has any kind of special insight into head football coaching skills or player talent, he just turns into a negative whiny bitch when we don't perform to his expectations.
