  1. Yep, we mostly agree. I addressed the fear of change aspect, and its not unfounded. I just think the possible upside greatly outweighs the risk involved vs status quo. Let's go Hokies, Get em tigers!
  2. I think your observation about the sentiment about many posters in this thread might be accurate, but I suspect there might be a number of silent observers that don't agree. Nicole and I have caught a lot of shit, me for my data and position, Nicole for her position and information. It's gotten pretty toxic at times and I think it's likely stopped a lot of people from commenting given those realities. At this point there are really three primary questions. First, based on the off season choices Sark has made and the results we've seen on the field do you think Sark should be let go. Second/third, do you believe the rumors of behavior that lead to those choice and if so are those behaviors a reason to let Sark go. I'll note, I used "let Sark go" as a broad term for both firing for cause or strongly encouraging him to take a new job in the NFL or elsewhere. That's what is the core of the discussion. I only have my thoughts and I've expressed I am pretty confident Sark is not returning. Mostly because I think the behaviors led to the choices and results, and I'm not okay with either. Now, there are some big games going so I'm moving on to those.
  3. I barely give any shits about what people on Surly think about my thoughts on the matter. There is a reason I've never opened SECrant. I truly couldn't give a single fuck about what the idiots on SECrant think about my feelings on Sark or internal issues at Texas. What's next, we gonna start concerning ourselves with the thought of the posters on Texags?
  4. Who is ignorantly sending a message with very subtle undertones of threat to a serial killer. Brilliant!!! He must be fully unaware of our rock throwing, wreath funding past.
  5. In an investigation the shortest distance between two points is not necessarily a straight line. I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.
  6. It's like they don't even know history much less respect it. Younguns these days, I'll tell you what. Dang ol itjut keeds main.
  7. The transition is complete? The horror, the horror!
  8. Point of fact, Tuscaloosa is 3 hours from Atlanta, 3 and 1/2 from Nashville and I honestly don't really give a shit where she ends up as long as it isn't in Austin.
  9. You're not wrong.
  10. Lol, jinx mother fucker!
  11. Coaching college football is supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great. Coaches are like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get. I know what I have to do now. I have to keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what coach the tide could bring.
  12. Wound my heart with a monotonous langour.
  13. Fair enough. I don't think this is the best thread to debate how KC utilizes X vs how Sark did and just agree Sark took too long to figure it out. Let's focus on the thread topic. Sark is terrible.
  14. Let me step in here and provide some focus. At this point there are exactly 2 things you need to concern yourself with for the rest of the season. First, taking Pig and their inbred, methhead, beat up jalopy drivin', no shoes wearing asses and send them back to their pretty teeth loving shit hole of a state with a deep crevasse where their assholes use to be. Second, but with no less urgency or intensity curb stomping aggies, "destroying" their season, and making them second guess the bullshit confidence they have built beating a bunch of corchless bottom feeding teams. All else is immaterial. Focus, we got bitch ass teams to pimp slap.
  15. So are you confirming its time to roll out the conspiracy board, grab some push pins, fire up flight tracker and get to work? I know were solid on both Sharpies and Sharpie Kink. Just let your Dong, Song! But... looks like I picked the wrong week to quit Methamphetamines.
  16. More than a fashionista she is an influencer. I said it a few pages back but might as well send her to Mumbai. Dolphins and Giants are possibly looking, if Loreal was calling the shots 💯 that's where they'd go.
  17. But it returned with promises of future fun and debauchery. We're all buying in despite the knowledge that it will disappear on us again. I embrace my absentee step dad with open arms.
  18. Well Mensa did remember the name of his starting QB so that's a plus for him.
  19. I'm here to help the entire readership of this thread.
  20. Lol, not my first rodeo. While I mock the aggie style of "2 semis put it on the wall" logic I too was impressed by Sarks performance in getting to the CFPs. For the record I thought Sark was another very mid project hire, just like the others prior to his arrival all the way back to Mackovic, like you. That said something became painfully obvious this year, well lots of things but one thing in particular. Last year, I own I was very critical of Quinn. I had high expectations for Arch and hoped with the right QB the ship would set sail. I was horribly wrong in both regards. The issue last year wasn't Quinn and this year isn't Arch. @Thatguy tried to make it clear (though I still disagree with some of his logic) but I couldn't see the forest for the trees. I saw bits and pieces on occasion. I had the puzzle mostly put together but didn't have the finished picture so was lost. This particular aspect is why I am so vehemently frustrated with Sark. In retrospect, knowing the full picture, and to a degree, I saw most of it last year, Texas had a championship caliber team. Truly. From D to QB, from OL to LB. Now ST were not great but thats a separate issue. Penalties and RZ performance kept Texas from winning a national championship. That's 100% coaching issues. That torques me, a lot. Then this year came, D has gone poop and what I still believe to be generational talent a QB is being squandered because of horrible off season choices, terrible offensive schemes and a myriad of other coaching blunders. So if it is getting worse, and I'm accurate in my assessment that NIL doners are frustrated and likely to pull money with Sark at the helm... well.... the future is bleak. Maybe I'm wish casting to prevent the doom I perhaps incorrectly see coming next year. The tea leaves I'm reading support my position, but the truth is I'm a coffee guy so wtf do I really know. Nobody reads coffee grounds. (Edit - Just in case my prior analysis and clear statement of fact was missed or unclear, I'm not interested in Lane. I think him another midish hire, though using your numbers I saw Sark as a 6 out of 10 at time of hire and see Lane as a 7.5-8)
  21. The difference between your post and the one you responded to, and many like it is the underlined. "..Think Sark will be our coach indefinitely.." You didn't write as if it were laws of physics with absolute certainty. I don't think nor believe Sark is going to be the HC next year. However, I acknowledge that I don't know that for a certainty and it's entirely possible he will return. People speaking in absolutes as if they were CDC himself and slamming on opposing thoughts with vitriolic anger has made this thread and frankly this board a lot more toxic. It's perfectly fine to disagree with one another's perceptions or takes on issues, based on logical reasoning. It's toxic to attack posters with alternative positions and absolute certainty that position is actual fact, not opinion. I know people don't agree with me, doesn't mean I think they are necessarily stupid. (There are definitely some idiots) We just read the tea leaves differently and have come to different conclusions in our opinion about the future. And that's okay.
  22. Yet, and importantly, the numbers by Bohls were pretty close and as a net she was correct. Your ridiculous "there are posters here that know" bullshit could have just been to tag @immamacor @RGBIII. In summation, you were talking shit about something not even directly quoted that was accurate. Made vague references to other posters for no reason who ended up confirming the information you questioned as true. Then you have the stones to come in here and shit on @Nicole44 again. She was accurate, you were wrong. You're a petulant little child and we are done.
