  1. Don't think for even a second that, should Elko go to PSU and at some point win an NC aggie won't claim some tie. Something about helping him become a great coach and rise or some such bullshit. Mark it. I don't think Elko gets the call from PSU, but god I hope he does...
  2. Always appreciate these and don't think you get enough love for them @texifornia so.. thanks! Ass kissing aside, well.. let me do some more. I'm not sure I've ever read one of these that was more accurate. I'm still cackling: Another rivalry game, and one that has rarely involved two ranked teams in recent times. Do you like coastal rich kids and fanbases full of people that got outright rejected from the colleges involved? You're in the right place
  3. I did have a lot of respect for the 8 y/o secondary player that chased him down from behind and made a great form tackle. Seriously, I rewatched it.
  4. This! That video detailing his amazingly unique abilities combined with such a fantastic and positive persona makes me so truly proud and happy Bijan went to Texas. Not just played for the Longhorns but went to my university. Love it and him.
  5. How does he feel about ice tea? Only way to be sure.
  6. So clearly Cignetti is out with a massive contract. So.. Kiffin, Rhule, Lanning, Diaz??
  7. I'm suprised to discover she isn’t one of the women that liked me on the dating apps. Shame that.
  8. I'll allow it, I guess.
  9. They were all open to us coming in whenever. They were prepared to receive the party at 11 am. Unfortunately, life stuff has gotten in the way and I'm unable to attend next weekend. If someone want to take the reigns on my reservations at Bear and Butcher and the contact info I have at Charlie Brown's just PM me. Happy to pass off information.
  10. Yeah Joel Klatt flagged, Rhule, Hartline, Cignetti and Diaz as likely replacements. Diaz was the only one I thought was a big reach. Klatt's pics for PSU HC Give PSU ranks 2nd in my top 3 moral hate with Baylor and MSU i hope its Manny but screwing Nebraska would be nice too.
  11. Well, I guess I can't argue with your first point. As for Joy Division, they really fall more into the post-punk Synth world with the likes of Devo but as a punk lover I like to include them just to ruffle feathers of punk "purists" because if anyone needs their feathers ruffled its those posers.
  12. Yeah, its a real shame certain racist posters hate the best Texas WR ever purely because the color of his skin. Shameful!
  13. No Descents, Black Flag, Dead Milkmen, Clash, or Joy Division? Man.. fuck your elitist ass punk cover band.
  14. You mean like the Florida game or the Ohio State game or the Ohio State game 1 or the SEC championship or Georgia 1? It's been a really long time but I vaguely recall some of them. Look, I'm in here praising Sark for beating the shit out of and out coaching our top 10 ranked rival and he clearly deserves it. I'm very happy about it. It's a huge move in the right direction. That said, just because a consistently abusive boyfriend/spouse apologizes and does some real good doesn't mean he/she should be forgiven all his/her history of abuse, errors and trespass.
  15. It's a fair point, I think it was a little of both but need to watch again to see which. I do think, whether designed rolls or improvised it felt like perhaps Sark gave him the green light to do so if not by design rather than force the drop and full progression. There were absolutely shorter developing WR routes.
  16. Well, since we're already off thread topic, I agree. I really can't see Kiffin leaving a pretty solid gig where he's loved for anywhere but Florida. I mean, he'd go other places in the south/west but in near future potential openings that's the one most likely.
  17. There are specific people shitting 9n the Texas QB after a fantastic ass pounding put on our rival. This place would be apoplectic post 3 losses.
  18. Going to very slightly disagree. I sadly feel compelled to side with the talking heads on Mateer as it relates to this game. While I do agree that no hand injury at all certainly alters the dynamics of this game. However, as several of the talking heads suggested and evidence supports Mateer's issues were far more mental than physical yesterday. He was making some bad choices, going into triple coverages and missing some open WRs. The pressure from Texas D certainly helped exacerbate his mental aspects but ultimately his collapse was far more mental than physical.
  19. I agree with some of your assessment and differ with others. I'll start with the broader agreement. Team cohesion, whether college football, military or corporate is always reliant on the mutual trust among the team members. This trust must be, from origin, fostered by the HC, Generals, CEO and other leadership. The trickle down effect at the individual contribution level requires each part (PART) of the team believe in the others (PARTs) ability to do their job and do it well. Marketing counts on sales to follow up brand awareness and product launch, sales counts on operations to do their job daily and on engineering to provide good product, etc. At the broadest level, D counts on O to score and O counts on D to stop scoring. RB and QB depend on OL to provide running lanes and time. WR count on QB to get the ball to them and OL to give them time to do so. Which is all logical. However, given the NFL approach of Sark in the spring and summer, all parts had to take it on faith that this would occur. It didn't, not surprisingly and so faith and trust in the upper management and their fellow (parts) suffered greatly. Instead of building that trust in practice in off season it was occurring on game day. Management also failed because they assumed the parts would work. They didn't, so they too had to adjust, during actual game and based on game results.
  20. You do realize this is a Longhorn board right? I'm celebrating a good fucking coaching job. Haven't had a lot of opportunity to do so this year. Let me party how I want you control freak.
  21. Faint praise? I and others said it was Sarks best game of the year and I said maybe of his tenure at Texas. You want me to offer to suck Sark's cock? The fuck you want me to say?
  22. We absolutely were more disciplined. While we had a couple of painful penalties we only had 4 vs ou's 5. Prior we were averaging over 10 per GAME, iirc. Imo, this is a factor of both the less complex blocking scheme, quicker throws and moving the pocket in addition to just playing better and pulling their heads out of their assess. We beat them in every single key offensive stat, and as much as we love to shit on OU and Venables their defense is actually pretty good. For all these reasons I really do think this was among Sark's best game plan and game adjustments he's made during his tenure. It provides me some cautious optimism because we've sadly seen him go right back to what wasn't working despite all evidence he shouldn't.
  23. Rolled the pocket more, altered running lane choices, quicker flat and cross route throws. Fewer OL stunts and more down blocking.
