  1. Please don't let me discourage your Cheez-It aspirations and dreams.... BUT there is a simpler answer.
  2. I watched him a good deal and think when given space/time he was top notch. I think similar to Texas' QB more of his issues were team and youth related than ability limitations. It's extremely off putting particularly the logical tone.
  3. Why not both tacos. Being excited about the bowl doesn't exempt me from wanting changes so we aren't in the same boat next year.
  4. I'm excited about playing Michigan and many others are too. I'll be even more excited when changes to address the issues of last year regarding coaching staff are addressed. BUT - 2 of our 3 rivals are in the CFP and I reserve the right to be twitchy about that reality.
  5. Texas fans expectations have always been make conference championship game and hopefully win. They have also expected Texas somewhere in or very close to top 10. Failing that has always created consternation among Texas fans and they aren't alone. Michigan, Bama, OSU, ND, OU etc etc etc all expected that prior to the CFP. When they didn't yes, there was lots of frustration and anger. Meeting those expectations would get a Texas or any of the other teams in the CFP, just ask Bama. However, now, rather than 1 or 2 bowl games that determine "the best team" with 90% subjective criteria of mediots the teams actually get to play it out. People love to bemoan the CFP, the committee and yearn for yesteryear. Well, the world hasn't changed THAT much, just the voters have much less on final say on the national champion than the actual teams. That's a good thing.
  6. You clearly know jack shit about Texas' search criteria for position coaches. Let me help. 1) Do they have a stripper girlfriend 2) If yes, does that girlfriend own a monkey 3) If yes, is that monkey violent and prone to biting -if yes then - Hire and never fire that fine coaching staff asset. If no to all- 1) Have they coached at Texas before? 2) If yes, are in AARP? 3) If yes, do they have ties to FUPM? 4) If yes, has the game passed them by and are they inferior to the person they are replacing? If yes to all - hire them immediately If no to all- 1) Do they have zero history in that position historically? 2) If yes, are they yes men that have no skills and clearly are willing to flounder around indefinitely? - If yes to all hire them immediately and keep them no matter what.
  7. Has Akina entered the portal yet?
  8. But you're solid with JMU, Tulane, Ole Miss and Miami? I keed but there are so many different reasons to mock this CFP result picking the dumbest thing about the committee and its "process" is impossible. Just so much stupid.
  9. I would say the exact same thing for Akina, Brandon Harris and Chris Jackson. If substantial changes aren't made in those area.. I don't think any real changes are coming.
  10. Well, you could just try posting content discussion about the game rather than bitching about content you don't like in the thread.
  11. You mock others for wasting their time arguing fruitless points. Yet, here you are, on a college football forum, writing a long post explaining why people shouldn't bother discussing one of the most central points of online college football talk since the internet was invented by Al Gore. You should find some Anime forums and tell them why focusing their attention on cartoons and debating which is best is a massive waste of time.
  12. And a victory over OSU and Oregon.
  13. Yeah but our "great" coach prior was Butter Teeth and Coach Swip Swap Swill post. Maybe hire someone who has a winning track record at the P4 level consistently. Not sure why Texas decision makers always need the the redemption arch or hottest new unproven.
  14. My entire point is we have fuck all to do with the shitty choices Texas decision makers have regarding head coaches. Further, that Cignetti's resume prior was better, longer and more complete than any of the last 3 Texas hires and suprise, suprise his next step was better too. Would I have seen it as a better hire, yes. Would he have been my top choice, no. Would it have been preferable to any of the last 3, yes. I didn't bring up the topic in this thread, feel free to go back and find who did and complain to them. @BurntOrange&White nailed it.
  15. As opposed to say, a guy who averaged 7-6 for 5 years at Washington and went 9-4 in his single full season at USC before being let go the next year mid season. You're right, no way Cignetti's resume would stack up to that level of domination. 53-17 at IUP (.757 winning %) 47-9 at JMU (.840 winning %) Surely he'd fail at the P4 level: 23-2 at IU for a .920 winning % bringing him to a lifetime of .785 No way!!! But coach Cougar High in the AAC to 22-4 (84.6%), that's a sure fire coaching hire. OR going 37-15 (71.2 wp) at Louisville in the power house ACC for your complete HC resume is plenty. Your post is stupid and you should feel bad for posting it.
  16. You might want to check the Sark thread and late in the Arch thread. There is now a divide of back to back CFPs put it on the wall, better than Herman or Strong, and we can't do any better vs the math and behaviors compared against any equal level spenders doesn't work out, the plans are shitty, the position coaches suck and we need better results group. So, pretty much like every time Texas makes a bad football HC hire there is the fear of change head in the sand, rah rah support your coach and the our coach is not good divisions. It takes absolute failure for the yay team guys to see the light, every time. No amount of data will sway them.
  17. Honestly, it's rape the brand for any and all value. Drive football and any other sports brand equity as high as possible, lots and lots of "remote" learning, get rid of any and all expensive employees that don't deliver additional revenue directly or aren't marketable, then when it's dry, sell it back to the state or let it fold. Expect to see University of Utah remote learning adds during games, lots of roster turn over, and coaching changes as deemed necessary.
  18. This is unfortunately the truth, basically do whatever the fuck you want. No need to stay consistent or even logical. Apply rules when you feel like it or it helps your personal agenda or don't as you see fit. Logic and reason need not apply and if at all possible you should neglect some deserving teams in order to include multiple G5s because nobody gives a shit about the games they will play in the CFP. This isn't about money or logic, it's about agendas and stupidity. The more the better. With TONS of Regards, The morons who designed this cluster fuck. @notre dame joe Your biggest beef should be with G5 or with your athletics department for not joining one of those also ran conferences.
  19. Basically, yes.
  20. I think it's rational to think that had aggie lost to only ND and Texas they would be out and Texas and ND both would be in. The ND win held aggie in the top 10 all season. They lose they run to Texas they are in the top 10, just. The Texas loss puts them at 12-15 and Texas at 11 or 12.
  21. I wanna know why ND hasn't picked a fight with Ole Miss. If there is one team that could have gotten moved out and nobody buy Ole Miss fans would have been upset about, it's them. FSU lost a QB and they were out. Ole Miss lost their HC and all the offensive staff, but they remain. That's the oddest one of the committee insanity, imo.
  22. I concur that Magic Hat was more qualified for a playoff spot than PedoMotherMary. Ive not closely examined BYU vs Bama but you're absolutely correct the committee fucked them while protecting Bama. Maybe at some point the one guy who'd been yelling about TV dollars in the back of the room and why G5 sucked resonated with the idiots and they thought, gotta keep Sankey happy and Bama is good for the pocket books.
  23. I honestly think part of Vanderbilt's investments in football was their ability to forecast this issue specifically. They've always been a good baseball school. They know the SEC tie in helps. Being THE football bottom feeder had future potential financial and sports implications. Interestingly, in Nashville I think I see more Preds gear than Titans gear and there are more women interested in those game, minor league baseball and Vandy than Titans, at least according to my dating profile research and attention draw goes.
