    Hire a new coach who had exactly 3 losses in his last two seasons at a powerish school including a Sugar Bowl win? Texas did do that.
  2. Huckleberry
    No, I'm talking about the reasoning being that none of them have caught touchdowns in national championship games. I agree the group as a whole may be weaker (but as someone else mentioned you're talking top 2 while as pass catching threats the top 3 next season may be better - no disrespect to Whittington but he made lots plays when the design made it easy but brought a ton of other value), but leaning on that is silly. It means almost no team ever has a great receiving corps heading into a season.
  3. Huckleberry
    No but it was funny because you're being absurd.
  4. Huckleberry
    Median is an average.
  5. Huckleberry
    Yep, I graduated in '99 and used TEX every semester. My Goodbye and Good Luck cap was like a beacon for 45 and older fans at the Sugar Bowl while those under that age didn't give it a second look.

    I figure leave it. We don't have threads for other individual schools' coaching searches usually. And his replacement is directly related.
  7. Huckleberry
    But what if we have to play DeBoer?!?!
  8. Huckleberry
    The issue is that it might not be completely his choice.
  9. Huckleberry
    A guy who has been coaching way longer has way more results? No way.
  10. Huckleberry
    Most of it was pretty good but a guy who knows that cheating and breaking rules was part of his dominance preaching about the importance of an even playing field was pretty gross.
  11. Huckleberry
    Correct. This is not embarrassing for the NATAS. They judge the show, why would anyone think they need to know the name of every person who worked on it?

    I look forward to Texas's next coaching search when dozens of whiners on this board or whatever iteration takes its place cry about how our coaching searches are so embarrassing and completely forget how the vast majority of coaching searches at other big time programs look the exact same.

    Was able to copy the text by stopping the page load before the website caught up. Sorry for formatting.

    I mean he's a great coach who doesn't seem to like recruiting all that much. Seems like a smart move for him even if it's bad for the Huskies.
  15. Huckleberry
    So you're saying to get better he will need to improve. Interesting analysis.
  16. Huckleberry
    I know right, Texas did that totally backwards, you're supposed to overpay for a coach's history and then after he doesn't produce he gets fucking paid. Again. /A&M

    You're worried even though the books are still saying they're more likely to hire James fucking Franklin? I'll worry once Sarkisian is second behind Lanning.

    With respect to the argument that it was all Tom Brady, here are playoff scores from their titles together. 16-13, 24-17, 20-17 over perhaps the best offense ever at the time 17-14, 24-14, 32-29, two titles and Brady's offense scored 25 points exactly once in 6 playoff wins so far and averaged 22.2 ppg (average NFL offense) 20-3, 41-27, 24-21 --------- (this is the transition) 35-31, 45-7, 28-24 their 4th title was the first one where the offense produced well in the playoffs 34-16, 36-17, 34-28 41-28, 37-31, 13-3(!!!) 4 out of their 6 titles together don't happen if their defense wasn't excellent when it mattered. They were both awesome and neither would have won nearly as much without the other. And the above doesn't even include Brady leading one of the greatest offenses ever to the below playoff scores 31-20, 21-12, 14-17 Averaged 36.8 ppg in the season then 22 in the playoffs.
  20. Huckleberry
    Wow, hadn't seen that. Maybe my Pedro point is the exception that proves the rule.
  21. Huckleberry
    Sarkisian, Smart, any smart ones concerned with their legacy. Following Saban in Tuscaloosa right as NIL and the portal hit is a career killing waiting to happen.
  22. Huckleberry
    Patiently waiting for @satyanash to explain how Saban's retirement is bad for Texas.
  23. Huckleberry
    Now wait a damn second. I've seen Pedro demonstrate pitch grips on MLB Network in a suit so your policy has a flaw.
  24. Huckleberry
    Seems perfect for the Big 12, tbh.

    Hey look everyone, slorch is being stupid again. Accusations with absolutely zero examples ever. slorch, Texas Tech is the biggest piece of shit institution ever even worse than Baylor and Penn State. But you think they're as pure as the driven snow, yes sir. Angelic Texas Tech. But don't bother asking for examples, I'll just post another stupid copout like "you just don't want to see it" or similar faux intellectual garbage. Please, I'm on pins and needles waiting for your response where you claim I'm upset while making this post even though everyone realizes I'm just mocking your tired BS.
