  1. If Urban does take over do we get another looksy from the Brocks?
  2. Funny you would say this - this is exactly my thoughts in terms of how UT admin sees the sports programs at UT. They want us like Stanford or Cal where women's sports win more than the men and admission policies are top 4% .. that is where they want the institution. Research, Public Ivy and oh yeah.. we win some sports every now and then but only the ones that are not as barbaric as football. This is why whenever anybody says UT should join the SEC I roll my eyes.. Never in a million years will the UT Admin want to rub elbows with the likes of Miss State, Auburn or Alabama - I'm sure they held their noses when the stupid farmers came around. They want Stanford, Cal, UNC, Virginia, etc.
  3. This entire album is spot on. I think that run of six albums from 78 to 84 you just don’t see anymore. I loved all the little guitar only bits he put in - eruption, Spanish fly, cathedral, the intro to mean streets. Man.. this one stings.
  4. Anybody who came of age in the late 70s and dropped the needle on VH1; it just was wasn’t the same since especially for us guitar players. I was just blown away. Every summer a new VH album came out and my friends and I waited. VH1 - VH2 - Woman and children first - Fair Warning ... I loved them all. Just a taste of the swing and rhythm of Eddie
  5. Here's the thing.. I looked back at over 30 years of football since I've left the 40 acres. 1 - A Heisman Winner - I loved that year and honestly, I never thought I would see one at Texas in my lifetime. Thank you Ricky 2 - A National Championship - Thank you Mack and for the one more we could have had if you weren't so stupid as to run Colt into a stacked front 4 3 - A Sugar Bowl win.. that was good.. that's balanced against the butt whipping we took from VT and Drukenmiller (sp) at same bowl. 4 - A couple of Cotton Bowl wins and one ass kicking from Miami. That was fun. 5 - Countless Holiday bowls and Alamo bowls -- whatever That's it I think. I have zero faith in anybody Texas brings in. This issue goes very deep into the culture at the University of Texas. Royal was right to walk away.
  6. I also like how he looked the receiver down the entire throw... including the incompletion.. and.. including the interception.. Also, I like how Dylan Moses trucked that farmer. sigh... wish he was ours.
  7. I don’t know why inebriate get invested every year.
  8. I'd like to think, in my perfect world, that Leach took the MSU job just so he could bend aggy over. I agree w/ you here, the aggy culture surely insults his intelligence and he sees his job as stomping on them whenever possible.
  9. This is correct - they have no back end defense to contend w/ what the pirate is going to throw (literally) at them. 5 wide / 4 wide sets are going to kill aggy. Their pass rush will be nullified by how fast the Pirate gets the ball out. It's going to be glorious. I picture multiple crossing patterns across the middle and wide receivers running free.
  10. aggy is ranked....How I have no idea. Look for Alabama to make a statement. 48-10 Quality win (right)
  11. Not to derail this but I believe, anecdotally, that at some point fund raising is going to take a hit. I just don’t see the influx of students the top % rule is bringing in will dig into their pockets to give to UT sports or organizations at Texas. I know friends of mine who went to UT whose children attended hyper competitive public and private schools who were not granted admission and have stopped giving. Their kids go out of state or worse - Baylor.
  12. This is absolutely correct. On both answers. Full credit. Talent on the 40 acres has taken a nose dive.
  13. Ahhhh. Well. Lord help me. While I was awarded a degree from Texas I may, at times, not use it. Thx
  14. Kagan was never a judge. https://www.wsj.com/articles/many-justices-were-never-judges-before-appointment-11552596987
  15. Kagan has no judicial experience prior to nomination. https://www.wsj.com/articles/many-justices-were-never-judges-before-appointment-11552596987
  16. There is no way they stay at #10 after this showing.
  17. Stupid farmers. They flex after every play.
  18. I’m done. With it all. Watching the pirate. His kids don’t roll over and quit.
  19. GD!! I could see that coming from my couch. Come on!!!!
  20. Going to need to control the clock with run game. We are really jittery on defense.
  21. I really wanted the land thieves undefeated when we pound them but I will take this as well.
