  1. Regarding Burton's analysis - The one thing I seem to continually yell at the TV is that Texas needs to move the chains. It's seems always about the big chunk play instead of moving the ball down the field. We abandon the run at any chance we can it seems - 2nd and 4 - let's throw a bomb instead of moving the chains. Our 5 star freshman running back goes for 7.. let's pull him and not keep feeding him.. It's exhausting. F Herman.
  2. Just a quick glance - in the 2000's to now Mac McWhorter or Stacy Searels - both Mack Brown... that's it.. Two in 20 years who produced draft ready offensive lineman. That's embarrassing. I'm sure there are more out there who did a fine job.. but.. really.. two?
  3. I'm at a loss to understand why we can't get this hire right.. Who was the last good OL coach we had? It can't be that difficult... Am I crazy? I would think we could just go get the Wisconsin OL coach each year we need one. They seem to always have a bruising line. Or whoever is recruiting OL at Alabama.
  4. Just another datapoint about how bad our OL is. Oklahoma blowing huge holes in TCUs line. All the time in the world to pass.
  5. Voted for Biden. First And only democratic vote in my life, since I pulled the lever for Reagan. I can’t have that man one more day running this country. I didn’t vote for president in 2016. Couldn’t vote for Clinton didn’t want to vote for Trump so no vote. He’s an ass hat.
  6. This is true. I don’t get it. I would say it’s bc they don’t pay for their cars .... on average... but my wife paid for a new Volvo herself before married... crashed it into stationary objects about 3 times in the span of a year or so.
  7. Any find them in stores around me but agree. I buy them if I see them anywhere. They’re awesome.
  8. Finally. Someone who feels my pain. Every other person on this board can take immense pleasure I. The wonderful things their kids are doing.... I will take joy in the simple things... like shoes and washes hair.
  9. This is 100% correct. Take a drive down Shoal Creek and tell me they want cars on the road. Between the Lance Armstrong wanna be crowd and the delusional rail crowd, where are you people from? You should own property to be able to vote on tax increases. I voted no. Would vote a million times no if I could. Wtf does austin need a tunnel let alone some rail boondoggle. Feel like I’m living in the Simpson’s monorail episode full time.
  10. I hate that SOB as much as the next man but that MFer can win football games and recruit. When Texas got McWilliams there was a small part of me that wanted Switzer.
  11. Step right into my recruiting nightmare. No way they get out with only 1 one loss.
  12. Was so looking forward to Leach beating up aggy. Not a chance.
  13. Nice. We got Adrian Walker instead. Just another in a long line of missed opportunities. Who knows.
  14. Not gonna lie. This is one RB (and Peterson) I really wanted on the 40 acres.
  15. Just to clarify, when I say F the eyes I mean football players can sing not sing it ...don’t care. Stop losing. And by that I mean stop paying this shitty coach.
  16. I hope we do find a way. I’m just tired of the whole issue compounded with the beatings I’m sure we all take in our offices every Monday.

  18. My opinion, based on 30 plus years, with a blip here and there, of futility on the field... F the Eyes... win football games. Stop embarrassing us alums with that crap you are trotting out there every a Saturday.
  19. This is the correct answer to those who saw him - He had the best lean I've ever seen in a running back. He looked like he was running w/ his pads about 2 feet off the ground.. always forward. Being from West Texas, I loved to watch him run..
  20. Who would take over until we get whomever if he’s canned mid season. I don’t remember any Texas coach getting canned mid season.
  21. If Urban does take over do we get another looksy from the Brocks?
  22. 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.
  23. 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.
  24. 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
