  1. Mack had players running wild. Aaron Hernandez killed at least one person, and possibly three. He was a full on psychopath. That wasn't really UM's fault, but he did seem to help cover up some warning signs. Regardless, it was more than some players running wild. Though still well short of Baylor/Penn State level shit.
  2. Not having an off-season would be a better excuse if the offense started off poorly and showed improvement over the course of the season. Which is happening on defense. We're seeing the opposite on offense. That side of the ball is regressing other than Bijan. We've been at our best at the end of games when we aren't running our scheme, whatever that is.
  3. Is "big donor" a euphemism for fisting now?
  4. If this is the dumb question thread, what is the rest of Surly for?
  5. Our offense looked good against UTEP and Tech. Otherwise we've been regressing every game. Sam has to be injured, but we aren't doing anything to help him either. We've had weird personnel decisions (Bijan getting 5 carries in a half, everything we do with our TEs), crappy o-line play, conservative play calls, receivers can't get separation, etc.
  6. There is no combination of Oklahoma and sperm that I want to know anything about.
  7. Surly has very low, if any, standards in most areas. Apparently, fisting is not one of them.
  8. Two years is not much to go on. That said, looking back at Houston's S/P+ ratings, Herman was not all that different from Tony Levine or Applewhite on the offensive side (though 2018 showed a significant improvement) and he had Ward as a junior and senior. Herman was better overall due to defense (2016) and special teams. Maybe we should hire that Orlando guy. I wonder how he would have done with another year at Houston. It's interesting that Applewhite was done in by defense and special teams, but his 2018 was by far the best offense. Yr Total Off Def ST 2014 56 54 44 113 2015 53 41 69 29 2016 39 56 27 29 2017 43 43 57 94 2018 64 20 106 47
  9. I hear what Urban is saying, but there's an implicit assumption that any coach can be successful. Some people suck at their job and others will never be more than mediocre. Trust, work ethic, and selflessness may be necessary for a team to reach its potential. Coaching (including recruiting, development, and scheme) sets the ceiling though unless you have a transcendent talent like Vince Young. Most coaches aren't Urban Meyer or Saban or Dabo and never will be. No matter how many Ohio State coaches he hires, Herman just is not in Urban's league and will never achieve the same level of success. He can do better than losing to TCU and squeaking by Tech, but I think Texas expects more than that.
  10. 2-0 with a game ending safety in the seventh overtime. Years from now we can tell our grand kids about the time Tom Herman dropped a deuce on his way out the door.
  11. Mike Tomlin has a hat surgically attached to his head. Does that count?
  12. I hope you're talking about fisting and not who should be our next coach.
  13. At the moment, Wisconsin is kicking the crap out of Michigan and Harbaugh has a mask over his headset so it looks like he's sucking a dick.
  14. UCLA would love if we hired Kelly. That's all you need to know.
  15. I should of known that would bother you. I'm going to take that as a complement.
  16. Makes me nauseous when a misuse of a word becomes so common!
  17. He's got to earn the title. The Penultimate Fister Champion! If he comes in second.
  18. The penultimate fister and... the other fister.
  19. Is futureman the South Austin's mom of fisting now?
  20. I admit that I am completely ignorant when it comes to Ohio football. Though I'd be happy if Texas hired Urban Meyer even if he came from a total shit hole like Oklahoma. (And before anyone comments, yes, I know Darrell Royal is from Oklahoma.)
  21. That's a fair point, though by that metric, I think Louisiana, Maryland and some other random states are probably higher than Ohio.
  22. Just to be clear, I don't give a shit about Ohio. Why the fuck would I?
  23. Let's not pretend Ohio is a top tier state for HS football. It may be better than Michigan, but it isn't in the same tier as Texas, California, and Florida. I'd put it behind most of the SEC states too.
