Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
How does your lack of reading comprehension speak to my ignorance? I said the support staff stuff looks like the 9.95 equivalent of wagging the dog. It had nothing to do with flip-flopping.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2022 - Idiotic Slapfights Unrelated To 2022 Recruiting
Somebody's manager seems a little sensitive today. Nothing in my post was angry nor was I mocking insiders. They are salesman and they're selling the perception that they know shit. I'm sure some do and others don't. If they're good, we can't tell one from the other. If they're really good we don't care. Our support staff may completely suck. CDC may be awful. I have no idea. So you're right, I can't present a credible argument to counter that. But here's the thing - you haven't made a credible argument that supports it. I believe that's called an "argument from ignorance." Two months ago, Texas had momentum, recruits loved us, and we were gettin errbody! I don't recall seeing stories about the support staff then. Fast forward a couple of months, 9.95ers get a string of recruits wrong and now Glasscock is an uninspired choice and Searels is disappointing and Brandon Harris isn't connecting with recruits. The accusations are vague, yet have a very specific target like CDC or Glasscock. The information isn't really measurable or meaningful, but sounds plausible and reinforces the idea that the author really is tied into the program and recruiting. Does the support staff suck? Maybe. But I haven't seen anything that supports a conclusion either way that doesn't amount to, "Trust me because I know things and all those things I was wrong about... hey look, there's a squirrel!"

How did people decide CDC or the recruiting support staff are the problem? Is that from 9.95ers? The same ones who don't seem to know shit about anything? This happened when we hired Sark. No one had a clue who we were going to hire yet knew the inner workings of the decision making process? Now we get the same stories in recruiting. You were wrong about where player X was going, but somehow know they didn't choose Texas because of the recruiting support staff? Really? I see why "insiders" put that shit out, but I'm less clear on why anyone would believe them.

That's towards the tame and tasteful end of the famous athlete fashion spectrum.

Haskins misses last play of the game to take a selfie
For the record, the correct answer is: figure out the Surly consensus and then do the opposite.

Asking Surly for marriage advice. What could possibly go wrong?

2021 Texas Offseason: Sark Attacks Austin
QB runs are a means to an end. Well, not in Herman's offense... There was a good video series on Chip Kelly's offense at Oregon that broke down the use of inside and outside zone. The ultimate goal was to make defenders choose who they were going to defend and then make sure that was the wrong choice. He didn't use deception and even telegraphed the plays by alignment. That served his purpose because he wanted the defender to be decisive. It is a good example of having a coherent approach and understanding what you want and what you don't. The opposite of what Mack Brown did has last few years. For Kelly, QB runs were just a mechanism for punishing the decision. From what I can tell, Sarkisian looks at the defense as a whole. Instead of forcing a single player to commit to a specific ball carrier, his goal is to create space for backs and receivers and simple reads for the QB. QB runs just aren't that important for what he wants to accomplish.

Arkansas is Sark's Maryland. There's no excuse for losing short of some horrible string of injuries.

Statistically speaking, that's probably a safe bet around here.

I don't know if it's the proximity to Oklahoma or what, but Dallas has an unusually high number of douche bags per capita.

Apparently, none of them could find the stadium. It was their first time visiting campus and they had to ask for directions. Most of the people they approached thought they were homeless and walked by without acknowledging them. Those who did acknowledge them all said some variation of, "hey dumbass, did you notice everyone else walking in the same direction towards that really large building that looks suspiciously like a stadium?" They never did find it and left Austin vowing never to send their children to Texas.

We also missed out on Reggie McNeal, who I hear was even better than VY.

He's the Jerome Bettis of receivers. A guy his shape shouldn't move the way he moves.
