  1. I'm not sure your point. I really don't care how Quinn does in the pros. I hope he gets drafted high and if he does well thereafter, great, it reflects well on the UT program, but as far as any investment in his future goes? Nah. It does raise an issue -- why is he "injury prone"? Is it physiological? Is it his style of play, perhaps related to his inability to navigate the pocket and avoid big hits? I have no idea.
  2. Fuck you. Seriously. There's no "cult" here, it's just people trying to inject a little sanity into the narrative constantly pushed by Arch fanbois. I hope Arch is WAY better than Quinn. That would be a good thing. If he's a little bit better, that would be a good thing, too. I root for Texas, and I don't knob-slob as a middle-aged man over some fucking kid.
  3. Holy shit, that's a lot of rationalization.
  4. He also ran for a TD. 3 passing, 1 rushing. Oh, the horror. Fucksticks.
  5. Do you ever consider the good things? His performance against ASU was essentially dead even with those against UMich and UF, as per QBR.
  6. In Austin: Officials confirm first case of measles in Austin
  7. If I had to choose between Q Snyder and RT, I actually think I'd go with RT.
  8. No idea. More importantly, I don't give a shit.
  9. I remember when we were greedy for taking a $20M annual payout from ESPN. Anybody else remember that?
  10. To this point: I talk about my daughter too much, but she is dealing with this exact thing, a conflict between an immediate opportunity in music vs wrapping up her undergrad at UT and moving on to a PhD program. I have yet to speak with a single prof in her department who says a year or two chasing the rock star dream will hurt her chances at an elite PhD program. In fact, they all pretty much concede the opposite. It is really difficult to stand apart from all one's peers when everyone has the same track record. Schools and employers are looking for things that set candidates apart. I don't think there is anything wrong with encouraging kids to branch out a bit in their early 20s.
  11. With absolutely no evidence, just a gut feel, I'd bet there are at least a dozen D1 coaches who could do better than RT with this exact budget. There is no reason to stick with him.

    SXSW 2025

    I remember when no club would print "Fuckemos" on their media or even their marquee.
  13. Oh man, you just had to lob the turd into the punchbowl, didn't you?
  14. Yeah, I got a lot of dad work in driving my kid all over Texas and Oklahoma for soccer, not to mention to and from multiple practices each week.
  15. In what world is Terry doing "ok"?
  16. We didn't win a national title in the 90s. 1983 and 2002.
  17. Fayette County, close enough. A kangaroo wearing a red jacket has been captured and returned to his owner: Jack the red jacket wearing kangaroo
