  1. Fair Right now we're all hustling after scraps of info, none of which is proven to be true CFB is truly magical
  2. interior of that plane doesn't match the interior from Carl's photo, at least not in the link below. Not sure if that's a stock photo or if there's remodeling or whatever. Also none of the people listed on the company website have Texas ties https://prijet.com/owner/TAURUS V141 LLC
  3. On the one hand, this not being on OSU's radar could mean that we are making too much of this and it's really not that close to happening On the other, the school getting left is often the last to know (see Bru McCoy, both times)
  4. The holdup is likely Pantoni and Marrotti. And as much as we might not like it, there's a good chance that A) Urban doesn't want to take on the health risks without the guys that have been with him his entire career and B) they don't want to leave a good job at Ohio State given all the risks at Texas (having to rebuild, Urban could leave early, etc.). And it's not like Ohio State couldn't match a big money offer.
  5. Been combing through NFL staff rosters and I'm just putting it out there https://www.newyorkjets.com/team/coaches-roster/mack-brown
  6. Normally I fact check posts about OB info with a friend's login (they get misquoted a lot on here) but Anwar hasn't posted anything since the game and there's no way in hell I'm listening to 75 minutes of Anwar and Ketch breaking down the loss to see if he mentions it there Cristobal is my #2 though. Everyone loves a tier list: 2021 HC tier list S: Urban A: Cristobal B: Campbell, Fickell C: Napier, Harsin, Malzahn D: Fleck, Franklin, Tom
  7. Just keepin my enemies close and my HC closer
  8. Ok, so I'm on the Urban train. I don't believe he's a good person, and I was very much saying he should be fired by OSU during the Zach Smith drama, but I'll compartmentalize that and enjoy the trophies if we hire him. I do want to hear the other side though. As far as I know, there was nothing else at OSU or pre-UF. I know he coached Aaron Hernandez and a couple other bad dudes at UF, but did he actively cover up for them? There's a big difference. This article goes over some stuff but I'm wondering if there's more. I watched the Carlos Hyde video and it's not terrible. Hitting women is bad but it's nowhere near Joe Mixon or Ray Rice. Being suspended a quarter of the season seems about right if the slap is all he did wrong. I read the Aaron Hernandez wikipedia page and it seems like Urban wasn't complicit in that. If Belichick doesn't get blame for that I'm not sure Urban should either. So if someone could summarize all the dirt on Urban I would really appreciate it.
  9. Ok so checking back on this comment I made after Tech. I thought that some minor improvements would make our defense good enough to win the conference. And those improvements have been made, specifically in tackling and LB play. Our DBs still get beat but I've come to accept that as part of life. Just do other things well and you can still play winning defense. I said 27-30 ppg would be good enough to get us to 9 wins and a CCG. We're allowing 30.2 PPG in regulation in conference play. Given our remaining matchups, I bet we get under 30 by the end of the season. Now that 9 win CCG berth was assuming our offense was going to be good. So fuck me for trusting Herman to not shit all over his side of the ball I guess. Lastly, Joseph Ossai.
  10. Ok new idea Hire Urban midseason but have him keep his job at Fox and just use every segment he has to recruit on national tv
  11. I wouldn't hate it if we went for it. We were coming allowing a very long drive that wore our defense down. A three and out risked going down three scores with an exhausted defense.
  12. I'm not coming here to clear Sam of a poor play on that 3rd and 1 because it was bad no matter how you look at it, but I don't think the decision to go deep is that terrible. The guys underneath are wide open but Bijan is three yards behind the defense. It's just a bad throw. Third and short is a great time to take deep shots if you're in four down territory, but the coach and QB have to be on the same page. Sam stayed on the field as if he thought they would go for it but then Tom punted. I think the underneath options are the right move, but if Bijan is the primary read on the play and he's open, then it makes sense for Sam to make the throw without going through his progressions. Anyways all I'm saying is that I understand where Sam is on that play. But it's a bad snap whether you hate the decision or the throw.
  13. The entire thing reads more like a fan post than an insider scoop, which is basically what Ketch is. He buys the scenario that Meyer is coaching here in 2021 but there's no substance behind it
  14. Anyway... Chip's podcast this week was an interview with some ohio state journalist. One interesting thing was that he said Meyer's deal with Ohio State was worked out behind the seasons. The AD wasn't involved. It was just one BMD and an intermediary and everything was lined up before Luke Fickell was fired. Obligatory FCB
  15. Yes, let's hire the guy with infamous mechanics and accuracy as our QB coach
  16. Herman and co. do that too. Pretty sure most CFB coaches do that with local sites.
  17. That's basically my impression I do think they really want Herman gone though
  18. They've said he should be fired but are weirdly fixated on CDC as well
  19. LSU this year is going through the pains we had last year LSU last year is what we were supposed to be this year (I mean we weren't actually going to be as good as LSU last year but you get my point)
  20. The only positive takeaway from waiting on the firing is that sooners don't get the satisfaction of being the team that finished off Herman
  21. Anybody have this athletic article? https://twitter.com/ChrisVannini/status/1315818592802402305?s=20
  22. I'd add Cristobal and Malzahn to tier 2
  23. Urban (or whoever) should have a pretty loaded roster for a first year HC. The 2018 class is a big disappointment thus far but there's lots of talent there. The OL will probably be terrible but an elite HC should be able to win right away. So 9-4 would be fine but I wouldn't be surprised by more This could all go to shit if we hold on to Herman too long and everyone transfers though
  24. Four weeks in to 2018, we lost to Maryland, played Tulsa close, beat USC by 23, then beat TCU by 15. We were ranked 18 and things were trending up with us having stopped TCU's win streak and knowing that wins against Kansas State and OU in the next two weeks would put us on track for the conference championship and more. Sam was emerging as a great QB and the offense's identity was forming around physicality, LJH, and a good enough run game. The team was together. Even after Maryland and Tulsa there weren't hints of clashes like we've had since October last year. This year is nothing like 2018.
