  1. Bump. Is it still true that DirectTV Stream carries LHN? Some old articles and forum discussions mention LHN is available as a region-specific (Texas) channel on DirectTV Stream. However, when I just checked the regional channels for my zip code directly on the DirectTV Stream website, LHN does not show up on the list (AT&T Sports and Bally do). So, I’m thinking DirectTV might have dropped LHN at some point recently.
  2. To be fair, the Huskers just played an entire game while taking a giant shit, and posted it to a national broadcast.
  3. 10/10, would fap to again
  4. Congrats on the big promotion, Dean! You were one of my favorite profs. Pretty cool that you hang with surly degens during your down time.
  5. I've refrained from piling in with herd on mocking your pessimism, but holy shit, man. The substance of your conclusions boils down to "things have been bad in the past," "we lost games last season we shouldn't have" and "therefore, we are doomed to eternal mediocrity." No matter the topic at hand. You are clearly more intelligent and articulate than the ATM fan base, but your mindset is only a couple chromosomes away from "tu hasn't done shit since 2009," "lol 5-7," and "oh, the sips got a two 5-star QBs? Have fun losing to Kansas for forever!" In other words, you camp with aggie in responding to any optimism or positive data point re UT with negativity supported by history - history that in many cases is not determinative of the subject at hand. Will history continue to rhyme? Maybe. I don't know and hope not. What I do know is I'd rather make my experience as a fan as positive and enjoyable as it can be under the circumstances, which means viewing through the lens of optimism. That UT can free itself from recent history, throw it in a river and watch it as it floats under bridges and out of sight.
  6. Do you 'member when there was a horde of surly posters adamant about the fact that Charlie was guaranteed another year after the 2016 season? Do you 'member some of them sticking to that position even after his loss to Kansas? I 'member. Just saying, you get AT MOST a one-Kansas mulligan as HFB at Texas (it's still discouraged), and in general do not underestimate this program's willingness to cut bait on a coach if there is a bed shitting of epic proportion. There is no truly "guarantee" term, unsigned 5-stars and narratives be damned.
  7. You hear that? It's weeks of pressure spewing out of the football board and the universe shifting into harmony. A harmony where surly posters can join together in celebrating one of the few uncontroversial topics and storied pastimes of this community: shitting on $9.95ers. Enjoy it while it lasts.
  8. Live look at @closetohumping after narrowly escaping a run-in with @closetojumping at Atlanta airport Priority Pass lounge.
  9. As much as I hope my preferred QB is anointed starter, if Sark is putting out trial balloons and open to tailoring his choice based on reception of the media and internet fanbase, that is a red flag.
  10. With that trajectory, only has to wait a decade to join Hamm and friends in the 6-fig club.
  11. Sark really overlooked the need for talent in a critical area of the recruiting department.
  12. Better get used to being disappointed for many offseasons to come, bucko.
  13. Context is important. He made his ominous posts in a Longhorn sports subreddit. In the daily sports thread. A thread where it's middle of fall camp and football is the dominating topic of discussion. Right around the time where the QB decision looms large and is the most discussed topic. Given the context, it's logical for someone to infer what he was making a call about the football team in some way, and there being a big development being hinted at. Particularly where there is opportunity for OP to clarify any wrong inference. But what did ol'gordogg do? Doubled and tripled down with more vague hints and enticements. No CR, but it's like someone strolling into 4Chan /pol and saying "there's going to be some big news around Capital Hill tomorrow about a laptop, tune in to the news at noon," then wondering why frenzy ensues. Lastly, can't take the resident sleuth guard dog off the leash from time to time for the fun detective work, then be surprised when he takes a few bites at some random Reddit troll when things are slow. I've had my fun now, but no ragrets or sympathy.
  14. Hey man, I've actually grown to find your shtick entertaining more often than not (as evidence by even being able to see and respond to your post), but let's call a spade a spade.
  15. Look, we already have our established resident shitposters and trolls (@futureman, et. al.), and there's not a lot of emotional bandwidth for newcomers.
  16. The fanbase is pinning its hopes for a decent season on a particular QB starting. It's only natural someone would take advantage of the tension for their entertainment and troll, though not going to stop me from negging the bitch if he doesn't own it / pops up to defend it as simply speculation running wild.
  17. So this isn't you making a claim about some team-related personnel decision, regardless of whether made it in jest (to troll) / you're otherwise full of shit?
  18. Like like this is the program that will be on during the noon window tomorrow: Almost Sports with Jason Dick & CJ Morgan. Their (already very dubious) cachet took a huge hit upon seeing this.
  19. Apparently this guy on Reddit (username is gordogg24p) is involved in some capacity in a podcast called The Fire Steve Sarkisian Podcast. It's under the HornsCast umbrella, along with podcasts by IT, TFB and BarkingCarnival. Screencaps below.
  20. Let's not go into debate in here on the meaning of the "generational" tag and when its use is merited. If there was an appropriate time/place (debatable), it was months ago when it was in every $9.95'er writeup about Ewers. Please start a dedicated thread or kindly STFU and let us bask in the aura of our pets' heads falling off.
  21. The charade is up. Neyor needs to crawl over to the UTPD and fess up to his boot problem. It was wrong to pressure Agiye into being the fall guy when it was Neyor who deserved a knee-capping at the hands of the criminal justice system. I am beginning to question the strength of his moral fiber. IMO, he should offer to serve a voluntary one-year suspension in return for reinstating Agiye, effective immediately. Someone please start the petition.
