  1. You can't publicly shit on the football coach and team while he's still employed. It'd leave a bad look. While we as fans would like it. It just would not go over well creating a bigger shit storm than it already is. The last paragraph where he talks about being 2-2 isn't where we want to be. Is more telling imo. That's a shot across the bow to Herman saying your time on limited time so if advise you to not shit on the season anymore than you have already. 

    Just seems like a SOP weekly address. You’re right, can’t shit on the coach. Gotta address things like everything’s normal since there have been no actions taken. Only other thing to do is not release your weekly letter, and then that just adds to the storm.

     

    Without a firm defense of Tom himself, this letter doesn’t tell me anything outside of no final decisions have been made.

    Shanahan has zero interest in coaching in CFB. Thats coming from someone that knows Kyle.

    Kyle doesn't strike me as a guy who'd go CFB over NFL. Dude's been around the league his whole life. 

    But am curious if any of the BMDs would push hard for it, and if he'd at least listen for two seconds. That's my main interest, because I seriously doubt he'd jump, and honestly not sure how well he'd do.

    I think the "next loss" thing is just cover bc we don't have the replacement lined up yet. If Urban was done, I don't think Tom coaches another game.

    Kinda what it feels like to me. Feels like it's possible he's gone immediately after the next loss, but that he's being allowed to walk around dead for now because a replacement is not locked in. Not sure I agree with the approach or not, but optics and such.

    The next loss thing if accurate is a bunch of fucking maggot infested horse shit. 

    I was already off the Tom wagon but in dwelling on it more this past Saturday I experienced what is my lowest moment as a Texas fan.  I've been at bad losses: 2001 B12 game, All the Stoops horse fuckings of Mack. I was at the game when Mackovic first shit the bed against TCU in FW and watched in horror when Charlie got drilled there in 2015.  Route 66, Coin Toss Bumble Fuck,  Houston Nutt throwing the Horns down and on and on.  I've seen a lot of shit in person but Saturday was the worst.  Why? Because that third quarter made me feel as utterly helpless as a fan, so helpless I felt like a hostage the Taliban is slowly ripping the finger nails out of before they ultimately cut off my head. 

    There in the unrelenting sun of a mostly empty Cotton Bowl I watched us come out of halftime tied only to go 3 and out (losing ~10 yards in the process) and then proceed to give up a long punt return followed by a patented OU quick strike 3 play TD drive.  That was bad.  Get the ball back.  3 plays and 9 yards....punt.  Then finger nail by finger nail under a cloudless sky OU went on the most tortuous demoralizing drive I've ever witnessed.  17 plays of Lincoln Reilly and that rat face Spencer Rattler jamming their cocks up every single burnt orange ass who had been able to make it to the Cotton Bowl over and over and over and over until finally their 30th string RB plunged the final cock in from one yard to mercifully end it.  Then three and out again and by that point the quarter was gone.

    I've never felt like that as a Texas fan, it was a uniquely excruciating experience.  Fuck you Tom Herman for that.  Throwing you off the tower is too good for you.  

    can you sign my book?
