  1. Lol, I kept pushing "Save Post" because it wasn't completing the post. It's not very user friendly on the phone.
  2. He will, Sark isn't insane. He has an upperclassman QB with an impressive bowl win under his belt versus one right out of HS with tons of potential. That doesn't mean Card doesn't get a shot if Casey seriously struggles at times..but still. If they are equal in practice, you go with Casey because he proved himself in a real game, which also happened to be the last game Texas played. If Casey struggles, there is nothing wrong with giving Card a look. In that scenario, neither has a reason to feel discriminated against.
  3. I really, really like Casey. He seems very easy to root for. Dude is a son of a former Oklahoma QB and yet he stuck with us knowing he was not going to get a chance over Sam. Hope he gets his shot this season to show what he can do.
  4. I would take landing Disu over losing Greg Brown any day. We now have elite players at every position except PG, I think. I don't trust Ramey to play that position having seen him panic and turning over under pressure so many times. I am not sure you can teach someone to play point if you don't have the natural skillset. Who are going to play PG next season? Askew and Ramey? Is there anyone in the portal we are targeting?
  5. There is always this one guy. He calls it a #fakevirus on his tweeter page.
  6. "There is growing optimism the offensive line will be good this season and recently Kyle Flood said, “we are going to get better, and we are going to get better in a hurry.” So, our OL is good again?
  7. Can we give the new coaching staff at least a full off-season before jumping off the wagon?
  8. That was part of it for sure. Fenves didn't appreciate how important athletics was to our school until his final years here IMO. Wasn't he on record saying he was not a football fan? Now it seems like everyone on the administration gets it.
  9. Haha. That moron did say that but he was too arrogant to take advantage of it. Perhaps Mike Perrin didn't hammer it home that he had to hire the best assistants from around the country and Texas would open its wallet as necessary. Without the best supporting cast, you can't win it all in this era of college athletics. Even Ogre was able to win it all when he surrounded himself with elite assistants.
  10. We may still fail but it won't be for lack of giving our best efforts. I never felt like Texas cared about building a champion basketball program until now. That has be pumped.
  11. You see the same approach by Sark. Some ADs let the coach hire whoever they want and I think Perrin was like that. Tom brought in a very weak staff with him. So did Shaka. A smarter approach is what CDC is doing, which is to make sure the head coaches bring in the best assistants. The head coach can't do it by themselves no matter how good they are.
  12. I get that. My point was that these new hires were given a plan it seems unlike the previous hires who were left to their own devices and given that they came from smaller programs and limited resources they just couldn't think big. Now look at the assistant hires and the players we are getting from the transfer portal. Night and day.
  13. This time it just feels different. Both with Sark and Beard, it feels like they are given unlimited resources to go build the best programs in the country. Both Tom and Shaka were very limited in their thinking and how they approached their jobs. Not these two guys. You have to think CDC played a role in this.
  14. Would he come to Texas to back up Sims if Sims does return? Man, the way Beard is using the portal is just like the free agency in pro leagues. It's like we are bringing in bunch of mercenaries with sole purpose of winning now. Fuck rebuilding. It's like bringing back Steve Jobs to right the ship at Apple and he knows exactly what to do.
  15. I can't help but get excited about the changes that are taking place in our athletic department. Several sports have already returned to dominance and we are well positioned with the two that matter to most of our fans. You have to wonder if we are at the cusp of a similar decade as the 2020. Time for someone to start a new thread to discuss "Texas Athletics Return to Glory" or something similar perhaps? Show me a fucking loss! Hook'em everyone!
  16. This is their 4th game. I believe they play 5-7 games this season. https://www.maxpreps.com/high-schools/serra-cavaliers-(gardena,ca)/football/schedule.htm
  17. We are in peak kool-aid season. Show me a loss!
  18. I am shocked that there are no Texas players on the list!
  19. I see your irish to irish violence and raise to burmese to burmese violence.
