AWS borked
Our problem was mostly that our critical vendor were also down so us failing over meant we were up but the customer still wouldn’t be able to fully use our software for its intended purpose. We have had customers asking us why we don’t have multi cloud…which I’m hoping they are ok with their contract being double what it currently is bc that’s what it would take to pull off that nightmare.

Texas O-line talk
Yeah it is clear that they have way too much going on in their heads on any given play. Another sign pointing to Sark thinking he can run things like an NFL team when he is working with 19 year olds. Slide protections, pull protections, half run half pass protections. Its all too much. Just run BOB and some half-slide until we can prove we can execute those.

We’ll miss him bad against vandy

Michael Taaffe wants you to stop being such fucking pussies.
you don't think that our offense got manhandled by Kentucky? You run a great website but you don't know shit about football.

What? They didn’t play that well at all.

That’s why it won’t happen, not why it shouldn’t happen. And you’re right, it won’t. But it’s more fun to argue over why it should on the internet.

Also, Sark he completely lost his reputation as a qb guru and offensive genius already so what difference does it make?

Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
So your position is that it is more important to preserve the very slim odds of the idealized scenario working out next year over trying to win games now? You’re scenario is completely hypothetical. I want to see what we might be able to do now. If Caldwell proves he can’t do any better after the next couple games, you go back to Arch. This also sends the message (which is long overdue) that positions are earned, not ordained.

He didn’t decide to suck, but he still does

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
The post game presser tells all. Complete lack of introspection, burying his head in the sand, saying “it’s the little things”, saying it was a culture win, etc. There’s an air of him acting like this is the way he wants it to be, it just needs a few tweaks.

Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
Exactly. And what do you do with a QB who is always late AND horribly inaccurate? There’s just not that many good options left. He might be serviceable in a Veer and shoot offense where the read is simple, the field is spread and the route tree is pared down. But that obviously is not happening.

I can excuse a guy running for his life and still trying to make throws down the field like in the Florida game. I can’t excuse missing wide open 5 yard drags and throwing it at guys feet. I’m not sure that Caldwell will be an improvement but there is literally no harm in trying. We won’t get any worse on that side of the ball. Will it ‘scare away’ Arch and his camp? So fucking be it.

James Simon is basically Jerrick Gibson, thus far without the fumbling. I think until Baxter is back Simon was easily number 2 in line for carries, regardless of if Gibson stayed.

Texas O-line talk
After rewatching I came away really impressed with Brooks, considering it was his first start. The difference between he and Stroh is night and day. Brooks keeps his feet moving and even when he loses at initial contact he is able to fight back to at least a draw. When he wins a rep he is able to latch on to the defender and not allow them to slide off because he doesn't lunge. Its the difference between a true athlete and just a 'large human'. The combo of Goosby and Brooks on the left side will prove to be an effective pairing as the year goes on imo. They are well suited for outside zone because they have plus athleticism. That is what was so odd about trotting Stroh out there, not only is he bad individually, he really doesn't pair well with Goosby or the rest of the line.

sorry but the O line is severely lacking in talent and athleticism. As is the RB room.

It is pretty insane how quickly things have gone sideways on Sark. That game felt like the Arkansas game in 2021, which is an order of magnitude less acceptable in year 5 than it is in year 1. It reeks of hubris and confirmation bias.

I’ve also noticed the oddly paradoxical way that Flood’s ‘large humans’ end up being mere screeners. It feels like based on how he apparently coaches them up or selects by temperament that he’d be better served going after the smaller more nimble guys that grow into their frame like Sam Cosmi.

I think he best fits the Jaydon Blue role out of the current backs. He looked better out in space on swing passes.

After a rewatch of the game (I’m a masochist I guess) what struck me outside of Arch’s ineptitude was just how many plays one or more of the OL or TEs block absolutely nobody. On pulls, on kick outs, on regular ol inside zone, they manage to find nothing to do. How is that possible? Unsurprisingly the main culprits were Stroh and Hutson.

Or the play he threw the pick one, a roll out with a quick throw to Livingstone in the flat that he turned down
