  1. Look, not going to explain it all, just think back on recruiting for a while, who was doing it and who was dropping money into the program and you can probably figure out the basics. The specifics are irrelevant at this point. Look at aggy, they have guys like sharp and buzbee who don’t have boundaries for what they think they can get away with. Just a couple high profile examples of the majority group (what’s the opposite of think?) that comprises their cult. Wealth is transitory the further you go away from the top, and the newer wealth seems less risk tolerant. Older folks would be more apt to do things the old way while younger people are less wild, Wild West and more likely to delve into above board things like NIL. It might surprise you how indifferent many of our older large donors are to winning compared to the average surly member. We still have a lot of generous alumni, but where UT could stand out is with a strong, well organized, well led NIL operation. Get the younger people interested with a plan that shows what we can accomplish and how. Instead we started off trying to herd a bunch of cats Into a room so we could explain why they can’t chase mice.
  2. First off it’s not the schools giving out the money, it’s boosters. NIL is still so new it’s hard to know exactly how this will go. And as far as the bag game goes it’s usually a mega donor who wants to win now (knight, or a t boone) or there’s a well organized group (UGA, Clemson) who have their shit together. It’s never something like a bunch of bums pitching in $100 to the pot to buy someone because there’s too many loudmouths who will get others busted who actually have something to lose. Currently UT is disorganized and can’t even get the newly legal NIL shit in order much less a well organized bag game. And by UT, again I don’t mean the school. There’s plenty of money available for whatever but less appetite for risk on the bag front and a complete lack of direction from Belmont on NIL. As far as what happens if highly paid recruit leaves? With the bag game just as aggy what happens when you give out gold trans ams. I’m not sure anyone knows about NIL money other than the attorneys writing the contracts. Hell, half of surly appears to be lawyers, ask them.
  3. This is completely true, and most of the dumbfuck B12 refs look like aggy. Imagine giving up that cushy insurance sales job to go be a referee for 1/3 of the year instead. Their median salary is 57k so I guess the raise in pay, 8 months a year to work part time cleaning restrooms at bucees and getting to fuck over TU is a sweet, sweet gig.
  4. The team is seriously focused on the end goal, and coach is recruiting well as usual. Was it Mack brown who checked potential assistants wives to see if they were hot showing they were closers? Jerritt Elliott is indeed a closer.
  5. They constantly embarrass theirselves. It’s hard to get passed retroactively adding championships they didn’t win officially on Kroger field.

    Tackling

    I absolutely agree, we particularly need someone to come in and teach our Oline the proper tackling techniques that OU employs. That shit apparently works and doesn’t get called often. We don’t even need OUs linemen, just their technique and Bijan runs for 400yds and 8 tds a game, and I dare anyone to keep up.
  7. He’s definitely got a passive personality on the sidelines. The only coach I can think of with that didn’t seem to get visibly angry at times and was very effective was sweater vest at OSU
  8. Kirk Bowels moved aggy up from NR to 12. It’s hard to explain Bamas dropped balls, penalties and generally shitty play. It’s not hard to explain the shitty play calling or the young QB. But aggy is not the 12th best team, they definitely punched way above their weight and had a really good game by their mediocre QB.
  9. Nah, just Saban playing chess again while everyone else is playing go fish. While king saban has decided to keep coaching until he’s 115, he realizes UT could pose a threat to his hegemony after they join SEC if they cut off his Texas pipeline. He strategically cut their recruiting momentum by giving their in stare competition a boost. simultaneously he guarantees aggy won’t be a threat as they plan to extend Jimbo through 2065. Also, he’s banking on the cult to give fisher another huge raise because that means Saban gets a raise as well.
  10. The spot on the bijan run was bad, his foot stepped out at the 2 but the ball was inches from the goal line. So they spot it at the 2. Didn’t end up mattering except as yet another fuckup or fuckery by the refs.
  11. 13 better than rattler. Fuck OU
  12. Cook was in position and would have made the tackle except he got held and then tackled by 27 as he was reaching.
  13. Such incompetence on display here
  14. Fucking reviews, and they still can’t get calls right. At least in SEC we know they protect the top teams so lately that would not be great for us vs OU, but I’ll take that over the complete incompetence of these shitbags.
  15. We can’t leave this conference fast enough
  16. Abilene christian New Mexico St. LA Monroe UMASS Sam Houston App St Mcneese Bowling green New Mexico St Murders row over the next 3 seasons. My guess is once UT/OU join up and the schedule gets shuffled they will have to drop Miami x 2 and Domer to keep room on their schedule for the tough games above What an absolute joke, beating their chests over winning 3-4 real games each year against the dregs of the SEC. In 10 years they are .513 in conference play. Pretty sure they have 4 wins over FBS teams with a winning record in the past 4 seasons. The good news for us is we will become beneficiaries of the SEC bias and should start out every season top 10. After Bama, UGA, OU, UT, UF, fOSU, Pedo, Clemson, Domer, and Oregon (maybe USC if they find a coach) there simply wont be any room left for teams like aggy to start top 10. Sure, they will still get the benefit of SEC bias but won’t start out near the top. They will actually have to do something to get overrated and by then it’s October and it’s too late. Clackety clack, the cart falls of it tracks.
  17. Top, bottom, bi-curious, oblivious virgin, homophobe about to shank one of the others.
  18. Where the fuck you been, he just got a raise and extension a month ago
  19. Duck does that whole D-line shift often where all the linemen shift over a slot either way, it draws an OL just about every time.
  20. Good news is we have studs behind him. You can give him all the carries he wants and still have depth when he needs a breather. I think Zach Evans is slightly more talented of a runner than bijan, but Bijans work ethic and ability to be a work horse make him a far better RB. Watching Bamas Robinson, that dude is really good. His blocking gets him about 10 yards before initial contact, imagine Bijan with similar instead of at the LOS.
  21. He was parked at the 32 when QB slid into him. we can’t leave this shithole soon enough, here’s hoping the whole conference burns to the ground after we leave.
  22. I’ll leave the obvious over played joke alone. But completely agree on Meyer, he’s the greatest college coach of the modern era not named saban, 2 undefeated seasons and only 1 season below 8-5 with never a losing record. Even with his giant pussy, I would sell my soul and take him as coach for 5 years until the next health crisis just to get another trophy.
  23. This post is very sooner while smoking meth and shotgunning hits to his sister in the great trailer park of the American plains, the state of Oklahoma.
  24. Not yet able to start a new thread, nor can I find one pertaining to 2021 bowl projections so I will leave this here. as of week 5 I’ve seen 4 different outlets predicting UT to the Sugar Bowl. CBS sports has Hog vs UT Athelon sports has Ole Miss vs UT College football news has UT vs gata Sarurday down south has gata vs UT Brett McMurphy has cheezit bowl Notre Dame vs UT Meanwhile, preseason predictions had us vs Ole Miss in Texas bowl, UT vs Washington in the Alamo, Dome vs UT in cheezit, Miami vs UT cheezit, etc. i know that nobody knows shit right now, but currently there’s a pretty consistent theme of us playing in the Sugar against who fucking knows. if things go well for both of us this season I don’t mind a rematch against hogs.
  25. I admit it would be epic awesomeness if FSU lobbied and Sanky said “no, we have a gentleman’s agreement with UF as the flagship Florida team not to take an in-state also ran”.
