That's why it would be hilarious.

I think there's a lot of contextual misunderstanding here because it's in text form with little imagery or context for frame of reference for people. People are frustrated with Quinn because what they are seeing isn't a guy who hasn't or can't do the things it's that it's a guy who has done those things and not in a fluke way enough to know he can do them and then he just doesn't. We all know Quinn can run some, we all know he can throw with his feet set, we know he can laser balls. We know he can throw lofty catch under balls, we know he can throw the post etc. What we are seeing a guy who we know can do these things, simply not do them. It's beyond frustrating and it's not entertaining. As much as some if you want sport to be all about the result, it's very much entertainment and watching the Longhorns play right now is fucking frustrating, it just doesn't come with the bitter pill of defeat as well. Its why games like Georgia implode engagement metrics across the board on all sites and platforms. Texas looked like shit, played like shit, didn't entertain anyone in the premier timeslot of one of the most anticipated games of the season and made it fucking meh. We had over 50 people watching at the tailgate and the game was so fucking lame and bad that the majority left and said fuck this I'll just go watch at home or do something else. the week of UTSA was higher traffic for all properties I'm involved with than OU and beyond. The media can't even do their top ranked SEC darling stuff because Texas is fucking boring as shit. Texas is bad TV. the defense making the game boring is a VERY good thing for us as fans, but the offense making the game feel stuck is what's turning people completely off. Without a marquis running back its easy to get bored of Quinn dinking and dunking and occasionally doing something great. Its why gunnar hurdling people is so fucking dope. Its not cuz he only gains an extra yard or 2, its because it's a huge human jumping over someone and making a play. Save a few people no one thinks Quinn sucks. They just think Arch is more fun to watch and should grow now instead of next season.

I don't think Quinn can do off-schedule if he didn't run the predetermined route Quinn would fuck up the throw or just not know where to look. IMO we are seeing Quinns glass completely full from a mental standpoint, whether that's stress, playbook, whatever he's maxed out mentally before he's maxed out his physical attributes.

Lmao there should be a thread of screenshots like this with a multiple choice of "what happens next?" It would be one of the funniest threads on the site.

Holy fuck that Herbert Throw just now.

I swear some of y'all can't really remember stuff and it really feels like a lot of you don't watch a lot of football and rewind and Rewatch and watch on slo mo and look at what happened. Just watch once in real time and highlights.

Yeah, remember what happened year 1 of sark? Yep, and everyone LOVED Sam. He was also not a complete potato in front of the camera and had a pretty good amount of charisma. This is like saying Bijan didn't make any NIL money the first year of NIL lol.

Lolno

I still think one of sarks biggest mistakes when he got here was running Sam off for the likes of Casey and Hudson. Sam's NIL money would have been Astronomical.

Could you imagine Sam with this level of talent and this Oline? He would have won a fucking Heisman.

I have a national relationship with RevelXP not just a local one at Texas. I work at the corporate level with them and have a somewhat bespoke package because of it. Tuscaloosa is the only away site we don't use them for and I have a relationship with their local outfit from last time. Food and catering is the single highest cost outside of the space/tent which I don't want to slack on because while revel is expensive it truly is prime location and the on site facilities and bell-hopping etc is key because we load in a lot more than just a tent and some coolers. If I had a food partner or sponsor this would take an enormous load off my plate. The issue is the margins and service fees on catering that are fucking wild when you scale up like this.

PICKED OFF GAME OVER WOW

for those who aren't watching OREGON FAKED A FG TO FORCE TD. WISCONSIN DRIVING DOWN 3 1:45 LEFT 1 TO

This is good old fashioned fantastic hate that didn't go outside of football or that day, but just a hilarious day where you are ruthless to someone because of the team they root for. This type of stuff is fantastic memories and it's no harm no foul. aggy is gonna be different. They are going to physically assault people and say very fucking unfunny things that aren't a joke and across the line.

God damn I love this type of petty.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

Fuck I hate Oregon.

God damnit this needs to be photoshopped into the AP website.

11AM is mostly real graduates and hardcore football fans. Last time was a night kick. It was wild.

Wisconsin exposing Oregon.

Feet and yards are used interchangeably which is hilarious

After this year it's safe to say that the Surly Horns tailgate is the best tailgating experience available to the public on the 40 acres, and the largest most attended tailgate for all away games. Demand has been incredibly high for Arkansas and Nashville, but due to family, time constraints, budget concerns and honestly burnout I just tapped out on those. This year assuming there is no home playoff or bowl game I will have spent 145,000+ dollars on in person community related events excluding the sugar bowl (320k+ including sugar bowl) We will have around a 7-12k loss (depending on if you count reusable equipment or not) on the 145k this year and if you include the sugar bowl it's the same because I gave ALL the profit to Texas One Fund ($100k+ from a single day event raised) Next season is going to be very heavy away demand and still a great snowball building of home game demand. It's important to distinguish this from off campus tailgates - we are literally 30 seconds from LCL and less than 300 seconds from the stadium gates. I'm going to need ~225k raised in order to really do it right and justify the time investment and pay someone to actually run the events side and just host/provide vision. Out of that 225k we will have a gate - all home games based on feedback from this year will be $25 per person per game for members of Treefiddy, Burnt Ends, OnTexasFootball, or Texas One Fund. For non members normal home games will be $40 and high demand home games (like Georgia this year) will be $65. I can also offer a premium experience with guaranteed seating and climate control for $250/game for the home games or 1350 for the season per person. Away games will be all inclusive only, with optional alcohol or not. Food and NA will be $85 per adult, $45 per minor and $20 per child. Full on will be $165 per adult. Premium will start at $300 per person including children and will have special perks when available. I want to do this outside of the Surly corporate entity and investors will receive shares equivalent to the amount contributed and all revenue will be distributed monthly during the season so that its all done before 12/31 for tax purposes. All profits will be distributed or rolled over into the next years "investment pool". I'm doing this because I'm tired of carrying this risk solo and I need to open this up to continue even without my involvement. Right now we average 175-225 people per tailgate at home and have sold out every single ticketed event we have ever done (Georgia 400+, Michigan 750+), including over 2500 sold for the sugar bowl. We have a loyal returning population of over 500 for home games and an email distribution for all of those persons that we only promote these events and nothing else to. We have a live production at every tailgate as well and each one both home and away also includes a watch party for those who don't have tickets. There are additional broadcast and licensing opportunities here that are under-leveraged as well. There are significant merchandising opportunities that have gone pretty much untouched because I couldn't juggle that many balls. The sugar bowl where we had an official merch booth they netted over 45k in sales in a single day. I'm confident at Georgia with an average purchase of $25 we would have been able to sell upwards of 10k+ in merch. This isn't gonna be a big money maker for anyone involved, but that's not the point and hasn't been the motivation up to this point. We have built something special. A low cost fan and community experience that is football centric and NIL friendly with an approachable every fan is welcome vibe in an environment filled with bullshit and grift where it's more about being seen than it is about getting juiced for the game and celebrating with horns of all sizes shapes colors and ages. I can't promise breakeven, but I can promise minimal losses post distribution. Surly (me personally) will obviously be a significant contributor and shareholder. Let's start the conversation and set the expectation here and I'm happy to take the discussion private for those interested in doing this. If we don't do this I'm quite frankly just done with Tailgate. I'm completely tapped out on the stress it brings financially and operationally if we don't figure out a different way forward that isn't 100% dependent on me.

I'm saying that one fucking throw isn't a contested throw/catch because it was schemed that way and you act like I'm saying that play was bad. That play was fucking excellent and the execution was perfect. I'm saying Quinn doesn't throw many contested catch type balls and troph said the golden TD pass was one, and I'm just pointing out that it was designed that way regardless of coverage. I'm the idiot though. Sure thing. Not you who can't follow a simple thread and the face value argument that it was a designed play.

Lmao sure dude.
