It’s more on the assistant level.

The “wild wild” is precisely this why there has been an exodus on the whole from the college ranks to the NFL the last few offseasons. In the NFL you get some semblance of an offseason whereas with how things are with the portal/NIL you are recruiting all year.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet
Yev Kassem replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
I have been saying this the last two years. Quinn is Simms incarnate. Their biggest failures came in the games that mattered most. Simms also had a higher career winning percentage. He left UT as the second winningest QB in school history. -

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet

If you could envision a game that summed up Quinn’s entire UT career, last night would be it. Looking solely at his stat line one could think that he played well enough to win. Decent completion percentage. A few tds. But of course, Quinn showed us yet again exactly who he is and why he was never able to lead us to a title despite having arguably the most talented roster in 15 years. Running into multiple sacks, panicking under pressure, lofting throws instead of throwing them on a line once again proved to be fatal in a big time game. His best throw of the night came on the first drive on the one handed catch by Golden. Other than that, Quinn was Quinn and it wasn’t good enough against top flight competition. Yes, Sark deserves a huge amount of blame for last night and Bond’s crucial drop stalled out a promising drive near midfield, but at the end of the day if your QB cannot consistently execute in crucial moments you aren’t winning a title. I’m glad Quinn was able to help bring the program back to prominence and championship contention, but I’m excited to turn the page and move on. -
Tonight should be the night that ends the “Sark is an offensive genius” narrative. He has consistently shown in his four seasons at Texas that there are massive flaws in both his system and playcalling acumen. There are far too many stretches in games where the offense is completely non-existent. These aren’t stretches that happen a few times a season. They consistently happen for long stretches of most games during our season. He has zero feel for calling plays in the red zone. He calls the same slow developing, lateral plays each and every drive inside the 20. Every red zone possession we know the following plays are coming: 1. Play action swing screen that is either lofted above the RBs or blown up 4 yards behind the LOS. 2. Near the goaline he will run out a big package that includes two defensive lineman (see first down on tonight’s definitive 4th quarter drive). 3. Outside toss to the boundary. 4. Fade to the corner which is inevitably underthrown or out of bounds with no chance for the receiver to make a play. We are at a point where our talent is better than 95% of the country, which will get us to 10 wins most seasons and in playoff contention. The issue is that Sark is exposed when he meets teams that are as or more talented than we are. The Bama game last season has proven to be the exception, not the rule. We played that game about as perfect as we could have, but we have not come close to putting a game like that together since. It is simply unfathomable that Sark didn’t run out Arch for at least a play or two at the goal line. I was fine with the first down call, but once that was stuffed we needed a different look. Arch is big enough to where he’s a legit threat for QB sneak, he presents a zone read option threat and he could be a play action boot threat. We bring back a less talented team next season with a tougher schedule so unless Sark has some serious reflection this offseason in how he calls plays (which I seriously doubt) I have grave concerns that we make the playoffs next season.

Is there consensus yet on the board as to the correct way to tackle Skattebo? We still have six days to figure it out, if not. -

Nice to meet you, Mr. Ewers. For the sake of Longhorn Nation your son can stop being a pussy and deliver us a title. -

I think @Longhornlove would enjoy watching Quinn fuck his significant other and then make excuses why he came too quickly and disappointed her. -
Put me down in the 2 camp, but instead of stupidity I believe it’s arrogance. Sark believes he can “fix” Ewers, even with only a couple games left in his Texas career. Sark has proven over these four years at Texas that he is unwilling to change his playcalling style, even to the detriment of the team. He refuses to budge from his philosophy even when it’s clear the opponent has figured things out. We see the same slow developing play calls called week after week that don’t work out more than they fail. Too many drives stall out in fg tries instead of touchdowns. Yes, we were better the first half of the season, but things have really fallen off the second half. On top of arrogance I think Sark simply refuses to start a QB controversy with so few games left in Ewers’ Texas career. I think more than arrogance, this is what will eventually cost us a title. He was on the fucking sidelines when Saban pulled Hurts for Tua and it’s maddening that Sark hasn’t given Arch more of a look before now and gotten him in game reps given the way Ewers has struggled the last 6 games or so.

Unfortunately I think we’re in the same position with Sark that we are with Quinn. He is who he is and he’s not changing. He has his philosophy and while it works well against most teams and we have won a lot of games these last couple of seasons, he doesn’t look to be the kind of coach who is willing to make adjustments when his schemes have been figured out. -

Sark definitely isn’t doing us any favors in this department. Consistently calling slow developing play action passes (with a non-existent running game) coupled with an immobile qb with poor pocket presence is not a recipe for success. -

People need to get over the yardage stats. Georgia was going to give Quinn yards because they knew he can’t beat them in the red zone. They play aggressive man defense close to the LOS to take away the run game and the horizontal passing game. We got plenty of explosive long pass plays, but only one long td from those. Once we got into the red zone the combo of our inability to run the ball and Quinn’s inability to make the right read in the shorter red zone windows stalled drives. -

Yev Kassem replied to Pancho's topic in Football
We dominated yardage in the first half. That’s it. We were completely outplayed in the second half. You’re kidding yourself thinking we dominated this game. Outplayed in the running game. Outplayed in special teams. Outplayed in the red zone. -

Quinn is who he is. He’s not magically changing anything about his game in two weeks. He is a major detriment that will keep this team from winning a national championship with the most talented roster since 2009. He’s good enough to beat 80-90% of the teams we play, but not the ones that you need to beat to win a title. Sure, we probably win a home playoff game (but I’m not 100% sold on that either), but I have little to no faith in Quinn at this point to win a game against a top flight team. The win last season at Bama has proven to be the exception, not the rule. The kid simply cannot be relied upon to consistently put the team on his back and go score a td in crunch time. The book on him has been out for quite some time now. Pressure the receivers because he’s going to consistently go for the checkdown if his first read isn’t there and he’s not consistent enough with deep balls to punish you throughout a game. At some point his poor footwork fundamentals, poor pocket presence, or poor decision making is going to kill a drive and he’s either going to turn the ball over or make some boneheaded throw that ends in a fg instead attempt instead of a td. Quinn is the Chris Simms of this generation. An uber-heralded QB who never lived up to the hype and their flaws kept ultra talented teams from a championship. -

Being happy with Quinn’s play this year is like enjoying a sad, dry, low-energy handjob from your significant other wearing a ratty nightgown. Yeah, you’ll probably still blow your load, but it’s not very fun. -

Matt fucking Nordgren could win five straight with the way this defense is playing. 17 second half points in three weeks. That’s not gonna cut it against Georgia and most of the teams we could face in the CFP. -

Quinn is a known quantity this season. He was absolute dogshit against Georgia and has done very little since then (outside of having one good game against a banged up UF secondary) to show that he will do anything other than repeat the same performance. He has been nothing other than a major disappointment this season. It is because of the defense that we’re 11-1 and to think otherwise is foolish. Every major offensive statistic shows the offense has been nothing more than average since Quinn came back from injury. Any time Arch steps on then field there is a different vibe to the offense and they play with a much different energy when he’s QB1. He may only have mastery of half of the offense that Quinn does, but I believe he can run that half better than Quinn has shown this season. I have zero confidence that Quinn can beat Georgia and would prefer to roll the dice with the kid. What have you seen Quinn do since the Georgia game that gives you any confidence he can win on Saturday? -
Granted, I’ve never listened to these radio hosts before, but they’re actually pretty solid. They don’t seem to be sunshine pumpers and grifters like Looch/Olin and every other TexAgs employee. Maybe they have been in the past, but there’s been plenty of criticism of players and coaches during this show, which I’m sure is lax across most of the aggy echo chamber media landscape.

Texas (5) VS Florida - 11AM on ABC - Makin’ Some Gator Boots

They’re consolidating to one or two main brokers so that they can better control the market. It’s too much of the Wild West when you have thousands of people dumping tickets at bottom out prices. Not as big of a deal when you’re sold out, but more so when you have a good amount of inventory to sell for single games like a few years ago.
