  1. Not last year. It was a strength. But otherwise agree
  2. This guy is entering the portal - Texas State OL Tellek Lockette taking redshirt, no longer on Bobcats roster - Yahoo Sports
  3. It'd be kinda cool to see an up and comer like Jesse Minter or Joe Brady hired at like $5mm plus huge incentives that can get them up to $15mm for a NC. Plus a huge assistant coach pool. Idk if Deboer is unrealistic as we'd normally think. There are some rumors about him and Penn St flirting. His Bama tenure has been kinda fish out of water. Both sides might be ok with a fresh start
  4. Even if Sark left, Kiffin prob wouldn't happen because a) he'll already be at LSU/UF and b) he is too similar to Sark (and in fact is a close friend). That said, I think he'd be good. His offense kicks ass wherever he goes regardless of OC, QB, etc. He's proven that in the same conference so less risk there. And he hasn't had Texas level talent at Ole Miss which would help quite a bit. Not sure if realistic but Freeman and Deboer would be my other top choices. Beyond that it's a wasteland which is yet another reason making a move wouldn't be great.
  5. Sark ain't gonna get pushed out (yet) for on-field results, nor should he. The only reason UT would part ways is if there really are personal issues that are intolerable and/or getting in the way of him doing his job. Personal stuff notwithstanding, he'd have a pretty clear path to righting the ship just by going back to what he's done the last two years (like a normal offseason practice schedule), hitting the portal (OLs plz), and replacing a few assistants (ie the new secondary coaches). He has proven an ability to do all that in the past. This offseason was the outlier so you'd be crazy to push him out unless there is some very specific stuff behind the scenes. To be clear, I don't know anything beyond what I've read here. It just otherwise wouldn't make sense to give up that fast after one botched offseason considering how good he looked the past two years.
  6. What's Ole Miss gonna do if Lane doesn't meet this alleged deadline? Fire him and pay his buyout? Lol yeah right
  7. Mosley is the best WR on the team imo. Slow start because he missed the entire offseason and first few weeks but he creates the most separation and actually catches the ball.
  8. Sark should hire Brandon Jones from Mizzou as OL Coach. They always have a sick run game and he's a long-time Texan edit: actually, add their RB coach Curtis Luper too (another Texan). And maybe the OC. Just import their whole run game. Do it now while Drink is flirting with other jobs.
  9. "This team is too soft, let's hire Lincoln Riley" is peak Surly
  10. Any assessment of Sark, like any coach, needs to go beyond 1 year. That's why I am confused. The previous two years, the team was physical, disciplined enough, and guys were improving leaps and bounds on an individual basis. This year it all seems to be gone. Why is that and can Sark revert things back to before? Not that those teams were perfect but you certainly wouldn't trade Sark for anyone else at that point.
  11. What did he say in the rant? Link?
  12. Did Lance Jackson play yesterday? Didn't notice him out there.
  13. SIAP but did Lance Jackson play yesterday? I don't remember seeing him and don't see any stats
  14. For Texas, Goosby and Jelani are the big TBD NFL decisions this offseason. Maybe Kanu. Would be huge if they stay. I don't think DeAndre Moore gets a good enough grade. Hill and MM gone.
  15. A lot can change between now and then but as of now my priority ranking would probably be: 1. iOL #1 2. iOL #2 3. iOL #3 4/5. 1 S and 1 CB (not sure which higher) 6. RB 7. LB 8. DT The good news is that a lot of those should be less expensive positions. Positions like OT, DE, WR, and QB would be way tougher. Interesting read on the subject - College football 2025: How much does each position cost? - ESPN
  16. OL is obviously priority #1. The secondary is the biggest unknown. A lot of young talent but very little proven success especially if Jelani goes pro. Littleton would be the only guy you can really trust as of now. Probably need a CB and a S to hedge your bets but hopefully Kade, Black, Roberson, Jonah, Filsaime, etc step up. RB would be nice but maybe not as critical imo. Wisner, CJ, Simon, and Cooper would be decent with a better OL. Probably need a depth LB behind Smith/Lefau. Very little experience behind them as it stands. Maybe Spence plays more LB. Might also want to go to the well again for a plugger DT like Brevard/Shaw/Norton/Lole.
  17. The question was whether the risk is higher tomorrow versus 2 weeks from now.
  18. If he clears protocol, does that mean zero extra risk of another concussion? Either way, I'm in the let him sit camp but doubly so if there is even an ounce of extra risk compared to waiting a couple weeks.
  19. Dumb if true. Let the kid heal through the bye week. Probably needs a break from these beatings anyway
  20. I assume this is a bs source but the guy has a lot of followers and it would be a random thing to make up. Would make sense though.
  21. I know a couple who were having a baby around the same time and they saw Sark at the hospital/doctor a few times. I don't remember specifics but I want to say Sark's baby may have indeed had some complications (possibly premature?). My memory is fuzzy and I never got a lot of details so please don't take that as fact, anyone. But point being, yeah he had a lot going on.
  22. Oh I'm not saying Bama should want him gone. I think he's a damn good coach. But objectively speaking, that fanbase had turned on him already. Hilarious example: Alabama Fan Says She’d Use Powerball Winnings To Buy Out DeBoer - Yahoo Sports It's highly unlikely but I'm just wondering if he could be pissed at how he's been treated there and open to a move.
  23. I don't think they're talking about the kid anymore. More about..uhh..reasons for missing 30 days in January. Things that may have plagued him at USC and UW perhaps... But idk, this thread is a confusing trainwreck. Probably time for nuking it.
  24. Yeah he fucked up this offseason with this "NFL-style" experiment and not addressing the OL, but he crushed the two offseasons before that. If he is willing/able to admit the new approach failed, he can turn things around just by doing what he's already done. That's very different from hoping someone does something completely new. The only reason he'd be fired is if his personal life has truly spiraled to a point of no return, or if he insists on keeping everything the same (lax offseason schedule, weak portal effort, etc). No insight on the former. I highly doubt he'll leave the OL unaddressed again. I hope he's aware/humble enough to revert to the old offseason schedule but wouldn't be shocked either way.
  25. I mean clearly he's had some shit go down in his personal life. Gossip aside, he did publicly announce a divorce and then end up with a new kid instead. Even if that's the full story, that's a lot to deal with (a new baby is a lot to deal with, period, lol).
