  1. Which commercial real estate firm do you think he’ll be declaring to? I’d put my money on CBRE, but you can never count out JLL in this type of situation.
  2. Hutson was one of the worst starting guards in all of P5 last year (he was significantly worse than Majors), he suffered a major shoulder injury that required surgery and kept him out of Spring ball, and he’s had extremely limited reps at Center, which is the most difficult position to learn on the OL. None of that adds up to him unseating a fourth year starter by conference play.
  3. Mitchell’s one of the best red zone threats in the country, and we should be able to get a lot of push in the run game behind Campbell and Jones, assuming Campbell wins the RG spot.
  4. And the other big difference is the positions Sark’s landing 5 star talent at: QB, OL, DE, LB. All of Herman’s 5 stars were skill positions and DBs, and there was a huge drop off at OL and the Front 7.
  5. You know things are bleak when the only thing TexAgs can come up with is “our recruiting will turn around if we win this year” as if they won’t suck again and the current season ever has a big impact on that year’s recruiting class. They are absolutely fucked.
  6. I think it’s an interesting way to show how we’ve been failing to land truly elite talent under CS and Herman. They both had some highly rated classes, but they got very few 5 stars to campus. From 2013 to 2021, we landed like 4 consensus 5 stars. Sark landed 6 in just 22 and 23 and will probably be adding another 3-4 for 24. It’s a completely different level of talent than we’ve landed since Mack’s prime.
  7. Satay’s optimistic version of the season is still taking the Under on season wins. Is anyone surprised?
  8. That’s good and all, but have we reserved the plane to fly the OneFund banner on game days? Everyone knows that’s the only real way to get your message out.
  9. Saying we have an 11 win roster and then subtracting two wins due to the starting QB on said roster is a rather regarded way of explaining your prediction.
  10. Red Bull has been proven to have by far the most effective DRS, so that rule change would be an effective way to nerf RB compared to the rest of the field. Not that it will change the outcome of races, but having other teams get pole and making RB pass some cars would generate some additional excitement.
  11. Surly doing what Surly does best: going full autist. Go ahead and add minority population between Austin and Baton Rouge to the list with geography and Stanford academics.
  12. Jimbo is killing himself scouring the country for overrated RBs with character issues as we speak.
  13. I still remember when his solution for fixing the offense was starting a freshman Casey Thompson over Sam Ehlinger.
  14. It’s amazing how many people fail to understand that both Guards were worse than Majors last year, and they somehow think that replacing him with one of those guards, thereby weakening two positions, is the answer to fixing our OL.
  15. Mental Health Tip #2: if you’re taking mental health tips from Rimbo, then you should check yourself into the nearest mental health facility immediately.
  16. This is such a weird, one-sided point of view. He’s been high on LSU for years, they’re coming off a great first season and they have a history of putting edge rushers in the first round while we haven’t done that in over a decade. It’s not like this is some easy, no-brainer recruitment Texas should win 10 times out of 10.
  17. Stub hub already has GA tickets for less than face value and a Sunday only ticket is below $300 on there. I expect those prices to keep tumbling as we get closer to the race.
  18. Football Board gonna Football Board You literally just described one of the most important aspects of a coach’s job in trying to explain why coaching isn’t your top concern.
  19. Sark’s had years to figure out that defense and he still can’t, so I wouldn’t expect the title game to change anything. It’s not like last year was the first time he realized his offense struggled against it.
  20. This seems extremely inconsiderate. How the fuck is @TheMailBox357 ever supposed to get any work done?
