This class is gone. Urban will have to fill holes with grad transfers. Or we keep Tom and are fucked.

And now that we've waited so long, there's probably very little chance of getting the Texas 2022 recruits back in the fold. tOSU has all the momentum and is building the cohesion that Tommy should have been building around Ewers when he had the chance.

I think the reference up thread to Sam leaving, and Texas moving on to Card or JQJ. Might be skipping a step.

Absolutely it is a coaching issue. That's why I hate the narrative that talent comes to Texas to die. The problem is not "Texas." The problem is Charlie Strong and Tom Herman. Let's get a real coach and then see what happens to talent at Texas.

It should depend on who his replacement should be. If Urban will come, you hire Urban and fire Tom. If Urban will not come, then you probably keep Tom.

I have been mulling the short-term and long-term risks of getting an mRNA vaccine vs. not getting an mRNA vaccine. Without a vaccine, given my age/risk profile, I have a very low risk of severe covid infection in the short term. With a vaccine, I probably have a very low risk of severe adverse vaccination reaction in the short term. Both options carry short term risks, but on balance, I feel safer getting the vaccine. My evaluation of long-term risks is similar. Covid presents unknown long-term risks, including cardiac risks. The vaccine also presents completely unknown long-term risks. On balance, I lean slightly towards favoring the long-term risks of a covid infection, but this is mostly a blind guess. As the vaccines become available, I expect to see a lot of discussion and analysis of potential long-term risks and will be paying close attention to this subject before making a decision. If I had to guess, I will eventually decide that all risks are sufficiently low and will get vaccinated to have peace of mind about returning to normal.

How do you turn the corner as a program and build momentum when the blue chips in Texas are going out of state?? I know one way....

Do it!

I intended to root again us @ okie lite, but when the game started, I couldn't do it. I found myself just watching, not really cheering one way or the other.

M-O-O-N, that spells "we're all fucked."

I bet he got a ton of pressure from Herman to tweet SOMETHING about football, so CDC spent 45 minutes writing and rewriting a tweet to sound vaguely positive without offering too much support.

It's definitely Tom. Probably a PR firm hired by him or his agent.

He definitely shouldn't be on orange fans, where they rely on unnamed sources. That's why I like Surly and Twitter -- we have NAMED SOURCES, whether it be hornfromdallas, RapGameLarry, or even porta potty girl.

Yeah, i whiffed on that one. Too angry at the turtle I guess.

I figured we'd see a loooot of shitty football this year due to shortened training camps. Not so much. Clemson, Bama, and Ohio State still look dominant. And we still look mediocre. I don't see where shortened camps have changed anything, honestly.

That's the most regarded negative recruiting I've ever heard of. "Right now, Texas has a piece of shit fraud as a head coach, but reports say they are about to hire one of the greatest football coaches of a generation. You wouldn't want play for that team, right?

Oh shit that's savage

Fuck the outsiders and their myopic focus on being "good" at "football" or "beating the other team." They need to see the bigger picture here

Sounds like he didn't answer the question at all.

Come help CUM

Let's not even talk about aggy.

Humiliating? Nah, still not even close

We will easily score on our first possession. We will then play like shit until there are 5 minutes left in the game. At that point, Sam is going to will the team to a close game. We will either lose on a late turnover or win on a late score. It's a fluid situation.

I hate to say it, but if we can't get Urban Meyer, then we need to be really careful. There is no point in replacing Tom Herman with another Tom Herman or a Charlie Strong. In my thinking, there is only one man on the list, and his name is Urban Meyer.

We play a close game against anyone with a pulse. It's who we are.
