    Not my top choice. Wouldn't bother me if we did.

    ESPN may have an opinion. If this plays out as above, they lose a lot of decent content when the rest of the conference goes Big 10 or PAC 12.

    And this is the same playbook as last SEC Expansion...make the schools ask first so they don't look like they're poaching (as much).

    P.S. Finebaum talking about this now on SECN from SEC Media Days.

    Didn't this golum say Texas was irrelevant in football?

    My grandson who just graduated high school is starting his electrician apprenticeship with a good-size Austin company this summer. Once he gets his license, he plans to get an EE degree.

    An EE degree is basically also computer programming at this point. Had a good buddy go though that shit while I was at Texas doing my CE degree. He said it was super hard. Good luck to him! 

    Show him this video it's a really interesting tinfoil hat take on early electrical engineering.

    just abide by the laws and we won’t have a problem.

    His name's droopy and he's gonna slit the throat of the next sorry sap that comes up to him and mentions Texas football possibly remaining mediocre. Nice.

    This would be an epic fail by the builder. There's been plenty of time to get it done. They have been moving at a snail's pace, at least on the exterior, over the past year. 

    They've been doing well. It's nearly impossible in the current construction market to get the subs to show up with a real full crew. There's a massive shortage of tradesman in every trade. You want the building to be done right with high quality and there's a lot of sign offs involved in every phase to make sure.

    There's more rules and logistics then you could ever imagine on a job like this.

    HP throws their A team out there for Texas and they are driving the subs as hard as humanly possible. Go look at EERC to see how they roll.

    There's just no tradesman. Men want to sit behind a computer these days, young men are mostly useless and would rather make minimum wage doing some mindless shit indoors. Doesn't matter how high you make incentive there's just a massive labor shortage.

    I don’t give a fuck about the hand sign either way but here is the main issue:

    In 2012, Mike Davis got a penalty for holstering the Texas Tech ‘guns up’ as he waltzed through the end zone on a touchdown.

    Its fucking bullshit to flag UT players and not flag anyone else for doing the horns down.

    Fairness in sports, that’s the entire fucking issue here.

    Otherwise, I completely enjoy the entire fucking nation knowing and performing our hand sign as it’s the most popular, most well known, and done by everyone that plays us. Rent motherfucking free forever!!!

    Fuck shit piss balls mayonnaise dick.

    One thing the big12 officials are consistent on - inconsistency

    Yes it is taunting.  I am not sure why they singled out the horns down though.

    If Bijan scores a TD and does the horns up in the face of an opposing player, thats 15 yards.  If he points his index finger at him, that is 15 yards.  People who dont WANT TO understand this are just haters and want to make something out of nothing. 

    Because the big 12 is dogshit and they do this stupid thing every couple of years to make headlines and have people all get to jump on Texas for being soft.

    It's not taunting,  it's fucking stupid.  It means you've got nothing of your own worth a shit. It means Texas is in your fucking head. Any time someone in our fanbase whines about it they look like fucking Karens and it certainly doesn't make it stop

    Well if they do it towards an opposing team player it is taunting, just like every other hand gesture towards an opposing team player. You can't wave goodbye at the DB you just roasted so I think it's fine you cant go point the horns down at them either.

    They should be able to still do it in general and do it toward the crowd or whatever. That's not taunting.

    Basically, the big12 said there's already a rule for taunting, and we will enforce it with the horns down. So they've said nothing, except mentioning horns down and making it a storyline when it doesn't need to be.

    Did I see they're gonna start cracking down on "horns down"? I assume that applies only to the players. No way they can penalize a team if some of the 50K+ fans in an opposing stadium does it, right? I don't do it because it's lame, but fans everywhere are gonna do it, but I can see penalizing players for taunting, as long as they make it known out front that its going to be a penalty.

    Whatever the big 12 decides it will be retarded and poorly/inconsistently executed.  

    I say let them do horns down as much as they want.

    Let the haters hate. They hate us because they anus!

    Pee-Wee Herman reporting for duty. Tough look. Bijan looks like he’s about to push some HDMI cables and not take no for an answer. The logos on the polo are also insanely high. 

    Jesus Nike sucks shit
