  1. You'll notice I didn't take that bet. I've got NU, CSU, sparky, stanford, and WSU as reasonable possibilities. UA is the wild card 6th, imo. There's no path to 7, though.
  2. 6 could be tight. They'd probably get an invite with 5 wins, and I can see 5 here
  3. Ah, yes. As Rodney Vincent says, it's the "burning desire" that's missing. Not the fundamentals.
  4. AD Mitchell was a relatively lightly recruited Ole Miss commit that grew a couple inches after his HS-Jr season and impressed on the camp circuit. He was in Fort Bend before moving to Tennessee and there was a bunch of 9.95er allusion to him looking around and wanting to get back to Texas. Herman offered and pursued briefly before Georgia clamped down and it was pretty drama free after that. His Senior production was weak and he quietly stuck with Georgia. There is plenty of non-sourced info out there to validate Mitchell's long-time familiarity with, and desire to return to Texas. The "tExAs BoUgHt hIm" crowd is just outing themselves as lazy and disinterested,
  5. Good point - I had forgotten Drayton hung for a year. Point still stands, though. Choice hasn't led us around the conference championship/10 win corner. Yes, much of Surly and the internet were calling for Sark to replace PK. That he didn't doesn't give me any information about who he would have hired to adjust my expectations. GP coming in was a home run, and I'm attributing much of the DB improvement you attribute to Gideon and Joseph to Fatterson's influence on scheme. If you want to believe Gideon "landed" Derek Williams, that's fine. He wasn't the primary recruiter, but Gideon will be his coach, so okay. I don't have the nuts on this, but I'm 90% sure that hiring GP wasn't Sark's idea, and maybe not even his choice. If he deserves credit there for reeling him in, I'd be happy to be corrected. Marion was a good hire. I think almost everyone thought it was a great hire initially (including me), but results pushed that down to good. Choice was/is a home run, no argument there. My comment was "since his initial asst. staff". Flood and Banks have of course been great coaches and recruiters. While our success is ultimately tied to the HC, the combination of parts hasn't brought us more than an 8 win season. The only reason I can think of to blindly tRuSt ThE cOrChEs on ANYTHING in the face of "a huge rebuild", without any evidence of success executing a rebuild, is preservation of fandom in the offseason. It's not a good reason, but it's a reason.
  6. I can understand this sentiment because we all want Sark to turn the corner. But the actual problem here is that Sark hasn't turned the corner. I'm not ready to give him a pass on his public demonstration of ignorance on Stoops, and since his initial asst. staff, he's hired Marion. At best, the grade is incomplete.
  7. So we know Filani can teach tracking a deep ball, but idk that the divos of his wr rooms are gonna rival ours who will literally be making more money than him. And legally to boot.
  8. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Sark get Wiggins in principle the first time around only for compliance to say no?
  9. I can think of a couple posters who would be gushing about ovies upside. What a terrific, proactive offer and backfill for that guy we lost. He’ll be MUCH better. Because, new.
  10. Idk how y'all aren't negging the shit out of him. Maybe instead of posting gifs, embrace the neg.
  11. This feels like an invitation to neg bomb. Have we ever crowdsourced such a prolific shit poster before? Would be quite the offseason accomplishment...
  12. Deep cut. I briefly played football with Glen in high school. He was....not good at it. Say what you will about Katfid, but he knows his white people.
  13. So, Leipold's WR coach at Buffalo that was not asked to follow him to Kansas? Yeah....no thanks.
  14. The guy who didn't get the joke had to EDIT the post outing himself. looooooooooooooooooooooooool This has been a remarkable Tuesday.
