  1. Not sure they have a chance with how last years class went down. Jimbo used every public opportunity to say that he had zero idea about NIL or bags for that matter that may or may not have been dropped. He was creating an out in case anything every went down and I have zero doubt he would take the whole ship down with him if it were to come to him being fired for cause.
  2. The difference this year vs last with the Bama game is they are fresh off of disappointment and are obviously at odds in the coaching staff and locker room. Had they had a tune up post the app state before playing Miami I would tend to agree with you. They are being asked to improve drastically after being embarrassed at home and are filled to the brim with distractions and it is only Wednesday. I went back and looked at some of the bigger upsets of all time and most teams that lost to an unranked G5 team were able to play a bottom dweller to get right. The week after Michigan lost to App State in 07 they were embarrassed at home against Oregon before they were Oregon. That Michigan team ended up being better than I remember and even knocked off a couple top 10 teams. Point being is that it would take a lot for a&m to just waltz in against Miami and win without all of the distractions they are currently dealing with.
  3. Not sure we lost anybody that mattered. Their issue will be losing the people they need to keep around like Marshall and the d line commits. If it really implodes I see a scenario where Weigman bounces or goes to play baseball and they end up with Max Johnson as QB1 next year.
  4. He was pretty hard on him on the local ETX news last week about the 2 picks in the Sam game. Bet he is also just as critical on Jimbo behind closed doors.
  5. And Card left us on the 2, 15, 6, and 31 on his sustained drives and was 1-9 on 3rd downs (that 1 was a Bijan run). Then he had 4 three and outs which kept letting Alabama stick around. He was good enough to keep it close but QE converts on at least one of those and adds 4 to the board at a minimum.
  6. He runs a memorabilia company and had players come do signing events. Seems like a solid reason to have sources so it's worth a data point.
  7. Heard it was mono or something along those lines. It'll take awhile for him to be back full force regardless.
  8. That's what I was saying or was trying to say. Any QB that is above average or better can and likely will beat them
  9. And LOL at the "best fans in the world" narrative they have going
  10. Here is a more realistic one than Wilson albeit both are unlikely at the moment https://247sports.com/player/jordan-hall-46113691/
  11. My biggest question was how did he handle Stewarts fumble? The immediate twitter activity probably gives us a good idea of how that went..
  12. Jimbo had no intention of using both of them and changing his offense. His only goal was to get a #1 class and break the record no matter what the character risks looked like. They even took a dude from Georgia with a blown ACL just for the ratings bump.
  13. It wont buy him the whole game but I believe it definitely bought him the start this weekend. But I think it is mostly that the most recent THSCA president is Kings dad.
  14. I think they thought they'd go into Bama as a 1 loss team at worst and a top 10 match-up.
  15. The key to beating a&m theast couple years is an above average QB. Their defense can shut down a run first offense but a QB that can make intermediate throws has given them fits. Last year the only good QB they beat was Young and that was an anomaly. Van Dyke seems good enough to make throws against this secondary and then open it up for their solid RBs.
  16. I don't think he believes that. He just knows they peaked last year and hopes nobody noticed. Why try when you get raises for 8-4 seasons?
  17. Surely a&m rebounded well from their last Sun Belt loss right? Oh...
  18. Older guys calling out the younger higher paid kids who have no reason to love the school? This could be even quicker and better than we thought
  19. Texas 45- UTSA 17 Yards- 275
  20. Half the students weren't there from the camera shots they showed. They didn't even know they lost.
  21. Looks like a&m pulled the copyright card to avoid further embarrassment
  22. His game got rained out so he had to stay and play Saturday. Good sign that they showed up
  23. I drive a lot and don't listen to music so I have to drag the bottom out the barrel sometimes. Feldman is pretty good though so it's a wash
  24. Listening to Mandels pod and he has upgraded us from 4-8 to 7-5 after this weekends game.
  25. What a terrible decision by their AD. Even CDC had the patience to wait on hiring Beard from tech the day after the buyout dropped. This is a big money wannabe move irregardless of who you are.
