  1. Not that I disagree with the first statement, you’re absolutely correct. But I would say Ohio State rubbing their nuts all over our face and taking a potentially generational QB out of Southlake from us in an extremely public manner while getting him paid in the exact thing that we are currently sucking at warrants at least some handwringing.
  2. This game goes one of two ways. 1. Sark unveils the most potent UT offense since the halcyon days of Colt, and PK’s defense suffocates them to the tune of 49-10 beat down that is never in doubt and would be worse except they scored a TD against our scrubs in garbage time and our offense is the 3rd string to start the 4th quarter. 2. The offense operates with hesitancy and growing pains as various flaws like crappy WR and suspect OL are exposed in the first game of the season for a RS frosh QB learning on the job. It doesn’t matter because PK’s defense suffocates them and we still waltz through with a 28-3 win and lots of tape for our offense to learn from going forward. Either way, we’re not losing this fucking game. Our defense is going to be too damn good for that to happen. Could we be disappointed in the offense? Sure, but this defense will keep us in every game on our schedule, and will flat out win most games for us.
  3. Good. Let’s shit in their cereal on the way out.
  4. Kai Money is a nice story. I hope he makes a couple of 3rd down catches to extend drives. That being said, shut the fuck up about Kai Money. Getting back to DJ Monroe… Badass Kick Return
  5. Lots of folks surprised by this QB snap allocation news. Why? Literally the only advantage Thompson has over Card is seniority. Yeah he balled out in the bowl game, which gruntles me. It's good to know he's got it in him. Aside from that, pretty much everybody and everything says Card is the better prospect. Better mechanics, better athlete, higher ceiling, more willing to take shots, which Sark wants. Maybe the timeline is more accelerated than we anticipated, but I don't get being surprised that Card has the edge.
  6. I mean, at one point they said with a straight face that our 2017 Oline was better than 2014 Ohio State. Goodbye credibility with that one. Between that and bending over for Maryland in the first game, it’s hard to believe that I fell for their shit at the time. What can I say, I love kool-aid.
  7. Conversely, look at the things that the Herman regime said were strengths!
  8. Honestly, that kid looks exactly how I want my linemen to look. Like a giant dude who will kick your ass.
  9. Sooooo…. At what point do we admit that there is a big ass recruiting problem right now? Like, we as a board come to an agreement and stop nitpicking about details and just goddamned agree that something is definitely wrong with our attempts to get good football players to come play for our team. It seems like every time people point out that “shit is currently fucked up” it turns into a debate, as if we all aren’t privy to the exact same buttfucking information about how the good football players don’t want to come here as of right now. I feel like if we can admit that then our bullshitting will at least feel more productive as we brainstorm for ideas our staff should pursue, but definitely won’t.
  10. Talk about circular logic! “We don’t like Texas because we think they try to run things.” ”We left the Big 12 for the Big 10 with our tails between our legs because we got our ass kicked in both football and political maneuvering, beginning realignment musical chairs resulting in the dilution of the Big 12 with shitass West Virginia and TCU.” -Texas stays in the conference for another decade, keeping it afloat- -Texas stands to lose money and football recruiting by being stuck with dregs after Nebraska blows up the conference, so after a decade finally gives in to the inevitable and finds actual peers- “See! I told you Texas would destroy the conference, my narrative is validated!”
  11. Rumor is they’re a bunch of asshats who left the Big 12 primarily because of us, and would probably not want to see us again. Between that and their dipshit QB from a few years back I’d add them in to the fuck pile.
  12. I say do it. Do it to fuck with the Aggies and Mizzou. Do it to fuck with Tech. Do it to leave Fatterson on an island alone with Mike Gundy so they can suck each other off. Do it so we can play Arky, LSU, and Aggo rather than KU, ISU, and KSU. And fuck West Virginia while we’re at it. Burn the whole goddamn thing down and let’s go conquer the SEC. Those rubes don’t know what they’re doing inviting the wolf into their house. Let’s fuckin do it!
  13. My buddy is from Yutan, Nebraska and is a lifelong Husker fan. I knew we were fucked when he started laughing maniacally at me when we hired Watson. He had been bitching about Watson for years beforehand, so yeah I had a pretty fuckin bad feeling about that one from the jump, despite liking the Charlie hire initially.
  14. Nope, but I’ve got some thoughts on Napoleon’s handling of Operation Barbarossa if you guys are interested.
  15. It’s on them if they make recruiting decisions based on obviously shaky information. Everybody on the planet knows these kids are fickle. You gotta have backup plans for your backup plans. Telling players ready to visit “Naw, we’re good” (as reported) and then having the rug pulled out from under us like we’re goddamned Loony Tunes antagonists is a pretty shitty look. I ain’t Chicken Little, but things sure don’t look rosy on the recruiting front at the moment. I hope we get something going soon, because contrary to Mensa’s bylaws momentum is a real thing.
  16. At this juncture, I am mentally prepared to miss on everyone we want during the summer, go balls to the wall during the season, and end up either flipping them back or getting newer, better recruits when it’s all said and done. That or crash spectacularly and require a liver transplant.
  17. Good thing we have a “Worthy” WR in the pipeline that’s presumably not made of glass, discontent, and dumbbells for hands.
