  1. Arch's short interview before the Peach Bowl: A couple of things to note - - He immediately says Wingo and Deandre Moore when asked who he has a good rapport with. Makes sense but still a great sign as our top returning WRs. - When asked about what he learned from his 2 starts, he said that "if I get game-like reps in practice, it will carry over." Let's remember that Arch enrolled at Texas in January 2023. We are right now entering Year 3 with Sark's offense and playbook. This will be his first Spring getting starter reps. He clearly held the ball too long and was adjusting to game speed in real time vs. UTSA and ULM at times. Better vs. Miss St. Win or lose vs. Ohio State, he's gonna learn A TON after Week 1, then has a month of cupcakes (and a bye sprinkled in) to get prepared for SEC play.
  2. The only thing not to love when watching the Rockets is Ryan Hollins. His patented "The Rockets have to be careful here..." line came at the start of the 2nd quarter when we were up 5. Ok, man. Then we proceed to outscore Denver 41-25 in the 2nd q.
  3. RB situation is gonna be pretty interesting next year. Good chance that Wisner, Gibson, Simon, and Stewart are the only projected healthy RBs heading to Columbus for Game 1. I hope for the best with Baxter and Christian Clark, but we're probably lucky to have either 100% ready to go by start of conference play. We'll see, but I expect the offense to look quite different next year with Arch. Fewer condensed formations and misdirections. More downhill blocking and physical running attack. We'll probably see Arch go under center a decent amount too. I like Wisner a lot. But we need another RB to step up and be 1B (if not 1A).
  4. Chills every time I watch this clip, Fucking epic.
  5. Quandre is talking to himself there a bit. He passively criticized Quinn a few times on Twitter during our games.
  6. Great news. Wish Quinn the best in the NFL.
  7. Golden has excellent body control as well.
  8. I swear to fuck. Maybe it is Johntay, but the fact that some dipshit Miami Hurricane fan "reports" this and it gets to Texas message boards as fact makes me ragey. Fuck you, Elon, for ruining Twitter. I mean, let's check out this dude's previous tweet from 26 minutes ago:
  9. AGREED. I can't stand Lanning and it's all because of looking like Herman.
  10. As long as NIL/portal is the Wild West with little to no restrictions, it's gonna happen a lot more.
  11. I know that. There is a shitload of talent on this team, we're gonna be losing future NFL guys every year in the portal.
  12. It still hurts, no doubt. But my heart skipped a beat when Simmons was mentioned earlier today.
  13. Hate to lose guys, but if you told me the only "big" transfers are Muhammad and Derek Williams, I take that in a heartbeat.
  14. I guess we'll see, but it feels like Sark's plan was to focus on the Spring Portal. There was a lot of crazy money and desperation in the first portal opening. We targeted and signed a few guys, but no need to get desperate and money whip other players that visited. We have recruited well. I'm sure he wants to see the progress of our young guys after a couple more months of conditioning/workouts before deciding on some other portal needs and acquisitions.
  15. I think some people are still stuck in a version of college football that doesn't exist anymore. Portal, NIL, and 12 team playoff changed everything. There is no rebuilding when a program is clicking. Just reloading.
  16. Golden looks like a plug and play WR in the NFL right now. Should be a 2nd or 3rd rounder at worst if he doesn't test poorly at the combine.
  17. I do not, but anyone is free to rip it and post on YouTube if they want.
  18. I'll post this again. PFF graded Arch's game vs. Mississippi State at 94.2. Not only was he the highest graded Power 4 QB in Week 5, it was the highest rated game by a P4 QB through the first 5 weeks of the season. People sluff off that Mississippi State game/performance, but the Bulldogs came to play that day. They held the ball for 10 more minutes than Texas and had 50 carries on offense (including Van Buren's runs/sacks). Blue had 2 bad fumbles, tons of offensive penalties, and Cook dropped a breadbasket 60+ yard TD. If Arch doesn't play as well as he did, that would have been a much closer game.
  19. Just a reminder of the massive improvement Arch showed from Year 1 to Year 2 in Spring Games. 2023: 2024:
  20. Quinn was struggling and in a panic Sark threw Arch into the fire for 2 series. Terrible situation and holding any negativity from it is dumb.
  21. Facebook would eventually die without the scams, trolls, lies, and conspiracy theories. There's only so much bullshit his AI bots can create that can appease the dumbass users. This is simply greed and a survival move by Zuckerberg. Fuck him.
  22. Imagine another college team seeing Ewers coached by Sarkisian, with a Joe Moore finalist OL that includes an Outland/Lombardi winning Left Tackle, 1,000 yard rusher, TE and WRs that are about to be NFL draft picks, and thinking, "Offer $6 million. We can fix him."
  23. Would be a nice fit on his hometown Houston Texans.
  24. Quinn said he's going to the NFL, so I'm assuming he's going to the NFL. I would be fucking pissed if he went to the portal. As immamac said, his legacy at Texas would be immediately tarnished. But more importantly IMO, Sark bent over backwards to protect and lift up Quinn this year, possibly to the detriment of our potential on offense. The succession plan was clearly Ewers to the NFL and Arch taking over in 2025. We rushed Quinn back vs. OU, had him limping around the field vs. Kentucky even when the game got uncomfortable. Sark did everything he could to keep Quinn on the field and to avoid a QB controversy. He was injured most of the year and that was a consistent excuse given when our offense struggled. If he transfers to another school, let's get in a fucking time machine and hand the keys to Arch after the UTSA game. So anyways, thank you, Quinn. You were a great Longhorn. Now please go ahead and announce for the NFL draft.
  25. For the love of fuck, press send on the "Thank you, Texas. I'm declaring for the draft" note, Quinn.
