  1. My bad, I misread that part. I agree that RB room is significantly worse this year. Losing CJ was a real fucking bummer. I think Sark had big plans for him.
  2. Best OL and deepest WR room we've had under Sark. BS to say we've taken a "huge hit" in the WR room. Also, Matthew Golden has been a revelation for Texas this year. Put some fucking respect on his name. There is an argument that he's had the most consistent season by a WR in Sark's tenure so far. Your argument treats QB like it's just 1 of 11 positions on the field. It is much more than that. I think you know that, but just ignore it to carve out your position on Quinn and take it out on other players.
  3. Hilarious that a few of you just can't help shitting on other players in order to protect Quinn and pull out the "if everything else is perfect, we can win it all with Quinn" argument. We can do that with Cole Lourd as well.
  4. Based on the stuff linked here from Twitter over the last few weeks, are there any legitimate sports accounts on there anymore?
  5. Ian Boyd knows a lot more about football than me. I have liked reading his breakdowns in the past. But you don't need to be Kubrick to realize he shouldn't be on camera.
  6. Thank god Bobby started OTF. Take that away and Texas media is an absolute joke and completely unlistenable.
  7. Agreed. It has to be professional. But there is a clear opportunity for someone good at breaking down film to make a living out of this. Arch will bring a bunch of views from non-Texas fans.
  8. It's a corner of the Texas market that is missing and someone could make some nice money and build a career out of it. If we had a version of The Film Guy strictly for Texas football, it would get a ton of views. Especially with Arch the next 2-3 years.
  9. OTF is by far the best Texas YouTube channel. Not even close. Everyone is generally excited and happy to be on camera. I will say that Gerry is absolutely the MVP, and I probably wouldn't watch near as much if he wasn't involved. Wonder if next year they'd consider adding an Xs & Os guy to breakdown game film with their own segment/show. Or are they too close to the program to "risk" having a segment that could be critical of plays/players/coaches?
  10. I tried to watch a Horns247 show last night with Chip Brown and Eric Henry on YouTube. Oof. Don't know how they keep the lights on.
  11. I just looked up Quinn's longest TD plays of the season, and 4 out of the Top 5 came against FLA. 1. 50 yards to Wisner (throw back pass behind LOS) vs. FLA 2. 41 yards to Golden (short slant) vs. UGA 3. 34 yards to Bond (swing pass behind LOS) vs. FLA 4. 32 yards to Golden (deep pass) vs. FLA 5. 29 yards to Golden (fake swing pass, wide open downfield) vs. FLA
  12. My point is defenses are actually doing it vs. Texas. It's being done. On a pretty regular basis. We are turning the ball over, settling for FGs, and having trouble scoring TDs. The mission is being accomplished. We see it with our eyes, and the stats prove it as well. Unfortunately we don't capitalize on off-schedule plays very often, which can be a big part of offensive success if you just "take what the defense gives you" all game. It's not a strength for Quinn.
  13. They want to confuse him. Quinn doesn’t process well or quickly. Keep everything in front of them and tackle well. Force Texas into longer drives. Eliminate the big play, try to force FGs or turnovers. It’s not rocket science. And it’s clearly been working.
  14. Pate loves Texas. He picks us every week.
  15. That was a bad fumble, but in the middle of 15 straight minutes of assclown dumbfuckery by multiple Texas players. He's a true freshman. They make mistakes. He can only prove he can protect the ball if he gets the ball again. On the list of devastating or crucial turnovers committed by our players, his are way down the list.
  16. Arch touched the ball one time the following week vs. Georgia in OT, and it seems pretty clear Sark just wanted to get positive rushing yardage on 1st down and considered Arch the best option.
  17. We have only 3 legitimate options at RB. I like Wisner a lot. Don't think much of Blue as a ball carrier. Trying to create a physical and effective running attack almost strictly with Wisner seems foolish to me. He's a very solid RB, have liked him since Day 1 last year when he was a ST demon. He is not built to be a bellcow RB. Style wise, I think Wisner/Gibson can be an effective 1-2 punch. Our offense has been in neutral with struggles in the redzone for months (outside of the FLA game). It'd be nice to try something new.
  18. I still don't understand why we completely abandoned Jerrick Gibson in the rotation. Yeah, not a good pass blocker and had a little fumblitis later in the season, but that doesn't mean we couldn't have made him a red zone option. I mean, this timestamped series of plays is in Game 2 of the season vs. Michigan. 1st and 10 at the 20. Three Gibson runs, touchdown. Why did this end up being a random outlier?
  19. If Sark truly wants to establish a running game, throw it in the goddamn opening script. Almost every start of our games is all about throwing the ball. Every opposing defense is expecting it at this point. Against UGA last week this was our opening drive: Pass Pass Pass Pass Sack Run (on 2nd and long) INT If you're asking your O-line to be physical and dominate in the running game, maybe show your confidence in them by calling more running plays from the very start.
  20. We are entering the chem trails phase of modern technology. Cool.
  21. Now watching today's PC, and Sark was in a good mood and looked well rested. Bye week looks to have treated him well. LFG.
