  1. Leaking Golding as DC right before he potentially gives up 60 to the OSU offense would be perfectly on brand for us so I see your point.
  2. Ah didn't think it ventured into politics since it was just a goofball but better safe than sorry. Gotcha and will adjust edit: Also very fitting username since you're right, I didn't haha. Guess you can't delete posts once they've been quoted, but either way thanks for heads up.
  3. Agreed. Marques Tuiasosopo is about as likely to be our TE coach as this guy
  4. Oh that is the old Raiders/Jets QB?? God that takes me back. Announcers used to have way too much fun just saying his name as much as possible whenever he was in the game. Rest of this offensive staff is going to be absolutely beastly regardless of which WR coach target we end up with so if he is at least a solid recruiter it probably doesn't matter what other shortcomings he has.
  5. I'll flat out admit I've never never heard of him before now but the moment I see some smaller program position coach get linked to one of our HC due to 'them having history' I automatically assume he fucking blows until proven otherwise. That is what the 2010s have done to me.
  6. Or a very small seat belt that would fit a pet monkey?
  7. I'd really like him on staff for recruiting, but if he's demanding play calling responsibilities and oregon will give him that, you just have to move on. The recruiting isn't worth sacrificing the entire defense. When we hired Joseph it made me wonder if perhaps that was part of also landing Lupoi. His issue at Bama was playcalling but specifically because he just had no advanced grasp on passing defenses. So get him on staff as Co-DC non-playcaller and he can learn from Joseph whose specialty is exactly that (passing defense schemes). Win-win for both of us and it sets Lupoi up to either be more prepared for his next true DC gig or even to be our primary DC if whoever we get to 'run' the defense gets a HC gig within first couple of years. I have serious doubts Oregon is going to hand him the keys to their entire defense any more than we would and a second failing by Lupoi would probably mark the forseeable end to his full DC / HC dreams so maybe he will be more open minded to what we can provide. Unlikely but it could happen. The problem in that scenario is we still have no one who can coach CBs / LBs and generally Lupoi has focused on the DL. Maybe he focuses instead on LBs and Golding shifts back to being a secondary coach like he was earlier in his career? I'll just say it right now that if we roll into 2021 with only Joseph, whose not really a player development guy nor a corner-specialty guy either, and Blake goddamn Giddeon as our only two secondary coaches we deserve the impending disaster that heralds. Maybe you get some dynamite sub-assistant level guys or something
  8. Wait.. did Wiggins really follow Zach Smith? I'm going to take that as evidence he really is coming to Texas and he is simply brushing up on his Tom Herman drama so he can better relate to the survivors in our program upon his arrival.
  9. It's funny. I started this process with Banks as probably my #1 desired assistant hire for Sark to land because of his recruiting prowess but now I just want him here for the pet monkey and stripper GF memes
  10. Maybe the delay to Wednesday is a construction crew installing several in their new home in Austin?
  11. Packing a pet monkey into a Uhaul is probably annoying so I'm taking this is direct confirmation Banks is coming to Texas!!
  12. He can be Sean Peyton's assistant when he joins Texas as an analysts
  13. So even more conflicting bullshit between the clueless insiders. Yesterday it was all "If we can't get Quinn, Arnett is the clear number 2 guy!" and well we sure as fuck are not getting Quinn. The way you know this is bullshit is because even if you Do want Golding over Arnett you are probably still in the very least sending Arnett exploratory dick picks right now and hedging your bets. Chances are too high that Golding will change his mind, or Satan will somehow find a way to fuck us
  14. Enough to leave the best DC job in the country under the best coach in the country where he has the most talent in the country and has a chance to potentially establish himself as HCIW with Sark now out of the picture? He and Sark must sure be soul mates if that happens. You are right, though; the language I used was perhaps overly demonstrative in saying the only reason he would leave Bama is a firing or Saban retirement. I should have said the only remotely plausible reason for him to leave is that he gets fired and we become his soft landing spot.
  15. Saban isn't 'Allowing' anything. Sark left on his own and the only coach actually likely to be coming with him on the offensive side of the ball is Flood (who would pick Sark over Saban, Saban's wishes be damned, because he is a Sark guy to start with). If we end up with Golding it is because Saban is firing his ass. No other reason. Golding is not picking Texas over Bama, or Sark over Saban, or any other nonsense. The only way he becomes available is if Saban is tired of having to score 60 points every time he plays a good team because Golding can't stop the spread. That doesn't make Golding a bad hire, he would still be an improvement over what we've had, it just makes him not as good as what Saban thinks he can get (likely Muschamp in that scenario though I will be ungodly salty if we take Golding only for Saban to turn around and hire Arnett)
  16. Well apparently what you do is find a slow kid dating a 6 and have him start fucking the 8 so you can feel less bad about getting with the 10.
  17. Its an inside joke with a Bama friend who always says it with an F (because Fuck Lupoi) kinda like our FCB, and its gotten the point where I just legitimately had a brain fart and didn't realize I still using the wrong spelling on here, too LOL
  18. Yeah but it was still an objectively worse decision to promote Lufoi than our decision to hire Beck. Lufoi had to be stripped of his DC duties in all but name like 3 weeks into the season with Saban just doing it himself to get through that stretch. Really pointless for us to argue about that though because I actually agree with you on Golding. He seems to be a very good coach and we could do far worse.
  19. Well he employed Lufoi as a DC and Lufoi was far worse as a DC than Beck was an OC. So literally yes in answer to your question. edit: to be clear I actually rather like Golding. Much prefer Arnett since I think he is a 'yes' we could get right now and avoid the damned drama or risk of having to reach for a C tier guy, but Saban is definitely not infallible when it comes to promoting the wrong guys up within his team.
  20. This is what its going to look like on the sideline every time we get a pick:
  21. Huh? The TFB update only mentions Freeman in the context that Ash to LSU is now a possibility that Freeman has passed on them. Perhaps you are talking about a different update than I.
  22. Arnett is a LB coach by trade I believe so he would definitely handle that unit. He also probably doesn't need two DL coaches in his system. Its a flex 3-3-5 that he does change up week to week but I'd think having Davis - DL, Arnett - LB, Joseph - Safeties / Passing D Cord, ??? - CBs (pls be Raymond) and then Gideon as ST / helper with LBs and nickels would make a ton of sense. Adequately covers the secondary and still lets you go get a rainmaker at TE. edit: Oh, I would just as happily take Ansley as Co-DC (non-primary) coaching CBs if that report about him wanting out at Fake-UT is true. Raymond would be the sexy hire but Ansley is very damn good himself assuming we are confident he's clean of their scandal.
  23. Have we actually had a TE coach the past decade? I haven't been able to tell
  24. Yeah there is no reason to believe those 'reports' at all if they are even swirling. He was well regarded at Akron and then spend some tutoring under his mentor, arguably the best current offensive mind in football, at Bama.. there is no fucking way Ark St wouldn't want him unless they discovered some massive red flag we are unaware of.
