  1. When the stars aligned with NFL talent, Flood’s lines have been effective. Mostly at pass blocking but effective. So the ceiling with Flood when given two NFL tackles is effective. We also discovered the floor in 2025 when we fielded one of the worst offensive lines in the entire country until late in the season. Recruiting and development have both been serious questions and you can also add current roster evaluation as we were playing Stroh at LG this season until we stumbled upon a combination that stopped leaking like a sieve. And you think it would be difficult to replace a ceiling of effective and a floor of bottom 10% in the country at Texas?
  2. I like how the people who disagree with me just act incredulous instead of stating their reasons for why they disagree. Yes Flood returning and doing 2025 Flood things again should be a fireable offense. I’m sorry you see it differently.
  3. If a position coach did such a colossally bad job managing his room that it cost Texas a playoff chance and that same position needs to be treated like a five alarm fire in the transfer portal, there is no excuse for 2026. Flood coming back is like watching your child set your house on fire and not even taking his matches away. The next fire is not the kid’s fault.
  4. I think Texas fans need to get used to the idea that Flood is coming back next year. If that happens and we see below average line play in Arch’s final year, it should cost Sark his job. He is allowing the person who sank the 25 season to come back and if it does not work out, I’m no longer blaming Flood. I sure hope Sark knows what he is doing.
  5. The previous coach is involved in cheating and recruiting scandals that involved him lying to the NCAA and being suspended twice for major violations. He is not fired. The second coach has sex with an employee and is fired for it. Michigan not being consistent with its conduct policy because the previous coach was winning against Ohio St is going to open the door for racial bias allegations. It’s not racism driving these decisions but the win at all costs mindset and I for one am happy to see them get all of the criticism they can get even if it is misdirected.
  6. This is going to go down as one of the all time heaters he is on. Legend status.
  7. There were signs.
  8. Ordering Plan B on door dash might be the funniest part of the story. We all know you make the women order that shit and you Venmo her after. Usually with a sad face emoji.
  9. Holy fucking shit this offseason.
  10. Equity is the most expensive form of capital and private equity structures this are the most expensive form of equity. If Utah just borrowed 500M from a bank at 5% and used TV revenues as collateral I do not think anyone would see any problem with it.
  11. This is the most 9.95 update ever. Who pays for this shit?
  12. I am saying Choice inherited a great group of running backs from another coach. And he did coach those players well. When we were left with the players he evaluated and recruited things went to shit pretty quickly. And for that he definitely deserves criticism. Even last year in advanced metrics Texas running backs were near the bottom of the SEC.
  13. It’s also completely reductive to say recruiting is just about convincing someone to play for you. Evaluation is every bit as important if not more than the convincing part. This is the issue I have with Choice. His players like him and he made sure not to screw up sure things but man he was kind of shit in picking the right guys to play for Texas.
  14. I just cannot reconcile how someone could watch Stroh practice in the spring and think to themselves “Yep that’s what we need to start at LG for a playoff run in the SEC”. There is no way Flood should be allowed to coach at Texas next year.
