    But Casey’s fumble and int did happen. The QB that leads Texas into the future is not on this roster. That is pretty clear 

    Thompson would be a good backup assuming he's willing to do that.  At the least, Card needs to sit for multiple seasons before he's ready to play at this level.

    We completely botched the end of the Mack Brown era. He helped tremendously in the botching. Charlie Strong's failure created a negative feedback loop and a losing culture that we haven't been able to shake. Kids who Texas recruits barely remember the 2009 Texas team. We've been a struggling program for most of their lives. The only thing that will change that is winning, and that will take a special coach who can get players to buy in to his message. Finding that coach is extremely difficult not only because of the limited number of quality coaches, but also because it requires a whole lot of luck.

    Sark might be the guy. It doesn't look good so far, but he's going to get a chance to right the ship. If he can't, we start all over again two or three years from now, one if he has a losing season next year.

    Strong was a terrible coach, but he was also given a dumpster fire of a roster which he at least improved in view of Herman's limited success with Strong's players.  A better coach could have built from that foundation and returned us to something more akin the 2000s program.  Although Herman recruited higher rated classes, he seems to have retarded the quality of the roster back to how it was when Strong arrived.

    Sark has shown flashes on offense in spite of clear talent deficiencies.  I can buy him turning that unit around with enough time.  The defense though is an absolute disaster and i'm skeptical it can be fixed before Sark is fired.

  3. Sark will get another year because of the money, the ego of the retards who hired him, and the fear that firing him now will make it more difficult to hire a replacement.
     

    Whether Sark is fired in 2022 or 2023 will come down to whether we just suck or are disastrously awful next season. That probably comes down to who he hires to retool his defensive staff and what transfers he lands this off-season.  I don’t have much hope of Sark succeeding on either front, but the bar is now so low with this program that he might survive next season through simple dumb luck and regression.

    He’s not getting fired after 1 season. 

    But he best clean house this offseason and burn this program to the ground to rebuild it from scratch. 

    But wasn’t his staff supposed to be the reason why he was a good hire?  The idea that he would bring along his Bama buddies and a DC with an impeccable resume?

    People don't want to say it but this roster is about what Mack left Strong. That's where we are at. 

     

     

    Pretty funny that Charlie Strong, the worst coach ever here, lest the program in better shape than Mack and Herman.

  6. Not saying the “no one could win with these players” people are wrong, but if that is true, then why did almost everyone on this site expect this team to win 8+ games and at least compete for a conference championship?  
     

    I don’t remember anyone in the off-season saying Sark would be doing well to simply become bowl eligible with this roster.
