  1. There's more money in Austin alone then Louisiana.
  2. Maybe he's not as polished as we thought, but he clearly gives a shit and has put his body on the line for Texas. Hopefully it all works out here, but no matter what happens I'm rooting for the kid.
  3. LSU was a historical mid-teir program prior to Saban. Be a shame if they reverted back.
  4. The reality is this team is about equal with MSU from a talent standpoint. More high-end talent, but also glaring holes (i.e. OL). It's not the standard, and yes it's on Sark, but there's no fixing it mid-season. Enjoy whatever wins we can get. I think it's clear Sark wants out, but didn't want it getting out. But he's not getting any NFL HC offers. He either fixes things (ideal), gets "for caused" (not great but not the worst thing), or gets bought after 2-3 years of underperforming (worst case). Whatever happens, he's not walking away from $60M.
  5. Tony Annese. 138-21 record, 2 JUCO titles, 3 D2 titles. Seems like he can coach. Not exactly an "up and comer" though. But neither was Cignetti.
  6. They will lose every remaining game if they continue playing like they did last week. You think going 5-7 with the preseason #1 team is some sort of 4D chess move? Because they got reps with this shitty offense that apparently requires 1st round talent at every position to function? The goal for this season should be to tread water and finish with a somewhat respectable record. Going 9-3 and not getting completely embarrassed at UGA would be a major success at this point. Then rebuild the OL through the portal and completely reevaluate everything (and everyone) involved with the offense.
  7. It's a good investment if the guy actually hits, but they're giving these coaches Saban-like contracts for having 1-2 good seasons, which does not mean you're a good coach. Fucking Ed Orgeron and Gene Chizik won national championships.
  8. The whole thing is a racket. Jimmy Sexton is basically a hedge fund manager.
  9. The entire "industry" has become a microcosm of everything that's wrong with the economy/society in general. Both bubbles will burst at some point (probably at the same time).
  10. I wouldn't go that far. Arch can't make basic throws, but Beck is a turnover machine. It's close.
  11. He's carried Sark for 2 years.
  12. PK has carried this program for 2 years now.
  13. Vandy's offense is so disciplined and crisp. Why can't we have that?
  14. Hopefully Robertson takes the starting job and never gives it back.
  15. I don't care what Tech does against BYU, they aren't an elite team. I have no idea what Indiana's NIL situation is, but their highest ranked recruiting class in the last 5 years was #25 in 2022. Their highest ranked portal class since 2022 (the first year of the rankings) was #19 in 2023. Maybe they're throwing around all kinds of money, but none of the rankings reflect that. I don't like Cignetti either, but the guy clearly knows how to fucking coach.
  16. The oversized T E X A S grates my nerves every time I see it. Really wish we would go back to this font (and color):
  17. He's coached 3 games against top 5 teams and has won 1. That's not bad for anyone, let alone Indiana. Never played PSU. McGuire has never lost fewer than 5 games until this season (where he has one of the most expensive rosters in CFB). And BYU? We talkin bout BYU???
  18. He's gone 1-2 against elite competition, and has won every single other game. At fucking Indiana, a historical bottom dweller. How is that not insanely impressive? Should he be undefeated the last 2 years?
  19. Are they ever gonna suspend or at the very least fine this POS?
  20. I've tried to tell people Lanning is not an upgrade. Cignetti probably is but he might be too much of a douche for UT and he's 64. Only Smart and Day would be proven upgrades, and they aren't going anywhere. It's entirely possible that there's a G5 coach out there who would kill it here, but we don't know who that is. Of the known commodities, Sark actually might be the best option. That said, I still want a real OC, and don't think we'll ever win anything without one.
  21. I mean he's not walking away from the money. He either succeeds or gets paid to go away.
  22. Even if he wants out, he's not walking away from the massive contract he just signed.
  23. Oregon says hi.
  24. Yeah fuck us. If we could just be more like Bama fans we'd have 15 natties.
