    Cristobal, assuming his entire "operation" comes with him.

    Seriously. A 6 page thread because a teenager changed some pictures on social media? If you're reading this Jake (hopefully you're not), this is the extreme fringe of the fanbase. Most of us want to see you and the team play well.. just hold onto the ball.

    Fuck off with the puritan bullshit.

    Herman lost me today. I really thought he was the guy when we hired him. Even after losing to Maryland twice, going 8-5 in a season in which we were supposed to contend for the conference/playoffs, and last week's shitstorm, I still held out hope. Wishful thinking on my part. At this point, it's painfully obvious that he's at best an average coach. There are just too many data points to ignore. If the higher ups actually give a shit about winning, we'll cut bait and hire Urban.

    The fact that they felt they had to run hurry up in order to get into the end zone on 1st and goal from the 1 says it all. Pitiful.

    They were getting pretty good pressure most of the game. It's hard to get sacks when the QB can immediately throw to an open WR.

    So you're saying we need to hire Louisiana's DC?

    Fire Mike Yurcich

    Damn.

    We're vulnerable up the seam. It was noticeable even against UTEP. Needs to get fixed fast.

    The best was "It was just his heel that was out of bounds!"

    One of, if not the best, games we'll see this season, and they're just completely dejected.
  12. TXpride
    Is Riley Mark Helfrich? I'm starting to think so.
  13. TXpride
    So we'll just end up like OU if we ever make it to the playoff?

    While it certainly sucks that Hand wasn't able to land at least one of Brockermeyer/Byrd/Fatheree, Lengyel and Merril fit the profile of athletic kids with room to fill out. I see why we prioritized them over lumbering guys like Erick Cade and Cole Carson. I know everyone hated the Lengyel offer because he was a low 3 star and had "too much sunshine" or some stupid shit, but he's now an 85 composite. Him and Merril look very similar to me. And both play 6A, so the private school thing is irrelevant. Again, I'd much rather have one of Brockermeyer/Byrd/Fatheree, but I can see what the staff is looking at. And Hand (or any other staff member) isn't making any offers without Herman signing off.

    Well we have to take someone. I like Merril's film way more than Cade, not that that's saying much
  16. TXpride
    What do you think of Max Merril? He looks pretty athletic on film. He'll need to bulk up though.

    Agree with OP. The darker logo had a rustic look that was unique to Texas. Now we have the same bright orange as everyone else.

    Hey Orlando,

    The "only person" to blame... What an incredibly delusional take.

    I know nothing about evaluating OL, but Lengyel looks pretty athletic to me.
  22. TXpride
    Herman helped make the well-oiled machine in Columbus, FWIW.

    Riley is a great offensive mind, but he could just as easily be the next Mark Helfrich as the next Knute Rockne. OU should've been about 8-4 last year. You look at some of the games they've squeaked out in his tenure, combined with the ass-rapings they've taken in the playoffs, and suddenly he's not such a sure thing. This season (if/when it actually happens) will tell us a lot about both Riley and Herman. By year 4, it's all on the current head coach.
  24. TXpride
    I will say this with regard to Herman vs. Riley: I know who I'd rather have coaching a playoff game. The question is if he can actually get there.
  25. TXpride
    I'll wait until the end of the season to take a definitive stance. I don't know if Tom is "the guy" (unlikely, since there have only been 2 in the history of the program), but he's built a solid foundation. The roster is in the best shape it's been in a decade. Now you could say that any dumbass should be able to build a talented roster at Texas, and I won't argue with that... but at the very least, he's done a better job than late Mack/Charlie (not saying much, I know). This season (if it happens) will tell us everything we need to know. I wouldn't be shocked if we made a run to the playoff, in which case the "Fire Herman" crowd all look like idiots; I also wouldn't be surprised by another 8-5 showing. We shall (hopefully) see.
