  1. I was big on Foster as a recruit and he played very well his freshman year. I'm not sure what happened after his freshman year but his attempts at tackling against ou his sophomore year and his terrible effort game in and game out since then have me questioning if this guy even wants to play football. I've never seen a guy that was a good tackler and a hard hitter become so soft. I'm not sure if it's injuries, if he's scared to get hurt again, or if he's let the programs loser mentality permeate. Either way, it's a bitch ass move to quit in the middle of a game, especially the first game of the season. I lost all respect for him as a player after that.
  2. The longhorn blitz talked about this but Orakpo apparently beat up Ryan Palmer during a weight lifting session because he wasn't putting effort in. Ryan Palmer was Orakpo's roommate. They talked about how the other players thought that if he would beat up his own roommate, they were scared what he would do to them. Meanwhile, our starting WR who is supposed to be a leader thinks it's okay to show up to practice late, get into it with the head coach, and blame others when he himself is playing at a poor level. He then proceeds to quit with 3 games left. Our starting safety and leader, BJ Foster, quit the team in the middle of the game last year. You can find multiple players with similar attitudes. Casey cleaned out his locker prior to the season bc he got beat out during fall camp by Hudson Card, that's how mentally weak these players are. The fact that Bo Davis had to have that rant bc players are laughing on the bus after a 4th straight embarrassing loss should tell you everything you need about this team. These players are accustomed to being losers. They don't have any shame about their performance, because if they did, you'd see them giving a fuck. I'm all on board on a full blown purge his off season. This is going to be a 2-3 year rebuild. They need to purge anyone that isn't fully bought in.
  3. Anytime a Jr even has a remotely decent season, they bolt for the NFL. We’ve lacked talented senior leadership for a while now. When your leaders are your most talented and hardest workers is when you have good “team” and a good culture. Right now our “leaders”… Casey and Josh Moore are players to at clean out their lockers and transfer or threaten to transfer at the first sigh of adversity. Our other leader is a back up running back. Hard for players to follow these guys. I’m hoping Worthy and Bijan can grow into these roles in the off-season. We will need them to. We’re also going to need an experienced QB to portal here to help with that. Card is the opposite of vocal leader, he’s about as quiet as they come. I doubt he or Casey are on this roster next season. TLDR, the talented recruits from the 2017, 2018, and 2019 classes have either busted, transferred, entered the draft as soon as they could. It has left us with JAGs leading this program. This roster needs turnover quickly.
  4. Holding till the moon brother!
  5. Fuck this entire AD and fuck this staff as well. We get handed an opportunity to really flex and even the playing field. Seems like our AD would rather our boosters give money to them than the players and it does not surprise me in the least bit. I really hope our fanbase starts withholding donations. I find it hard to support an athletic department that does not care to win and that continuously finds new ways to fail.
  6. Just bought more UUUU. Fuck it. It's my only stonk making money for me. Let's ride this baby up!
  7. Aggy’s tradition is definitely not my cup of tea, but yeah…. Recruits have a blast at their games and that’s what matters. Whoever planned this big recruiting weekend against Kansas was a fucking moron. The stadium is going to be half empty…
  8. I think all of what you said if valid. Our fear is that our mounting losses and team getting exposed is going to give him pause and make him rethink if the Austin college experience is worth stepping into this mess. It’s one thing to join a 8-9-10 win team and help the get over the hump… it’s another thing to join a team that is staring at not making a bowl game …
  9. The players that want to go to the NFL and the players that want to win championships don’t come here. We get left with recruits that Bama, LSU, tOSU, aggy, UGA pass on. The guys we’re getting are comparable to the players at Tech, TCU, okie state but they are entitled bc they wear the Texas logo and are more into the hype of playing for Texas than putting the work in. Outside of the elite talents like Bijan and Worthy, most 4 stars are no better than the 3 stars when they hit campus. These star rankings mean jack shit when they don’t put in the work once they get on campus. It’s why most of our players look good their freshman year and then they regress. We do not develop talent nor do the players give a fuck. Listen to Xavier Worthy’s comments about how he can’t make the rest of the team play hard. Listen the J’Tavian Sanders interview where he talks about there being no sideline energy during games. They need process out players that are mentally weak and players that care more about partying in Austin than playing football. We definitely have a culture problem and a loser mentality …
  10. I’m staying with burnt ends as well but I’m not sure what impact it’s really making. Not sure 10k a year is going to get us a difference maker at TE. I think it would have been more impactful if we signed 1 badass recruit a year for a 1 time 70k payment once they sign but I don’t make these decisions. I just want to do what I can to improve Longhorn football and this is one way to do it. Atleast we are trying. Fuck this university for not finding every way for us to be the leader in this space. CDC should have had a million dollars lined up from one of our fucking sponsors and divided that up amongst the team in whichever way. That would have been a fucking statement to recruits and it would have been a dime in the grand scheme of the athlete in department’s budget.
  11. Look, I was the front of the line in the fire Mack crowd, I shat on him nonstop. With that said, I’m was 100% wrong. I would get on my knees and beg him to come back to fix this shit. North Carolina is a top 10 team and landing 5 stars…
  12. There’s a few posters here still stuck in the 2000s mind set. Aggy has the most wins of any Texas school the last decade. Aggy has had a Heisman winner in the last decade. Aggy has put multiple 1st rounders in the NFL the last decade. Aggy has the best DC in college football and has one of the few active coaches that has won a national championship. We’re the aggy now… we are so far behind them in building the infrastructure to compete in the SEC. We need to fix our shit and hope they stumble to change the narrative. Bc they are dropping bags and these recruits were like fucking 4-5 years old the last time we were competitive on the field… I hate aggy so it really pained me to type this out.
  13. Lmao, Ewers didn’t come here as a recruit bc he believed we couldn’t compete for the CFP and we were 7-3. Why would he transfer now when we’re competing against Kansas for bowl eligibility.
  14. At this point, just okay a base nickel defense with 4 DL. No blitzes. No funny shit. Just simple base defense. I bet we would get better results…
  15. Also, I want to point out how fucked this program is. I watched the post game press conference. Sark said they told the team the trick play was coming and they had practiced defending it. They told them the play was coming on that specific down and we still couldn’t defend it. This team is broken. There is nothing they can do to fix them. They need to do whatever they can to get to bowl eligibility bc they need the reps to try to coach some level of competency into them.
  16. It’s because these players don’t know how to win. They are quitters. Our fucking starting QB cleaned out his locker when he wasn’t handed the starting job. This is the same guy we were asking to “lead” this team. This roster isn’t as bad as people are making it out to be. There are some talented guys forsure. Are they Bama talented, HELL NO! But this program has enough talent to compete in this shit conference. The problem is that we are a terrible “team”. They don’t play for one another. They fold when they get punched. They are entitled. These coaches have no idea how to turn this around either. Which of the coaches on this roster has ever rebuilt a program? We should have fucking hired Matt Campbell or anyone that has actually proven to rebuild a program. This admin needs to completely do away with the Longhorn media and give the coaches time to rebuild this. We’re in a dark dark spot and I think it’s going to take us 5+ years to dig us out of this hole. Sam willed this team to mediocrity. He even got us a NY6 win and one big 12 championship appearance. Do you see any other players maybe outside of Rojo that loves wearing the burnt orange? These players don’t care and when it gets tough, they think transferring is the answer. I don’t know how to fix this and I’m not sure it’s fixable until there is a full blown change in attitude and desire to win within the AD. We haven’t even hit rock bottom yet, wait till we are the Vandy of the SEC… those teams are going to butt fuck us every week.
  17. Beard is a motherfucking badass that knows what needs to be done to win a championship. Let this badass motherfucker run our entire athletic department.
  18. Good 3 stars… I don’t even know man. I’m still drunk from last night. Fuck me
  19. Yup, I did not watch a single minute of the game. I’m about as die hard of a fan there is. I’m not only done with this team, I’m done with this program and administration. They brought a bunch of assistant coaches from Bama that have elite talent and have a bag network and expected them to do the same here where neither is present. Oh yeah, I also want to emphasize that they hired a recovering addict that has a 7 win avg. This program only cares about $$$ and eyeballs. I’m giving them neither. Not worth ruining your weekends.
  20. Arch isn’t coming to a team fighting for bowl eligibility. This team and coaching staff have dug themselves a hole. At this point they need to hold on to any decent players in our current class and they need to hit the reset button and quickly find some 3 star that can play. The elite talent they are chasing is not going to come to a program struggling for bowl eligibility. If they plan on waiting till the end to find back up plan, we will be left with our dicks in our hand on NSD. I’ve seen this play out, we get turned down by who we want and then we get turned down by all of our plan Bs, plan Cs, plan D’s … and then we end up with guys like Max Merril…
  21. Well they just punched Bama in the mouth and that defense is only going to get better with how they are recruiting. Mike Elko may be the best DC in the country. It just sucks where we are as a program. I atleast had hope after we fired Strong. It was easy to shift the narrative. Right now I just don’t see how we’re going to convince recruits to come here when they are winning big and we’re a fucking mess. And even if we were winning, they’ll still fucking buy the best recruits. This fucking administration needs to get it through their fucking head that they need to figure out a way for us to fucking evolve and set up a bag game like the rest of the country. This isn’t fucking 2004 anymore…. The we’re Texas shit has no pull.
  22. You should give a shit who commits to them…. Because most of them are players we’re trying to get. And we’re going to be playing them in a few years. Trying to beat them with recruits they passed on isn’t going to be a recipe for success. We have some moronic posters here.
  23. Aggy has 2 true freshman on the OL and a back up QB that would struggle to start for most teams…. Yet they beat the # 1 team in the country and they are 1 more Bama loss away from playing for the SEC championship. They are probably the hottest team in the country on the recruiting trail right now. I thought rock bottom was when we had Charlie Strong, but we’ve really dug ourselves a fucking crater that will be hard to climb out of. Their entire fan base wants a championship and they have set up a legit bag game and now can back their hype up with results. I’m so fucking sick of this program and what we have become. Fucking embarrassing. We’ve resorted to hoping that we can get our shit together to fucking best Iowa state so we can hopefully become bowl eligible and prevent a 4 game losing streak.
  24. Yeah, but did you hear that there are players in a group text that are talking about coming to Texas?! 🙄
