  1. I would welcome Choater the Goater back with open arms.
  2. I know this is probably dumb, but is Jimmy Lake completely out of the question? Terrible HC and only so-so as a DC, but him calling the backfield of a PK defense could be great.
  3. I get the impression that he has not been the best influence on Sark off the field.
  4. For real. Roberson can get the fuck out. Dude is a moron and a liability.
  5. I'll take one last shot at this, and then I'm going to move on: I'm not talking about what I want to happen or what I don't want to happen. My subjective feelings have nothing to do with what is reasonable and what is unreasonable. His buyout will be $55 million in 2026. The No. 1 recruiting class in 2025 will still have one year left before any of those guys are draft eligible. Sarks track record at Texas, while perhaps not what we want, is not bad enough to warrant firing the guy. Nobody gives a shit about our rushing stats or misses in the OL room. That shit is the trees, and you need to look at the forest. Sark is the most successful coach at Texas since pre-2010 Mack. Going 9-3 in 2026 cannot reasonably justify paying Sark's enormous buyout, risking the loss of one of the most talented rosters we've ever had, and throwing us into the backroom casino that is a coaching search. Take this to heart or don't, it doesn't make a difference to me because I'm not arguing with you. I'm just trying to tell you how it is.
  6. You're in your feelings and I get it. I sympathize. I'm on this board every day and I know every argument you've made or could make. But the idea that we would fire Sark next season simply for missing the CFP is not reasonable. He would have to crash and burn into a losing season, or have some massive scandal fall, for it to be reasonable to even consider firing him 2026.
  7. You're not being reasonable. First and most importantly - there are head coaches who have gone through several "NFL QBs" and not anything close to what Sark has won. You really think we're gonna fire the guy who recruited Ewers in the portal and snagged Manning? Just because he didn't win the NC? Second, have we really come around to Ewers as an "NFL QB," like he went in the first round? I love the dude, but let's be real about what he was. That we were in contention for a national title with him under center is point in Sark's favor. Third, You really want to fire a guy who made the playoffs twice, made the SEC CCG, won the Big 12, and has consistently recruited classes in the top-5? Dude literally just recruited the No. 1 class last year. He's 47-20 at Texas, with only 8 of those losses coming since 2022. I applaud your high standards and on an emotional level agree with your sentiment, but there is no way in hell that we are firing Sark next season for missing the CFP.
  8. Fuck. That's actually a good point. Catching a couple of high-end OL recruits from Michigan or elsewhere could give Sark just enough ammo to justify keeping Flood on the staff.
  9. Obviously it's Neto's baby and he's staying around Austin to help raise the boy.
  10. Good way to get your building burned down.
  11. Feels like we're losing one of the most important lodestars of this board
  12. Maybe he just had the yips /s
  13. I don't like this new thing where you say reasonable and factually accurate stuff.
  14. More like the skeeziest, amiright? Fine by me. I want us to go in there, win, get good reps for next year's contributors, no injuries, and bounce. So much fucking drama this post season. I want us to just waltz our way down the high road.
  15. Sounds like he went to his wife first and threatened to kill himself. Then he left, went to the side piece, and threatened to kill her and then himself. Allegedly.
  16. I wish that I thought highly enough of our staff to believe they were playing 4-D chess with Michigan head-to-heads. It's not just NIL or Moore or the fancy helmets. That program could be an absolute shit show next season. You have no idea what kind of coaching staff will be there, what they will value in players, what they will emphasize, etc. There may have been informal commitments about playing time, development, and other opportunities. The AD is probably getting the axe too, which just amplifies the potential issues. Not saying you're necessarily wrong, but let's not discount the FUD that has to be setting in for Michigan's 2026 class. If there are any cracks, this is an opportunity to split them wide open.
  17. I don't think Mack is a jag at all. One would hope that the staff has a plan because otherwise how can they let Mack go? He's far from a bad player.
