  1. if i had USAA i would cancel my life insurance. that’s how much i hate their commercials.
  2. we certainly hope so, but you don’t know that. the absolute best case scenario for him was performing shittily while exacerbating what looks like a pretty serious ankle sprain. that was the best case scenario. the worst case scenario is that he turns a sprain into a tear that requires surgery, causing him to go undrafted and possibly never play a single down in the nfl. that’s the range of outcomes for him. as it is, i have a tough time seeing him being 100% at UT’s pro day after purposely making his own injury worse. but hey, at least he looked super cool and tough at the scouting combine. totally worth it.
  3. lol, it’s funny how you keep trying to make this idiotic decision into some sort of badass show of toughness by gunnar. if “handling his business differently than me” means injuring himself and then performing poorly while further injuring himself before the draft even happens, possibly to the point where he’s still injured at UT’s pro day, then yeah, he and i do business differently. i swear to god, a UT football player could shoot himself in the head and if people here criticized it some of you would still be upset about it. he did a dumb thing. its ok to admit that. these are kids who play college football, they are not gods. it’s ok to criticize them when they perform poorly or make bad decisions. this is d’onta foreman buying maseratis and sipping lean before the draft all over again. some of y’all will just blindly defend every UT player no matter what. it’s wild.
  4. why risk further injuring yourself before the draft has even happened? you can call it having guts, i call it objectively stupid. it’s one thing to play through the pain, but it’s an entirely different thing to knowingly further injure yourself (while putting up subpar times, no doubt in part due to the injury) as you try and convince nfl teams that they should draft you. what if the sprain turns into a tear after you just ran slow as shit? now you’re flirting with being an UDFA, and for what? that was a dumb move on gunnar’s part.
  5. i’d be thrilled with a mark few hiring.
  6. continuing to run and work out after injuring himself was a stupid move. literally could only do harm on multiple fronts. how was nobody in his ear telling him to rest up and get ready for UT Pro day?
  7. this would be hilarious, because doing so would only protect my right to have/post dissenting opinions while the “fuck you you fat asshole!” crowd would be the ones kicked out of the thread. so by all means, tag that shit.
  8. lol this is hilarious: https://x.com/treywallace_/status/1896007446499639304?s=46
  9. temple in 2001; usc in 2007. that’s pretty much it. he went to the sweet 16 five times in seven years, something no other coach did during the decade of the aughts. it almost certainly would have been six trips in seven years had he not lost lamar is aldridge and pj tucker kn january of 2005. barnes was an elite tourney coach for a decade. since then he’s been merely aight, although he’s been to the S16 and the E8 in his last two trips. good post though. 👌🏼
  10. getting beard, losing beard, and then getting billy donovan would be like winning the lottery, losing the ticket, and then winning the lottery again two years later.
  11. we gotta get one of oats, otzelberger, tommy lloyd, or (pipe dream) billy donovan. it’s got to be a premier, home run hire.
  12. sabonis, vucevic, gobert, reaves, butler, and nurkic (yes, nurkic, his per-minute numbers are sick!) are all suddenly injured. 🤮🤮🤮 why does it feel like this happens around this time every year?
  13. not true. he can jump very very high, so if the ball ever gets stuck behind the backboard we can just tell him to go get it.
  14. black family: #equality #inclusion #ally
  15. teams that beat us don’t even get a quad one win.
  16. i miss panama myers and courtney jeans.
  17. Doj is one of the all time underrated Longhorns. outstanding defender, crazy athlete, and a dream floor leader/break runner. just couldn’t shoot to save his life.
  18. nothing that i said was inaccurate or blown out of proportion. in fact i brought up specific talking points from the pro-RT crowd. there were legit contentious arguments on this forum where several people insisted that it was premature to judge how RT would do at Texas, for all those reasons i listed. we had enough tape on him to know better.
