BV "the gift that keeps on giving" 😂😂😂😂 Oklahoma's Brent Venables: Don't let people walk in your mind with dirty feet There are moments of frustration and moments of humor almost weekly on the Southeastern Conference's coaches' Zoom. Rarely, however, is there a window into the soul of coaching such as what Brent Venables peeled back Wednesday. Initially discussing the difficulties in navigating the psyche of young players, especially at the quarterback position, Venables also offered a view into his holistic approach amidst a season of struggles at Oklahoma. "You’re relentless. You rehearse, you reemphasize and you reinforce, speak out loud in front of the team every single day, about our standards," said Venables, the heralded former Broyles Award winner as Clemson defensive coordinator now in his third season atop the Sooners program. "How to think the right way, how we compete, how we prepare, buying into the process and whether you’re having great success and victory or you’re in the mud, you’ve got to handle it all the exact same. "So, don’t find value and worth in other peoples’ applause because you’ll really suffer when they’re throwing rocks at you. If people on the outside of frustrated, you can imagine the determination, the things that we’re going through inside the walls." Oklahoma, which has bounced between opening day starting quarterback Jackson Arnold and backup Gentry Williams, suffered losses in its last three games to sit 4-4 with four games left on the slate. "Nobody, again, feels more disappointment quote unquote than the guys in the locker room and the coaching staff when you’re not having the output or the performance that you desire," Venables said. "You’ve got to be willing to chase what it requires every single day. No matter what happened yesterday, it doesn’t matter how many times you’ve done it and what kind of success you’ve had in the past, all that matters is what you do today and moving forward, because that’s what you can control. "We’re always focused on our process and controlling the controllables, and I’ve always encouraged all my players, and social media is a very dangerous place. Again, not to find value in the opinion of other people, especially when it’s people you never go speak or go ask advice from. That’s just armoring up as a human being." Consistency, Venables explained, must be hallmark. "Being in a locker room for 30 years as a coach, you’re always reinforcing and reemphasizing how you win and what the process looks like, week in and week out," he said. "What a Monday looks like. We try to provide as much structure and routine and protection from distractions, so whether the distractions are people praising you or distractions are people trying to pull at you, in regards to (saying), ‘Hey man you need to go chase something. You need to go chase the bag (payday). Go chase another opportunity.’ Or, when people are saying that you’re a bum and I’m thankful to be at a place where people care." Venables provided quite the visual as he wrapped up his comments: Don't let people inside your head with dirty feet. "Armoring up and (you) don’t want to allow people to walk in your mind with their dirty feet. That’s real," Venables said. "But at the same time listen, buddy, that’s just the way it is. And we’re in a performance-based profession, so let’s focus on us. Let’s focus on each other and let’s be great teammates and hunker down." Nothing has caught the Sooners unprepared to handle the ups and downs of this season. "We try to provide the security, the peacefulness of a routine, a structure well before the season started in talking about these things," Venables said. "We spend a lot of time throughout the year developing toughness, developing mindset, having leaders reinforce those things and no matter what, every single week, you’ve got to start completely over with your process. "Your ability to take inside the house, have great self-awareness, focus on that. When you have self-awareness, you know when you fall short and you’re willing to go right back at it. And you should always be under construction, I really believe that." And ... "It’s always seeking improvement, and the best players, the best units, the best teams they focus on improving every single day," he said. "And know that if it’s done the right way it’s probably more incremental than not. Don’t lose focus. Don’t lose our vision no matter what."

2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.
Dbeasy replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
I wanted to make a serious post to convey my deep thanks for people getting out to vote against Trump and for Harris. For me and my wife, and many other posters in this thread, the election is about far more than just political theater. It’s about serious impacts to people’s lives. For us, cancer and other health issues hit our family and led to me retiring early. While we are fine financially and are currently on my wife’s healthcare, she will have to also drop work soon due to health reasons. As many of you know, until Obamacare came along, there were few to no high quality, affordable healthcare options for people under Medicare age that didn’t also come with some major affordability and eligibility issues for people with pre-existing conditions (which is everyone!). I could provide a lot more detail of the problems. They aren’t just “poor people” issues! How would you feel not being able to see doctors and surgeons who could save your life because the insurance coverage is so limited? That is a probable future we could face with a hacked together Republican healthcare plan. The Republicans came out today and stated that repeal of Obamacare would be one of the first items on their agenda. With no backup plan, especially for people with pre-existing conditions, many Americans face the impossibility of having no or terrible healthcare, despite having a lot of money to afford it. It’s a frightening prospect, as is their treatment of women, immigrants, trans and many other groups that also face tough consequences if these idiots win. Anyway, I really appreciate the people that have figured out what’s really going on and have taken action. Thank you. -

The bolded is EXACTLY what they are going to do, because 1) it is actually the best play they have available, and 2) they are gutless cowards, so they were going to pick that play regardless of whether it was the best play. There is only one viable strategy for the GQP to get past Trumpism.....wait for Dotard to die. Dotard will anoint Don Jr., but he doesn't have anywhere close to the juju that daddy has, and he can easily be bought off. The GQP actually CAN co-opt and control Don Jr., because he's an easily manipulated moron with a very low ceiling. That's the play. This is the essence of the GQP. This is where they have brought us. They are a terrorist movement, and should be treated as such. I hope that every one of those rifles is zeroed in, and the shooters have boxes of extra ammo on hand. Nothing will change until the Republic starts dropping GQP terrorists in their tracks. Can he cite any specific, verifiable examples? No? Then fuck off, you diaper shitting spineless fuckwad. WHATEVER. THE FUCK. HE WANTS. PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY, BITCHES. THE FASCISTS FORGED THAT SWORD. TIME TO FUCKING SHARPEN ITS BLADE AND USE IT AGAINST THEM. He should have been shot on sight. He's a terrorist. If he'd had on a turban and been yelling Allahu Akbar, he would have been shot right there. START TREATING TERRORISTS LIKE TERRORISTS. Everyone here knows that Trump and Republicans can say and do whatever they want. "We should shoot all mexicans on sight." Wouldn't even make the papers. A Democrat says "maybe Trump voters support some bad things," and it's the scandal of the century. The double-standard is insane, and the legacy media should burn to the fucking ground for creating it and indulging in it. "Will try?" The effort is already underway. The chances that the anti-MAGA part of this country is going to have to resort to force of arms to secure the election win that the voters obtained is greater than 10%. Be fucking ready for that. -

I don't know man. Is there something you think we can do before the election? Because if not, I would probably table it until 1)we confirm that Harris got more votes and 2) that the same crack team that booked a press conference at a lawn care company has come up with some plausible means overthrowing the United States government. I have a hard time worrying about that compared to the possibility that a majority of Americans might actual favor the 2024 version of Trump to a competent campaign. A coup is a few hundred people, maybe. But an election, that's a bigger deal. I think the good guys win, and win pretty comfortably. But I am still going to be nervous for the next week. -

Hermanator replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
I've been thinking about this but I think we're going to be dealing with a "legal coup". I think Harris wins. But on election night Trump will declare victory. Trump supporters in government from Trump states will refuse to certify and try to send alternate electors. The case will go to the supreme court. That's when the tipping point gets tested. If the Supreme Court is in the bag 5-4 to support a coup they will rule it constitutional and then we have what? A civil war? Harris as the rightful winner won't step aside. Trump won't step down. The court will be rightfully called into question as corrupt. It'll be a standoff. Political violence will flow. We'll lose democracy as we know it if that happens. The question is will all 5 republican aligned supreme court justices side with the coup. That's where this will come to a head. -

Let them bleed ALL the state parties dry. How many times do we have to go over this? A split GQP cannot win elections. It is a marriage made in hell. The "country club" Republicans CANNOT get enough votes to win shit without the rabid MAGAs. And the rabid MAGAs can't get enough votes to win shit without the country club Republicans. They HAVE to stay together. And the way that works in their dynamic is that one side will have to completely compromise all of its values and sell out for the sake of power...which the country club Republicans have already done. They are married. Forever and ever. -
Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet
Had Enough replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
This is some good stuff. An element of most everybody correct except a little over the top about it. It’s the YouTube effect. Everybody’s an expert now. The truth when watching live you don’t see all the action. People go off that feel, which generally most people are terrible. Then they’re terrible after they’ve reviewed the film when talking relative terms. What is reasonable and what is expected. At the disgust of Hank Hill and @HenryJames, bless his soul, I am going to reference PFF. Pressure rates on QBs vary from a bit under 20% to over 40%. You may have a few outliers on the extremes. So the very best over the course of the season are allowing pressure quite often whether that’s a missed assignment, getting beat, maybe the QB missing the read. That Willisms play Id guess doesn’t even register as a pressure. There’s no clear path to the QB. That happens all day, every day. When talking bigger picture, we are now talking that Ewers can light a defense up but needs protection. That’s true for any QB that ever played. Play makers matter. Same for any QB that ever played. For me, I’m not a traits guy. Many of you are. That’s what Ewers often is. He can sling it and he threw that no look pass once. But it’s consistency of effort that he needs. He led us to wins, a Big 12 championship. All those other bums couldn’t. To compare those environments to this one is not comparable. To compare the talent is not comparable. The experience is not comparable. Sark as OC to his predecessors. Ok. Things like OFEI/DFEI and PFF are doing work for you. They are imperfect, but they tell you things too. And in relative terms for you to compare. Here is what those things have said. Our DFEI ranks higher than OFEI in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Yet the critique of the overall defense last year is less than positive, but you can argue from that metric that our defense was every bit the reason that we won a championship. As to Ewers himself, his grades and metrics relative to his peers shows that he was barely top 20 last year, lowest of the final 4 participants. Below all the first round draft picks. This year he ranks poorly including several horrid grades. The offense last year was absolutely loaded with talent. Like never before at Texas. The NFL draft told you that. Their recruiting profiles told you that. Their combine results showed you some uniqueness. The offensive line may not have been spectacular last year or this, but it’s a very solid unit. The negativity is over the top. We’re right in the thick of it. We’ve seen the most talented team, and we know there are opportunities. But Ewers also gotten too much credit given all of the above. It doesn’t mean he hasn’t had some great throws or games. At a minimum he’s inconsistent and he hasn’t carried the team on his back at the end of games like Vince or Colt or Sam. Even Case pulled the rabbit out of the hat twice. -

SydneyCarton replied to bolverk's topic in Cloak Room
There have been plenty of polls that have had good looking crosstabs. My point is, if it was as overwhelming as YOUR GUT says it is, or at least it should be, there are no cross tab that could hide a huge gulf between reality and what the polls currently showing short of "We conducted this national poll by surveying 1,000 people in Montgomery, TX." That's the kind of nonsese it would take. Otherwise damn near every resppectable poll would have Harris up pretty comfortably. But they're not. Saying "These crosstabs" are fucked at this point isn't that much different than the people who say "Trump is winning in every poll." The reality is going to have to be born out, and we KNOW you think Harris is going to blow shit out, and maybe flip Florida, but I think it's concerning that Harris's people, at best, are cautiously optimimistic and think it's going to be close AF based on their own internals. Which brings me back to my initial thoughts; The whiplash between information is jarring, and a ton of fucking people do live in a reality of their own construction, and seem perfectly happy to strap their heads into their ostrich holes using concrete, steel rebar, and fucking adamantium. -

We're going to hear the same bullshit that we do with the NCAA tournament every year. There's absolutely no way that it's going to be chalk all the way to the finals. My guess is two of the top four don't make it. CFB is just too wild with such a degree of variance that any of these top 12 teams could win on a given day. -

We've seen some theories here that polls were going to correct toward Kamala near the end and we've seen some theories that R leaning polls were going to push a narrative of it was impossible for Kamala to win. All of the swing states that were saying Kamala had a slight lead in the NYT aggregate now say it's a tie or a Trump lead. Polling better be wrong again or we are toast. -
What? We wouldn’t play the week after the ccg. We’d play 13/14 days after a loss. Or 24/25 days after a win miss the ccg and you have 20/21 days between games. Other than bragging rights for winning the conference our first year, I’d be completely fine with missing the ccg. (especially if the only reason we weren’t there was because we lost the 4th or 5th tiebreaker after beating A&M.) It’s a superfluous money grab in the day of a 12 team playoff with way more downside risk than upside potential for a team like Texas this year. give me the 20 day break going from A&M to a home playoff game against an army-like 11 or 12 seed Make the ccg game and win, you’re getting beat up one way or another by UGA probably. The odds of getting through that game without at least one significant starter being unavailable for the CFP is virtually zero. Good news is you have 25 days to recover. Bad news is you have 25 days off and have to come out sharp against a better playoff team (8/9 or 7/10 seed). I don’t like that idea with how shitty we’ve been in the first half most of this year. Make the ccg game and lose. You get an off week before hosting a playoff game. Pro: you get to host a CFP game. con: see above re: injury odds and likely missing a key starter or two. con: If you do manage to get through the ccg without significant injury, you get to play another game and try to get through injury-free. Pro: we’re not governed by sec rules and maybe we can get a gd beer vendor or two walking the aisles. give me a victory over A&M, losing a tiebreaker to make the ccg, 3 weeks off to get fully healthy, a 6 seed and home game in the playoff against a clearly inferior 11 seed allowing us to find our rhythm and then a quarterfinal matchup against Big12/ACC champ
-
This. I was wrong on this in the lsu/a&m game thread. It seems clear from the sec hypotheticals that in the event of a 3+ team tie, a tiebreaker isn’t used unless it resolves among all teams. In the scenarios where 3+ teams finish 7-1 it’s going to come down to conference opponent winning percentage, and weirdly the Aggies could go ahead of Texas even if we just waxed them at Kyle. It’s like the OG BCS where every oddball game down the board has some meaning. We need weird things like Arkansas over Missouri and miss st to win the egg bowl. or we just need LSU and A&M to each drop another one. Cause a four way tie between Georgia, lsu, Texas abd A&M could weirdly end up with Georgia and Texas sitting out.

Nit sure about Lagway, but Arky has a running QB, and if aggy goes with Reed, he's another. But Reed is highly inconsistent. As is Taylor Green, but he's a good runner. Not to mention JQJ is a helluva RB. If we can live up to our potential, we *should* win by 17, but lets temper expectations until see how Ewers does against UF. If he can bounce back against them, I like our chances, regardless of oppoment. It may get his confidence back and we'll go from there -

Honest question - Why does the GOP have this last minute obsession with the transgender in schools subject? That seems to be the sudden focus of every political ad on TV and spam texts. I get that it’s a cheap scare tactic but the only reason I can see that they would run with this is because they think it plays well with undecided voters. Why that topic and not immigration or the economy? Is America that dumb that one party thinks the key to winning a presidential election is to convince people their children may go to school and get a sex change? Or that inmates are getting sex changes in prison and this is the thing our country needs to worry about? I mean, let’s see, we have immigration, the economy, a housing crisis, climate change, abortion, gun violence, Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Gaza, and China. But one party wants everyone to stress out over unauthorized sex changes at school. -
That was dead and buried before the aggy loss. We were going to have to go undefeated or with 1-loss to even have a prayer of being top 4 seed with our schedule. Texas had 1 Top 10 win on the resume - Wisconsin to open the season. We lost to Stanford and Minnesota, the only other teams in the committee's top 16 that we played, so 3 total matches against the committee's top 16. Nebraska, in addition to playing other highly ranked B1G teams, also played Kentucky, TCU, SMU, Creighton, Stanford and Louisville. 5 of those were in the committees top 16. Pitt, in addition to playing other highly ranked ACC teams, also played Oregon, USC and Penn State. All 3 of those are in the committee's top 16 Stanford, in addition to playing other highly ranked ACC teams, also played Minnesota, Wisconsin, Texas, Nebraska and Kentucky. 4 of those in the committee's top 16 Louisville, in addition to playing other highly ranked ACC teams, also played Wisconsin, Tennessee, Penn State, Missouri, Creighton, Kentucky, Nebraska. 4 of those in the committee's top 16. Ignoring the loss to Miami, and aggy after the committee reveal, the SEC teams did us no favors - Kentucky and Florida both are big let downs and we didn't schedule tough enough in non-conf play. The ACC has 4 teams in the top 16, the B1G has 7, fuck, even the Big 12 has 2. The SEC has 1 - us.

LSU still has defense issues. Perfect storm for aggy. And they still had to bench their superstar qb to win. Good win but far from great. Reed has issues passing if they go that way. Problem is their schedule. Can any team they play put pressure on their offense enough to beat them. South Carolina might be last team they face that can hold their offense and that’s just because of sc defensive line. They just don’t play enough good teams except us. I’m about it also, let’s fuck em up twice if we have to. Daddy’s home bitch and he’s hungry. -
The way I see it....TN is at UGA and UGA will likely win, or we have to hope. I believe Bama will lose to at LSU, a third SEC L dooms them. At OU will be no walk in the park. IU will lose 2 games, at tOSU and one other. And if not, if PSU loses to tOSU also, they would back door in to at large having not made Indy. IMO IU would be out with 2L. IU's schedule was ridiculous. BIG is not getting 4 imo in that scenario. We have to go at least 3-1 and I believe we would be at large. If Ole Miss wins out, they would have a W vs UGA and it would be Aggies and Rebels in ATL. Conference realignment has created an incredible amount of conference drama for November.

my sensei who doesn't have time to post has shared his position with me that i tend to agree with, to wit: 1. this 1st point is my addition the following, but let's assume for a second that the league is not going to let us win their trophy in our 1st year; don't argue this, just assume that even if we make the ccg we are not winning that game 2. now take out the "fix is in" position in #1; even if the fix is not in, we would be playing a top 5 team, and therefore a win is a crapshoot 3. what does this program more good right now? a league title or a playoff win? 4. if you can have 1 and not both which do you want? 5. if we lose the ccg we are guaranteed to be playing 6 or 7 days later, and possibly on the road 6. if we win out but miss the ccg we are 5th or 6th, have a bye week, and host a playoff game the point of all of this is: fix the fucking offense win the fuck out let the chips fall pig and aggy both smell blood time for sark to earn his salary same for quinn

would have loved to see LSU win that game, know a couple of people who played there....but I can't stand Kelly so fuck that guy (and it isn't like Aggie is really going to win out, it is fun to watch that coaster get higher and higher and you just know it is gonna crash.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet
PTINS replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
We would be better off taking a knee on 1st down, rather than handing off to a RB running parallel to the LOS and losing 3-4 yards. That NEVER works against OU and we did it repeatedly. Same thing w/ Georgia and Vanderbilt, with the same results. Forcing a running game with the remaining, smaller backs is Sark's biggest brain cramp. Short passes in the flats has worked well, when coupled with a downfield passing offense. When the majority of passes to the WR are in the flats, the defense collapses to the LOS and there is no place to catch and run. QE is a 3rd year starter running the same offense, with one of the best WR rooms in the country, and he is playing more like a red-shirt freshman. Scoring 6 points w/ 77 yards passing in the second half against Vanderbilt is criminal. If QE can not or will not throw to the middle of the field when it is vacated by blitzing LB and DB, the offense will stall, the defense will get worn down, and we will lose games we have no business losing. Sark doing the slow pucker from "All Gas" to "Turtling Tom Herman" is the most disappointing thing, that he thinks he can win the SEC with half the play book going unused. -
Sounds like you guys had a good time. Took my GF (huge UT girl) for both of our first trips to Nashville. Our seats were 10th row of Section R; we were behind the bench on the (left) 40. That's a tight stadium and seating - it was packed, but we'd been warned ahead of time, so made it okay. Got some pregame drinks at The Local and then walked across the street to the game. The beer/bathroom situation is a bitch with all the lines, but it was alright. Where did you see Clemens? That'd have been awesome. A quiet walk from the stadium afterward didn't really feel like a win, but luckily we escaped that place with the W. After the game, we walked down to Broadway - set up in AJ's and their bar bands were alright and playing some older country, but being hit up by the bands for tips gets old. By the time we left there, we stopped at the food trucks outside of Barstool - what a shitshow that was.. Amazing food we had at Harper's Steakhouse Friday night and then yesterday brunch at a place called Mockingbird, I'd highly recommend either for anyone headed to Nashville. The main reason I responded - talking about living in Nashville. I'm in my mid-40's, took my gf for her birthday trip. We were in BNA waiting on our flight yesterday evening, both of us were exhausted, spun out feeling and all around trying to wrap our heads around the weekend. I asked my gf, "so, what'd you think?" She responded that it was crazy, but fun. And then immediately said with a smile, "I'd definitely come back!". She'd said on Saturday, that was the first time she'd felt "at home" since moving from SA almost 20 years ago. That place is crazy, but it's a good time. It's very much like a mix of Austin and NoLa - but cleaner and safer than both. In a different world, I could see me living there as well. Looks like there's always stuff to do and overall, a really nice city. Likewise, I'll definitely go back if/when UT plays at Vandy again.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2025: Duck Around and Find Out
BurntOrange&White replied to texifornia's topic in 🤫$9.95🤫
Gerry Hamilton Monday Recruiting Thoughts Wanted to start off the off week with some general recruiting thoughts. 1. We are entering recruiting territory rarely seen in the state of Texas. Both Texas and Texas A&M are ranked in the top 10 of the polls with both having recruiting momentum, and the NIL to battle nationally. This is a first in the my years covering recruiting in Texas, and nationally. The two programs are going about recruiting different in one aspect. Texas A&M is much more aggressive trying to get 2026 prospects committed early to build momentum and capitalize on Mike Elko's very impressive start to his time in College Station. Texas A&M's victory over LSU netted three 2026 4-star commitments Sunday (two from the state of Georgia and one from California). If one doesn't expect both Texas and Texas A&M to be successful on the field and in recruiting in the NIL era, I'm not sure what to say. Both programs have quality head coaches at the same time, as well. 2. All about the close for Sarkisian and staff. There are 38 days until December 4, when the vast majority of prospects will announce final decisions with 75-80% likely to enroll in college in January. That means the first week of December will present finality for the 2025 cycle, by and large. Texas simply must add two more defensive lineman to the class. Outside of DL, Texas would like to add a cornerback, linebacker, and are chasing elite talents at Athlete (Michael Terry III), EDGE (Javion Hilson) and OT (Michael Fasusi). There also remains a higher than 50-50 chance 2026 4-star++ safety Zelus Hicks (Carrollton, Ga./High) ends up in the 2025 class. 3. On Javion Hilson (Cocoa, Fla./High). Some have asked about what would Hilson's reaction to being on an OV at Texas A&M last weekend watching the Aggies beat LSU. After spending a lot of time at Cocoa High Thursday with Hilson, and people close to him, he's not making an emotional decision. That goes for Texas or Texas A&M. He's a laser football focused prospect. If he sees himself being successful at Texas more than anywhere else, he will be a Longhorn. If he envisions himself developing into a Nic Scourton under Mike Elko's staff, then you could have a different answer. But he will not make a singular game emotional decision. 4. What does Texas and Texas A&M both being very good at the same time do to Oklahoma? The Sooners have their on field issues this season, but will now be facing a much different state of Texas in recruiting. Texas and Texas A&M are very likely going to play a meaningful game November 30. The stands in College Station will be littered with top 2026 and 2027 prospects. Factor in LSU being a quality team too, and recruiting in the state of Texas maybe the toughest for Oklahoma in a long time. That places a lot of pressure on the Sooners nationally, and more than normal. 5. Members of the Texas staff are expected to be on the road recruiting later in the week - in some capacity. With the accelerated recruiting calendar with December 4 being decision day for most (two weeks earlier vs. past years), the off week school visits are more important and impactful. It's going to be a mad dash for coaching staffs the next five weeks. In closing, Texas has a top 5 level class. They are two recruiting wins (Hilson and Terry III) from a top 4 class. And they are still 2-3 flips away from a potential top two class, with three being most likely. Get used to seeing both Texas and Texas A&M fighting for top 5 classes for the reasons listed above. -

Reynolds Woodcock replied to Coach pop a bitch's topic in Football
We should just sticky this and lock the thread. It’s frustrating, because he’ll have a game like 23 Alabama or 24 Michigan where it seems like the light switch flips all the way on and he’s finally taken the next step to a game changing, elite QB. But the quarterback we saw at Vandy is by and large what we’re going to get, with a few outlier games like Michigan (tremendous) and Georgia (putrid). That’s enough to beat most teams, but probably not good enough to win it all.
