No.

Well except me wasn’t up. That’s always a significant thing. You never know if you will.


1,000 posts since I last checked 10 hours ago. With bo REAL news.

Never change Surly.

Not true. A former player, or somebody who may or may not have family ties and is friends with former NFL/Longhorn players, named Injury Prone stepped in about 1:30 and called his shot. Said it was done. hornfromdallas jumped all over it.

My cousin told us that he was heading to the airport to talk to a rampie buddy & see if there was any news, then ended up radio silent for the rest of the night. Turns out he didn’t make it past the landing strip. He reports that there was no sign of Urban in the club however the prevailing opinion there is that Urban is in the bag and will be announced at the latest Monday morning  

If this stretches to Monday morning, without news, we're proper fucked.

Right now, no news is good news. That state of affairs will remain until about 4 or 5 pm tomorrow, by which time if we haven’t heard Herman is out, I’m going to start getting worried. No news by Monday and we’re screwed. 

I can't see any way that the news doesn't hit on Sunday if Urban is the man. If Herman hangs on through the weekend -- and Urban isn't announced, then he's said no and we don't have Plan B enacted.

The “silence is good” crowd is missing the point where UM hates Herman. So the longer it plays out , the worse it is for Herman. So , according to our resident sales expert up above, silence is a good thing, meaning he’s still in play. However, I think sales guy is discounting the fact that the longer UM let’s Herman and co swing in the wind, the more it’s  a twist of the knife. He may have no desire to come to TX, but the longer he strings it along , the more our program suffers. 

Except that it's in Urban's best interest to have this announced ASAP after Herman is officially out due to the timeline with ESD.

So there isn't really a feasible way we get the news today is there? Firing coach a day before the game is not a good look. I think if it's a done deal we know immediately after the Saturday game or as soon as the KS game is cancelled 

Not today. The earliest news we get will be post-game tomorrow and that will be Herman being let go. The lid might be hard keep on Urban agreeing but nothing official until Saturday night/Sunday morning. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

The best part was how he got up on his high horse, told you how he's a better fan than you, then told you to get off your high horse. I don't think he knows what that phrase means. 

Or nuance.

@immamac can you make a thread and sticky the cookie thing that way it's easier to reference. Surly is being slow af and double posting same responses.

It means I am an actual fan not living in the fantasy world some of you are.

I want us to play every game and win. Fuck any of you if you wish we would lose to fire a coach in any sport.

At this point I hope Herman comes back next year to just piss all of you off.

You’d rather have a shitty coach over urban for your team just to piss of some internet posters you don’t know? What the fuck is wrong with you?

He's going to be fired so what's your fucking point? You'd rather be right than have one of the best coaches outside of Nick/Dabo?

If you want us to play every game and win you can't possibly want Herman to come back.

[Gut Wagon 8,079]

If Herman were still a candidate to be here in 2021 by winning, I'd much prefer losing to however many Kansas-based opponents are left on our schedule. He's that bad for our future. But he's apparently toast regardless, so I guess we might as well win out. Or whatever.

A lot of things, obviously.

This guy and I have gone round and round for years regarding how shitty Herman is as a head coach. He has always insisted he is a good coach and defended him stating anyone that is critical of Herman isn't really a fan.

He painted his own dumbass into a corner and his only option at this point is to run his brush of stupid shit over himself. Gotta stand your ground when you've been stupid for so long.

The bed of shit he is lying in, he made it.

So he was like me with Charlie prior to the Kansas game? Does steamboat need a kansas game to wake him up?

Burton

Despite reports out of Columbus from Kirk Barton, a former player of Urban Meyer, that Meyer is not taking the Texas head coaching position, I have no new reliable news on the Urban Meyer front as it relates to Texas as of 6:50 this morning.

The last I have heard from an unimpeachable Texas source is what I shared with the board yesterday afternoon. “It is all up to Urban at this point,” is the last text I have received on the matter.

It should be noted that unlike from the Texas point of view, I do not have an unimpeachable source from the Meyer camp.

I need to share that point with the community here. I am likely to be made aware of any decision that is communicated to Texas and will share it here as soon as I get it. 

How any news will become official or public is out of any person’s control, except perhaps Meyer himself.

So we wait.

The Landing Strip.... 

True story, back in my pro drinking days, I came into town for a game and was picked up at the airport by a buddy, who happens to post on Surly. I may or may not have already had multiple drinks prior to landing. He and I went to the Landing Strip where I definitely proceeded to consume multiple double Jameson shots neat. About 45 minutes later we confirmed that there wasn't a single dance either of us would fuck for free much less buy a dance from.

Later that year Mack Brown was fired.

You draw what conclusion you will from that story. I will let my friend decide if he wants to dox himself or not.

I wasn't there, was I?  

But, since your endeavors clearly got Mack Brown fired, I think you must repeat it.  Just to be sure Herman goes.  Sacrifice yourself for the greater good.

The Kansas game didn’t wake me up to the knowledge that Charlie was never going to work at Texas. I just didn’t think we’d lose to mother-fucking Kansas. I thought we’d beat Kansas, but then lose to TCU, and then maybe the administration would have the balls to fire Charlie.

This dumbass better hope Urban actually turns the job down despite not actually giving him any info, or he's going to face a relentless assault of ridicule in addition to being out 500 bucks.

True, we began to see it at the beginning of the season. The Kansas game was just the funeral.

[Mikey4 2,476]

He wasn't asked if he was coming to Austin to fix the team, they were all asked to name their favorite college town, and then he was asked was he going to pick Austin.

Wrong again.

"On the pregame show on Saturday morning, it appears Meyer teased the fan base about the whole scenario. In a discussion about the best college towns, Matt Leinart brought up Austin, Texas. Brady Quinn then asked Meyer if that was the next town he was going to fix. Meaning the football team that plays in Austin, the Texas Longhorns."
