I'm all in on this squid character. Upon Urb's hire would celebratory calamari be appropriate or horribly gauche? 

 

Go with squid ink pasta instead.

Sounding like KU & Texas actually have every intention of playing next weekend. If that’s the case there really shouldn’t be any news for another week right? Pretty clear Herman’s finishing out the year at this point.

Not the best in these towns, but a few places that I've enjoyed...

A few in DFW

• Joe T Garcia's
• Javier’s
• Blue Goose
• Manny's 
• Mi Cocina

A few in SA 

• Acenar on The Riverwalk 
• El Mirasol for margarita's 
• Mi Tierra's
• El Jarro's.
• La Fogata
• El Chaparral's  (Helotes)

La Fogata in San Antonio is the bomb though.

Might just be me but Sanders signing and enrolling early could be an indication of where things stand...why would you sign and enroll early if you had no idea if your position coach, head coach and DC were going to be there next year? Me thinks Urban's onboard & CDC relayed that to recruits and now we're just waiting on the news to break. That's just the eternal optimist in me.

He may just really really hate the process and love what Texas has to offer outside of football. But for a dude who was on decommit watch the past couple of months.. I chose to believe Urban's onboard. 

[RGBIII 22,798]

Also since this is a catch all thread...watch Sanders catch all here

El Arroyo was never awesome. Just OK. At no point did I eat a meal there and said that was really good. I started eating there in the 90s.  Drinks and apps only place.

Ok luck was drunk speak but at the same time is he a proven upgrade that we need to spend money buying out Herman and an entire staff for? No one wants Herman gone more than me but Franklin doesn’t move the needle in the a absolute slightest especially compared to the other cristobals/campbells/fickells of the world. He’s just not it

Maybe I’m an idiot but at no time in the last 6 years did I ever say- damn- if only we had franklin coaching here.

Just had to look up different scotches to remember one of my favorites, Glenfarclas.

Enjoyed a few of those at Nates Seafood in Addison.

Glenfarclas 25 is the best thing in the average upscale American liquor store.  Better than any of them costing many hundreds more. And the 12, which you can get for only about $45, is better than 95% of the other bottles in that store.

he sounds smart.  He's picking a school mainly(whether for business or emotional reasons) and a coach second.

that said, CDC is not going to tell a recruit about Urban.

Fully agreed. I’m not a Franklin guy, I think he is a marginal at best hire if we went with him over Herman. Prob in the same situation right now

Here's my best attempt at squid's latest. Does feel like a timeline of a trip this week. Doesn't feel super informative on our situation, even considering my gaps in interpretation here.

- squid = him
- home of music? Austin?
- Flight
️ - Played golf
- drank
- definitely rose bowl
- hook'em, maybe with ut people?
- drove to the mountains and ate
- drove to Vegas
- I've got nothing here
- Cesar's palace, maybe?
- ate and drank till he's sick
- feels like maybe random Vegas shenanigans? Cards, drinks, food, girls, money, and a hospital? I don't know.
- he flies back to the home of music, presumably Austin.

[Hmbre97 6,297]

Yeah, if Herman is still the coach come Monday presser time, it ain't happening. Kansas gamne don't make a shit at this point. If we move to a plan B or C that isn't as flashy, they'll wait until after the "season" is over to do it. I think Meyer would be the only one able to move the needle i.e. the first early signing day.

Yep, today did feel like a danger zone so I’m happy to make it through with everything all quiet. Would have been nice if some $9.95ers had been hinting that they liked the direction things were trending or something like that but genuinely nobody seems to know anything.

Yes, clearly different seats, along with a number of other changes. All renovations post-2015 purchase - you can swap out seats. As said, the bones are the same, including the seat configuration. Not to mention there aren't a ton of F 50s out there flying around (they were also discontinued over 10 years ago), particularly those registered to TX owners.

In fact, there's a single F50 (of any year) registered to an Austin owner. This one. 

I don’t know what your job is, but you may end up with some offers for a different line of work after this is all said and done.
