So this is going to be a long post, but a few thoughts about Sark, this staff, position groups, game performance, and Arky. Sark:  I think we hit a home run hire.  I was drunk on the Meyer bandwa

I missed this live, but Joe Cook pointed this out in his gif breakdown. We tried to catch them with some tricky shit in the 2Q.  All the skill players stood upright like they were at the play-cal

Per a poster on IT, Bijan and Roschon are both far from 100% and Keilan Robinson is out right now due to Covid protocol, so Jonathan Brooks has been getting the first team reps at RB. Sounds like Roschon might be available Saturday but Bijan is probably out.

Fun. 

Raging at the info, not you.

Bijan is out for sure.

 

Roschon is battling turf toe

Josh fuckin' nails it: 

 "What can I do for the team"  vs  "What can TEXAS do for me"

Too many "Brand" focused players -- not enough "Ball" focused players

 

That's exactly it. The culture is bad and Davis yelling to fucking portal means that staff knows they need to get quite a few guys to go to turn it around. 

Sark may not seem like the best of HC but I believe in this staff moreso than any of Charlie or Herman's staffs. These are guys that have coached on title teams. Guys who have evaluated and recruited top talent who have heart and love the game and not just measurables. I believe they can turn it around and lay a winning foundation but it will take a lot of time. 

This isn't basketball where you only need 7-10 dudes to go from shit to great. There's 44 dudes on just the two deep alone so much more complicated to get turned around. The best thing we can do is show patience. 

We've been wandering the desert for 11 years. Instead of wandering 11 more let's commit to giving Sark and Co they time they need to get this built. Not changing coaches every few years and not publicly cutting the coach down and killing his recruiting ability. That's the only chance we have to get this turned around.

This should be required reading. You should post it in the Bo Davis thread if hit haven't already.

That middle stanza gets me. Mr. Davis doesn't recognize a distinction between himself and Texas Football. It wasn't the DL or his defense as a whole. It was the entirety of Texas Football that utterly failed in public. It doesn't matter which player or unit was more responsible than another. The program was embarrassed, and at least for one night, by extension he was humiliated. 

When practice starts, put it behind you. Leaders lead, and practice is when you fix the problems. Don't let the loss hang. But that night on the bus out, nothing was funny. Anyone associated with the program should hate losing. Losses happen, but they should make you angry and determined to do better.

This only works once. People born round don't die square.

Just to complete the list:

Darrell Royal 6-3-1 (Includes wins over #10, #13 and #17)

Fred Akers 9-0 (Includes wins over #2, #8 and #14)

David McWilliams 5-4 (Includes win over #15)

John Mackovic 6-3 (Includes wins over #16)

Mack Brown 7-2 (Includes win over #7)

These guys all sucked worse than McWilliams and he inherited roster with only two players worth mentioning and was playing SWC teams with rosters full of paid players. Sad state of affairs.

  • Sark knows who leaked the video. He and the leadership council agreed to remove the player from the team. The player wasn't someone who was a contributor. 
  • Bijan and Roschon both practiced Thursday. Both want to play but will be game time decisions. Overshown is also a game time decision.
  • A bunch of non info about the QB's. At the request of Charles Thompson he Included a quote about how the players don't think Thompson is to blame for the struggles the last 4 games.
  • The rest is about the new practice facility being discussed. Apparently McCombs could move to where Dobie 21 currently is. If that happens, the social work school, which is located just south of the stadium will move to where McCombs currently is and allow them to build a practice facility right next to the stadium.

That’s a good solution. Then what goes where the practice bubble is? Dobie?

  • Dobie rumored to house new McCombs Business School...
  • Social Work school moves to Bldg currently holding the McCombs Biz School

I hope that means they demo Dobie and rebuild something.  GSB isn't a super-fancy building, but it's light-years ahead of Dobie, and despite being named for a car salesman, McCombs is sufficiently prestigious to require a better building.
