We've lost 8 of our last 11

[TexArcher 36943]

Is this the worst it's ever been?

I understand that Sark almost beat Bama.  And he almost beat top 10 ou last year.  But they were still losses.

Is that really evidence of improvement?  Almost wins against better teams?  Strong beat top 10 Notre Dame and Herman almost beat top 10 LSU.  But they played down to a bunch of other teams and lost, just like we're doing now.

3 and fucking 8 in our last 11.

Are we really any better than we were 2 years ago, 4 years ago, 6 years ago?

Losses are losses and this team looked like complete dogshit today. 

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1548]

and 2 of the wins were ULM , UTSA and what was the other?

teams win close games when they get clutch stops.  Texas doesn't do that in close games.

Sark is 2-2. He’s dogshit

Recruiting is great though.  I am sure that will turn this shit around.

I think we're learning that coaching is more important than recruiting.

[ztejas 42750]

It's bad. We need a program/culture changer. Sark ain't it.

Recruiting likely won't survive with another mediocre or bad year. Even with NIL.

That's why if this is another bad season you just do the inevitable. Fire Sark.

Define bad season to get rid of a second year coach.

3-9?

4-8?

5-7?

6-6?

Talent wise, we are better. Coaching wise, it's the same soft serve shit. I just don't understand how none of these guys can figure that every team we play is going to give us their best 60 minutes. Yet we routinely act like it's beneath us and fart around for the first 20-30 minutes before deciding it's time to play.  Today's game is a perfect example of what happens when you don't match the opponents intensity. 

[Neonmoon 38126]

Texas hasn’t shown intensity in 15 years

We have in flashes. We popped Georgia in the face to cap off our sole 10 win season. We drilled OUs ass in 2013 and 2015. We beat Bama’s ass with Hudson fucking Card, if it wasn’t for the refs spotting Bama 2 points.

Is he worse than strong? That’s really hard to fathom. I thought there was no way we could go that low again.

Just when my hopes get hyped up again after saying I would never let that happen again after years of being let down.  Then today happens and if I wasn’t depressed enough you had to point that out, thanks….   Lol. 

[Rickylovesweed 14077]

Strong was 11-14 in his first 2 years and then the inevitable happened in year 3. 

Same thing will happen with Sark if his record is similar.

His record will be worse at this rate.

If it's anywhere close to the same record as Strong.....he should be fired. 

Or it's another year 3 of a lame duck coach that has to do something special to keep his job.

Shoulda kept herman. Fuck it

This season is now officially trending the wrong way again.  The signs were there vs UTSA.

we all knew this would be the same shit team if Card was the quarterback but somehow now we're surprised. lol

[jinx 2635]

But Card doesn’t play on this soft as shit defense.

Tech is bad and with their 2nd string QB.

No reason Texas should lose this game even with Card.

I think the only thing that MIGHT get him fired is 5-7 or worse.

Even then, I'm not so sure.

This. Apparently our 2nd QB can be absolute dogshit and it’s not his fault but Tech or OU can put in anybody. 

[jinx 2635]

Oh, I am certain our dumb ass administration will keep him around after a losing season. I thought the question was when we SHOULD fire him. 

[Fastbreak 3888]

Herman was 8-3 in his last 11…

most of the time the QB is mobile and makes plays with his feet.  Sark doesn't want his QB to run.  A mobile QB covers a lot of ills.  our guy has to be Dan Marino.

Herman was the floor of what I would expect from a Texas head coach and he's fucking Knute Rockne compared to Chuck and Seven Loss.

[Fastbreak 3888]

In the last 11, we have ONE win against a P5 team.

Kansas has THREE, including us…

Thinking if he has another losing season this year, the hole will be too deep to climb out of.

I never ever thought Texas, with all its resources and history, would struggle for so many years. It’s so frustrating.

Absolutely.  We were killers in multiple years in the early 80s.  A fucked up situation with a punt away from a NC.  In the 90S we won MULTIPLE conference championships etc.  This last 12 years have been total wandering in the wilderness dogshit.  This is multiple times worse than those two decades.

I was on campus those years and the last 13 years or so have been way worse.  I truly believe the program is cursed.  We find strange ways to lose games and it doesn’t matter who the coach has been.  

[Eskimohorn 5552]

5 conference titles (4 for real) during that era. We’ve had 2 in 22, and that includes a dominant decade with a title.
