It’s stinger like a bee‘s stinger. As in, “how we can hurt you.” Sark doesn’t want Arch to lose his stinger—his warrior-like mentality. For the offense, that stinger is up for debate. We likely view that differently from Sark. For Sark, I think it’s hunting explosives. I’d love for it to be slants, quick throws, bubble screens, wheel routes, outside zone. Getting the ball out of Arch’s hand fast.

What is the causal effect of a player having a stinger during a play in football? A Stinger is a quick intense pain. Now, tell me how “Bread and Butter” football is a Stinger? Come on guys, you’re killing me! A stinger would be what Sark is known for…the big play! Which, Sark said his Oline can’t block worth a flip so therefore they have no Stinger play ability!

1) A stinger is an attitude of aggression and purposeful infliction of harm 2) Texas doesn’t have one. EDIT- if I had to choose one, it’s Arch designed runs that open up medium-deep routes.

Hopefully they lose the stinker lol

The fact that our offensive guru HC/OC talks about the stinger and no one knows what the hell he’s talking about is very telling.

Post of the day

Stinger = a threat that can effectively hurt the other team. A deterrent primarily, but also available to use as a kill shot when executed effectively.

Stinger is balls or guts. He knows his offense is waning in confidence so he’s trying to conjure up “eff it, show them who you are”. From arch chip to stingers to we don’t listen to the outside(while addressing the outside) is a diminuendo rallying cry. He keeps trying to fire them up when he needs to fundamental them up. No amount of gippering will save this team. I can’t help but think his outside life is impacting him. He just hasn’t been the same since last summer. I hope is personal world is good first and foremost. He knows football extremely well and I’m at a loss as to why he hasn’t done what’s necessary. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤘🏽

The fact that Skip Johnson won a natty at one of the few schools that prioritizes softball over baseball moves him into the top three for me. I give him the nod over Schloss for that accomplishment alone. Doing more with less.

It's the off-schedule playmaking. He doesn't want the offense to lose the ability to challenge a defense vertically when things break down either through Arch's legs or the deep ball. I'm fine with that if we had coupled it to power spread scheme almost identical to what MSST was running before Kamario got hurt. Unfortunately, we don't do that and far too often have two guys in deep routes out of 12 personnel while the interior gets mauled or a free rusher blast through on max protect. Is what it is.

1. Probably the deep ball and running game for Sark. 2. 3 and outs

Cool but you'll need to lock comments before the pronunciation debate gets out of hand!

With the resources that Texas has, it should at the very least be in the top 25 if not the top 10 of oline's in college football. To not even be in the top 50 is beyond pathetic.

I’ll be there with my Shiner Bock and ready to yell about ou sucks. Nothing beats this Christmas tradition with the crew.

Just want to let everyone know that we have a new local sponsor. It's Berdoll Pecans. OTF members can get 10pct off all orders for pecans, candies fudge, beef jerky, etc., when they use the promo code OTF at checkout. I've been going to Berdoll for 30+ years and can speak to the quality. It's a gift I get my parents and in-laws every year (and I get some for myself, too). Website is http://www.berdoll.com So if you want a little taste of Austin, use promo code OTF10 and get 10% off at Berdoll.

Even if we make the playoffs...Flood has to go....We have a historically bad O line.

I agree. It will be interesting because he will have to change his tune about the OC role and let go of his buddy Kyle Flood. I understand the loyalty aspect, but there’s a line. OC is interesting because will he do it out of force or because he had a revelation? If it’s the former, it will be hard as a head coach to be successful.

What a joke

Would any one really trade Schloss for Skip Johnson? I like Skip fine but even with the national championship I wouldn't trade places.

If we go 8-4 he will make changes (including hiring a new play caller). You have nothing to worry about there. 9-3 and missing playoffs will probably force him to make changes as well.

Terrible. Just terrible. lol

My original comment was related to him going 8-4 AND refusing to make changes. Do you think donors of the largest NIL collective in the nation would be ok with him running it back a 3rd straight year with no changes? Big programs like Oregon and OU have already fired their OC for underachieving.

Yes haha

No need to follow for Texas. Not at this time.

Did he mean "stinker"? In seriousness, probably the deep post and seam routes. Don't know of anything else that would be considered effective against the defense so far.
