Great coach. I don't care for him personally but he is definitely one of the best coaches ever. -

Great coach. Gave me a lot of great childhood memories and seems like an honestly good person. Sad day. -
Agree and well said. I’d feel the same about Ohio State if it weren’t for the fact that the Buckeyes lost even more talent than the Horns on both sides of the ball and also have 2 new coordinators plus a new OL coach. That’s a lot of change in one spring for the Buckeyes. Home field certainly works in their favor but Sark has proven he knows how to win big games on the road early in the season. Hard to believe it’s less than 4 months till kickoff. I hope all preseason polls going into game 1 have Ohio State #1 and Texas at #2 or #3. This season could have the feel of 2005 if we beat Ohio State to start the year.

Great post/thread! It's fun to digest thoughts. Before making a true comparison, it seems fair to say that - last year - the team was a good kicker OR a healthy Baxter away from likely being in the championship game (either because we have another play option on the goal line against Ohio State, or we're not facing them until the finals because we win the SEC Championship game). I'm not trying to re-litigate last year, but that very well would have been the scenario for the 2024 team with all the other compliments (including Quinn at QB). Even with all the talent, it's going to be tough for a team with a lot of turnover to win game 1 at Ohio State. I believe, if we stay healthy, by the Florida game this 2025 team WILL show it is a talented group. While excited about the new pieces (TE, WR, etc.), last year's team was talented enough to win the national title and overall with deeper experience at a number of positions relative to 2025. Schedule in 2025 remains favorable and I believe they have will show they have the talent to get to the championship, but I don't think we know until after the Florida game what this team will be capable of in 2025. The pieces are there.

Will be interesting to see what Sark does with the starting slot WR this season. Emmett Mosely was impressive in the slot as a freshman at Stanford. Precise route runner, excellent body control, strong hands, good ability to separate, became a legit weapon in the redzone during final 3 games against Cal, #19 Louisville and SJSU, averaging 110 yards per game and scored 5 TDs in those 3 games. Similar to Golden, he improved significantly as season wore on. Curious what @Bobby Burton @Gerry Hamiltonor others think. Will Mosely play primarily at slot and Deandre Moore move outside or vice versa? Moore struggled with consistency last season. In 6 of his final 7 games last year, Moore totaled 90 combined receiving yards and 1 TD for an average of 15 yards per game. The one solid performance during the second half of the season, he showed up big time in the SEC championship when Moore scored a TD and had 9 catches for 114yds. Other than that second Georgia game, Deandre didn’t do much since late Oct. We need better consistency if the offense is going to thrive.

While he annoys the hell out of me, I have to say that he's one of the five best coaches in my lifetime in any sport. -

Wow. End of an era. -
Pop announced he stepping down as HC of the Spurs and will focus on being President of Basketball Operations which he is currently in addition to HC. Will miss his presence on the court.

Yesterday might have been a good lesson for the team. Let's hope they wear their hitting shoes and get the bats going and the Luke has a good game too.🤘
