Hey I saw a slant across the middle of the field. That's cool.

Exactly 💯 The middle of the field has been abandoned. I don’t think there's been a TE target in the last 4 games either. The wheel route to the RB is not being used either (Jaydon Blue) ran it perfectly.

Time to make up for yesterday…

Baker was probably a better OT than guard. Sikorski is ok; Basically about the level of Hutson at guard. Robertson is a real problem.

@Jeff Howe so kindly shared this one with the OTF group chat.

We've been doing this each week following CFB Saturday. Put topical tweets from the game, or Texas football in general, in here. No profanity please.

Best men's college basketball offseason moves "Best overall offseason Texas Sean Miller treated the offseason like Black Friday. Just when it seemed he was done shopping, he found another deal he couldn't resist. In July, Marcus Spears Jr., the former No. 1 player in the 2027 recruiting class, announced that he was reclassifying up a year and would join the Longhorns, a team that had already made itself a contender over the early summer. That plan started with the return of Matas Vokietaitis, who averaged 16 points and nearly 54.5% shooting from the field during UT's Sweet 16 run. Colorado's Isaiah Johnson and TCU's David Punch were two of the most coveted transfers in the country. Miller signed them. He also got Austin Goosby, a five-star recruit and another anchor of this team's No. 4 ranked recruiting class. The Longhorns look like national title contenders months after losing Dailyn Swain, a first-round pick in this summer's NBA draft." https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/50160306/mens-college-basketball-best-worst-offseason-moves-2026-2027 Yahoo Sports: WINNER: TEXAS........ https://sports.yahoo.com/mens-college-basketball/article/college-basketball-transfer-portal-winners-and-losers-florida-on-the-rise-kansas-in-precarious-situation-170305632.html CBS sports: Winner: Sean Miller loading up for Year 2 at Texas https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/2026-college-basketball-transfer-portal-winners-losers/

I definitely feel this could be the beginning of the end of the Sark era for us. It might be in a couple years that he moves on but his ego, stubbornness, and loyalties keeps him from ever being an elite coach. He's a good head coach when it comes to recruiting/branding side of the job but when it comes to the football itself, he's been failing for awhile now because there is no accountability for the core of the offensive coaches. Flood, Milwee, and Sark as the playcaller would have been let go by now by the top coaches purely on performance. Outside of the the tackle position (1 first rounder, 1 second rounder), Flood has been terrible developing and recruiting the center and guard position. Jake Majors was our only decent center and he was from the Herman/Hand era. Cruz was a disaster and we've yet to see Christian. Connor, Campbell, Hutson, Robertson, Kibble, and Stroh have all been bad at protection and just average at run blocking. Nick Brooks transferred. That's a horrible track record for 6 years. Only 2 of those years our OL has not been on of the biggest weaknesses of the team. Milwee's biggest strength is recruiting but Quinn and Arch have had flaws from the get go that never improved. Quinn had bad footwork from day 1 to the day he left. Arch's decision making is arguably worse now than he was as a freshman. It's crazy how limited Sark's playbook is right now with Arch. At least with Quinn, he was very good at running Sark's pre-snap eye candy. Arch can't even do that right now. So you have to question, did they recruit the right QBs for their system? Or are they just inept at building up and developing QBs? Whichever way, it's been a failure as a coach. So the question is why is someone like PK that for the most part produced quality defenses fired before guys like this. My guess is they are "yes" men Sark likes to have around or they are his buddies (include Jeff Banks in that). At some point every head coach has to protect himself by scapegoating his assistants. I think we're getting close to that when it comes to these guys, but ultimately it will be Sark's demise as long as he is the playcaller too. Chesney and Stein are showing you what you can do with even limited talent when you're team has an identity and are discipline.

Don’t disagree. And I get that there are exceptions to the blue chips rankings in both directions. But it is proven over and over again that highly ranked high four and five star players pan out more than lower ranked recruits and Flood ain’t signing them.

The Sunday Scaries came early this week.

Yikes. That’s a rough one.

Agreed. It's gotta be coaching. I'm not confident if you put 2026 Arch in the same spots in 2024 he looks half as good. That's a tragedy from a development perspective.

Definitely a part of it. Terrible (as a whole) and will only get worse

“BOOM!!!” every time Texas lands a recruit. OTF spends all offseason hyping every commitment, praising every evaluation, and selling fans on a loaded roster. Six years in, where’s the production? You can’t pump sunshine year-round and then act surprised when fans expect the results you’ve been selling.

Charting his passes this week is going to be interesting.

This is SAD, but possibly true.

Yep!

Incredible. has to be sark. But Milwee needs to be held accountable.

Facts, gonna change the slogan to blocking humans. Like we need some that can

Sark

Watching Arch highlights from 2024 and it's a legitimately different player. Mechanics, execution, confidence, etc. What happened? Did the pressure break him and/or is this an indictment on Sark? Worth a watch. It's staggering - https://youtu.be/eMxDPBsVouA?si=5dYH9zf3rieEGfS8

Frankly, Baker isn’t very good. Way over ranked. Weak and slow footed.

No - you don’t get it. It was more about you repeating the same post 25x
