College coaching carousel 2025: It's going to be wild
pinkman_90 replied to Gerry Hamilton's topic in On Texas Football Forum
Way more. In fact, there couldn’t be a coach who brought on the “more” more than Lane train. -
We didn't just beat OU, we dominated them. Then we dominated A&M in the final 30 mins 24-7, a team that many were arguing is #1 going into the game. I never thought A&M was better than #3 but the reality is we beat 3 teams who were all ranked top 10 at the time we played them. No-one has won 3 top 10 games in past 5 years. Committee putting way too much emphasis on 2 losses to teams ranked #1 and #3 in country. At most, those both should count as .5 compared to losses by Miami (2 unranked teams). Need to put much more emphasis on great wins.

This is ridiculous lol. If we needed to hire a coach this cycle, who would you want for us? -
Derrek Cooper and Jermaine Bishop Jr.

@Gerry Hamilton is Bishop really less than 160lbs right now? Or was that just his listed weight when he committed several months ago? He looks like he’s put on 15+ pounds his senior year -

Any chance Bishop will be selling popcorn during the Spring game? -

Disagree. It would diminish their biggest win of the year (against Georgia) if they lose in the SEC championship. Bama lost to OU, Texas beat OU. Both would have 3 losses. Bama played a cupcake non-conf schedule (no opponents in the Top 25). Texas played #1 team in the country closer than any other opponent all year. Texas beat 3 teams currently in the Top 15. Bama beat 2 teams in the Top 15 (Georgia and Vanderbilt). Committee left out Georgia 2 years ago after they lost to Bama in the Conf Championship and Georgia was undefeated going into the Conf Championship game. We need to stop pretending you can't drop out of the playoffs due to conf championship loss. It's already happened multiple times in the past and should happen this year, especially if it's BYU and Bama who are both losing. Predicting this second year of the 12 team playoffs with really good teams getting left out is going to lead to Big 10 getting their way with 24 Team Playoff System. Top 4 teams from each of the Power 4 Conferences getting in automatically then at large for all other spots. Predicting that would lead to elimination of conf championship games. Top 2 teams from each conference get in (based on conf record) then team #3 plays #6 and #4 plays #5 to win the final 2 spots in each conf AQ. Now you've filled 16 spots then it leaves Committee Rankings to select the final 8 spots (get rid of the rule that benefits 5th conf champion, regardless of ranging) to fill out the Top 24. In that scenario, Texas likely hosting a home game for round 1. Top 8 teams all get a bye in round 1. By the week of Dec 20th, were down to 16 teams playing at the home sites of the Top 8 teams. That's a model I could get fired up about. For teams like Texas, who are beginning to peak at end of season, it would give us the chance to prove it on the field in December rather than punishing us for loss against OSU in week 1 (when 4 of the top 5 teams in rankings didn't play a single ranked opponent in non-conf). jmho. Hook em!! -

Lane dealing with the LSU media will be entertaining at least -

If the CFP a reward for the season or a matchup of the teams playing best at the end of a season? Right they look at win/loss records and not how a team is playing. -

John F. replied to James Bianchetta's topic in On Texas Football Forum
This is true. Committee has said as much too. But one interesting scenario would be if there’s something to the DeBoer to Penn St rumors. The committee has also said they’d consider availability of players and coaches so if he bolts, especially after losing badly to Georgia in the championship game, who knows -

Exciting to see how they both are finishing with insane performances during playoffs and imagine what they will bring to the 40 acres. -
