Poor Quinn 😞

I'm not sure we can say that. The model produced back to back semi final appearances. 10 games in with a first year starting QB and now we need to change everything. I'm not there

It's the portal era, though. Throwing away a season with an inexperienced QB and OL is mismanagement. As Gerry often says there is no longer an excuse for being young.

I'm a massive fan of Sark as a pre-portal/NIL coach. But I think his model is outdated and isn't going to win championships going forward. Roster management in the portal era is a full time job. Coordinating an offense and staying at the top of the game is a full time job. Being a head coach is a full time job. Sark isn't Superman and can't do all of these at an elite level. As long as he tries we will be second place to the programs that do a better job of delegating responsibility.

I do think changes need to be made, and I’m hopeful Sark makes the right calls whatever they may be. But thinking this was a natty contender team with a virtually brand new line and a new starting QB seems naive in hindsight. I remember in the offseason a good chunk of the community (and I’m pretty sure Bobby explicitly said it too) talking about 2026 really being the year. I think a lot of the negativity right now isn’t necessarily warranted and should be save for if we don’t look any better next year.

This is getting real sad. Sark has flipped this program on it's head but that's still not good enough. Decade of nothing but what we have now, is still not enough.

Bobby any additional news and timeline

This will be what happens.

😂 I want it to be so believe me. But the track record shows that this guy can't do all three of these jobs at the level we need.

The God-King Sark is leading us down the narrow path to Victory!

Dan Mullen is a good idea honestly. I didn't even think of that. I would totally do Dan Mullen combined with someone running a professional style personnel department. HC being in charge of both is a bad model.

Quick destination decisions are what a transfer is. It's expedited recruiting in a short window. January and May both have issues. May at least gives schools and coaches in the playoffs the ability to manage rosters properly. Not worried about the athlete having the time to learn scheme compared to the issues coaches and schools are having. They get paid to figure it out.

The problem with that is if it opens in may , your gonna have guys that have to make quick destination decisions and on top of that, does it really benefit a player to come in and have to learn a scheme within 2-3 months?

I agree. I personally think the portal needs to be May only. The window between finals time and summer camps. That would make the athletes complete the academic year, the athletes would have a better idea of roster positioning, and it gives some relief to the playoff teams you mention.

horns are 11-1 vs. sec teams not named geo since we joined. 0-3 vs. geo. we have a geo problem. luckily they're not on our schedule next few years. geo has a bama problem. oh. st has mich problem. it happens. replace a few lineman rb a couple on D and we're back yo. u guys really want dan mullen. hes comin if steve is gone. grass isn't greener on the other side

I am not sure what coach our “fans” think is going to come in and meet all the expectations of all the “fans”? Does Sark need to continue to grow and adapt to the changing landscape of college football? Yes, of course. I think he will. The question is will whatever Sark does satisfy all the “fans” ? Of course it will not. But remember that Sark is not going anywhere next season. Continue to voice your concerns but remember what the program was when he came onboard.

There was a post 3 minutes after his scheduled announcement time and video on YouTube.. Edit: whatever the positive news is timetable changed, not on the OTF staff

I was there and whole heartedly agree. One of the most fun nights ever. Post game campus Waffle House included.

He made a mistake this off season with regards to offensive personnel. Thats not debatable. Whether he admits and fixes it or not is TBD. I think Sark is a great fit for Texas and the SEC but he needs to ironically learn that the pedal is never off the gas at a place like Texas. Beat Arkie. Beat A&M. Fix the roster. But don’t leave over this one season. That would be short sighted on everyone’s part.

Watching Alabama goobers leave Bryant Denny in droves when we beat their butts in Tuscaloosa a couple of years ago.

Favorite Sark memory?

Mismanaged year, But we’re not having a penn state type of season.

Smdh he wins and this is the greatest comeback season ever (wrong) Close loss and he can’t get over the Kirby hump. (Right for a lot of coaches. Context metters) A final score that wasn’t fully indicative of the game. They are definitely better but the bottom fell out. We had our first game where the team lost its fight. Kudos to ga aggression with play calls. Now it’s fire him, he’s not all in, or he gone. (All wrong as no one knows. I doubt even sark does at this point) Can we act like this isn’t our first time rooting for a team? I love discourse and difference of opinion. Love it. None of what has posted since Saturday is this. Just feelings, emotions, and knee jerks at the ready. I worry for some of yall in that I wonder how y’all handle real life. Do you run around saying your boss is quitting because they’re in a down period? Do you leave your spouses/others if they go through a tough time? Goodness. Compose yourselves! This ain’t texags(and thank everything for that). 🤘🏽

He beats pretty much everyone not named Ohio State or Georgia over the last 2-3 years. That is a pretty nice quality to have. He faces the same thing every other coach in the SEC and Big Ten face in trying to catch those two programs. You'd rather it be that way than continually losing to teams you shouldn't be losing to.

Yeah, something is happening. We got nothing here about Goosby committing yesterday, I had to find it elsewhere. Then the vague post about something good coming out and silence since… oh and Sark needs to decide what’s going on. My gut says he’s had one foot out the door for weeks
