yes, because Bobby and crew are actual journalists. But real people like us know that Bobby is the exception rather than the rule. Once upon a time journalism was well-respected. Now they're the butt of jokes. "JOURNALISM" is now an epithet, certainly not any kind of complement worthy of respect. It's nice that there a FEW like Bobby still out there, though. HOOKEM

Never seen any fans miserable after an exciting game like that. If any fans were miserable after a win, it would've been last week vs Kentucky!

Idk Caldwell, Mosley, Brevard, Watson, Shaw, Kanu. Bowmeester, and Shipley have all been welcomed additions to this team this season.

Inch deep mile wide usually. And I don’t trust their sourcing or motives. I trust Bobby to tell it like it is.

Doesn’t matter if you pay the wrong players. It appears that’s what happened this year to Texas.

Woken is one of the worst in the industry and an automatic mute for me. You can’t get much worse than him and it has been that way for years.

Thank gawd we are richer… if we want to

OTF just doesn't understand the media like regular folks do. You can't see the trees because the forest is in your way. You guys are great, but you are operating with clowns and outright criminals and, yes, they will at least ATTEMPT to fool you if you let your guard down. These clowns (like Wolken) are not your friends. But WE know that BS like this passes for "journalism" amongst other "journalists." For the most part, journalism is dead. Yes, Bobby and his crew do a great job, but us regular folks reading these articles are used to reading this BS on a regular basis every day. It's what we have become accustomed to over the years, and it gets worse day by day. I wish I was wrong.

It’s today

In some ways, I hate what the industry I’ve chosen as a means to provide for my family has become since I started. This is article is a prime example of why. I’d like to think you can write compelling, thought-provoking content without farming for clicks. Maybe my optimism is the problem and I’m the one who is out of touch? Either way, there’s a lot of stuff in Dan Wolken’s piece that reinforces how click-driven the industry has become, quality of the content be damned. Whatever valid points he made are buried beneath cheap shots that are either sensationalized or patently false.

Any word on the scrimmage yesterday?

I had to call my parents to make sure they were still alive. That fourth quarter had them screaming so loud their cat jumped in the air and ran into the bedroom.

We don't need to be giving clicks and engagement to rag trash. We're just giving them SEO, and I would rather we not do that.

They aren’t there to tell the story, they are there to generate interest in their stories.

Is it a similar scenario to Venables where Kelly has to finish the regular season 8-4 to keep his job? After this bye week, Kelly has to go to Bama, play at home against Arkansas and WKU (LOL) before finishing at OU. Not sure they win any of those games besides WKU.

This is the guy who wanted to cancel football bc of covid

Thanks. I was looking for this and couldn’t find it. This is going to be wild and entertaining.

He was talking about Texas fans being miserable. He’s out of touch. If any Texas fans were miserable last night, I didn’t hear from a single one of them and we had 4K people on the Post-Game show.

Coached by the same guy that found Cam ward... SARK LET'S GET ERIC MORRIS ON A PLANE TO AUSTIN!

Most likely. But every fan base has its bed wetters. Some may even be disappointed we did come back.

I'm just bringing back this post from August.. Mestemaker is having a heck of a year.. could be the multi million dollar transfer to one of the big boys next year, especially with the coaching changes that are coming. zero star without high school starts to this. https://saturdayblitz.com/north-texas-qb-drew-mestemaker-emerges-as-a-star-with-record-shattering-performance

I wonder if OU feels the need to get in the coaching sweepstakes like Penn St, Fla, Fla St and LSU.

There are many adjectives I would use to describe the psyche of Texas fans after yesterday’s comeback victory. Elated? Excited? Thrilled? “Miserable” is not one of them. I’m guessing he had most of this written before the Texas comeback and just wanted to crap on Texas regardless. https://sports.yahoo.com/college-football/breaking-news/article/misery-index-steve-sarkisians-mess-in-texas-isnt-the-longhorns-only-problem-040139999.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly90LmNvLw&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAALYY2yi36daXMVb9VBxIjJ7PIjE_92Tpt21TXon5XndIvkEvQIqphUdCw3DUMi7Bj3QjaLtUkGvLeTeu5wDjHRxceOSdhisfQQxgyRIWW1axa5RrQ3vH50uemzxcXKiwfApWdI7eBtpqupKxHVAzTVcWHyL2VaM6nJU095rjllQs

How’s that vindication tour going, sport?
