Want everybody's opinion on this...

[Bobby Burton]

I think Sark believes it's the explosive downfield plays. I'm not sure this team can execute those with the regularity of something that would also be described as bread and butter.

What can they rely on every series or in crunch time?

[Tex CJ-7]

I think the “stinger” is the weaponry individuals possess.

Each individual would have a different “stinger”. Arch may be excellence throwing long or utilization of the legs. Simmons, pass rush. Biles freelance. Wingo YAC…etc OL…hmmm…bull fighting?

I heard it was a shoulder injury and Texas’ stinger is Ryan Wingo. 

[ChanmanV]

Did he mean "stinker"? 

In seriousness, probably the deep post and seam routes. Don't know of anything else that would be considered effective against the defense so far.

1. Probably the deep ball and running game for Sark.

2. 3 and outs

It's the off-schedule playmaking. He doesn't want the offense to lose the ability to challenge a defense vertically when things break down either through Arch's legs or the deep ball. I'm fine with that if we had coupled it to power spread scheme almost identical to what MSST was running before Kamario got hurt. Unfortunately, we don't do that and far too often have two guys in deep routes out of 12 personnel while the interior gets mauled or a free rusher blast through on max protect. Is what it is.

Stinger is balls or guts. He knows his offense is waning in confidence so he’s trying to conjure up “eff it, show them who you are”. From arch chip to stingers to we don’t listen to the outside(while addressing the outside) is a diminuendo rallying cry. He keeps trying to fire them up when he needs to fundamental them up. No amount of gippering will save this team. 

I can’t help but think his outside life is impacting him. He just hasn’t been the same since last summer. I hope is personal world is good first and foremost. He knows football extremely well and I’m at a loss as to why he hasn’t done what’s necessary. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤘🏽

Stinger = a threat that can effectively hurt the other team. A deterrent primarily, but also available to use as a kill shot when executed effectively.

The only stinger I had heard of was what Bobby mentioned which is a hit that rattles you. Then there's also this guy...

The fact that our offensive guru HC/OC talks about the stinger and no one knows what the hell he’s talking about is very telling.

1) A stinger is an attitude of aggression and purposeful infliction of harm

2) Texas doesn’t have one. EDIT- if I had to choose one, it’s Arch designed runs that open up medium-deep routes.

It’s stinger like a bee‘s stinger. As in, “how we can hurt you.” Sark doesn’t want Arch to lose his stinger—his warrior-like mentality. For the offense, that stinger is up for debate. We likely view that differently from Sark.

For Sark, I think it’s hunting explosives. I’d love for it to be slants, quick throws, bubble screens, wheel routes, outside zone. Getting the ball out of Arch’s hand fast.
