That guy looks in the mirror to assign blame more than any coach I remember. I like the way he holds himself accountable.

Moderators Jeff Howe Posted January 29 Moderators Share Posted January 29 McEndoo has a few different ties to the staff. He played with Jeff Banks and Chris Jackson at Washington State and worked with PK at Montana State. Hiring McEndoo is part of Sark’s answer to making up for the loss of Gunnar Helm. Instead of trying to outright replace Helm with another player, Jordan Washington and Nick Townsend could both function more like how Oklahoma State used its Cowboy Backs. I also like what this could mean for the Pony (two-back) package, just in terms of seeing more of it in 2025. 16 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Burton Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Just to be clear, while the hire could be very impactful, this is similar to what Sark has done with other coaches he felt added value (like Scottie Haselton last year and the nickels or Joe DeCammilis and special teams). McEndoo was let go by Mike Gundy after this season, so he’s been searching for a landing spot for this season. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has never called plays in his career and was a TE/fullbacks coach. I don't see this as anything more than a normal analyst coming on board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one said anything about play calling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see this as anything more than a normal analyst coming on board. I’m talking about using tight ends more like fullbacks. Lead blocking and power running. That’s not a stretch. 🤷 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no idea what he is bringing. For all we know, he could be the designated donut pick-up guy for meetings. We also thought Brennan Marion would bring Go-Go offense stuff to Sark's system and we didn't see a damn thing. I know we will spend this entire offseason trying to spin every move into an "oh, this is for x in the red zone," but that is not how the majority of these analysts' hires work. Some guys will spend time scouting upcoming opponents, some will spend time self-scouting, some won't even have a headset on gameday. It's impossible to know what an analyst's role is going to be 12 hours after he is hired outside of wishcasting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuco Ramirez Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 With the difficulties Texas has had in the red zone over the last two years, I like that Sark is throwing the kitchen sink at the problem. He brings an innovative concept that can help with very little risk to Texas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austalgia Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) I don’t want to get my hopes up, but if we can use some of these plus size athletes (Terry, Townsend, Winston) in two back sets and out wide ala Debo Samuel’s hunting mismatches that is exciting. I could go for some more positionless football. Edited January 29 by Austalgia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got one now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch will be comfortable in the red zone but I’m more interested in seeing how different the RZ play calling is from Sark next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
