Assistant Regional Manager Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago 17 minutes ago, TexasLonghorns said: For Sark and Kyle Flood not to bring in O-line help from the portal looks like a major mistake. The struggles up front make it clear they needed reinforcements. Just look at Oregon, Dan Lanning rebuilt his line with portal veterans like Isaiah World (Nevada), Emmanuel Pregnon (USC), and Alex Harkey (Texas State), three of their starters, 98 combined starts, and they’ve looked like one of the best O-lines in the country. That’s how you use the portal to solve problems. So we could give Arch Manning an extra few seconds in the pocket to skip it at his receivers feet or throw it in the stands? Quote

That’s not the point. The O-line sets the tone, you need it to control games, protect the QB, and open the run game. Oregon showed how it’s done by bringing in nearly 100 career starts from the portal. Texas didn’t, and it shows. And if Arch is still skipping throws in Year 3, that’s on Sark and the staff to coach him up. The coaches have to be better, both in development and roster building. 2 Quote

Trust us, you remind us the coaches need to be better every chance you get. We know you don’t like them. Quote

We know you don’t like them. I’m not ‘reminding’ anyone, I’m pointing out what’s right in front of us. The O-line is a disaster, QBs aren’t developing, the WR room outside of Livingstone is barely functional, and the offense “Sark’s supposed specialty” is the part of the team falling apart. Pretending I’m being ‘negative’ for stating facts isn’t loyalty, it’s making excuses. If you’re stalking every post I make just to lecture me about disliking the coaches, that says more about you than it does about me. Pointing out the obvious isn’t a vendetta, coaches earn trust, and Sark and Flood haven’t earned a single second this season. Maybe start noticing the problems before policing fans for noticing them. 6 Quote
Sundancekid Posted 25 minutes ago Posted 25 minutes ago Stroh, Hutson and Baker certainly aren’t grading out so well… who would have thought protecting Arch would be such a priority? Quote

Flood couldn’t suck up his pride and go get guys from the portal. People on this board saw this happening from miles away. If Sark makes changes this offseason, Flood and Milwee should be out the door immediately. 1 Quote
