    After five years though of the same results though? Ewers couldn’t complete a deep shot to save his life at any point during his Texas career, but Sark kept trying to make his ideal offense a fit for Ewers. By his third year as the Starting QB he’d developed into almost exclusively a checkdown, screen pass, and layered intermediate route thrower. There was nothing resembling Sark’s ideal offense in year 3 of Ewers, so why did we have to watch year-over-year regression? Next comes the Arch era, and we are two seasons into the journey and the trajectory is decidedly downward….much like the Ewers era. Yet again, it’s two more years of Sark trying to force a square peg into a round hole, rather than change his own ways / philosophies. That makes 5 straight years of Sark blindly trying to make something work that just hasn’t, despite being provided with the most elite toolset in college football. Maybe the problem isn’t the QBs, OL, Flood, or anything other than the architect of it all.

    ESPN flashed a stat that 35% of Texas’ plays this season on first down have gone for zero or negative yards. That probably explains the inept 3-and-out number as much as anything else. It also explains the high number of turnovers. When you’re constantly in 3rd and long yardage every series, bad things happen (punts, sacks, QB pressure, resulting turnovers).

    I’d put money on Mizzou and give Texas 3.5 points without hesitation. Dumb line.

    Add in the whiff by Parker Livingstone on an onside kick against Vandy last season, and we are 0-3 in actually recovering the last 3 onside kicks we’ve faced. Fortunately, Vandy players recovered the ball out of bounds.

    The Protect College Sports Act requires a school to be independent for a few years if they choose to leave their conference for another conference. This seems like an anticipatory step. In addition, there’s a school of thought that the top revenue generating schools in the most top-heavy P4 conferences would be better off as independents instead of subsidizing the lesser schools of their conferences. If multiple high revenue schools from multiple P4 conferences were to go this route, then Independent scheduling issues go away.

    UAB are the Blazers but have a dragon as a mascot. I think you’re on to something.

    He’s not. The entire offense is just Sark joysticking the plays he designs, he likes, he is certain demonstrate his schematic brilliance. The players are just mindless robots used as props by the brilliant puppetmaster himself. Wait until you see what Arch can become at Miami next season under the tutelage of a real OC like Shannon Dawson. Sark is just John Mackovic 2.0, complete with the bogus, unworthy reputation for offensive brilliance and the arrogance that leads to the failure.

    Nah, it’s bigger than that. We were a 7-5 team last season without Niblett miracles against Kentucky and Miss State. That was the signal, but we all missed it. We got destroyed by Georgia late last season, and that was the canary in the coal mine for what this program is. Don’t let meaningless wins against aggy (1-5 in their last 6 P4 games) or the Cheez-it Bowl fool you. The reality was the Florida, Kentucky, Miss State, and Georgia games last season. That Texas program is what you see in 2026, even with an improved roster (Cam Coleman, Biles, Smothers, et al). This is Sark’s Texas program, warts and all. No more hiding it.

    Be serious. Any OC with a pulse runs the 2020 Alabama offense to a NC. What do you think Kiffin, DeBoer, W. Stein, Ryan Day, etc do with that Alabama 2020 offense as OC? They’d produce at least what Sark did as OC. Think through the causality.

    Penalties are a metric for teams that lack discipline (and / or have a low football IQ). Or both.

    Mac Jones was a first round pick, as were his RB (N.Harris), three of his OL, and four of his starting WRs (Ruggs, Jeudy, D.Smith, and J.Waddle). And Sark had some guy named Saban in charge of the team’s culture, execution, accountability, staff, made all the game management decisions, and defined the guidelines in which Sark was allowed to run the offense and call the plays. Sark has had at least TWO 5-star QBs on his roster for the last five seasons…yet for some reason the QB position continues to underachieve. What’s the common denominator?
  13. Glass Joe
    Less than 1% of P4 QBs would be successful in Sark’s offense. Arch is not unique in that regard. The sooner we all realize Sark is the problem on offense (and with the lack of discipline across the program), the sooner we can start holding him accountable.

    This is no bologna!! 😉 (Jerry owned Delaware Subs).

    On the bright side, even if they fire Elko this season, the buyout will still be less than Jimbo’s.
  16. Glass Joe
    After 6 years of Sark’s offense, does he have anything other than long developing routes and a checkdown in his route schemes?

    Iowa over Michigan Miss State over Missouri Tech over Houston

    We have an erudite Offensive Coordinator who doubles as the Head Coach, and who thinks his offense needs to be NFL quality in spite of playing the sport of college football. The result is a way too complicated offense for 18-21 year olds to execute effectively, designed to be win games the NFL way…by 3 points. Sark conpletely eschews the types of offenses most college utilize (many to great effect), and because Sark is so singularly focused on his NFL offense, he clearly doesn’t spend the time needed to teach his players basic football IQ - avoiding penalties, special teams, basic clock management, etc. How many five star QBs are we going to see “underperform” in this offense before we figure out what the real problem is?
  19. Glass Joe
    Arch will not be the QB at Texas next season, regardless of whether he leaves early for the NFL.

    Edwards visits Texas for tOSU game and all the feedback is Texas leads. Then, Edwards visits Tech for Coog High game and now all the RPMs are for him to go to Tech. Don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure out what happened was offered on the Tech visit that wasn’t on the Texas visit? And to whom that offer was made (hint: it’s not necessarily the player making the decision here)?
  21. Glass Joe
    He didn’t get any snaps against tOSU o. Saturday, correct?
  22. Glass Joe
    This is what happens when you forget to pay the electric bill.
  23. Glass Joe
    2028, I assume?

    Followed by their kicker

    10 points may be too much for Mateer and the OU offense to overcome 😂
