Why not choose Klein? He is the OC of the number three team in the nation and from the Bill Snyder coaching tree. He was a hard-nosed football player, and he knows how to win with a KSU type roster. For over a year, some of you kool aid drinkers ranted and raved that Klein didn’t have what it took. Well, he has turned Reed into more than functional QB and with two very good portal WRs has turned the Aggy offense formidable even w/o their best RB. Nothing against Kinne or Traylor.

That won’t last long, not at Florida. What he has done at Mississippi has been amazing, with the talent in Florida and the NIL, he will win and win big. USC was an aberration because of probation.

That makes me sick.

It wasn’t good at all last year, not against good teams that you had to beat to win championships. Stupid us wanted a running QB, not a running back. Well. we got one, He isn’t slippery Mateer or Manizel type nor is he Josh Allen either. Since his confidence is shot to hell, the SEC will spy him and stop that. I wonder what all these insiders slipping info to the Mods of all these Texas boards really saw.

The problem with this team is upfront. They make OU’s look all SEC, and we know they are not. What has Flood wrought? What happened to the weight room? The lack of real talent upfront is glaring or is it the lack of development? Is D.J. even a draft prospect? He looks no better than his freshman year. Sark and Flood missed it at Center. The wrong guy is there. Not sure who should be but not Hudson. They wasted a Spring and Fall practice and never figured that out. They can’t fix Arch because the parts around him are broken. Texas should have been able to run the ball against UTEP with running backs, not needing Arch to be the run game. Who in the hell did Choice turn down to get this running back room? I blame Sark for being enamored with Wingo. We needed another Mitchell, Bond or Golden type from the early portal period. No, he went through Spring and whatever they saw there made them go get Mosley. Looks like a little late. And he is no Singleton, Auburn, or Concepcion, Aggies, just to name a couple. It appears every SEC team except Kentucky on our schedule is ahead of us on the offensive side if the ball. Yes, we have a good defense with some depth, but we play some talented offenses, and they drive better with no brakes than we do.

Accountable by whom? He has to win or he is fired. You have no clue what you are saying.

Rewrite of history, Mack was 5-7 after the Colt’s Senior season. He had no clue what he was doing by then. He was impressed with Bama and wanted to move the program into that style of play whereas Saban would adapt to the modern age of football. Patterson didn’t recruit the talented bunch Brown left Charlie. Patterson was a bad hire and not moving on from Mack in 2011 was a bad decision. 2010 1-6 in Big 12 2011. 4-5 2012 5-4 2013 7-2 but still lost 5 total. His last ten years in CFB he averaged 5 losses a year. Those are the facts. Nice man. Got lucky once with Vince. Raise your hand who should be the ambassador of Texas Football, Mack or Vince?

Arch is injured again? That is how many times since last weekend?

Yawn! Mike Gundy is at Okie State, Bill Synder at KSU. And they won more important games than Brown won at North Carolina. Greg Schiano is at Rutgers. Brown just another average coach who landed a great gig at Texas, and then could barely finish second in the South Division most years. One thing about his time at NC, second time, and Texas., his departures were the same. He was forced out.

Yawn, he took over a talented roster and won nothing for seven years. Lost to OU five in a row. Got blown out by OU four times. And when he left, it took a decade to get over the mess, he left behind. Yes, he won a national championship. I give him his due for that he deserves for that but he is just notch above Larry Coker, Gene Chizek, and Lloyd Carr other national championship coaches. He ain’t no Bill McCartney who built a program from the bottom to the top. He is no Dabo. Of course, he is not even in Stoops league. He is an average as coaches who landed at the right program at the right time. His record at North Carolina tells you about how good of coach he really is. In 35 seasons finished in the top ten six times. Stoops in 18 finished 11 times and 5 times in a row from 2000 to 2004. We don’t need him to be our ambassador. Sark is our ambassador.

Mack needs to be recognized when they honor the 2005 team this year. Other than that he needs to stay out of the limelight. I don’t care to see him or hear from him.

I defended Quinn always, and the only thing that I think people need to do is realize that Arch wasn’t going to take us any further the last two years than QE did. However, Arch is young, and I think he will get better. It would help him (the team) if we could run better and if another receiver would step up, but there is time for another WR to step. Well 2 more cupcakes before Florida and Dirt Robbers.

His problem with the players is the players. They are Saban kids, and they don’t want to play for him and probably nobody else either. Bama should have hired someone they were familiar with. Last year, he had to play Milroe. The team would have revolted. Milroe didn’t fit his scheme. So, he is a year behind with Simpson. Not having Grubbs hurt too but if a head coach needs particular guys to be successful than there will be a problem eventually once the guy gets an opportunity to get his own gig, which is one reason Saban was successful. It would eventually be the downfall of Mack at the end. He could not get the coordinator on the same page with him.

In a game where there might not be any points scored by half, you kick FG. Except for OSU’s wideouts, Sayin is bunch were raw. They were not going to score more than 17. Take the points in that type of game.

Good thoughts but the problem was Sark not kicking two field goals. He placed more pressure on his inexperienced offense to chase those six points the in the fourth quarter. If he had those six points, he could have, though not necessary, after Parker’s TD gone for two. Whatever, he did after that TD, on that last drive, he only needs a FG to win the game, not a miracle TD to go to OT. OSU would have had to defend the field differently. Smart people knew this game was a one-score game differential, except Sark. On the road, defending national champs, and he was throwing sure points away. This is not the first time because OU 2023 is another example.
