Just something to keep in mind, Rick Barnes made the tournament almost every year and was eventually let go because expectations are to at least have deep runs, not just make the tournament. Shaka made the tournament and got sent packing every time. I believe the powers want more than just to make the tournament.

Surprised to not see ou at #1. Until they are beaten, they are the standard.

Well unless they manage to make some serious changes, when he's on the field you know it's most likely a pass play. If it's a run play, Texas edges should be able to get to the ball carrier pretty easily.

I watched the first few games and will not be watching again unless they get into the tournament. As you said, it's not fun to watch because it's primarily 1v1 shot creation and no semblance of an offense.

This would be hilarious, the threads will be that he was not sec ready

They are known as the 2% I believe, the few aggies with common sense.

Yep, they are holding out hope that Arch will not be good. They've been saying that since he committed with all their excuses, though we know full well if he had committed to atm that he'd be considered a football god. The tears will flow heavy once next season starts and Arch shows the world he's the real deal. And they will be delicious tears.

Any contingency plan for kicker in case auburn doesn’t regain his confidence?

Can we get this thread pinned?

Taaffe went from walk-on to not only being on scholarship but an all-American and was an integral part of a stud defense. It's not quite Freddie Steinmark but I would say he's fairly similar.

Did not have this on my bingo card

At one of the pep rally events they had in Houston, all the coaches in attendance basically said they all pushed CDC to hire terry. It's not that CDC could be pressured into a decision, but he plays the long game, it could have been possible that was not a battle he felt was at the right time to take on. Most of cdc's moves have worked with a timeline that was beneficial to everyone, usually at the end of a contract without renewal. He hasn't really fired anyone except beard I think and that was due to circumstances outside of performance of the team.

This article was linked in one of the volleyball forums: https://www.kvue.com/article/news/local/texas-president-jay-hartzell-resigns-smu/269-62f9e150-237a-40f0-9f53-c0ecb889c86c According to the article, it stemmed from protests on campus and how Hartzell handled it. I disagree with the those faculty actions if true. Hartzell is one of the best president's UT's had imo.

I'm old school and appreciate how Arch Manning announced it and carried on.

As the great Ric Flair always said - "To be the man, you gotta beat the man!". Wooooooo
