  1. This is the kicker, hitting is hot and cold but pitching has been consistently terrible all year. Can't expect to win it all with that formula. And the goal at Texas is to win it all, not make it to a regional.
  2. Will be excited on draft day for the first time in many years - both as a Texas fan and as a Texans fan.
  3. Reminds me a bit of Jalen Milroe with his deep pass. Just not the same runner.
  4. Rod mentioned on the latest show that if Sark doesn't think Helm is a difference maker that he won't scheme him. And you'll see it I. The first few games. This made me think, once a defensive coordinator sees that, wouldn't he then scheme accordingly? Like rotate a weaker defender over to Helm knowing he's not a threat. It kind of reminds me of when ou would put in Blake Bell, I would scream that it's an obvious run and was utterly confused why Texas didn't sell out on the line knowing it was a 99% chance it was a run. Any help in understanding the thought processes of the defense would be appreciated.
  5. As with college, I think a little luck plays into whether a player will be successful or not (most of the time). As someone said earlier, Worthy's production may vastly differ from being in KC's offense versus being in say the Bears. Also, there's a big difference in which QB is throwing you the ball, which is also out of the player's control.
  6. Texas was supposed to win last year also, throw out all expectations for that game.
  7. Roschon Johnson or J Whitt for me, both gave their hearts for the program, did whatever was asked of them, and helped change the culture to bring Texas back to the national spotlight. They were never seen as me first players.
  8. With Ohio St. amount of skill position players, Howard doesn't need to be CJ Stroud, if he just game manages and does not turn the ball over, they probably win 90% of their schedule on that alone.
  9. As with everyone else, I'm in total agreement. The other Big 12 schools keep talking trash about how they're glad Texas is leaving the conference. That's great, no more Texas on the schedule and see how your attendance (which includes ticket sales, hotel bookings, restaurant patrons, etc. do). In addition to football, pretty much every other sport's attendance is spiked when Texas comes to town (as the good guy or bad guy) like the volleyball team. It's always a packed house when the Longhorns come to play.
  10. I think they are scared, Bobby stated on one of the streams, this is potentially another big window for Texas if the QBs they have in the pipe are as good as we think. A la the 2000s Texas or Bama recently. Thus their hope is that the good QBs in waiting transfer away. In today's world of me first and I wanna start now, it's nice to see the Mannings play the long game.
  11. I watched this interview of Jake Majors on 3rd and Longhorn on YouTube and one of the points that caught my attention was Alex Okafor talking about how the culture is different with Sark with regards to former players. At about the 3:20 mark, Okafor talks about how while he was in the league, Herman did not allow him to use the weight room. I would think that you'd want NFL players to hang around the team to provide insight and support but I guess that's another reason I'm glad Sark's here.
  12. Outside of College Station, the negative PR hit would be so massive (scared of Texas) that I think it would severely damage their ability to recruit, even with NIL. Add that to trying to get local kids to tell their families they would be playing way far away from home. So imo, yes even bigger than Jimbo. He was still bringing in talent.
  13. They have to be thinking about what would happen should any penalties come down on the program. Harbaugh leaving doesn't alleviate Michigan of any faults if they indeed are proven to have committed acts that incur penalties.
