    Prob went with Kavan cause ou batters hadn't faced her yet this season. Really more an issue with the bats, they tend to go ice cold. Only the Florida game was a breakout.

    In today's portal and NIL world, the right coach can turn things around fairly quickly

    CDC is a master at making all the things happen behind the scenes before he shows his hand. It's like he's playing chess, he's got the next 10 moves already lined up before me actually makes a move. When it's time for him to make a change on the baseball coach. I'm fairly confident it will be swift and a replacement announcement within days if not hours.

    I wouldn't think he'd have much leverage to demand an extension unless the team makes it to Omaha at the least.

    I'm a graduate of Alief Hastings (not naming the year) but hope he ends up with the good guys.

    The big difference between Sark's tenure so far is the guys that stayed with the program that weren't "stars" before were able to make it to the NFL and be drafted higher than they projected. Like Byron Murphy, T'vondre Sweat, Christian Jones. Contrast that (not to throw stones) with the previous regime where 5 star can't misses ended up going in lower rounds and very few draft picks.

    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.

    Will be excited on draft day for the first time in many years - both as a Texas fan and as a Texans fan.

    Reminds me a bit of Jalen Milroe with his deep pass. Just not the same runner.

    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.

    Exactly, is so easy to loophole it's asanine.

    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.

    Texas was supposed to win last year also, throw out all expectations for that game.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    But are they roomates?

    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.

    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.
  22. HookemTexas
    I would agree with that - human nature is that they don't want to be considered the person that "broke the damn" or "started the exodus" but if someone else goes first, then they can point the finger at someone else.

    It's not like the NCAA is going to do anything about it.
  24. HookemTexas
    People tend to highlight the negative things and tend to forget the positives. For example - no one ever thanks the payroll team when they get their paychecks (which happens every week, other week, or monthly for years, but they are quick to complain when a mistake happens for whatever reason (system error, manager forgets to approve time, etc.)
  25. HookemTexas
    I think it stemmed from Mike Davis doing a holster motion after a TD and getting flagged for taunting. Mack Brown said in a post game interview that it shouldn't have been a taunting penalty if horns down isn't a penalty.
