Assistant Regional Manager

Nick Saban never “fired” anyone. He would just tell them to go find another job. It’s funny that the same people who claim Sark has some “huge ego” also believe he would walk as the head coach at Texas so he could go call plays at NC State or some such. That doesn’t compute. He’s going to do what it takes to continue being the head coach at Texas, even if it means having tough conversations.

He gave it up at USC to Clay Helton at one point so there is precedent. He also never said he’ll never give it up here. He said he wasn’t giving it up 15 minutes after we lost to OU in the middle of the season. There is a difference. If his options are give up playcalling or stop making $11 million a year, I’ll bet you which one he chooses.

I promise a true freshman OL is not the answer to any problems we have. see: Brooks, Nick 2025

You have to be all-in or all-out on portal QBs. It would be pretty stupid if we invested a pretty penny for multiple developmental years of KJ Lacey and Dia Bell, only to just bring in another high priced transfer whenever it was time for them to finally play. I’m not going to take the time to look it up but I’m gonna guess Miami and Indiana have basically quit recruiting notable HS QBs.

You are responding to a troll, man. It's not worth your time. The guy spends all day making fun of OTF mods on Twitter, yet is allowed to come on here and stir up drama. Notice how he's never around after wins.

Considering their football schedule this year, they already have some good practice with being independent.

I find it hard to believe the Mannings are playing shadow OC from the sidelines and dictating what Arch can and can't do. If so, then shame on our staff for allowing it and I hope they pull the plug soon. If you hope to play QB in the NFL, you are going to have to run and you are going to get hit. There is no being "protected" in that league. I would think Archie Manning knows that.

My cousin played for him at Texas you prick. So yeah, I do have an idea how Augie Garrido acted. Thanks for asking.

Here is your ear Mr. texastwostepp. Feel free to go back to trashing Bobby online. I couldn’t imagine paying money to be on a message board just so I could be a troll.

What exactly are we looking at here Phog? A SEC QB getting hit and pressured as he throws? Is that supposed to be unique to Arch? Thankfully once he reaches the NFL, the pockets will always be clean and the throwing windows will be much larger.

Nobody knows if KJ is the answer, but firing AJ Milwee or Kyle Flood on October 19th does nothing for the rest of the season. A QB change might actually do something.

Part of the reason Augie’s rant meant something is because he rarely acted like that, so the team knew it meant something when he did. I think people believe he acted like that after every loss and that couldn’t be further from the truth.

All the more reason to go if you trust your defense and are facing a backup QB. A Florida drive starting at midfield shouldn’t scare you. And the decision would have worked out either way if said defense didn’t allow a 4th and 12 conversion to that backup QB right after.

Almost all coaches are going for that. It’s 4th and 1 foot at midfield and you had moved the ball well up to that point and just picked up 14 yards the play before.

We are 2 weeks removed from Kinne losing to a team that had a mumps outbreak and was missing half its starters. He is 13-13 between the Sun Belt and PAC12 He isn't going to be coaching in the SEC anytime soon.

Indiana is going to hear that they are required to play a P4 non-conference opponent and sprint to schedule Boston College or Stanford as fast as they can.

He isn’t going to tell people publicly in the middle of the damn season what Arch is or isn’t doing at the line of scrimmage. Opponents listen to these press conferences. He isn’t going to throw his QB under the bus. It ain’t that serious.

Arch has some of the highest times-to-throw in the country. I'd be interested to know how many times he has self-sacked this year, because it feels like it has been at least 6 or 7 times.

The protection Arch is getting is miles better than last year, and for some reason, that has made his pocket presence worse. Doesn't add up.

If you actually watched the video, you would see Brooks walk through multiple examples of Arch turning down check downs and hot routes for no reason. On the final interception, he had Winston sitting down on a 5 yard hitch. You would also see Brooks walk through examples of Arch poorly navigating a clean pocket and creating self imposed pressure. Brooks didn’t seem to have many issues with the playcalling.

Oh, I am going to have to totally disagree with that. A punt would have been the absolute worst decision. Especially knowing your kicker has hit from that distance already this year. What if you punt and it's a touchback? You gained a whopping 15 yards in field position. If you have that much faith in your defense, which we do, it's even more reason to go for it because defending from your own 35 shouldn't scare you.

You are such an immature prick. The absolute worst part of this board is seeing you show up anytime something bad happens after you disappear during all the good moments. You have no idea what is or isn’t said in the Texas locker room before a game because we don’t have people leaking unedited pregame speeches on Twitter. What you get is an edited version from the media team. If you want to believe Steve Sarkisian has never yelled before a game or during halftime, go ahead.

Awesome job derailing a thread 1 comment in

We didn’t force one turnover against a team that was giving them out like candy all year. Every phase of this team earned that loss equally.
