Assistant Regional Manager

Firing James Franklin, who couldn’t win the big game, for Matt Rhule, who is 0-18 against ranked opponents at Baylor and Nebraska, would be a tough sell if I was a Penn State fan.

Kinne or Traylor would need a Baylor/TCU/SMU type to shake loose I would think. And Kinne ain’t exactly covering himself in glory after entering the year with some expectations. I know Traylor tried for the UH job but he really needed to get out of UTSA a few years ago. He’s now in the G5 cycle of death in terms of his roster turnover.

Jimmy Sexton is going to have a very nice Christmas

Hard to give a guy a 4th year when he has mismanaged the QB position all 3 years. Pretty much had an open checkbook and freedom to do whatever he needed to fix the position after last season. He chose Jackson Arnold.

Is this somewhere between a 'hi' and an Arch Manning wave?

No, they didn’t.

This very site said it was the most physical fall camp they heard about in his 5 years here.

That was in relation to spring practice since it was less than 3 months after the previous season ended. Fall Camp had the full number of padded practices and normal contact periods.

Looking forward to your next post tomorrow. Wonder what it will say.

Didn’t they acknowledge after the Florida game he was playing through something? Then proceeded to play him 3 quarters against a FCS school the next weekend. Very strange.

It doesn’t. I was just responding to the original premise that Texas Tech is going to win the Kavian Bryant recruit because they negatively recruited Quinn Ewers draft position.

Brother, you can try to convince yourself otherwise but most of these decisions are money driven. Miami is going to try to tell a HS QB to not trust Texas’ development when Miami has had to go to the portal 3 straight years for a QB? Before Sayin, Ohio State had 3 straight cycles where they QB signee transferred. None of these schools have pristine track records. It’s college football. Trying to say Texas had a QB “only” go in the 7th round of the NFL draft is a waste of time.

Kavian Bryant is headed to the notable NFL QB development factory at……..Texas Tech. I’d love to see what that negative recruiting pitch looked like. I bet it involved a lot of brochures in the mail from Cody Campbell.

OU willingly benching Arnold to make Hawkins the starter last year is a little different than the situations they faced in 2022 and this year.

Is it a feature under Sark, or is it a feature of being at Texas? In the last 15 years, we have never once ranked better than 40th in penalties. Here is some years further back than what you listed: 2020- 116th (8.2) 2019- 115th (7.3) 2018- 109th (7.4) 2017- 106th (7.1) 2016- 102nd (7.1) 2015- 79th (6.4) 2014- 65th (5.9) 2013- 45th (5.2) 2012- 40th (5.2) 2011- 81st (6.5) -Texas gets officiated differently from other teams, whether intentionally or unintentionally. We went the entire 2023 season with 1 accepted holding penalty against our opponent in Big 12 play. 15 years in a row being one of the most penalized teams in the country under 4 different coaches. That isn't just a coincidence. -Timing of penalties. On Saturday, 3 of our 9 penalties were on the final offensive drive with third-stringers in the game. 4 of our 12 penalties against SJSU came on the final two drives with backups in the game. A lot of the miscues have been at the very beginning or very end of games. -Penalties are up across the country. Last year, only 26 total teams averaged more than 7 penalties a game. Currently, 49 teams are averaging 7 or more penalties. -All you can do is try to emphasize it the best you can. There isn't a magic wand.

A twitter account that tweets about OTF and posts the exact same stuff you do on here. What a coincidence. You are free to have your own opinions, but stop the lying. You have never supported nor been a fan of Steve Sarkisian. Vs

@CJ Vogel Do you have one of these charts from late last season (or the end of the season)? It would be interesting to compare where these teams finished last year vs where they are starting entering the beginning of conference play.

I’m all for disagreements and different points of view, but please don’t lie. We’ve all seen you post across multiple message boards over the years after any loss on the field or on the recruiting trail. Let’s also not forget you blamed Sark for not playing Arch Manning last year and have now turned around to blame him for how Arch Manning looks.

It’s impossible to excuse Sark when you shove this same stat down our throat every day here and on Twitter. A Kyle Flood thread and you still find a way to tie it back to your hatred of the head coach. You’ve been calling for the guy to be fired since the day he was hired.

Yes, CJ, please use your press conference question in week 4 of the season to ask Sark if he plans on firing his OL coach. I’m sure that will get a great response full of valuable information to share with the board.

You just had DJ Lagway throw 5 interceptions and only scored 20 points at home. A week after you scored 23 points against Louisiana Tech. It was a legitimate and valid question and Kelly had no right to blow up on the dude like that. The biggest issue I see is a lot of coaches think the media and reporters asking them questions should be fanboys and bow down after every game.

Kelly calling the reporter “spoiled” like the media is supposed to root for the program and their success. It was a completely valid question. LSU has scored 17, 23 and 20 points through 3 games despite returning of the best QB’s in the country. Their rushing game is an averaging awful 3.7 yards per carry.

Trust us, you remind us the coaches need to be better every chance you get. We know you don’t like them.

So we could give Arch Manning an extra few seconds in the pocket to skip it at his receivers feet or throw it in the stands?

Defense- 8 returning starters (Simmons, Guilbeau, Muhammad, McDonald, Taaffe, Lefau, Hill, Burke, Moore). Offense- 3 returning starters, two of which aren't even playing this weekend (Wisner, Moore). DJ Campbell is the only starter this weekend who also started the Ohio State game last January. It's been two games. Let it play out.
