    They can rely on the defense. But the implication on offense stands, they have no bread and butter. It’s very deflating. As I said in an early thread the running game has gotten worse every year since he’s gotten to campus. I get that’s partly due to poor OL evaluations and lack of development but it also seems to fall out of a lack of prioritization in the offensive scheme. Sark talks about the running game unlocking everything else but he does not ever stick with it. He’s an OC that builds his rosters from the outside in with flashy WRs, big name QBs and outside zone RBs while fundamentally run oriented coaches like Kirby build their offenses with strong OL, elite tight ends, war daddy inside zone RBs and serviceable bus driving QBs.

    Five star WR has us in his final three with Florida and the U and announcing Thursday. Any reason for optimism? @Gerry Hamilton @Bobby Burton

    They certainly haven't been grooming the next QB with live reads the way they should be. But I would still roll with our current guys and spend every dollar we have on a new OL in the portal this offseason. If we don't have the best OL in the country next year there are even bigger malfunctions in our roster management than the ones we already know about.

    Take it with a dose of satire. Zero percent chance Major coaches at Texas again.

    He’ll pin it on Arch and flush him out like they did Ewers. Then it’s off to the Lacey / Dia era with little change to the putrid multi year issues at OL and running game. Maybe Lacey or Dia help early on with their legs in 2027 before they get that coached out of them too. With no running game and no OL to count on we go on another frustrating September and October of inconsistent poorly managed football and eventually the roars from donors spending millions on the program grow louder than the ability to pin losses on quarterbacks. Sark resigns and Major Applewhite triumphantly returns to Austin as head coach with Muschamp as DC in the ironic twist of all ironic twists. Texas goes on to win back to back natties.

    Poor talent acquisition, poor development and never coming close to replacing Herman’s RBs, TEs or Jake Majors and you end up with this:

    Whelp. Guessed wrong.

    Me thinks St Louis receiver. Bobby hinted at it.

    If we trot out the same game plan of a short lived script and nothing built in that plays to Arch’s strengths and mitigated his inability to process reads after it this weekend we deserve to lose. We need to see noticeable positive developments on offense through the second and third quarter. Anything short of noticeable changes is tilting at windmills insanity.

    So honest question. How does a finesse cerebral coach like Sark build an offensive identity with more physicality like Kirby, Muschamp, Saban etc do? Is it just handled by assistant coaches? They always say a team resembles its head coach. Is that then the problem? We will never have a physical identity on offense and just have to wear the soft label as long as Sark is here or a generational player like VY comes in and takes that role completely over?

    Saban would point to this chart and rip Sark a new a**hole.

    I don’t think Hutson is cleared.

    Sikorski has played better than I expected him to. Center to RG to RT seems to be our weakness this season as opposed to last season which was more C / LG. Common denominator is C and zero depth to replace starters who aren’t getting it done.

    Don’t disagree. And I get that there are exceptions to the blue chips rankings in both directions. But it is proven over and over again that highly ranked high four and five star players pan out more than lower ranked recruits and Flood ain’t signing them.
  17. drag worm
    Does not apply to the offensive line. In six signing classes since Flood arrived, we have signed exactly four players considered blue chip prospects: 2022: Banks / Campbell (both long gone) 2023: None (*credit to finding three star Goosby but this is a blue chip discussion) 2024: Baker 2205: None 2026: Turntine The lack of elite players has continuously been chalked up on sites like this one and others as a “Big Humans” strategy where lesser ranked candidates get groomed in the ranks and blossom when needed as maulers. Looking at the collection of offensive line players this season especially the depth options that strategy has been an abject failure. Say what you want about Coleman, Raleek, Smothers, Bishop, Wingo, etc and what a “talented roster” we have but the lack of an elite OL is the foundation of our suckage and it has been for three seasons now.

    We have no other viable options at center. That’s how bad things are with Flood’s unit.

    KJ and it should have started at the end of the third quarter.

    12 personnel and 20 yard crossing routes, bro.

    It’s like Sark has turned the entire Quinn pre snap offense into color by numbers for Arch, and he’s still missing open reads and giving the ball away.

    Identity: Undisciplined misuse of talent.
  25. drag worm
    The offseason attempt to fix the most glaring problem from the 2025 roster can officially be declared a failure. Now it’s time to go back to contingency planning and scheming around that weakness the way we did second half of last season. Arch on the move.
