  1. How can we put this? Mack was a better program builder than he was an actual football coach. I remember being frustrated much more often than satisfied. As a fan, I'm happy to recognize him for taking the Longhorns back to the top and re-establishing Texas football. There's really nothing to be gained by being churlish and pointing out what didn't happen.
  2. Sark's comment to the guy who tried to insist Arch is injured because of facial expressions was great. "We don't film your facial expressions when you're going to the bathroom." It's all a bunch of crap.
  3. Many of Arch's big plays last year were to Wingo and Moore, but I think your point is valid. Wingo and Moore are being covered differently now. Wingo is consistently doubled, and defenses are looking to keep a safety over Moore deep. Moore made a couple of nice catches yesterday. Hopefully Coach Jackson can get these guys to do a better job of working leverage. If Livingstone keeps making big plays, defenses won't be able to stop everything.
  4. Jerry's actually been pretty good at running a draft board and roster building (or at least he has scouts that can tell him). His problem is that the meddles so much that he undermines the coach in the locker room. But I agree. I don't think Shanahan would be willing to work under Jerry.
  5. I get it. The standard is high. If he doesn't work out, maybe the Cowboys can hire him, although I doubt seriously he'd work for Jerry.
  6. I didn't notice the no effort part. I did initially think he simply failed to adjust on the deep ball, but then I thought maybe he was running to a landmark and didn't realize until too late that he needed to adjust. It's true that either way you need to adjust, but without knowing more, I'm not ready to flat out criticize. When Sark was talking about how he thinks Simmons is maybe trying too hard, he said the same thing about Wingo. I think if Wingo was simply failing to play hard, Sark would've probably just stayed silent. I don't know. Like to give Wingo a few more games to work it out before putting too much into it.
  7. Man, that's some stuff. Hasn't Shanahan done enough to get the benefit of the doubt for a year or two? I hardly ever watch the Niners.
  8. Be interesting to note what these guys say when he's lighting it up consistently by mid season. My guess is shameless reversal. On the rewatch I thought I'd find stuff to criticize Wingo for. Not really too much. He had the drop, but he had a block that sprung Livingstone on the long TD. Hard to tell how he looked on his routes without the all 22. It seems that he and Arch are just having a hard time syncing up. Can't necessarily blame that on Wingo without knowing more about the routes, targets, etc.
  9. These games are so exciting I fell asleep watching.
  10. Redzone ineptitude. Make the Longhorns look like redzone wizards.
  11. Can someone explain how the Falcons can be so stupid? They must try the hardest to be the worst they can be.
  12. I'd say the biggest problem Texas has so far is penalties. Penalties basically gave Ohio State one score, and penalties were responsible for much of the lack of consistent offense against SJSU. We must be close to the top for holding and false start and procedure penalties.
  13. I've seen guys grimace while shooting jumpers, making throws in all sports, tapping puts, etc. I don't remember it leading to wild speculation about injury unless it was already known the guy was injured.
  14. A side note on the Arch talk: We knew the level of scrutiny was going to be unprecedented, but it's more than I thought it would be in terms of each outlet/analyst trying to outdo each other on every play. Knew there we talk about good and bad stuff, but trying to figure out his facial expressions and body movements on every play is nuts.
  15. Given that all the "grimaces" come on missed throws, and then he follows up by throwing a dart 30-50 yards, the injury speculation is a prime case of reading too much into the situation. He could get dinged up any time, but there's no reason to think he is now.
  16. I don't think we'll know much about the top of the Big 10 until the playoff. Ohio State, Penn ST and Oregon only have one or two tough games. That means all three are getting in unless they lose key players or simply melt down. Big 12 and ACC are guesswork. SEC will likely beat each other up. Could mean the SEC will be more battle tested in the playoff; could mean they'll be battered and bruised. Obviously there's plenty of time for a team or two to figure it out.
  17. Leavitt is 4 for 12 with 7 yards in the first half against Miss ST!
  18. LSU struggling with La Tech, confirming the weak Clemson win. Florida can be dangerous; however, if they lose to LSU and Miami (both on the road), they'll come into the Texas game 1-3 with everyone calling for Napier to be fired.
  19. Another TD for Miss ST. Leavitt getting buried. Love it.
  20. Been a good day so far. Georgia looked like crap. Florida lost in embarrassing fashion. Aggy D still bad. Gerry boy Leavitt being humbled by a terrible Miss ST team. Clemson is crap, meaning LSU win wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Mateer just threw a pick.

  22. Must say I like hearing the niners have problems. Are they caught in cap trouble? Doesn't seem like Shanahan would just be missing.
  23. Why will the criminal sooner o-line get eaten alive by Michigan?
  24. That's Kirby building relationships with the city of brotherly shove.
  25. Commie Mike is what you would call a click bate troll. Flips back and forth more than a two dollar floozie.
