  1. Building and sustaining are different modes of operation. Sark has to successfully transition to a sustaining model. He can't talk about building anymore because he's been here 5 years. He owns it now. He can either sustain what he has built or he cannot. We will see.
  2. If A&M wins it all, and Texas doesn't make the playoffs, woof.
  3. What a conversion. Wow. I thought they were toast there.
  4. Elko laughing all the way to the bank. Thanks, fellers!!
  5. There's a coaching gap that we have to acknowledge, and Georgia has more explosive offensive players. We're also playing in Athens. 34 Georgia - Texas 17
  6. Ultimately, many college players will make more than their counterparts in the NFL. There's a shorter window where good players are more valuable to colleges than to pro teams.
  7. I think @chennups was politely telling you that you said both visits were OV.
  8. Refs continue to change outcomes. Just getting to be so bad that watching sports is losing its appeal TBH.
  9. Georgia's DL shifts late quite a bit. We'll have to deal with that better than we have in prior meetings.
  10. Having an elite RB makes such a difference.
  11. Three years ago, if you had told us that Manning and Sark would create a pedestrian offense at Texas, I think we would have all been in vehement disagreement.
  12. There are so many questions on offense. We're not consistent and we have few explosive players. The OL is a mess. We could score 13 or 38 and neither would be surprising. Vandy 34-20 Texas
  13. He's been great all year.
  14. He was a willing blocker, but overpowered at times by smaller players. Really good hands and caught the ball away from his body. Good in contested catch situations. Returned kickoffs and showed good agility. But he was maybe 6’-2 1/2 and looked a bit thin. Not as big as his instagram profile of 6-5 220 His frustrations became a bit of a lightning rod and the crowd actually chanted “overrated” at him, which I thought was a bit much. He could be a good college player, but he didn’t seem like a game changer at the college level.
  15. Brock had about 5 catches for 55 yards and a TD. Looked like a good player, but he’s not close to 6-5 and not a five star imo. He played mostly in-line but made his catches from the slot. Good hands and made two tough contested catches. But his team got spanked and he was pretty frustrated on the field. Not sure he’d be at the level our current TEs are right now.
  16. We’re going to see Brock Williams play tonight. He’s a five star TE who plays for Libertyville (IL) HS. Will report back.
  17. Last season, Arch played with confidence and was growing into a really good player. Not being the starter and not having all the outrageous expectations put him in a good place mentally. This year is not last year. Not sure why that is so difficult to understand.
  18. Texas 28 - UTEP 17
  19. The defense has outperformed the offense throughout Sark's tenure (except for year 1). It is very difficult, and rare, for a HC to be an elite OC at the same time. I don't think Sark can do it. He needs to find someone to call plays. It's no knock on him; it's almost universal that teams have separate playcallers. There's just too much going on simultaneously to not delegate that job.
  20. I watched the 2019 game vs Baylor with Case McCoy at a hotel bar. We were both there for different family events, but watched Texas get our butts kicked all the way to the bitter end. The game sucked, but Case couldn't have been nicer.
  21. Cosby's career was so interesting because he came back to college football after spending four years playing pro baseball. That is so rare. Jammer was my favorite for years. He was a beast as a college player. I don't think we've had a corner as dominant at the college level. The rule changes in the NFL limited his success somewhat, but he still played for a decade or so as a starter in the League.
  22. Anyone who turned off the game at halftime will be kicking themselves.
  23. This is so funny. I needed something lighthearted.
  24. CB is an endearing dude. I loved that. 🤘
