9.10.18 Coach Herman press conference (Noon)
I don't know if Herman gets hair plugs or uses something like Propecia, but maybe he can use one of those as an excuse to the incompetence. He's definitely using something. Dude was balder last year.

Texas recruiting notes 2019
Was watching film and came across Titus Swen from Eaton. Currently a 3 star with offers from the SMU type schools. This dude looks like the most physical runner I've seen in the DFW area in a while. Brewer couldn't tackle him with 5 guys. Dude should get late offers and if we miss on Cain, I wouldn't be disappointed with him.

I think we'll be ok
I do really like Ingram. 6+ yards a carry and has the shiftiness to make our line look better than it actually is. I didn't expect him to be this good. Sterns and Foster look good too. We're getting more from freshmen than we are our senior class. Hager, Omenihu, etc are the most disappointing part of this team. The offense looks like it should be competent. The pieces are there. It just falls apart, and Beck is terrible whenever we have bad field position.

To__ Orlan_o - _efensive Coor_inator
There are a lot of high school DCs around the state who are copying Orlando's defense, and for good reason. But when I see those teams face a school that goes under center and uses sweeps or lineman the way Maryland did, they adjust their front. Orlando never adjusted his front and I think it was cocky. If your defense is built to slow down Oklahoma, you still have to adjust to your non conference opponents. We kind of care about those games here.

We're getting gashed outside consistently and it'd be nice if we could adjust away from the 4i for a moment.

These blitzes are terrible and they just keep coming. We're handing them 10-15 yard completions at will.

I realize Jenks is really good, but how does Legacy get their ass beat that badly with that many D1 players?

Northwestern @ Purdue, 8ET/7CT, ESPN
Rondale kind of proving that just because you go to 200 games to evaluate players doesn't mean you have any clue what to look for. "He didn't produce in those games." Genius EJ.

I've never liked their colors or seen a design that makes them look close to decent. That might be the one school that could improve things by trying to Oregon it up or move away from their colors.

Fox / Disney (ESPN) Sale RE: Fox Sports Southwest
Yeah I'll probably cancel when football is over. But even if I dont l, its about 100 cheaper than uverse, and I had their service for 5 years.

Fox / Disney (ESPN) Sale RE: Fox Sports Southwest
Canceled Uverse a few months back. My bill was about 220 a month for internet and cable. Just got YouTube TV for 40 a month and it has all the ESPN's, FS1, CBS sports... basically everything I need for college football.

I haven't read a Bobby Burton post in here in months because I never know if it's real, and even if it is, it's probably trash.

Great Directors that made a shitty movie or two
Every director's career has a high point that ends followed by disappointments. They know it as well. It's why Tarantino says he wants to walk away eventually. And hes still made some bad ones. This thread really includes every director of the modern era. As for PTA, personally I'd like him to rediscover humor.

Does Nebraska still have stripes on their pants? Cant tell from that tweet. They look better without the stripes like the 90s. The stripes just make them look like Wisconsin.

Succession -- HBO
He didn't write the show.

2018 Longhorns Fall Practice/Football Season Thread
Why I'm hopeful for 9 wins: -It is insane how close Texas was to 10 or even 11 wins last year. USC, Tech, and Oklahoma State are all wins if Ehlinger doesn't turn it over at the end of each. Oklahoma was there for the taking. -We will most likely have 10 upperclassmen starting on defense and all of them are at least solid to potentially really good (Omenihu, Hager, Nelson, Johnson, Wheeler, Roach, Boyd, Davis, Jones, Locke) -Our defensive coordinator has prevented opponents from getting to 30 points in 31 of his last 39 games. Nobody in the Big 12 has yet to get 30 on him (in regulation). -The offense really just needs to be average, and their talent is about average (other than WR). -The Big 12 should be down, especially the teams that have consistently beaten us lately. Why I'm doubtful: -The offensive line. -Tim Beck -It's been so long, I'm beaten down.

Succession -- HBO
I haven't really had a favorite TV show since Mad Men ended and Game of Thrones started being lame. This has now taken the lead. The trailer for this show didn't sell me at all. It's so damn smart and funny.

The Death of Stalin
There seems to be a trend of British TV comedy writers who are creating really smart drama in or around their comedy. Auanucci - Veep/Thick of It to Death of Stalin Charlie Brooker - Yearly Wrap to Black Mirror Jesse Armstrong - Peep Show to Succession

The amount of posts people have spent complaining about the color of the jerseys when it hasn't actually changed is pretty astounding. Right up there with the annual "wow *insert strength and conditioning coach* is really great. Look how jacked the players are" posts because guys have biceps and deltoids.
