Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
I agree. We've consistently had DTs improve year over year. Sweat had questions about his motor and weight as recently as last year and now he's on On3's heisman list.

9-1
Early in the season it was the opposite. In fact the talking heads were saying how we get stronger as the game goes on and win the 4th quarter. I don't know exactly what happened since then but I'm reasonably sure attrition through injuries plays a part. People compare UT's close games to Georgia against Auburn or South Carolina, etc. The difference is that Georgia starts slow and and then turns it on and pulls away. They outscored South Carolina 21-0 in the second half and outscored Auburn 17-3 in the last 16 minutes of the game. Michigan has had some slow starts and then blow out their opponents. That's a "normal" pattern when dominant teams play cupcakes. Texas is just weird this year.

Official Coach Sark Thread of Dominance—haters back off
Which game would you say he's been elite this year?

Official Coach Sark Thread of Dominance—haters back off
He needs to let someone else call plays. When things start going wrong, he can't problem solve on his own.

Hey PK -- What would you say you do here?
I have had this same thought. How can he be so good at taking away other teams' strength and then struggle against what should be their weakness? Holding KSU to 30 yards rushing should have been a blood bath and then Howard has a career passing day. PK struggles after he gets exactly what he wants.

Maalik Murphy unfucked Duke, works his next miracle at Oregon State
This. I don't know what folks were expecting. MM looked amazing until midway through the second quarter, made some spectacularly poor decisions and melted down. That's what you'd expect from a redshirt freshman with 1 career start. Look at KSU's freshman QB. He threw one pass that probably should have been intercepted and didn't play again. Arch would have had his share of WTF plays had he started. There's a reason coaches avoid playing freshman QBs if at all possible.

Jonathon Brooks is a Bad Mother Fucker
I'm 48 and creakier than I used to be. Every time Brooks gets up after being tackled, he looks like me getting off the floor. I can't tell when he's hurt and when he's just doing his old man standing up impression.

TCU at Texas Tech, 6:00 on FS1
I'd trade their season last year for ours in a heartbeat. So sure, I'm jealous of their season. Just not their coach, team, city, future, etc.

Wasn't this supposed to be Tech's year?

The Steve Sarkisian WTF are you doing questionable playcalling thread........
I recognize that I am biased - I don't believe the head coach should call plays. That said, this gets parroted because Sark's title isn't offensive game planner and play caller. It's head coach. Sark the head coach isn't able to step in a tell Sark the play caller not to do dumb shit like run it 4 times on the goal line.

Jim Harbaugh NO LONGER coaches at Michigan
Harbaugh: "Why did you give me a 30 page transcript of what looks like a cooking show?" Staffer: "Coach, that was Leach walking his QBs through their game plan for tomorrow."

Most Watched B12 Games 2023 Edition
That's more than a 300% increase from their previous game. If they keep this up, every single person in the country will tune into their final game against UCF.

Maalik Murphy unfucked Duke, works his next miracle at Oregon State
I hear what you're saying - it's hard to point to instances where Quinn took over a game. The second half against Alabama is probably the closest, though it's not like Quinn carried the team. A bunch of guys stepped up. And that's the issue - from what I can tell, Sark wants someone to run his system. If everyone does their job, no one needs to be the hero. Sark wants an efficient bus driver rather than superman. And Quinn's been driving the bus pretty well.

I understand what Michigan is accused of doing. I'm also absolutely positive I don't give a shit, regardless of what the rule is.

Fuck Big 12 refs
What does that have to do with whether Holgo called a time out or not?

Fuck Big 12 refs
He didn't need to call a time out - there was injury time out (I think it was Burke).

Coach Contract Questions
A paradigm shift implies that there is a single paradigm, whereas ADs take several approaches. Sometimes with a proven coach (Texas hiring Mack Brown), sometimes an assistant (OU hiring Stoops, Georgia), sometimes it's based on an existing relationship (Dabo at Clemson, Freeman at ND), sometimes a conman needs a soft landing (Jimbo). It's almost always a crap shoot.

Just ask Jimbo - it's always better watching live.

Jimbo's buyout is only 15 or 16 months of their tier 1 and 2 TV rights. No big deal.

It's going to be really awkward when they try to pay someone less to coach then they are paying someone else to not coach.
