Honestly, the fact that we had to beat tech on a miracle comeback and onside recovery may be more damning than any of the losses. Tech just beat Kansas by 3.

Urban Meyer is trending on Twitter, unsurprisingly.

I hear you, but very few first choices are in this category. It doesn't mean that our second or third choices would be bad, but first choice here is as close to a sure thing as you'll ever see.

It's not the university's money. Why are the optics bad? Rich guys who care about football can spend their money where they like. If they want to spend it on this, should we say no?

Top 20 *Texas recruits. One out of the top 20 overall wouldn't be that bad. One out of the top in Texas, when we're fucking Texas? Yes, that's fireable.

My brother and I have been debating this. This is the part that scares me a bit about the um situation. Most coaches, if rumors come up tying them to a job, will look to kill the speculation quickly. Sometimes they're even lying, but they generally try to squash the conversation until it's official. Problem is, Urban currently has no team. He doesn't really need to address the rumors. If he has turned us down, cdc may have asked that he doesn't address them, given that will increase the pressure on our search. That's why I'm basically assuming it's good news this weekend or I'm going to stop following the search until someone is announced. If Urban says no, we might hear nothing until the new coach is announced. That could be weeks, or longer. After signing day passes, there's no urgency other than fan impatience. I hope it doesn't come to that, but if it does I won't be around for the ride.

Would we expect him to say "this is a nice ending for my last trip to kansas since I'll be fired tomorrow?"

The guys who are confident it's happening have been adamant about this weekend. This game is meaningless. Herman had to make the ccg and didn't. It could justifiably be today based on that.

Yeah, I take this as either really bad or really good. Either it means their troll job is done, or it means he's coming. Every time I try to convince myself they're trolling, I remember that I looked back and at least Larry has been pro Texas for years. If this is a troll, it's a long job and I respect the effort.

Yep. If we were just bitching about conference titles and playoffs, ok fair criticism. Tom is going to be fired because of failure to dominate schools like Baylor, tcu, and iowa state. If Herbie thinks his precious buckeyes would allow a coach to continually struggle with rutgers and illinois and not get fired...

What I wouldn't give for cdc to use this line in the introductory press conference.

From the sec, but his "best friend" Spencer Tillman is a sooner and they clearly bond over their distain for Texas.

Wait...are you saying Tim Brando is a loudmouthed, blustering little bitch who loves to talk shit but folds up like a lawn chair and hides when anyone confronts him? It's almost like he's a sooner fan.

The king has no clothes. Herman was around Urban long enough to pick up the visible symptoms of a successful coach, but that's all he picked up. There's nothing behind the sound bytes. He's an average coach with an elite coach facade.

Please let there be a Urban/Herman pre game interview.

Larry and his merry band of twitter misfits are about to go down as either the strangest inside sources or greatest trolls of all time.

- COVID-19 vaccine discussion
My BIL is not all that smart about covid, and has been in the "I'm going to live my life and enjoy my freedom" boat from day 1. No masks, btw. His latest outburst is that getting the vaccine is pretty much pointless bc you're only immune for 6 months and unless everyone continues getting revaccinated that frequently you'll still have plenty of contagious and vulnerable people running around. I have read that antibodies may only last 6 months or so, but I have no idea if his claim about the vaccine is true or not. I'd still get it either way, just curious if he's actually correct here or talking out of his ass as he often is.- Urban Meyer or bust
Not sure if you're being serious, but the pauly shore thing is absolutely a son in law reference.- Urban Meyer or bust
Love to see el chico represented here. There was one in the mall in my hometown that we would go to growing up. Just a few years ago, I found out that a couple of guys I know are in the founding family. Really nice people. They tried to do a new place a few years back but it didn't seem to stick and closed fairly quickly. Still, it was cool to read up on the family history after realizing it was their grandparents/parents place I went to as a kid.- Urban Meyer or bust
Yeah, I'm sure there are rumors among recruits, but cdc sure as hell is not giving this info to high school students and asking them pretty please not to post it in the group chat.- Urban Meyer or bust
Could be. Given parts of it are clearly about Vegas, I just assumed it meant playing cards.- Urban Meyer or bust
I don't take it as hedging so much as a tweet not specifically about our search.- Urban Meyer or bust
I'm on the train until Sunday. We go to Monday with no news, I'm checking out until something is official.- Urban Meyer or bust
Here's my best attempt at squid's latest. Does feel like a timeline of a trip this week. Doesn't feel super informative on our situation, even considering my gaps in interpretation here. [emoji1653] - squid = him [emoji445][emoji537] - home of music? Austin? [emoji928][emoji3575][emoji929] - Flight [emoji466]️ - Played golf [emoji482] - drank [emoji257][emoji3046] - definitely rose bowl [emoji869] - hook'em, maybe with ut people? [emoji604] [emoji903] [emoji488] - drove to the mountains and ate [emoji604][emoji906][emoji620] - drove to Vegas [emoji1629][emoji3523][emoji2113][emoji2148][emoji445][emoji482] - I've got nothing here [emoji620][emoji553] - Cesar's palace, maybe? [emoji483][emoji488][emoji895][emoji1640][emoji2961] - ate and drank till he's sick [emoji895][emoji488][emoji1640][emoji2148][emoji453][emoji506][emoji482][emoji377][emoji874][emoji482][emoji483][emoji763][emoji453][emoji482][emoji620][emoji541][emoji482][emoji483][emoji453]- feels like maybe random Vegas shenanigans? Cards, drinks, food, girls, money, and a hospital? I don't know. [emoji928][emoji927][emoji929][emoji537][emoji445][emoji1653] - he flies back to the home of music, presumably Austin. - COVID-19 vaccine discussion
