It's almost as if the transitive property doesn't apply to football.

I've always thought the way he ran the route looked like he thought there was 0 chance the ball was going to be thrown his way.

Coach Sark Press Conference 11.18 - 11:30am LHN
It was a stupid question anyway, considering there's a chance this isn't anyone's last game at DKR.

Alabama is far more likely to lose both these games than they are to win them both.

Texas Baseball 2025 - Your SEC regular season champions!!
We may want to poach some, but it sounds like they have all banded together with the "Fuck Schloss, we're not going anywhere" mindset. Several of them have made social media posts to that tune.

[Surly Official Firing Squad] David Pierce Has Left The Building - FIRED
I love it. I'll admit he wasn't on my wish list, but I think that was mainly because I didn't even see him as a viable option. Due to his recent success with building a program from nothing into a national champion in 3 years, I didn't think he'd even be interested in leaving ASU. I've obviously always known him as "the coach that created the greatest swimmer of all time", but I never really knew much more about his coaching style. Once the hire was announced, I dug into videos, podcasts, interviews, etc. to learn more about how he runs a team, and I was fired up with what I saw. Once the initial shock wore off, I was left firmly believing that CDC made the best possible hire for a vacancy that was left by the greatest to ever do it. I realized the other names on my wish list ultimately made no sense compared to someone with a resume like Bowman. With all that being said: I don't think we can rule out anyone for the baseball job, even if it's whoever wins it all in Omaha next week.

[Surly Official Firing Squad] David Pierce Has Left The Building - FIRED
I recently learned firsthand to never believe any rumors about Texas coaching hires while CDC is the AD, no matter how many people claim to have a "reliable inside source". Explanation: I swam for Texas, and one of my teammates (who was one of my groomsmen in my wedding) is now married to CDC's personal assistant. During the UT swim program's recent head coach hiring process, I figured I was in position to get all the inside info and/or leaks before the official announcement was made. I read lots of "insider source" rumors on various college swimming message boards, but each time I checked with my buddy his response was basically "I haven't heard a single word about any of it. I wouldn't risk my wife's job by telling you the name if I knew it, but I swear I don't even know the name". And sure enough, once the official announcement was made (Bowman) was not one of the 2-3 names I had been hearing from those "insider source" rumors. The moral of the story: if CDC's was able to keep the name of the new swim coach from leaking through his personal assistant who is married to an ex UT swimmer, I trust his abilities to make other hires without leaking info as well. This actually makes me sad, because I used to love reading into the rumors and getting fired up, but that fairy tale is over for me. On the flip side of that: the fact that CDC was able to hire a swim coach 2 days after he won a national championship for another school gives me great confidence that he's not going to swing and miss on this hire. I agree with all that have said the silence thus far is a great sign. He'll make the announcement once he has his guy, so I tend to agree that his guy is probably in Omaha.

Swimming and Diving National Champs
Not sure if you're being serious or sarcastic, but I'll take the bait on this just in case you're serious. Being a D1 college swim coach is an extremely stressful job. There's a significant amount of science that goes into creating a swimming training program, and the catch is there's no such thing as a "one-size fits all" program for college swimmers (especially males). You've got to plan out the entire year in advance in terms of how quickly you ramp up to your most intense training period, then how long you stay at that intense period, and then how quickly you back off the intensity as you head into the big meets. Then you have to take that plan and tweak it slightly for 30ish individuals every single year. It takes a special mind to be able to put all of that together and coach a successful team, and once you reach the level where you're expected to deliver national championships on a regular basis (i.e. Bowman at Texas), the stress levels are very high.

I thought he was a Georgia lock. Did I miss something? Would love it if we got him.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
We will never be America’s team. If all those things you mentioned come to fruition (which I believe they will), we will be despised by the entire country. But I’m here for it. Embrace the hate baby!

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
To me, it really looks like AD was not expecting the ball to be thrown his way. The way he turned looked like an "oh shit!" moment where he just panicked and reacted too late to the ball.

This has to mean Quinn has decided he’s coming back, correct?

Week 14, 2023, Texas v Washington, College Football Playoff Edition
It wasn’t even about when it was called. It was about WHERE it was called. Tie game and you risk handing your opponent the ball in FG range? Ballsy is an understatement.

Texas vs oSu - Big XII Championship - Pre-game Chatter
Number 1 seed gets to choose what jerseys they wear, and I'm assuming we chose white because of the success we've had in those jerseys this year (and past years for that matter). Remember back in '18 when OU was the one seed; they chose to wear those ugly ass cream colored alternate uniforms instead of their home jerseys because they didn't want us to be able to wear the Storm Troopers.

Eleven win Steve!
Crazy to think we have a legitimate shot at 14 wins this season, which would give us two “7-win Steves” in one year 😂.

Texas vs iowa state - 7pm on Fox
This is false. The committee already set precedent in 2018 when they left undefeated UCF out of the playoff after McKenzie Milton tore his ACL in the final regular season game. I think they'll do the same to FSU this year.
