  1. I’m pretty sure the majority of posters on this board should not lump themselves in with guys they can run a WNBA team off the court. Please stop kidding yourself.
  2. It isn’t fan fiction if that is what happened in reality. I see some of you have trouble accepting what happened vs what you thought should happen. I don’t know what to tell you dude. We brought in OL, at the end of the day this is what we ended up with. Should it be considered a failure yes, can I say the staff didn’t try, no.
  3. Next time understand the full context before replying.
  4. So all the guys we targeted and offered bags of money to didn’t want to come here and all the ones we didn’t target all wanted to come here, because posters on Surly say that is so, got it. Recruiting fan fiction never fails to give me a chuckle. And all this is ignoring guys that visited and their names were never released. But since we didn’t get the guys to satisfy Surly the staff didn’t try.
  5. I guess some of you are going to struggle with this every year. Just because the team may have a need doesn’t automatically mean it will be possible to resolve via the transfer portal for a myriad of reasons, some on display this cycle. Some of you act as if they didn’t even try, they tried and failed. It is what it is, now they have to figure out how to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.
  6. This board’s take that we were going to get the necessary OL that we needed, well just because we are Texas, always seemed like extreme aspirations to me. But even for the OL transfers we bring in Flood still has to coach them up. And I’m of the opinion that Flood should have been fired a day after the Citrus bowl. So it’s not like I’m a fan of that guy.
  7. Just a year or 2 ago this board was praising this staff ability to develop. Now development isn’t even considered a possibility. Players ability/skill doesn’t have to be stuck in time.
  8. Not defending the staff but at some point high school recruits have to come into play. If we don’t have one guy that can play OG out of the list of available players we recruited out of high school then that is where the massive failure lies.
  9. “Emotionally invested” man some of you are some real fucking losers. This should be nothing more than entertainment. Now you dweebs are going to flood recruiting threads crying about not being able to get attached to a bunch of teenage boys.
  10. So would most other coaches. Why are we acting like that is some sort of anomaly exclusive to Sark? We get it Sark isn’t a top 3 coach.
  11. A coach has better results when he has better players on his team?! More news at 11. Most of the top college coaches have had the best players on their team year in and out. What does NIL have to do with coaching acumen? Are we saying Sark wouldn’t be able to recruit at this level without NIL. That makes more sense.
  12. Cignetti is obviously a hell of a coach. I’m interested to see if he can sustain this at Indiana. This year they struck gold with Mendoza and all those veteran players. People are also conveniently forgetting that team was the biggest of pretenders last year.
  13. Why wouldn’t you want one of our best OL on the field as part of the best 5. He can play OG and swing to T if that becomes necessary.
