You know both things can be true right?

- Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I would like to see 2 starter level IOL plus a tackle for depth/competition. Also need a big time RB, a DB (or 2), LB, and NT. I think WR is ok between what we have returning and the young guys, but if someone like Cam Coleman jumps in you have to go after him.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I don't know the ins and outs of NIL, but it seems like we're not keeping up with the market value for OL. I assume they plan on shifting more of their focus to the portal. Either that or Flood is just a terrible recruiter.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
We also just beat the #3 ranked team. And our OOC loss looks a lot better than theirs. I think we jump Bama if they lose to Auburn.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Ok tough guy. Enjoy the cheez-it bowl. Also, you're wrong.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Doesn't have to be Samford. I'd be good with Cal/ASU/Colorado/Wisconsin/North Carolina/etc.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
With a 9 game conference schedule we'll have 4-5 marquee opponents every year, plus more in the playoffs if we make it. I'd rather play OSU in the playoffs than in August. There's never been more premier matchups than there are now. The NFL exists if you want parity every single week.- Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Unless there's a ton of chaos tomorrow, we most likely aren't getting in. If that's the case, all big OOC games need to be canceled the day after the playoffs are announced.- Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
With the way he's played down the stretch, I just hope he's back next season. Someone would take him in the 1st round.- 2026 RB Jett Walker
He's a #2 RB take. Whatever. It's irrelevant if OL recruiting continues to be a shit show.- 2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
We're in this situation because of Bo Davis' lazy recruiting. Also Justin Wilcox was fired by Cal. We should be trying everything we can to bring him on in some capacity.- Hey PK -- What would you say you do here?
Not beating aggy if the secondary plays like they did today.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
There is a general lack of discipline, focus, and attention to detail that has existed for Sark's entire tenure. It was blatantly apparent against UGA. I don't think an OC fixes that. It's a reflection of Sark's personality.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
This isn't unique to Texas. No AD at any blue blood or near-blue blood program does.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I'm guessing he's referring to the playoff.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
We're talking about resources not talent. Recruiting rankings (imperfect as they may be) and roster pricetag are really the only measures we have of "resources." And our resources indicate that we should be able to compete (and occasionally win) at the highest level. You want to say OSU and UGA have more talent, fine. I actually agree. But it's not because of superior resources. We've had a top 5 recruiting class 5 years in a row, including the #1 class in 2025. We went into Georgia and poached their state's top recruit 2 years in a row. We reportedly have the most expensive roster in the country. The fact that we aren't as talented as OSU/UGA is an indictment on our roster construction, evaluation, and development. All of that begins and ends with Sark.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I wouldn't say we're equally matched. Our OL is hot garbage. But we do have equal, if not better resources, so the product is inexcusable either way.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Sark needs 10 years because that's how long Kirby has been at UGA. It makes perfect sense when you think about it.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
21-10 lead in the 4Q. We hadn't driven the length of the field all game. That onside kick was basically just Kirby telling Sark "I own you bitch."- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I think Cignetti fits the mold as well. A disciplined dickhead. I thought it could be Herman when we hired him, but he only had the dickhead part.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Are all those players still on the roster? I get it takes time to build a program, but not a fucking decade. Sark did it in 3 years, and now he's clearly regressed.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Is your point that we don't have the resources to compete at the highest level? Because recruiting rankings (not everything, but the best barometer we have) and roster pricetag say we should be in the same zip code as OSU and UGA. Their hand me downs being starters for us points to a systemic evaluation/development problem, not a recruiting/resource problem.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
There's not some massive gap between us and OSU/UGA in recruiting. We're consistently top 5 and had the #1 class last year. We also (allegedly) have the most expensive roster in the country. Point being, we have the resources to win at least some of these games. If you want to argue that our talent level isn't actually what the recruiting rankings say it is, then we have a problem with evaluation and development. Either way Sark is falling short.- Our guys are smiling and taking pics on the field
When you own someone like he owns Sark, you can say whatever the fuck you want. - Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
