Transfer Cycle 2024-2025 - Stop Being Poor
Economics? If I had the financial wherewithal to buy Sarkisian the roster he wanted to win the national championship, it would be done. And not for economic reasons.

Well, yes, it would particularly stupid for him, but I’m fine with the general principle that even if Texas didn’t have a competitive advantage I wouldn’t want these buffoons meddling with one of the dwindling sources of entertainment in my life.

In the spirit of bipartisanship, Blumenthal can fuck right off, too. I really don’t want to see how these guys “solve” the “problem.”

Just fucking leave it alone, please. I’ve learned not to expect much, but in the name of all that’s holy, can we please, please not have these clowns “fix” college football. Please.

I get that it’s not nearly as fun as throwing out uninformed bullshit on a message board, but if CactusThomas, or whoever, really wanted an answer he could listen to Sarkisian’s interviews and the players’ interviews in which his particular question has been answered over and over and over. As far as a “little bump in the road,” Texas fucked away the OU game last season. Then came together to win out to get into the conference championship game and manhandled Oklahoma State. And were one play from a national title game. And Texas played very poorly against UGA in Austin — not as bad as the score indicated, but poorly — then ran the SEC gauntlet to play for a title. Then Texas fucked away the SEC title game — my kingdom for a fumble recovery or a fucking field goal — then won two playoff games to be in the last four, again. On the other hand, our maroon conference mates exploded in mid-air and crashed to the ground in pieces after having the inside track to their first conference championship game this century. But, you know, what do we really know?

Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
Fair. But the odds were against those guys — and Meyer and whoever else — too. Is it more likely that he’s going to implode than become legendary? Sure. Hell, that’s the way to bet. But that strikes me as more a question of what’s probable in the abstract than whether what he’s done will continue at a trajectory that makes him elite. Absent inherent personality flaws that are a ticking time bomb, I’d say it’s unlikely but still well on the table.

What kind of evidence could you look at and say, “Hey, here’s a difference”?

He may well be. Or he may not be. Do you know that he is? Predicting the future is difficult. One thing is certain, though, and that’s that he hasn’t yet displayed bitchassness tendencies like Campbell.

Exactly. Especially with the way those kinds of players have been automatically getting better at Texas as they get older.

“I see us a high tier 2…” I see you as a perpetual slightly above .500 conference team, wherever you go and whatever the conference. I wonder who’s right. Or maybe “high tier 2” means “a little better than a coin flip,” but I don’t think so.- Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
I get the appeal of more money but at some point a lot of money, even if more is available, is enough, especially if other factors are in favor.- Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
Have the “our loss to ND is better than tu’s losses to UGA” posts started yet?- Transfer Cycle 2024-2025 - Stop Being Poor
I understand the point and it almost assuredly works out that way. However, “how much money do you think you’ll make for yourself being next year’s Golden getting throws from Manning” can’t be entirely unpersuasive.- Transfer Cycle 2024-2025 - Stop Being Poor
I remember watching videos of Cook working out with Evan Stewart. Who’d have thought Stewart would turn out to be the more stable of the two?- Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
The fact that Liucci checks bags for a game trip to Las Vegas is more incredible than his sports takes.- Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
Yeah, I get that $25K is probably nothing to someone who makes what he makes, but if I were actually trying to win, win, I wouldn’t sit down without at least 1000 units. If he’s not trying to win, win — and looking at the way he executes a strategy and builds a team and staff, he probably isn’t trying to win anything — then the objective is likely just to play as long as he can before he runs out of time, so why not play at a lower stakes table?- Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
I hope they all think like Teslag. That Sarkisian got Texas into the playoffs with bought players and not by building a program and developing players. I especially hope they avert their eyes from the Texas OL and DL.- Texas A&M Recruiting 2025: The Land of Melk & No Money
Any posts about 1977 and ND really should be spoilered. Fucking Terry Eurick. This is such bullshit.- Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
Check me if I’m wrong Sandy, but OU and A&M have both suffered soul-crushing last second bowl losses and they both get to spend the rest of the year being reminded that Texas is in the playoffs.- Depression, OCD, and whatever else ails you between the ears
Thank you. I cut it out of the original post, but a huge chunk of why I’m on this side of the dirt is the effect not being so would have had on others. There are still a shit ton of “I don’t want to be here” thoughts. And then our six year old niece will give me a drawing she made of us so I can “look at her when she’s not around” and maybe there are still some reasons to be here. Two things, one serious and one not so much have helped. Suicide doesn’t stop the pain, it just transfers it. Don’t drive drunk. If you don’t make it home, your dogs will never know why you didn’t come home. Thanks again.- Depression, OCD, and whatever else ails you between the ears
In a less shitty world, I’d be sitting at the kitchen table talking to the best woman I’ve ever known while she hand washed the Christmas china. We’d be talking about our gifts, what we think others thought of what we got for them, and what she was going to return. She was very particular. Talking about how lucky we are. And how glad she is that Christmas is over. Then we’d go lie down together and watch whatever show we were into at the moment. She’d say “Goodnight, biscuit, I love you” and we’d crash after a long day. In this shitty world, she’s ashes on my fucking mantel. Her mother is out of town because she couldn’t stand to be home without her daughter in this world on this day. And I’m not entirely sure right now that I’m on the right side of the dirt. Is this all there is now? Spending time with women who I wouldn’t give the time of day if she were alive? A life of “less than” until my heart has the good sense to stop working? It’s not a very compelling future. This fucking sucks. - Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
