2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
We need a play calling OC, an OL coach, a QB coach, and a ST coordinator. This offense completely blows. Sark has messed up. He'll get a full cycle to get it fixed but I'd imagine there are some donors wondering where the money went.

2025 Game Week 5: Texas at Florida
Just feels like a bad spot for Florida. Theyre leaking oil and beat up. We've been getting bad press after tripping out of the gate a bit. Had a chance to get healthy, preach a chip onto our shoulder, and basically start a brand new season. Solid game here changes the narrative and Im sure the coaches know we need it heading into OU. No way to not be worried about the OL, but even there I gotta wonder if we are actually this bad or just had poor effort in games we werent worried about losing. Of course there's one possibility out there that I think is in the back of all of our minds, we just wont bring that up.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
Texas is a southern state, a southwestern state, and a plains state. Right now we are in the southern state version of our conference affiliation. Big 12 was the plains affiliation and we did heavy flirting with the PAC to be a southwestern member. Northern Mexico/South Texas is its own region. I'm sure if they were connected to a major football conference we wouldve done plenty of flirting with them too.

34-17. We dominate time of possession and they score a trash time td in 4th Q. Arch has an ok game, running game shows improvement. Defense looks dominant.

Yea seems spot on. Dont know much about Napier and now that I think about it I think Im feeling bad for him because I was told one time that hes a good dude. For all I actually know hes not. With Herman he went off the reservation before he even started with us. Just an epic dipshit.

Gerry mentioned if it were him calling the shots at UF, he would throw 15m a year at Marcus Freeman.

I kind of feel bad for Napier. He seems like hes completely in over his head.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
I still believe this team has its best football in front of them and I think Texas can sneak into the playoff on the back of a very good defense. Im not expecting a SEC or national championship. At this point I'm hoping to get the Arch train fully on the tracks and ready for a big campaign next year. Also, I think our schedule sets up well for us this season and I think its possible for us to make the playoff at 9-3.

Maybe Stroh could contribute at an ok level with more time, I don't know. I do know he's not good enough today to play OL for even a decent unit. He simply isn't able to do it and I worry he's the canary in the coal mine for our whole offense, because you can't have a link that weak in your OL and win a championship. The fact he's still starting makes me worry he's our best option which right now would only mean we simply arent good enough.

This defense looks exactly like my 3rd graders 7 on 7 defense. I cant stop seeing it.

This is a great game. What an insane catch. Parsons just got his moment. Dak completely balling out.

This is a man. He's over 40. He's a man.
Will be really interesting to see what he does from here. He’s never been anything but an Oklahoma country boy and has never shown interest in moving away. Heard he’s been a huge pain in the ass for years there but he got results. Getting to take the rest of the season off in probably what he needs.

Its not exactly salacious stuff. 21 year old takes his eye off the ball against weak competition so he can party with his brother and friends and chase some skirt before buckling down for a long hard stretch of conference play. I hope this doesnt get leaked to tmz.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
I really like the setup for this Florida game. Sark can preach an aggressive mentality about going into a major SEC road destination and putting a program in the grave. Our defense is a huge problem for them, and our offense has the bye week to regroup, get healthy, leave the lackluster performances behind and start a new campaign. The SHSU game was a much needed jerkoff session to clear out some blue balls. UF is ripe for a blowout loss in my opinion, the writing is on the wall there and that is a team thats ready to lay down. I felt the same way about them last season, this feels like a bad spot for them. Obviously it all rests on which version of Arch we get. I dont know what to make of his struggles besides they are clearly mental. Ive heard rumors about some of his extracurricular activities along the lines of he put in a lot of work getting ready for Ohio State and saw this part of the schedule as an opportunity to relax a bit before the grind of SEC play, and that he overdid it and it bit him in the ass. One point that was brought up to me was his Grandfather, Uncles, and Dad were all big partiers in school. Its part of why Arch chose Texas, and his brother is at the center of a very active party scene. The rumor I heard was Arch noticeably started showing up to the fraternity house right after Ohio State. Dont know if its true but thats what some fraternity members are telling their parents. The whole thing could be typical dipshit college kid mega fan bs, but it does make some logical sense to me. Sell out for Ohio State, then sow some oats before the bye week and get back to grind mode for the rest of the season.

Charlie Kirk Assassinated [Shooter in custody]
I read that as he was worried about retrieving the gun not just to get the evidence back but because it was such a big gift from his grandfather that it would be super suspicious if he couldnt show them it was in his possession. He still thought he was going to get away with it but then his Dad (and other family) wanted confirmation he had the gun.

Any idea if they're doing a drone show for SHSU? Taking the kiddos.

Charlie Kirk Assassinated [Shooter in custody]
He stuck it in his pant leg and up into a backpack. He acted like he had a limp and limped all the way through a neighborhood, into the campus, into the building and up on the roof. There was a stairway that led directly onto the roof. The whole thing is caught on cameras. He climbs over this small wall next to the public roof area and hides for about 20 minutes where he assembles something with the gun, and then goes to his perch and makes the shot. Then he runs across the giant roof area to the corner farthest away from where Kirk was, throws the gun down to the grass, jumps down, and then walked over to a wooded area across the street where he dumped the gun. Since it was caught on cameras they immediately searched the wooded areas because they saw him walk in there. This video does a good walkthrough. The guy is a bit of a dildo but the walkthrough makes sense if you watch all the camera videos. For me, its very strange how easy it is to get up on the roof and get down from it. Its tailor made for a snipers position. Not a difficult maneuver and certainly wouldnt require a bunch of extensive training or anything. The main question for me is how he got the idea to use the roof. Could be as simple as he had been up there before and then heard where Kirk would be setting up and realized he could likely pull it off without having to do anything too complicated.

I agree its very likely simple, but it doesn't feel that random to me. The expectations for the guy are through the roof, there's not any wiggle room in there. Its gotten to him.

Milwee was a big part of that recruitment and a relationship got formed between him and the Mannings. At least at one point they were big fans of his. Wonder where things stand now.

Why is the younger generation so intolerant?
Society is breaking apart at the seams before they have any control over any of it, and they're mad/worried that they're not even going to get to participate in their own version of America before the whole thing descends into madness. And angry young people are intolerant in many ways.

The groyper community is filled with young disaffected men who have no real political beliefs and tilt towards nihilism, they're just looking for a group that is just as miserable as them, and find humor in violence and extremely irreverent ideas. I think the majority of the groypers are Fuentes disciples and take to heart what he says, but theres a significant portion of them who just want to see the world burn because they are so deeply unhappy. If you grow up in a conservative household and tilt towards nihilism and were born in a certain timeframe, theres a decent chance you're super online and end up being a "groyper".
