Tom "the turtle" Herman [Lame Duck or greatest 5d chess player ever?]
Doesn't matter when he's fired. However, behind the scenes, we absolutely need to be talking to Meyer and figuring out what the number is to get him plus whatever staff he wants.

Surly Official 2020 TX vs OU Sucks: 11AM on FOX [FUCK OU]
After the past decade, I think we all know it doesn't matter what recruit we get. The coaching isn't going to be good enough under late era Mack, Charlie, or the thief.

Sam Ehlinger
I like Sam. He loves this university like we all do and does give a shit. However, the way he's playing this year is how he always is and always will be. He is extremely streaky on drives, with them either looking incredible or wtf moments. He's not a player to win a NC or Heisman, but he's certainly a good player and the best QB we've had since Colt. However, this coaching staff is the one that is wasting him. A player like Sam should win at least one Big XII championship. With that fucking thief Herman, we've wasted all four opportunities for him.

There's no way that Herman survives this, right? 1-4 against OU, has a senior laden team that he recruited. This will tell what do the higher ups actually think about football. If they don't fire him this year, we know that football will never really be back as two bad recruiting classes (this year + transition) will give the next coach little to work with.

He is who he always has been. Very streaky QB with moments that make you ponder how is he a starter and moments that you remember why he is.

Sam's ball placement is really disappointing for senior.

Texas/ou game
Ingram should be benched and honestly shifted to 3rd string. He’s not reliable at the thing that matters most as a RB.

Let's take a page out of the Brits and put Meyer and CDC down for a round of golf at the UT golf course.

He's ready to lead Texas
Matt Leinart went on the Ryen Rusillo show and talked about whether he thought Urban would take another job (starts ~ 37:30) https://open.spotify.com/episode/3fOMbd8lGA6Y2sqAWt19tZ He doesn't think he is going to go back to coaching based on his conversations with him, but the reasons seem a bit shakey for a college coach (loves spending time with family, cyst, good vibes with the Fox crew).

Texas Recruiting Notes 2021
He's been shakey for awhile after his girlfriend went to OU on a softball scholarship Still, the recruiting is faltering, so hopefully this is a wake-up call to not give Mensa even more rope to hang the program with

National media in general are ripping us to shreds. Bruce Feldman yesterday clearly wanted to say Herman was a fraud during his Sunday recap show but just instead talked about how Texas isn't there. The podcast Athlon puts out pretty much laid out the case for why Herman should be fired by essentially saying Herman's given a filet mignon and delivering a well-done, burnt steak. If we lose on Saturday, I'd imagine every podcast will have their "Texas isn't back, Herman isn't it" segment and just forget about us for the rest of the season.

Tom Herman's OU week press conference 10/5, Noon
I wish someone would directly ask him about the same playcalls versus ISU and TCU. That is directly on him as it's under two different OCs.

Big XII Coaches' Almost Midseason Rankings
Campbell is way too low imo. He's done a great job developing talent at ISU and fielding some great defenses. He does have a few bonehead games here and there, but he does fantastic at punching above his weight. Should be above both Kleinman and Brown.

He's ready to lead Texas
Pretty sure our fanbase would actually answer our "super duper final alumni verification" if it meant we were getting rid of Herman.

To back up your first observation, we have the most losses to unranked teams as a ranked team, so yup.

We are also 2-12 when trailing at the half under Herman.

Texas opens as a 16 point favorite v TCU
We gave him his best game last year, and after the game against Tech, hard to think that it won't be a repeat.

S&P+ rankings: Overperformance or overcorrection?
I enjoy how UTEP throttled ULM on the road (outgained them by 300 yards, held them to 0-11 on 3rd down whereas went 11-17 on 3rd down, TO margin was equal), and the model didn't move them up (still bottom of the teams currently playing behind ULM). "It's a predictive model", blah, blah, but that's really surprising, especially in a part of the rankings where you would expect to see a bit more movement.
-
Hey, Tim and Spencer...
I don't know how we haven't used any of our perceived power to get Brando off of Texas games. He's a complete homer for whatever team we are playing, and it's been the case for years. Them focusing on the PI for 30 minutes while ignoring all of Tech's missed penalties is a joke. Fuck 'em.

Did we hire Charlie Strong to coach special teams? Jesus

Microsoft buys Zenimax Media for 7.5 billion
Also, perfect timing for this news. Wasn't going to get a Series X at launch, but now, I am definitely pre-ordering tomorrow.

The Boys Season 2
Yeah, though it is interesting to see where she ends up this season. I was expecting her head to explode at some point during that episode. I wonder if Stormfront goes back to the Nazi beginning of Vought as well. Her face being hidden in the flashback has to mean something as well.

Fucking fires everywhere.
Growing up in El Paso, I was used to the fires from Mexico, but it is pretty surreal seeing them come in. Here's the change in just 24 hours in Fort Collins. Hope y'all on the west coast get a reprieve shortly. The smoke from these fires are absolutely miserable.

Blastfurnace 2020: The Forcefield strikes back
And there's the Cameron Peak fire which went from 24k acres to 36k acres overnight Saturday and blanketed Denver in smoke. Combine that with the smoke from California at the high altitudes and the heat, and it's completely miserable again. Can't believe I am saying this, but I am excited for this 6 inches of snow we are getting tomorrow.

2020-21 Winter weather; bring it on
They are forecasting 4 in of snow in Denver, a foot along the front range. The Rockies definitely make life interesting.
