It was more like “if this fucking shithead loses to Tech also, we’re ready”. He didn’t. They didn’t. So it's more that losing to tech would've triggered mass hysteria, and failing to lose to Tech thus failed to trigger the necessary rage. I'll buy that for a dollar. Like how the 1996 Big XII title game bought Mackovic one more year...

Malzahn 3. Franklin 4. Patterson 5. Campbell All would be HUGE upgrades over Mensa Your list sucks with the exception of 4

He's like bizarro Ferris Bueller- the sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all despise him. They think he's an arrogant cunt.
December 2, 20196 yr Wonder if Harrell is the new OC, if Whittington gets moved to WR..Will need as many athletes as possible and having so many backs in an air raid offense seems like a bit of a waste.

December 2, 20196 yr As i've stated elsewhere i'm down with Harrell, Lashlee or Morris. If they are looking at Steele my first reaction is he is not my first choice. He's not a head coach so i won't hold those years against him. That said he wasn't great at Clemson and he's been ok at Auburn but what does he know about B12 offenses? Don't say Baylor. He's been gone for so long and he's older so i don't know if he has what it takes to adapt to the current offenses. I suppose we could do worse but it's not exactly a rising star hire.

Not defending Steele one way or the other. My point will be that we don't need a rising star. We need someone to come in and fix this shit and fix it right now.
December 2, 20196 yr What DC has truly figured out how to stop big 12 offenses? Just bring in someone who preaches physicality, allows our athletic DB’s to play press man coverage, and allows our DL to rush the QB and we will be light years better than this year and should have plenty of offense to win every game on the schedule.

December 2, 20196 yr What's fucking fantastic about LSU is their system needs about $1billion in repairs and they're refurbishing locker rooms and giving coordinators raises. They're going to pay Brady whatever is needed. It won't stop until some kind of #metoo type expose is created. Oh, and Epstein didn't kill himself.

December 2, 20196 yr Man, CTJ just comes in here and shits on everyone's day. LOL. Seriously though, I was all thinking Herman nutted up, did the right thing, and dropped the dead weight. Then I read CTJ's post and I am disappoint.

Dude has had very good defenses for a while... as to if he is a good match because of cultural reasons, conference reasons or anything else - that is one thing. but he has a book of work as a DC that is pretty damn good...

We have to have a TE for Herman’s shit to work though and with more defenses employing Tampa 2 or the reverse in the Big 12 I’m wondering if he’s gonna continue in the same vein that got him on Meyer’s staff or attempt some new shit.
