It hasn’t just taken a step back, it’s cratered and it isn’t exactly recovering 8 games into the season. (I honestly didn’t think I needed to even delve that deeply into the “this OL is playing like shit” discussion).

 

Username checks out, by the way.

The OL played a massive role in losing to Georgia and Ohio state last year, I don’t think they were elite or even above average as a unit. Take a step back from average and you’re bad. That was my point. Carry on.

They were fantastic pass blockers. Ass run blockers just as this one but this one is also ass pass blockers. 
 

 

Im sure someone will come and say but what about the Aggie game!!!!!

Klatt said he and Day would be most ready for NFL.  Cowherd said he’d leave for Buffalo if that job was available 

 

Klatt also said LSU was a top 3 job but we were the best job

LSU is not a top 3 job lol. 

I love Klatt, but LSU is behind Texas, Michigan, Ohio State, Florida, USC, Oregon, Florida State, and Notre Dame.

They apparently got a lot of money and great recruiting base.   Three coaches before bk won it all there

So, it seems to me unlikely that Sark is going "AWOL" to drink.  It would inevitably evidence itself in other ways.

Exactly! For example, if we were to barely be able to move the ball against UTEP, then nearly shit the bed against the two worst teams in the SEC, needing a miracle OT to win those games, largely due to the offense - which he is in charge of - running nonsensical gameplans and the players looking unprepared. That would be additional supporting evidence that Sark had gone AWOL.

Either we are the only institution that has a “wives problem” or other schools keep that shit in-house pretty well (or they don’t have them).

but I don’t think Herman would’ve ever let us have such an absolute dogshit O-line like the one we have in Year 5 of Sark.

Man, you were doing SO WELL up until this point. 

Have you forgotten the complete garbage our OL was during Herman? Even this year's mess is an improvement over that.

Yeah like wtf,  Herman's trench recruiting sucked ass.  All of our highly rated classes were mostly built on the backs of highly ranked skill players.  But the big uglies? Nope.

Yes we’ve been hearing this forever.

And yet $54 million buyout…done.

And ironically, while the overall lines weren't that good, he somehow lucked into four OTs that played in the NFL (three that are still playing).

  1. Williams
  2. Cosmi
  3. Anderson
  4. Jones

Granted, he only recruited two to Texas out of high school (Cosmi and Jones).

True, and that's fair, but the school itself doesn't have a "a lot of money". Your own governor doesn't come out and have to tell the public they aren't using school funds to buy out their fired coach if they have a lot of money. They really did embezzele a lot of money from a foundation that supports a children's hospital, hence why it's a joke. 

And yeah, 3 titles are great, but Nick Saban won their first one since 1958, who we now know is practically a football god, Miles lucked into his in year 3 with Saban's now defensive upperclassmen, as well as some extremely questionable rankings at the end of the year, leaving a 1-loss Kansas and a 12-0 Hawaii out of a title shot. USC should have been the opponent against Ohio State in 2007, but it is what it is. Then it took 12 years for another, which was luck, great recruiting with 2 of them being the best at their position in JaMarr Chase and Justin Jefferson, and Joe Burrow, who isn't a scrub. All of those titles were before legal NIL, and now that it's been introduced, look where they are now? They aren't Bama or even Georgia when it comes to winning consistently. Before Saban they were lucky if they even sniffed 7-8 wins. They were worse than aggy has been. Their run looks to be over unless they just nail it out of the park with hiring. They already failed with Kelly, and now they have to compete with Florida and Penn State. That's gonna be tough sledding for them.

They got the money by not hiring janitors. It's well documented, as you can see in the tweet exchange between Joe Burrow and his professor at LSU.

I admittedly don’t track OL’s year to year. Is it common to lose 3 starters, including a dominant 3 year starter all American LT, and not take a step back? 

Taking a step back is one thing but falling off the ladder and landing at the basement is entirely another

Is anything happening in this thread as of late? Have there been any pledges of fists up butts, nudes being posted? Anything at all?

I feel like Cosmi was a low rated 3 star that was a chuckles recruit and Herman couldn’t fuck it up. I might be misremembering. Jones I think is his only wire to wire high school recruit OT that was drafted.

Nah, Cosmi was c/o 2017 out of high school. Herman flipped him from Houston and signed him. 

Williams was a Chuckles recruit. 

Jones wasn’t wire to wire for Herman. He had his best and final season in 2022 in Sark’s second year.

Isn't Jones why we all thought Flood was a godsend?

What if Sark really did put his name out for NFL jobs and the reason is he knows Arch isnt the best QB in the room right now but the NIL dollars / people paying them wont let him play anyone else.  Guess we'll know if Caldwell plays this week and lights it up.

Yeah Cosmi was one of the few recruits Herman added to his transition class I think. He was the reason I thought Herman might produce good OL.

I was even more optimistic about Flood, so at this point I will just assume Texas OL sucking is always the norm except for a blip here and there. Feels like most years it's the weakest unit on the team.

How often do you have to clean your tinfoil hat in order to keep it from causing your scalp to itch?

#2489
What if Flood is actually good at coaching and our players are just not strong and/or suck?

Because they don’t even know who to block?

We really need to start increasing recruiting out of state on the O line. Like Polynesians in the West Coast, Wisconsin hogs, and athletic SE US guys. Texas spread and 7 on 7 fucked up a lot of the talent here.
#2494

If anyone caught the postgame Craig Way interview with Sark, he closed by saying, “I’m gonna put my son on my knee and watch those late games.” Anyone interested in over-analyzing that statement?

Kinda depends on which son, right?

Man, this guy needs to read this thread if he thinks Sark is considered a top 5 coach with our fanbase 

Steve Sarkisian:5 years at TexasTook over a 7–3 team with deep NIL pockets45–19 overall record→ “Top-5 coach”Josh Heupel:5 years at TennesseeTook over a 3–7 team with scholarship limitations43–18 overall record→ “Not good enough”
