November 16Nov 16 Author Arch looks like the only player crestfallen about the whole thing. I'm thinking Sark really drilled it into their heads that 9-3 gets them in.

You need to realize, fans take these losses harder than the players. I see this same discussion in all sports. Especially now that these players are getting paid a hefty sum to play (they always have been, just now legal). Money makes you get over losses much quicker.

I get what you are saying, but you don't typically see this after a result like this with the stakes what they are. I've seen some other teams that have had high expectations and disappointing losses this season, and I can't recall a time when a good number of the players were immediately on the field, smiling, taking pics and throwing peace signs and dapping opposing players and staff.

Maybe the players have an understanding that the team kinda sucks this year.

November 16Nov 16 I mean, it’s not like this was Ukraine vs. Russia or Israel vs. Hamas. Yeah, it sucks donkey balls, but it’s not life-ending JFC

If we had lost a nail-biter, then maybe that would be the case. However, I think losing by 25 effectively knocks us out.

We do not currently hate to lose. We are a pussy program. If these guys have any guts at all then they will annihilate the next two teams. They don’t and they won’t. Texas is full of pussy mediocrity.
November 16Nov 16 Just now, CurlyDumps said: Ok then post one. Seems like work. Is there one of the Texas players or we just crying over nothing

It's basically shaking hands and saying good game with people you know. It's the opposite behavior that is embarrasing, like what OSU did last year after Michigan. Now back to focusing my ire on Sark Edited November 16Nov 16 by CurlyDumps

There are plenty of shots of college and NFL players crying on the sidelines after a critical or big loss. Tons. Winners get upset when they lose. Always. When its an important game, moreso. When they get blown out in a critical game absolutely. To claim otherwise and to blow off players behaving as if they dont give a shit tells me a lot about those players and the people excusing the behavior.
November 16Nov 16 Its the new age of FU PayMe college athlete. They are no longer amateurs, and they think differently about shit. Its just a different sport than I was on campus. Gardere was probably getting paid in pitchers.

Can't speak on all this (different era) but Mike "magic" Davis did this in 2010 after the ISU and ou loss. I was dumbfounded. To their credit, Jaxon Shipley and Quandre were the exact opposite.
November 16Nov 16 Amari niblack Was at bama, then texas now a&m. They are 1099 contractors. Can u imagine something like that 6-7 years ago. It's a job to them. We alums and other fans are emotionally vested in the team and university. With this being the nfl minors now, sooner they get to Austin team sponsored by university of texas, the better

What we are seeing now is the evolution of Sport in real time, with all things being recorded and published at all times. Tonight ABC didn’t even show whether KDB shook hands with Jawbone With A Cap after our game. Methhead looking Motherfucker.

November 16Nov 16 Question relating to the above: how hard has Kirby hit the portal? We act like the portal and NIL are the solution to all recruiting ills. I think it's more like catching lightning in a bottle than a systematic solution for recruiting. Ranking-wise, Sark has recruited better than any coach at Texas since early-mid Mack Brown. Ranking doesn't tell the whole tale, though, obviously. He's also gotten some gems out of the portal. Kirby/UGa has a recruiting machine with long-term success going back 10 years now (and I think Richt was going pretty well there too), just like Saban's Alabama and tOSU. Hell, a couple of our best portal players came from Alabama and Georgia. That might tell you something. Edited November 16Nov 16 by TwiceHorn

So basically every good WR they have. They took 10 transfers last year. https://247sports.com/college/georgia/season/2025-football/commits/

Last season was as good as it will get under his leadership. Some still can't accept this reality....but it's true.
