Let people who want it have an option to "ignore thread" or "mark all future entries read" and just don't read or complain. The issue is bigger than that. Allowing this discussion to continue, with some of our Top Men knifing each other in the spine, is unhealthy. I don't think we've ever had a topic so divisive nor seen this level of vitriol between fellow horns. oh well, carry on. ::popcorn::

September 30, 20196 yr Gentlemen we have the hillbillies this weekend and probably the most meaningful ou game since colt and Shipley roamed the 40. Let this go. It was our darkest time period ever but we are headed towards the sun. Enjoy the ride.

Vahe was decent but no Doug Dawson. He seemed like a real keeper freshman year but just ended up meh. I am still not sold on Kerstetter and Cosmi. Man, Cosmi had one of the worst plays I've ever seen in the second OU game where he let his guy beat him on the inside without even making a move. I've been watching and or playing football for over 40 years and I'd never seen more fail on a single play from an OL ever. There was no stunt or twist or anything -- that gooner just beat him to the inside and sacked Sam while Cosmi watched helplessly. Which, again, sort of reminds me of the last decade of our OL play. I keep coming back to this, but Bruce Matthews came to check out UT to see if Luke and Jake should be heading there. This was back in the Hornfans days....I remember reading then that daddy Bruce came away fucking laughing at our OL coaching. Laughing at us, and then they all ended up aggy, and he was right to send them there. For me that was the firebell in the night, that the Mack regime was beginning to crumble. And it was.... You fucking nailed the OL evals. Charlie should hire you.

It couldn't have been that off base when you followed up with posts talking about Top Men and some weird notion of board unity or rowing the boat in the same direction. I strongly doubt either of those posters gives one shit about pounding away at the other one, and neither should you or anyone else. Personally, I love this thread, and I hope it never fucking dies. If nothing else, like many other facets of this board, it's yet another telling fount of information that helps me form my own thoughts and opinions on various posters.

September 30, 20196 yr 20 hours ago, MAUFRAIS said: There’s a lot of vitriol for Mack here, and he won a national championship and almost another one. Its called cognitive dissonance. Its why some people against all logic try to convince others that Charlie Strong was anything other than a disaster at Texas. They have to justify in their mind that nobody could be worse than the hated Mack Brown.
September 30, 20196 yr 18 hours ago, TKthunder2 said: My grandfather played for Ed Price (which is the only reason I know this) but while he had a bad end to his short tenure, he still managed a pair of conference titles, finished in the top 10 twice and won a Cotton Bowl over Tennessee; so in no way was he worse than Strong. I’m guessing you meant Jack Chevigny, but even he had a better records than Strong. And he beat Notre Dame and died at Iwo Jima. He's a Texas legend regardless of his coaching record. Charlie Strong only did 1 of 2.

September 30, 20196 yr I don't have anything else to say on this to THujone and it doesn't look like he's got anything else to offer either, so you guys discussing it are addressing something almost 24 hours old. That said, if more shit comes to light and we're arguing further, I don't give one fuck what this board wants, as is the standard.

Let's not re-write history, Chief. In year 2, I was adamant that Charlie would not be fired before he finished 3 years, for lots of reasons. The negativity was tiring as fuck for a guy who wasn't getting fired. I never said I wanted him to stay. He wasn't fired until he was given 3 years. That's all I was ever saying. It was as agonizing for me as anyone else.
September 30, 20196 yr Kaiser Bob sucked, too. 77-98 over his 6 years "leading" Texas Hoops. Shit-show too? that IS Kaiser Bob at least according to google. I quit going to mens basketball games after deloss fucked over Abe and so never went to one of kaiser bob's abortions so I never saw that worthless piece of shit in person. fuck both* of em. *KB & DLD

September 30, 20196 yr At least Charlie never had so many players quit that he had to pull a cheerleader off the sidelines to suit up. The good news was that you could go to a basketball game and literally sit anywhere you wanted to. Those were the days.

October 1, 20196 yr Going through that old thread for laughs, I completely forgot this happened at the end of the Notre Dame game: This actually happened at the University of Texas. LOL @ that goober look on his face. Charlie went 16-21 and got carried off the field TWICE, lol
October 1, 20196 yr Shit I was fucking ecstatic too...until fucking Cal came along and the wheels fell off again.
