UW just suspended their head coach Jimmy Lake one game for going at one of his players during the Oregon game.

That's why I think TU will get it done in 1 of 3 years

Its only 6 conf wins, they can get that done if they don't lose to Maryland or some other dumpster in non conf

Hearing rumors Sark might have gotten into it with a player in front of the team, in a bad kinda way.  

Transfers out might make boosters booze him up so they can fire him for cause

It’s not a rumor, but it wasn’t “in a kinda bad way”.

They had a verbal argument after he called the kid out for his poor play and practice habits.


ETA: this kid was on thin ice already after being arrested for brandishing a Glock earlier in his career.

FIFY.  Texas is 16-1 in the Big Xii vs Kansas. That loss was during the regime of the worst HC in Texas history and he was fired at the end of the season. If Sark manages to lose to Kansas this weekend, he’ll likely to be shown the door as well (I suspect he’d get at least 1 more year though). As for the struggling, no one is arguing Texas is in any sort of good spot. We absolutely have sucked since the NCG vs Bama. Bad teams often struggle to beat other bad teams.

That 1901 game musta been a barn Butner

Anytime ya let a team hang around at the end of the game it can go their way and will eventually.

TTU lost to KU in 2019, it sucked.  Put them away this year and it didn't mean squat.

Getting into a verbal altercation with an athlete who is a known knucklehead has NOTHING to do with any heat Sark is getting.


A 4 game losing streak (something that idiot Charlie Strong never managed to accomplish) where Texas lead each game at half is why there is any heat at all on Sarkisian.

For clarification, I meant it more that every single move and interaction, especially if appears negative, will be highly scrutinized, externally and I'd wager internally.  

All that $$$ comes with strings.  Winning at a high level gets you slack but the noose is always around the coaches neck

I would seriously consider putting a bunch of money in front of Urban Meyer. If I was the University of Texas. But who knows, maybe his last scandal will ruin even the chance of new players from wanting to listen to him.

I bet Urban would want to be the only coach in CFB whose ever won National Championships at 3 different Universities.


While I don't want to see Texas succeed, I would think Urban, if he's not jacked up on viagra, could get another natty before disappearing with no worse of a crater of a football program

They tried that. Urbs picked NFL.

I’d consider approaching Kyle Shanahan. He’s a Texas Alumni. He’s had a team in the Super Bowl. His offense would kill it at Texas.


The big time hires and crazy dead money without any high level sustained success is likely keeping some sure things away.  

Texas whooped Texas Tech and yet TTU has a better record, although I suspect that won't last.  Texas should be a 10-13 win team annually

I doubt it. These coaches all have huge egos and all KNOW that THEY can turn any team around.

I’d take 9 wins and be fucking thrilled.


9 wins may be okay for you but not for the big money donors who are driving that train wreck

but 9 may look good once tu gets into the sec




I predict UT has one or more 10 win season in first 3 SEC years.

Keep in mind though our starting kicker was really good until he got injured and he's not back to being right.

Our backup kicker is a walk on. So, yeah we're scraping the barrel right now. We didn't recruit a kicker because our starting guy was good.

I think it's a fantastic move on his part.

2011 Texas A&M Aggies football team
The 2011 Texas A&M Aggies football team represented Texas A&M University in the 2011 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Aggies were led by fourth year head coach Mike Sherman during the regular season and Tim DeRuyter during their bowl game. They played their home games at Kyle Field. This was their final football season as a member of the Big 12 Conference. They finished the season 7–6, 4–5 in Big 12 play to finish in a tie for sixth place



I’m not saying it WILL happen, I’m agreeing with the other poster that sometimes bad/mediocre teams get players and coaches that allow them to rise above their previous poor results.


ETA: I (as a Texas fan) wouldn’t bet on it happening.

That’s the head coach’s line of thinking that if they deflect and make it look like the coordinator was the problem he will get a second chance.  I understand the logic, but what I’m saying is that the AD and boosters usually decide the head coach is the problem.

are you assuming they get placed a new division with missouri, vanderbilt, so carolina, TN and kentucky?

A&M did it in year 1.  

Players matter but playing the same schools every year vs newcomer with good enough players can and will win.

Truth.
And Mike Evans and an OL that all played in the NFL.

Opponents not having played them every year prior is a factor.  Playing teams 4 years straight and opponents know the individual players better.  A&M was rolling that season and whooped OU in a bowl game iirc

McGuire has 2 defensive recruits commit that weren't on TTUs radar on day 1

He gets to Lubbock tomorrow.  Not sure how to react to quality and instant recruiting bump.  Heard a bunch of offers went out.

ETA: got a 3rd, a defensive tackle commit.  

Solid day 1

Big 12 to SEC schools are 2 of 2 winning 10 games at least once in first 3 seasons.  

Bet the richest athletic department can figure it out at least once.

There are thousands of decent HS kickers that are going to colleges across the country.  Sometimes ya need some competition.

But its impossible to replace a guy like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Trlica

Mr. Clutch was automatic during a very high scoring era of Texas Tech football.  NCAA record holder still to today I believe

it worked at Texas Tech in 2008, sorta.  We had a terrible FG kicker, after 4 stud years with Trilicia, and a student kicking contest got us a kid we called Linwood as his kick was supposed to get him a free apartment for 6 months.  

Pretty sure he had to decline the contest winnings but he could make reasonable distance FG's and extra points

Not a bad move at all.  Pretty low percentage in it working but you can get lucky sometimes.

I’ve got a cousin that was a soccer player in high school.  When he was a sophomore, the football coach saw him fooling around at PE one day kicking a football.  He’d played city league football up until he was high school age.  The coach asked him to come to practice as a kicker even though the season was over halfway through and he set several kicking records afterwards.    This particular high school has been around since the 1920s.

If you hire on with the understanding that you will likely be fired three years in even putting forth a great effort to succeed, you can pad your bank account pretty nicely.

We're catching hell about it from the sports writers. He's too hard on his players he shouldn't call them out etc.

Fuck that shit. Our kickers had 1 job to do and they didn't do it. If anything it teaches them to take criticism and improve their game.

Keep in mind though our starting kicker was really good until he got injured and he's not back to being right.

Our backup kicker is a walk on. So, yeah we're scraping the barrel right now. We didn't recruit a kicker because our starting guy was good.

I think it's a fantastic move on his part.

Paul Finebaum can go choke himself. I can't stand that guy and for some reason he just plain hates anything MSU.



i totally supported this whole post until i got the finebaum comment and i just have to speak up. it should be finebaum can go fuck himself.  its beyond me how that dude keeps his damn job.



Exactly for the reason you just expressed. Controversy. Everyone hates Finebaum but can’t quit talking about him.

Fired his offensive staff

Coach Scott Frost, with 'clear plan and vision for the future' of Nebraska Cornhuskers football, agrees to restructured contract

Scott Frost will return as Nebraska's football coach in 2022 with a restructured contract, athletic director Trev Alberts announced Monday.

While Frost will return, it has been long expected that changes will occur on his staff. That began on Monday, when Nebraska fired offensive coordinator Matt Lubick, offensive line coach Greg Austin, running backs coach Ryan Held and quarterbacks coach Mario Verduzco.

The blame / plan moving forward to make change had to be placed somewhere. Being they have a pretty decent defense and a middle of the pack scoring offense it looks like the offense is where Frost chose to lay the blame. Another example of the assistants usually getting fired first, giving the HC another year. When’s the last time we saw virtually the entire staff on 1 side of the ball fired?

Kliff Kingsburys first staff didn't make it to the end, to a man

Eta:  still never had one side completely fired at the same time.  

"Big" time coordinator can fill out the staff as they see fit.  OC, WR, TE, OL, RB
