Was part of hiring the undisputed worst football coach in school history and after losing to last place ou, his basketball hire is a near certainty to be the first to lose 20 since Kaiser Bob in Reagan's first term. Add in that he was run out of town before needing to reorder business cards and...

Thank you God. I just can't watch/listen if we lose to K-St

Whatever momentum we had is dead. We just got prison raped by Iowa f****** State. You're a good guy but 3-5 following 6-7 can't happen. Charlie's not the guy. And anybody who says 'it's a process ' or 'it's Macks fault ' can kiss my ass. Good/great coaches have immediate impact. This coach is...

But he's 1-3 staring 1-5 in the face. After 6-7. I'm glad he's likable because if if he wasn't I'd want him out.

and my God, how things have changed. He stayed in Jester and raved about the food options. His advisory counselor had a 4-year plan mapped out for him, down to the class. He signed up for everything on-line in 30-minutes. Gawd, where was that when I needed it. He raved about a state of the...

To all you muthas out there. Me included. ðŸ‘ðŸ»

Heard yesterday that a friend and former co-worker died suddenly at the age of 53. The family is going to do an autopsy, but he wasn't a smoker, was a little bit of a health nut and had no history of heart disease so it's a mystery to this point.  two cool teenage kids, had recently started a...

ok, as i understand it this weekend's series against BU is meaningless except for seeding. we're in the conference tourney regardless, right? if that's not right, someone let me know. so we've got this scheduling quirk having to play 2 in waco sunday and then beginning the conference tourney on...

The NFL has announced Green Bay will host Chicago in prime time this year. They'll be retiring Brett Favre's jersey that night. Meanwhile in Austin, before an announced crowd of 85000 that looks more like 65000 two teams clinging to bowl eligibility will also be televised. To what surely will...

Hoops team made the NCAA tourney which is still a good thing to this guy who grew up when it was rare. Baseball took 2/3 to open conference play. J Spieth won a PGA event. We'll have worse weekends. Smell the roses...

Torch passed to Luck

As closely as some. So what am I to make of a lot of kids that a lot of well known schools wanted picking a school with a losing record, boring uniforms, crappy facilities, and a hard-ass coach in a shit conference? Do these kids not read message boards?

1) if you give nick saban a month to prepare...'   this is back-to-back bowls where he got schooled by      big underdogs.  2) many blew smoke up manziel's skirt because he did what he did against 'SEC defenses'.      tcu abused ole miss. G/tech had 452 RUSHING against miss st and a 3rd string...

is ape-s**t nuts. i know i'm in the minority as a frequenter (is that a word) of message boards. but the zillion threads on every board about any one kid just amaze me. i hope we get some talented kids, and i suspect we will. but the obsessing over every tweet, clothing change or any other...

The state of Arkansas got kicked in the package. Happy Big Shootout Day to all!

Sitting on the back porch in the Hill Country sipping a glass of red, smokin' some baby backs that would make Joeywa cry. Happy Sunday y'all

the most truthful cliche in sports. they just do. FSU tonight a great example.  it happens with fan bases too. some teams expect bad things. some expect good things. I've seen both as an astro/oiler/spurs fan. fors the first two, i always expected the worst and the latter, the best. there were...

SHA's Taylor Ducks did indeed make the postseason with a 2-8 record. 4A D1 La Vernia, ranked #9 in the state, will play 1-9 Rio Grande City Grulla.   And the best of all is Houston Scarborough, 0-10 and outscored 566-82 this season. Evidently their district only has 4 football playing teams...

Wonder how this is going to work for the fans of the participating schools. (not that ESPN, the ncaa, the schools or anybody making money on the deal care) Many, maybe most, on this board have travelled to UT out-of-state bowl games. It's a blast but it's expensive and requires money and time...

1977. FR year. Hadn't beat the bastards in 7 years. New coach, new offense and we'd beaten 3 tomato cans by huge numbers, but it didn't matter. we had to beat ou. Three memories burned in the brain. UT QBs going down immediately. Earl hurdling his way to a TD. Goal line stand to save the win...
