I've had more meaningful fights as a student during Texas-OU weekend than some of Mack Brown's football teams. And my winning percentage is higher.


Wow. What a BADASS.

5-9 against Bob Stoops. Four of those losses are among the worst blowouts in Texas Longhorn football history. All are the worst against OU in series history. And the record would be the same if both coaches switched programs. Who am I kidding? It would be worse.

Two conference titles at the University of Texas in fifteen years. 2 of 15. Think about it. That's extraordinary. And long before 2012, it was the one statistic I could never really get past. Hardware matters. Mack Brown must have a national championship quality team led by a transcendent all-time quarterback and a NFL roster to win...a conference?

Bob Stoops has won the league with masking tape and saliva stuck to a Paul Thompson bobble head doll.

6-13 in his last 19 Big 12 contests. Frankly, I'd b a little miffed if Texas was 13-6. But we're 6-13. A .316 winning percentage cuts cleanly through all of the bull**** of non-conference scheduling and other assorted nonsense. Texas can't win a third of our conference games over nearly twenty games. That's as close to a scientific sample as we need. We have to run the table the remainder of the year to get to .500. To get to average.

Which is two more conference titles than anyplace else he has coached. Why do the sips seem so surprised by this?

The horns were in the depths of hell when he got here. He got it turned around quickly so a lot of leeway was given. He finally got a conference title and a BCS win then got the MNC. That gave him some more time. That time has now run out.

I think most programs are slow to fire the head coach. To most fan bases it happens a couple of years too slowly. The horn alumni I have talked with the last two days are done. They weren't done after the last two seasons but are now.

whoa, whoa....

thought a&m was just absolutely ****ing horrible in the big XII.

i also thought the SEC was "top heavy." my guess is that all those big XII titles were distributed evenly among the remaining members.
Harry Stone

it is top heavy. there's OU and everybody else

Paul Rhoads, Art Briles, Kirby Smart. Anyone who says Saban/Muschamp/Kelley is delusional.
BohunkAg
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I wouldn't want Briles. Maybe the other two.
BohunkAg
How long do you want to ignore this user?
And I don't think Saban and Muschamp are realistic, but you never know about Kelly.
UTex09
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I have changed my mind about Briles. He's a massive d[ckhead, but he can recruit Texas, seems to be a good developer of talent (hell he had a player win a Heisman at BAYLOR), and most importantly isn''t a ***** like butterf[ck
UTex09
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Phil Knight wouldn't let Kelly leave Nike U, IMO. He would personally match whatever we offered I would bet. Plus, Kelly has the NCAA microscope hovering.
BohunkAg
How long do you want to ignore this user?
That's why I think Kelly may leave Oregon eventually....to get out ahead of the NCAA.

My early list has Charlie Strong, Dan Mullins, and Paul Rhodes. Sorry if those are spelled wrong. It's hard to type while balancing on this chair with a noose around my neck.
UTex09
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I'd look at Charlie Strong as well. Want no part of Dan Mullen, as he employed Manny _iaz for a year or two.
BohunkAg
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Mullen wouldn't be bad. How about Larry Fedora? High school coaches in the state love him.
The Collective
How long do you want to ignore this user?
The jury is still out on Briles... I'd be shocked to see Texas hire him.
BohunkAg
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Briles is also almost 57 years old.
switzerland

Briles won't get any love after his coaches poll ranking a few years ago. Lots of people I know haven't forgotten that.
UTex09
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Dude could eat kittens in his spare time for all I care as long as he wins. I can't stand Briles either, but I would think he would get a look.

Charlie Strong or Larry Fedora (assuming you could stomach another UNC hire) would make a lot of opponents pucker.

"And if DeLoss Dodds, various donor sycophants, or even just good men who are willing for Texas football to stink because they're more interested in life lessons imparted to 85 scholarship 20 year olds than BCS bowls, get in the way, then they need to be sufficiently motivated to act. Or find their own retirements or marginalization hastened."

Perfect sip article, complete with this self-righteous bs...

ScipioTex has been my favorite sip writer since the 90s. Some of you who haven't read him before this may not know that generally, he's objective. He does mock A&M more often than not but usually it's in the form of humor and I've never been put off by it.

When I watched this Saturday's game I knew it was Mackovic's 66-3 and Fran's ISU 2005, and I knew there would be an article like this forthcoming this week.

I love how Grandpappy Brown is raising young men of excellence and imparting valuable life lessons, yet the police blotter has always stayed busy.
AGSPORTSFAN07
How long do you want to ignore this user?
The pool will be busy this week.
switzerland
How long do you want to ignore this user?
That police blotter has gone down in direct correlation to the number of wins. Once Mack got that MNC he drastically cut down on the number of "risky" players and it shows on the field. I don't want any rapists and gun crimes but I'm more than willing to put up with some public intoxications and disorderly conducts from 19-20 year old kids.

From the comments:

And I do think he has been hurt a bit by the re-emergence of dirty cheating at a high level in college football (think about the programs that have come out of nowhere and begun landing the Lache Seastrunks and RSJs of the world) but that’s not the full story.


Without even addressing the self-righteous side of this comment, who supposedly recruits better than Texas? So f'ing incredible.

I didn't watch the 4th quarter of the game. I didn't see David Ash hurt his wrist or the final indignities. It wasn't disgust on my part. I had no choice. The network moved millions of viewers from their primetime national feature game


Wow. The 'sips have difficulty with both getting on TV and staying on TV.

Only a handful of schools in the country out-recruit Texas and someone is accusing others of dirty recruitment?

WTF?

Bonfire's two-day old pile of **** could rebut that faster than Ribby could blow his load and get made fun of by 14,000 people on Texags.

Interesting that the writer would go out of his way to make that point.
