CDC's suggestion to texas fan base...."Pull together and be the wind beneath our wings." A tired old quote he has used at previous jobs.

Morning talk shows making fun of him was pretty amusing.

All he heard was Del.

This is a joke, right? He didn't really say that, right?

What you say is, "We'll get it right and give these amazing fans here at Texas a team to be proud of. No one can do the work but us, and we sure will."

You don't quote some damn Bette Midler song. That's what wussies do, not football coaches.

Oh, My, God, PLEASE, somebody with innerwebz skills make this happen!

Oh yeah. He said it. Neuheisal really had fun with that.

Also said he used the same quote in reference to his former relationship with Gary Patterson. Said his role was to be "The wind beneath his (Patterson's) wings."

You. Can. Not. Make. This . Up.

There was also this from Del's Little Book of Cliches:

"Coach Sark (Steve Sarkisian) knew when he took the job that it's not always going to be smooth sailing," Del Conte wrote, "that there would be bumps in the road and at times choppy waters that he has to navigate through."


Aaaannndd, young again.
"It's important that we discuss the reality of the situation facing Coach Sark and our football program," Del Conte wrote. "It came up in Monday's press conference and is something we've talked about. This isn't to cast any blame or make excuses; it's just factual that we have some real depth issues. As injuries mount, it's even more glaring. When you look at it, 52 percent of our 2018 signing class and 46 percent of the 2019 class are no longer here."

Cutty Sark just needs to turn on his heart light

My wife's grandfather started his day with something i think called cutty sark. When we spent the night at his place he would give me some of that.

Wind? Their program is more like a wet fart right now.

Geez Del, you built an airplane without anti-ice and as the ice thickens on the wings, you ask the fans for more lift.

If you're interested, here's a rant from "Lifetime Longhorn" Rod Babers on Del's newsletter and his take about the attrition rate for tu and how apparently it's a disadvantage for the 'horns. It's a good rant about Texas's entitlement and excuses and how they "aren't special".

It starts at 23:00 in this clip... https://soundcloud.com/hornfm/rbkd-november-17th-2021-hour-3

(Spoiler: it's not, and other successful teams, including OU and A&M, have the same or worse attrition rates.)

Rick Neuheisel? The same guy who once said his starting QB had "a wonderfully magical body"?

All gas and wind beneath our wings does actually go together.

Sh*tkisian?!

No no no - Shartkisian is perfect!

I'm still lol everytime I see your post

Shartkisian it is then

I guess the saban/sarkissian connection has been severed and he is now on his own. It will take a few years to get the tom Herrman crazy out of that program! That west coast wine drinking vibe is not playing well with the team right now! Give him some room sips!

Living on a Prayer might be a more fitting song.

Combined it's perfect. They're working on a wing and a prayer.
