You can't have three years in a row of all fish and sophs. Think about it.

Eh, Patterson's team was full of freshmen and sophs in '15 and went 11-2. In fact, I think he had the 3rd youngest team in the country that year behind Strong and Butch Jones. Grant it, he has a quality coaching staff. Strong's was straight up made of a massive pile of shit assistants who wouldn't have jobs today if it wasn't for Charlie bringing them down to USF with him.

I am calling BS. 7 of the top 12 leaders in tackles were Juniors or Seniors. Boykin was a Senior. Senior Aaron Green ran for over 1000 yards. Senior Josh Doctson has 1300 recieving yards. Senior Listenbee had 600.

That show not what I meant by my words. My bad. I was saying that a team cannot logically be STUCK with all fish and sophs for three years. Those same players get older. So it cannot be an excuse that we had only youngsters for three years. Charlie was fucking up

Sorry, Texas will not beat USC in September. Probably 8-4, maybe 7-5. All the new coaches in the world won't make a difference. Trust me, we've had 50 new ones at various positions over the last 5 years and we have still sucked. Herman has got to recruit to turn this ship around.

Posters can make millions of New posts that are solely about one team, and no one says peep.

Perhaps that is the issue. Hard to develop when there is so much schematic and coaching turn over.

Yeah. I already said it last year. We are the Cleveland browns of the NCAA.

Someone explain to me how we had a Doak Walker winner running 2000+, and we still had a losing record? That is impressively awe-inspiringly horrid coaching and scheming.

You guys aren't THAT bad... Not yet, anyway. Your new coaching 'may' move you up a notch or two in 2017. If not, then... :drink:

Call it all you want. Patterson used a total of 16 freshmen and sophomores throughout the year in '15.

I think the job was too big for Strong, he seemed to forget how to coach and develop. You can't use the young card in a year when the big 12 was down, and most of your sophmores had massive playing time.

Games in a number that is unknown. Calling it now.

So 7???
You've got 5,6,8,9 down in recent years. More so the 5 & 6.

I know. Too bad Nebraska isn't on the schedule 12 times. You would win 'em all then.
