Texas: Glory Days

[outofyourmind]

So, Nebraska's dumb fucking football players are smarter than the Texas dumb fucking football players.


This thread went off the rails a while back obviously.


When were those 'Glory Days' again?

 

[MarkOU]

Texas Glory days...hmm well.

DKR
3 national titles
10 conference titles
12-7-1 vs OU
17-3 vs A&M

Brown
1 national title
2 conference titles
7-9 vs OU
10-4 vs A&M

Yup, that's them.

what a dumb ass....

 

[Texas Jefe]

indeed

 

[Texas Jefe]

and I agree, enough with the smart/dumb players stuff. I just responded to some others arguing about how stupid we were at Texas, and got hooked into the tussle.


But it is funny, that in the middle of this, we have a dumbass linebacker, who has been a huge disappointment on the field, pull a stupid, dumbass move.


Thus, I feel I can no longer participate in this discussion, as he pretty much prevents me from sustaining any momentum in this debate.


What a dumbass for opening his mouth.

I already miss Mack.

Brimming with confidence he is. He SHO' is.

He SHO' did.

[charlie42s]

Seriously, did he really say that???

Yep. One of the best ways to motivate players in the off-season is to tell them that they aren't good enough. Of course, he would probably have more confidence if he knew who was going to be the QB.

Seriously, did he really say that???

Yep he said it, and he's right. We aren't even close. It needed to be said. I have all the confidence in the world that he will get us the talent in time, but right now, We just don't have it. The talent we do have needs to go to work to get better. The Spa days are over.

 

[charlie42s]

All he is really saying is that Texas is not a Top 4 team. This is not a surprise, it's the truth, unless something really strange happens. I'm almost always hopeful.

SO I guess that means he doesn't think they will win the Big12? I mean it is likely the Big12 champ is in the playoff....

Ya, confident new HC right thar.

 

[Wishbone]

It's possible that texas won't be a top 4 team in the Big XII.

Ya', I get that he's just being realistic, but I'd sure want a "yes we can" attitude from my team as opposed to his "no we're not."

 

[WhiteMamba]

especially when you are a coach of a blue blood. ^^^

1st year or not.

 

[outofyourmind]

He just doesn't want to deal with high expectations I guess.

 

[Red_Alert]

Yeah. I think it's more about keeping 'fan expectations' reasonable (for his own job security).

 

[outofyourmind]

I remember when Stoops came in.
He said fuck rebuilding, we have what it takes to win right now.

Strong is just being honest. This team is nowhere near being a NC contender right now. First and foremost, he needs to weed out Mack's players and recruit his own players that fit his system. We have no QB right now and are replacing starters on the O-line. I'm pretty sure Saban didn't tell Bama nation he was going to win the NC in his 1st year, seeing how Bama went 7-6 and was getting embarrassed by ULM at home. Calm down, guy.....
