Texas Players Melting Down: Angry with Each Other, Sniping to Media, on Twitter

[BusSport]

Coming on top of the Texas player tweeting at halftime about transferring to Texas A&M, this from CBS Sports:

Junior safety Dylan Haines, for instance, who wasn't shy about sharing his thoughts, and took some shots at the younger players on the Texas roster.

Among other things he said (see below), Haines said some teammates "need to grow up" and that younger players "don't listen" to the veteran leaders. He added, "This is not [high school] where you don't watch film and still win."

Well, some of those freshmen players Haines was talking about happened to see his quotes on Twitter, and at least one of them didn't appreciate what Haines had to say.

this is some biblical wailing and gnashing shit goin' on here.

How much did we pay Charlie again? Cotdamm! he gave us EXTRA fries and shit. GOOD JOB CHUCK!

Couldn't happen at a better time.
Falling apart before our eyes.

And if they win this weekend, then all is forgiven and Charlie gets another season without a doubt.


But Jexas will get rolled.

Doesn't seem like this is the sorta crap that Charlie would put up with. Wasn't he getting pissed this time last year that someone took down a poster in the locker room, or didn't take down a poster? Now he has guys on their phones at half time and publicly airing their locker room troubles.

Is it time to put the popcorn in the microwave?

I was gonna make a thread on this. OH BOI, would not wanna be part of that locker room right now.

 

[Hook'Em0608]

This shit is embarrassing...

 

[fordman84]

It's stuff like this that will give boosters that want Charlie out the ammo they need. The story we are told that a that Texas will be bad while rebuilding, but they will be hungry and well disciplined. In reality it looks like they are bad while rebuilding, but players aren't trying or working hard and they are taking their private stuff public.

Texas will probably win this weekend because I've got OU in my pick ems +10 points.

 

[BTHOtu]

and where the hell is Charlie hiding at these days? It's been too long since a good Charlie meltdown

Yes, he got upset because one of the coaches posted an unflattering article on the locker room cork board, and no players ripped it down angrily, which was what Strong was hoping one of them would do.

I still don't quite get that, but, I ain't no coarch...

LOL, that's right. But didn't he get onto someone earlier for destroying other peoples property, like they tore something up in the locker room? I can't even remember when he has been fake outraged or why some players were disciplined.
