    Well he did have a nice TD drive before his 4(and counting) 3 and outs.

    ...aaaaaand that's 5 drives for -26 yards since the TD

    The Longhorns don't just lose. They get physically manhandled, roll over and die.

    If the games were 30 minutes long we'd be ranked in the top-5

    I’m over Sark already.

    But, UT needs new boosters. They’re the real problem

    This is embarrassing. There are personnel issues on offense, but you would think a supposed elite offensive mind like Steve Sarkisian would be able to scheme around some of them.

    Four straight losses, all with Texas leading at halftime. Fourth straight game scoring 10 or less after halftime, too.

    What am embarrassing week for this program. Even Charlie didn't drag down the program this quickly and unnecessarily injure his best player in a blowout.

    Maybe the monkey's curse dictates that we lose to both Kansas schools before we can rebuild.

    Won’t happen. But, this definitely exposes Sarkisian as some sort of offensive genius. He needs an offense with a bunch of NFL caliber players to be productive.

    They should put all of the boosters inside the new south end zone club they bought, play the 2005 national championship on a loop (gotta do something with that LHN programming), keep the whiskey flowing and lock the doors behind them. Maybe the program could make a hire worth a damn.

    I just don’t understand why boosters thought Sarkisian was a slam dunk hire. He hadn’t been a head coach at the college level in years, and he was mediocre to bad at Washington and USC. It was a huge risk. I would rather have let Herman finish out his final year and continue searching.

    Consistently out coached and unable to get the kids to play inspired.

    Of course. That’s why I didn’t understand buying out Herman’s final year to hire a massive risk in Sarkisian. Urban Meyer, I understood. But Sarkisian was mediocre to bad as a head coach with Washington and USC years ago, and all he’s done of note since is coach the most loaded offense in college football.

    Herman had to go, dude was a hot mess at the end. That being said, I have no idea what the f*ck is going on anymore. This is downright bad, like Strong level bad.

    Sark will get his 3 years outside of something catastrophic but I can’t see any immediate fix really.

    It's the same thing we have seen with so many hires from the Patriots. The proximity to great talent and results is not the same thing as being critical to cultivating and developing that talent. Sark had enormous resources before as head coach and was not very productive, outside of his personal problems.

    Herman's with the Bears and probably won't give up that new professional network, for a team that fired him with a winning record and bowl win every season.
