Wut? I don't think you can compare it to an actual victory.
Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (FIRE!!!!!!!!)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
Well, that's one commit. You said two. But he's a 2020 recruit that won't sign for another 16 months or so. Wouldn't put to much stock in that one.

What? No mention of the pig meltdown that was Arkansas losing to the equivalent of a sub-tulane team? Come on man, give me something to laugh at.
People still want Saban. I get there’s a difference in skins, but he’s no spring chicken.
Here is the extent of my knowledge of the situation:
"... My Serena hot-take - I thought she was out of line in losing her mind to the chair umpire, but I'm also not going to pretend that the chair umpire pulled the kind of power play that would never be attempted against a male with the stature of Williams. I don't know what the hell is going on with the tennis world right now, but it these moments of disrespect against Williams seem to be occurring a lot. That being said, Serena has to be better than that because she essentially let that moment define the entire weekend."
What'd the chair umpire do and why?
"correct. There's plenty of evidence with that specific umpire and men players."
And your link shows men and women berating an umpire and not getting penalties.
I'm not saying I'm right, just that that's been my perception.
GDGD
Bedford
Akina, if he counts
Mac Duff
Mack
Watson seems like he still sucks from what I can tell.
Really you're only talking about Manny Diaz and Charlie.
Yeah, I lost my brain for a moment. The losing seasons bleed together.
Honestly through two games who are their best players? LJH and a freshmen safety??
Good 10 Thoughts.
Yelling "Fire!" is probably pretty tame compared to what will be said around here in the next six weeks.
We're in trouble, and it's much more serious than I thought it would be by simply having to clean house on the offensive side of the ball.

Absolutely fair, just thinking that it’s less about age than trust we’re getting the right guy.
I think we’d take someone that was 100 years old if we knew they’d be the one to turn it around. Guaranteed we’d take Saban right now, even if for a little while, long enough to kickstart a resurgence.
Honestly I think Patterson would be welcomed with open arms if there was just a hint he could do that.
So doesn't that mean another "up and comer"?
UT is paying $5.5M/year. Jimbo make $7.5M per year. You can't suggest that CDC is going to (potentially) fire Herman and pay the next guy less than Herman, right?
There's 5-7guys making between $5.5M and $7.5M. I don't think any of them is leaving their respective school.
Do you think its realistic that Texas fires Herman after the 2019 season and hires another group of 5 coach or P5 coordinator?
After Charlie Strong and (maybe) Tom Herman, do you think another hire from the Mountain West or AAC will be well received? When you're talking about an athletic department with a $200M budget, does it really make sense to go cheap(er) here?
That's some hoopla of uncertain significance, but it doesn't change the fact that they lost. Moral victories have the most appeal as the game clock expires. But they always lose their luster over time. So it will be with the ags' loss last night. It will get more bitter as it ages.
No,the fact that it happened at Kyle Field with a monster group of recruits in town matters significantly.
Now will the luster go away? Very probably. Texas can still be staring down the barrel of a gun in 2020. Those two things don't have to be mutually exclusive.
I think @Ron Mexico12 is talking about what other schools are doing rather than Texas killing itself over and over.
As an example, OU is looking as strong as they ever have coming off of a playoff appearance and Heisman winner, while Aggy didn't bring in Jimbo to play by the rules.
I’ll give you Bedford.
Akina is at Stanford, pretty sure a much better place.
Larry Mac Duff probably too far back.
Major? Diaz? Wickline? Rumph?
Just to name a few who we deemed sucked at coaching
Point is we’ve had a lot of coaches come through that based on their previous stops were supposed to fix this crap. To date, it’s not fixed but everyone thinks firing more coaches will fix the mess we are seeing.
Just asking the question.
Nice write-up Ketch. I like the comparison of a player with a big game to his recruiting peer group, but I hope that doesn’t permanently displace story time with Uncle Ketch. Hope they both can make regular appearances.
He has a high school QB running a high school offense. Add to that the ridiculous misuse of talent (RB, TE, and LB) and we are playing 9 against 11.
Herman may be great at details, but he sucks at the big picture.
