Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (Saying the quiet part out loud)

[MikeCorleone]

6-3 against this schedule was absolute coaching malpractice. And its not like we had a rash of injuries that provide an excuse.

Texas will never recover from the lost decade, and A&M is the Big Dog in this state now?

(Sell) Texas is a great quarterback and a great coach away from an incredible resurgence.


FIFY

Common sense tells me that Texas administration really is not going to drive Texas football off a cliff and commit suicide by bringing Herman back.... But hell who knows....

This isn't working out and it only looks to be getting worse. I can't imagine bringing Herman back.

Not getting rid of Herman after the last game has me worried of no change. Like what’s the wait for. Ash can always coach the bowl game. Hope something happens.

With just a few days until Christmas, I thought I’d once again let the great Frank Cross from the criminally underrated Scrooged have the final word.

great movie

When does swimming start?

Good work Ketch. Hopefully we make a change. Its going to be tough sledding on the recruiting front until we do. Christmas Vacation at #10, be better. I hope you have a Merry Christmas.

Does Love Actually have a Christmas message? Stupid take @Ketchum but I forgive you for your inclusion of The Ref.

 

[Ketchum]

Honestly I really DGAF about either of their games. That’s where I am emotionally with Texas football. Honestly my only rooting interest for ISU was to see the Anti-Matt Campbell crowd squirm. Beyond that ZFG if OU and aggy won or lost.

That made me sad.

 

[PaperChampion]

With the right coach (and a good QB), we’re where we want to be fast enough. OU got lucky twice when coordinators with no head coaching experience ended up being good head coaches. That is very much against the odds. Texas is due some luck, if you ask me.

By the way, we don’t really know how good Riley is until he has to face a Texas team with a good coach over a period of years. He looks great now but he’s got no competition other than an under-manned but well coached Iowa State.

 

[Ketchum]

Interesting to see the publisher of a fan site bash his customers in the opening take. Bold strategy, Cotton.

I didn't bash anyone. In fact, I complemented customers quite strongly in the Buy or Sell sectioon.

 

[DimiHorn]

The state of our football program is so damn depressing. Painful actually.

 

[Hump34]

Santa Clause 2 with Tim Allen is my #1
I know it’s not as popular as some but my family loves it

I have a hunch that Sam may consider coming back depending on who the coach is going to be.

I also have a feeling that if Herman gets the chance they will beat the brakes off of Colorado

Merry Christmas to you and your family Ketch

 

[Ketchum]

Calling the whole board Aggies ? Pretty interesting take Ketch........ HookEm

That's not quiet what happened, but being in a position to have to root for others to do create your happiness is about as Aggie as it gets, no?

 

[Ketchum]

Glad someone also appreciates the Ref. I take back everything bad I've said about you, brother!

My wide and I are watching tonight. She's never seen it, she claims.

Perhaps I am the only one that finds “Aggy-ish” to be insulting and condescending.

 

[Ketchum]

Ketch have you got some more gasoline cans to throw on the fire?

I'm not really into blaming the messenger. Of course, I am a messenger.

 

[Ketchum]

Perhaps I am the only one that finds “Aggy-ish” to be insulting and condescending.

I disliked writing it as much as you disliked reading it.

 

[Napaak]

Texas football is basically dead to me until they show me something.

lighten up

Truth hurts

 

[Ketchum]

I hear you, Ketch, when you say a change is needed. The problem is, all the reporting is that if we don't get a coach the caliber of Urban Meyer, we won't do anything. Well, outside of Meyer, I don't see that happening. Frankly, I think at this point Meyer is a pipe dream, but I do fall in the "never say never" category. Absent, a rainmaker we are going to have to do a good job of evaluating and then roll the dice and take a chance. There are a number of good coaches out there that can run circles around Herman. But, to say we can find someone that does not involve some risk, LOL. The question is, are we willing to take a risk? Everything I have read is that the answer to that question is no. If that is the case, another year of Herman will set this program back for a number of years. I hope the decision makers understand that.

You can make a case that the events of this weekend were very good for those that want to be agents for change.

Fair take....

 

[Ketchum]

I still will pass on the NBA !!

Oh, what else are you going to watch on Christmas other than the Christmas story marathon!

 

[MB-HORNS]

@Ketchum IMO Kelly or Mullen would kill it here..

 

[Ketchum]

I for one am ready for shit to burn if that’s required
a fvcking men


That was me this year for Texas. Hasn’t worked out yet
I don’t even know you

Hey it made the top 10! It's a crowded list,

[TexSoul]

Texas is a great quarterback, and good Coach away from an incredible resurgence.

I believe that's what you meant, correct?

(fixed it for you) : )

 

[Ketchum]

The fist pump and birdie was cool. Seeing Charlie Woods hit a 5-wood to 5’ on a par 5 in the first round, and then draining the eagle putt, was straight up crazy. The hype machine will be in full effect. If this kid wants golf to be his life like his dad, I’d put a futures bet on him now.

Everything about him is like a mini-Eldrick.
