I don't know if it's confidence or foolishness. It better start to get better fast or they'll be chasing their tail into the NIT again.
Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (Things that need to happen in the next 244 days...)

It was wild in real time, especially when that dumb ass Patriots player jumped offsides at a point when the Titans were not even trying to run a play.
And where is the proof? Specifically the part of Texas being more physical? Not sure where you are reading that, but seems to me we've lost a helluva lot of games to what should be inferior physically teams more than just a "couple of exceptions." Sh*t, we got bullied alone by Maryland TWICE.
Lot of truth. Of course, much like the softball coach hire, not sure how challenging replacing Aston will be since her contract is up. Seems pretty clear at this point she won't be back, so once again, CDC gets a pop-up for his 2nd coaching hire. Where the rubber meets the road is what does he do with Shaka should he fail to make the tournament for a THIRD time in 5 seasons, which would equal the same number of missed tournaments in the 27 years prior to his hire.
I'm still confused I guess...not sure what a S&C coach would need to do to earn his job, feedback on him, as I stated, has been overwhelmingly positive
Do you not read post-game summaries here and on newspaper sites, pressers, etc.? For example, the game against Utah (see the quote from chron.com, talks about Texas being more physical). OU game, game before Big12 'ship against them, we were more physical.

I gave you just 2 examples, there are others, you can search them up yourself. Texas, under Herman, has been developing a rep of being more physical that their opponents. Again, not a consistent "monster" yet, but more often than not. Another example for you: Sugar Bowl vs. GA...please don't tell me GA did not want to be there.
I don’t recall ever hearing this sentiment from you.
It’s a fair concern - I’m not sure I can pin in on fatigue given how terribly coached our defense was, esp the secondary.
Pretty straightforward list. I think Diggs will be top 3 by the time he's done. Out of curiosity, what did you think would be shocking?
You're cherry-picking.
Baylor tossed around like rag dolls
TCU pushed our sh*t in the 2nd half
KANSAS damn near beat us.
We averaged 2 yd/carry against ISU.
I anticipated a lot of head scratching from that post. Hell, I was scratching mine when I made it!
I didn't mean regular QB, only Wildcat- I don't think Hill plays regular QB much, if at all, either. He shouldn't. And I also don't believe Hill is a legit 4.45, although considerably faster than Sam.
It was more of an attempt to imagine a way to have Sam on your roster, to have him spot the starter for a few plays a game as a change of pace. As Patterson has said- and I think he means it- Sam is a fullback playing QB, and presents some special problems to a college defense... whether there are innovative ways or not to justify him in the NFL, I'm certainly the last one to ask.
I do know that if there are any ways, I would jump on them to have him on my NFL roster.
At WORST, Hill is a legit 4.5 guy. And he's got a 38" vert. Hill is pretty much considerably everything when it comes to explosiveness than Sam. I mean, Hill's Pro Day was better than McCaffrey's combine results.
Ah gotcha. Best of luck my friend.It's out. JUst waiting for the pain to go away. Almost out of drugs.
Thanks! Not even a slight nitpick this week!
I would contend that the feedback has been full of confirmation bias and not supported by actual tangible success.
I cannot pinpoint when and where it happened, but I know we've discussed it in podcasts. I have never bought into the hype.
I think a lot of people would be surprised at how average a number of them have been as pros. Only a couple of Pro Bowlers for a school that fancies itself as DBU
Yancy knows where the bodies are buried. He and Herman are connected for all-time.
