Herman also started 0-2 against them including a loss when we were ranked #6.
Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (Time to stop braking)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
The lack of short passes to help his quarterbacks is maddening.
I see your repeated efforts (youtube, article here, random thoughts article, etc.) of trying to talk naysayers off their one legged balancing act of railing about ewers not being the qb for us and that sark should have pulled him vs OSU. I gotta believe there is just no influencing those folks, low acumen of football. but, thanks for the effort ")
Texas has to stop pulling its quarterbacks when they make their first starts on the road.
when you win, you get to shit talk. Dems the rules.
I really want Sark to work out for us. I REALLY DO! That said, the evidence is mounting that he is not going to get it done here. Your record says who you are, and Sark's says all we need to know. It's now regrettably just a matter of time.
John Madden once said “The only thing you learn from losing is how to lose.”
The OSU fans around me still have visions of some of their classic Poke Chokes but I assured them they would come back and win and even named the score. They looked at me after the game like I was Nostradamus.
Mack Brown pulled Vince Young, and Chance Mock won the game versus Texas Tech. That’s apples to apples. Great coach versus extremely mediocre coach. We have a lemon. It sucks, but that’s the truth. Leaving Ewers in there will define the Sark era.
How about “all leads, no wins”? 🤷🏼♂️
@Ketchum I personally was thinking more of bringing Card in when QE was obviously struggling more so as a weapon vs benching QE. Give him a few plays to observe while you can use card for his legs and some play action roll out type stuff.
Then to handle the postgame like Dabo did. Just think there was more they could have done with QE struggling so bad to win the game while still keeping him engaged.

I get it….the others are more ghosts, demon or boogieman centric. You could argue that the Shining was very psychological, with a touch of mysticism. Again, probably just me and how I interpret that genre. Just to be clear, The Shining is one of the best all time IMO.
The failures of the o and d lines the last 10 years are the problem. You can’t fix that on 1 and 1/2 years. Sam E made up for deficiencies in the o line but that didn’t do Texas any favors I. The long run. The team looks better with younger players. Some older players are developing and looking better this year. Ewers is a freshman and that is always going to affect a team, especially a first start on the road with crazy bad officiating. Defense was also terrible for the last 6 years and that is also a 2-3 year fix. They couldn’t cover anybody or stop the run for ever, with very few exceptions. The team looks a little more organized, much better on offensive scheme that Sam and one go to receiver and growing pains are inevitable. To think any coach comes in and turns it around immediately is nuts. They turned over almost half the roster in the off season, it’s looking much better than either TH or CS. It just is. Not saying Sark is the answer, but things look much brighter than with the last two coaches. They were a disaster.
It's not the losing as much as its the stress of the moments. You have to be in them. You have to garner that experience.
Plus, Michael Jordan won more than madden did.
Are there really people out there that would consider those as horror movies?!?!?
Agreed. Maybe thrillers, and Alien a sci-fi thriller, but definitely not horror.
While I'm in general agreement with this, the one major adjustment OSU made was to bring at least one safety up in the box for added run support. They knew Ewers was struggling in a very big way.
While attacking the edges as you suggest would have helped if, say, a safety crashed a B gap, it may not have helped at all if those safet(ies) was/were playing edge support. But a combo of what you suggest and incorporating the RBs and TE in the passing game on shorter routes would have helped a lot, IMO.
The quote from Jordan was from a Nike commercial. He probably didn’t even write that.
And I’ll go out on a ledge that Quinn Ewers isn’t wired like Michael Jordan.
No, I get it. I understand those that might say it falls outside of the horror genre, but it has a lot of of the things you'd say need to be in there.
so very sorry...somehow I remembered you being on the dumbass side of that discussion.
.
Anytime in the 2nd half when it was clear QE wasn’t snapping out of it. I understand Texas was winning, but a change of pace was clearly needed.
Maybe QE sees something from the sideline that he wasn’t seeing under pressure, and starts looking in other directions when he gets back in. Who knows, just a thought.
