They may have rings and championship trophies, but we have cowboy hats and letters that light up!
We have rings and championships as well. Don’t hate.
No hate from me, just wish we had more substance in recent history to show these recruits.
He was holding up natty rings not Alamo bowl rings. That's not hate, that's facts.
Hey, I remember 2005 like it was just 16 years ago.

OOS elite prospect visits and OB complains. 🤦🏻♂️
Quit whining…Texas is one of the biggest brands in college football. All this whining is just excuse making.
So does every other team not named Clemson or Ohio State. Just pray the 12 team playoff comes to fruition it’s the only hope anyone has.
sucks having to recruit against bama. we need to start winning asap
At least we are recruiting against Bama. I’m impressed we are recruiting national top recruits. We weren’t doing that a few years ago, so that’s improvement. If we can get a few of them plus the top Texas recruits, we could be on our way back.
With all due respect, it's true, but let's not be silly! It's June 22 and there are no games for about 9 or 10 weeks.
For some reason this narrative has reached epidemic proportions. Of course we have to win. And if you think about, even Alabama has to win or everything goes away.
Right now we're like Clemson in 2010...not terribly long ago. The quiet before the storm. We've gone out and hired the best coaches we can and things are not going to happen until the football season starts.
But...Sark is going to be GREAT. it's written in the stars and everybody can FEEL it happening. AllGasNoBrakes...or it can even be AllGasNoBreaks...either way, because the Hermanizer would give the opponents BREAKS.
Well, The Sharkmeister ain't giving out breaks. And, while not proven at TEXAS, he has proven it LATELY.
We ain't going no 8-4 this year unless there are injuries to our QBs.
I hope you're right! 10 wins this year and its on
Got some prime plus ocean front real estate property in Wyoming to sell you sunshine! We all thought the same thing when we got Herman. His ship and his high draft pick qb at tOSU was going to automatically translate to recruiting titles and championships. We all know how that turned out. We're nothing like Clemson in 2010! Clemson NEVER had the resources, money, brand, luxury of being the flagship school of the number 1 state in the country in recruiting and doesn't have the luxury of being in a city like Austin. Truthfully put, we have been a major disappointment and flop in college football. The only school that remotely comes close to us in the flop category would be USC. The blueblood program in the recruit rich state of California with beaches, babes and alumni has been a major flop. When it comes to consistency, the hierarchy of college football teams in my mind are the following:
Bama
Clemson
tOSU
Ou
Lsu
Notre Dame
Georgia
Everybody else.........
All the proof that you need is by looking at the history of the 4 team playoff. Every school not named Bama, Clemson, tOSU and OU are hoping and praying for a 12 team playoff. It's the only way for most of them to have a shot at telling a recruit "we play for championships here".
Thanks for the response.
I certainly feel your pain. I played golf here so I have some vested interest in ALL the sports played here.
But, I'm not delusional. Play competitive golf and you will understand that there are no victories until you
1) prepare...and yes, that means PRACTICE...but you must be MENTALLY prepared or it doesn't mean s***
2) practice the very things you will encounter in competition...so for a golfer that means finding out how the golf ball reacts under varying conditions. Every idiot can hit from a perfect lie...but what happens when the ground is hard and wet and you gotta hit a chip shot over a sand trap and water is over the green?
The Hermanizer was woefully UNPREPARED for the pressure moments! THAT'S where Sark will make the difference. Sark has ZILCH to do with the disaster known as Texas football in the last 10 years or so.
3) Play like you prepare: Like Davis Love says: If you didn't bring it with you, then you Shirley ain't finding it out HERE.
So you gotta bring it with you! What did Herman bring? No discipline. No plan for off schedule situations. Herman ONLY went AllGasNoBrakes when he was so far behind that he HAD to play aggressively.
So we ARE like Clemson in the sense that we have FINALLY hired a coach that can...get ready for it...GAME DAY coach. Think about it: The Hermanizer routinely f'd up at the end of each half. In golf, the first thing you learn is that the game ain't over until you hole out on the 18th. But The Hermanizer just wanted to close his eyes and hope nothing went wrong at the end of the halves!
I'm sure if you watched a Hermanizer practice things looked like a Sark practice for the most part. But Herman only coached well in CERTAIN games...like the bowl games. Sark has shown that he will coach in ALL the games.
That doesn't mean we will win every game. But walking in sleepy-eyed ain't working with the Sharkmeister.
Again...Clemson was NOBODY 11 years ago...now look at 'em. Now we're NOBODY, but we've done what Clemson did. Hired a GAME DAY coach.
Let the games begin!
Would you rather recruit against Houston? Water is wet.
Rumor in SC is that he favors teams recruiting him as a WR instead of TE. Doesn't want to bulk up to TE, fears loss of speed.
I understand bama isn't in his top 5. He likes all the Florida Schools, especially FSU, but also Miami and Florida. Clemson near home is after him too. We are in the running as much as bama, unfortunately that may be jostling for fifth place. I haven't seen FSU win much lately and they seem the favorite.
How are we besides not winning a championship?
Their record over the last 10 years:
2020 - 8-2
2019 - 12-2
2018 - 11-3
2017 - 13-2
2016 - 8-5
2015 - 10-3
2014 - 10-3
2013 - 8-5
2012 - 12-2
2011 - 10-4
I don't need to post our record over the past ten years for you too see why i question your statement.
Nobody does besides Bama (and maybe Clemson) recently. And besides, we have 10 if we count like Bama does.
That’s why I said recent, like since the recruits were paying attention. They’ve never seen us be great.
