  1. Would Major be in the running for the head job at UH? I haven't seen much mention of that, but he's done well there. They would just have to keep him away from the training staff.
  2. I don't get why Jimbo would leave FSU unless there are issues with admin at FSU. He gets the same talent currently and is an easier conference. He has a good chance to make the playoff each year in the ACC without having to play Saban, [Hidden Content]
  3. Herman turn them down?
  4. The Big 12's four Texas schools went 0-4 in games they were supposed to win. Baylor, TCU, Texas Tech and Texas lost by 21, 25, 56, and to Kansas, each more embarrassing than the last. [Hidden Content]
  5. Fat Ketch is great. I can't believe some of y'all pay him for this. Quote:You have my permission to dream big with the 2016 Texas Longhorns.Go ahead.As the resident brake-tapper on Orangebloods, I've been dealing cold water to Texas fans since I gave Garrett Gilbert and the 2010 Longhorns the benefit of the doubt in nightmarish fashion.Since then, there's been a whole lot of realism (sometimes passed off as pessimism) when it comes to any kind of prediction for the Texas football program. When Texas fans have bathed in the sunshine of 9-3 prognostications, I'm the one over the last five years who handed them a towel in the form of possible seven-wins (or less) season reminders.So, I feel like when I tell you it's ok to give into the sunshine pumping, it's coming from a place you can trust that doesn't give into going ga-ga over any kind of burnt orange success with the ease of a sixth grader falling in love with the girl sitting next to him in history class. After two weeks of college football action, there are two incredibly important truths as it relates to the ability of this team to win a trophy or two.These Longhorns are pretty damn goodand the conference they play in is not.It's that simple.After wins over Notre Dame and UTEP, the Longhorns have dangerous units in every phase of the game with some of the best young, emerging talent in the entire country and, oh yeah, a quarterback who is reminding people of a young Colt McCoy.Meanwhile, the Big 12 looks like a conference that should lose its spot at the big boy table. Already this season, Oklahoma, TCU, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech have taken Ls from the likes of Houston, Arkansas, Central Michigan and Arizona State, respectively. Frankly, I'm willing to give the Sooners the benefit of the doubt, but the rest of these teams all look like rubbish. In what was supposed to be a quiet week in college football because of the lack of quality match-ups, but the Cowboys and Horned Frogs found a way to be the only teams in the country to fall out of both polls after home losses to unranked teams.I don't know if this Texas team truly has championship chops, but outside of possibly the Sooners, I don't know that there's a team left on the schedule that's as good as the team I've watched the last two weeks at DKR.It's two weeks into the season, but I don't see any reason why this team won't be playing for important things late in the season. Like almost every team in the country not named Alabama, this is a group that might be an injury or two away from trouble, but based on what we've seen thus far, there's no reason to cringe at the thought of thinking big.Perhaps the stars aren't aligning, but it sure seems like I can see Orion's Belt from here. You have my permission to dream big.~Ketch
  6. Boom
  7. I'm just worried about another coaching search that I'll have to tell my grandkids about. This is getting to be a lot to remember.
  8. I've been playing craps with a bunch of LSU fans all night in Marksville. They all seem to think Jimbo is headed to Baton Rouge. I don't see why he would make a lateral move at this point unless he doesn't get along with the admin.
  9. Charlie needs more time. The team is still young and at least they didn't give up 50.
  10. That's racist. If he was white he would have gotten 4 years. Al & Jesse are headed to the 40 acres with their dildos as I type.
  11. Tweet of the year?
  12. You must have inside sources
  13. I'm all fairness, Kansas may be the best 9 loss team in the country. They have competed for at least the 1st half in most of their games.
  14. The Savior tweeting from the sidelines? Did he play today?
  15. Chattanooga leads Bama near the end of the 1st. Chaos
  16. Charles O needs a safe space I think.
  17. 1st win vs FBS team in over 2 years. Texas is back folks!
  18. Kansas win 24-21! And the fans rush the field
  19. Kansas with a 20 yard FG for the win
  20. Int. Kansas needs a score to win
  21. Lawrence, Kansas is a tough place to play Headed to OT tied at 21
