Horns vs Bears thread

[Monahorns]

We have had three coaches. It cant always be the coach. The loss is on the players. Woke attitude of players,professors and school. No emphasis on winning. The atttitude is not on winning but how will it benefit me or how much money can I make.

It's the coaches job to change that. If that means benching players then do it.

Another loss on the OL.

If zcasey has a little time he had 3 Hzr receivers wide open for 6.

Washington’s 2 drops did not help, Witt would
have caught those.[/QUOTE

Has Texas beaten a team with a winning record this year?

Card has, Casey hasn't...

 

[dukesteer]

I’m a big Casey fan but IMO it’s time for a change. Start Card. Shake things up. While Casey isn’t responsible for the drops and the fumble, his inability to use his legs on critical plays hurt us. And his inability to lead us down the field late in the last three games to a possible victory is what it is.

Im not saying that Card will be any better. What I am saying is that after leads and late collapses in three straight games, it’s time for a change. Card may do no better. He can’t do any worse.

 

[Sydhank]

Freaking Baylor. We lose to TCU and Baylor on the regular.

For clarity, Texas has lost 2 of 3 to Baylor and 6 of 8 to TCU.

 

[old65horn]

Casey needs to show some poise and drive the team down the field. Lots of time left.

But not enough time in the pocket

……Sark is "Seven Win Steve".

I wish!

 

[Clean]

No matter what happens in the game, Sark just stares down at his playlist, or whatever that is in his hand, emotionless. Come on man! Get pissed off!Chew some ***! Didn’t he watch Saban when he was at Bama? Saban would be ranting and raving up and down the sideline.

Don’t change what I said. Can you read??? I said our offensive line is horrible...wtf...

 

[txhorn_et]

Well, shutting it down for the season. This team doesn’t know how to win. Nobody, including Bijan, wants to step up and be the guy. Sad to see. Until someone brings an attitude, we will continue to lose. Maybe Arch Manning or something. This team plays scared and timid. The coaching staff hasn’t figured this out. My hope is they figure it out next year. We are going into a second decade of being mediocre.

Pretty difficult for Roschon Johnson to step up when he’s on the sidelines watching most of the game. I don’t understand that at all. Bijan is a tremendous talent, but even Vince sat at times.

On a different note, Kenneth walker just won the heisman!!

 

[Chinstrap]

Longhorn Channel group is blasting the team for lack of leadership from the players

I think Sark should let it be known that he is looking hard in the portal and for the rest of the season for some upper class players. And he should post the starting lineup each Monday, based on the previous games performance, like Royal did. I have no way of knowing but I wonder if Texas has some entitlement attitudes going on. The “want to” seems to always be more with the other team.

[Horn2RunAgain]

Difference i saw in sark today was he seemed more intense on the sideline. Either he's feeling internal pressure to not suck here like he did in his previous stops, or he sees the reality of the situation.

He's never gotten a team from point A to point B. No progress achieved. I think it's dawned on him his best isn't going to be good enough here either

 

[Chop]

Exactly my point.

That supposed ‘great’ offensive mind of Sarkisian isn’t getting it done. He knows the OL isn’t good, so why not put his qb on the move.

He continued to pound it inside on 3rd and 4 or 5. Sark isn’t giving his players an opportunity to be successful. He shows little to no emotion. He’s lost this team.

I’m not even going to start on the defense. They are doing exactly what they’ve been taught. This bend no break crap isn’t getting it done. Dang, I said I wasn’t going to do this.

Pass me the tequila Sheila!!

It’s his first year, but thus far it appears Sark:

1. Excels at pre-game preparation and scouting the opponent to scheme against them.
2. His halftime and in game adjustments could use some improvement.

I don’t have the inside information to say, but I also suspect conditioning has at least something to do with our poor late-game performance.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Kenneth Walker III deserves the Heisman. Michigan was rolling until Walker put Sparty on his back. Sorry but Bijon is not that guy. I know defenses key on him but you think they didnt do that to Ricky? Or Earl? To those guys it didnt matter.

 

[Chop]

I didnt wanna mention it before because I so want Sark to succeed but when I heard he was showing motivational videos to the team I was like, 'uh oh'.

If we could just coin the right catchy slogan and post it around everywhere…

On the flip side, with the body language from some of our players in the 2nd half don't be surprised if we lose some talent to the portal... why stay as part of this chit show when you can go play for a winning program like bailor.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

We’ll at least make a bowl game—even in year 1 of the Sark regime.

WE'RE TEXAS.

Not Tulane. Raise our expectations a bit

Indeed. No more Heisman talk for him, nor should there be any.

They had much better o-lines

This is the part I hate. Your post is spot on, but damn it hurts

Why would they want those lo....oops, not allowed to say that. Those guys, why would they want them? Those unproductive, not really good player type guys.

What talent and where? All I saw today was a team below Baylor’s ability on both sides of the ball.

Ricky and Earl had offensive lines

I say this all the time give Sark time to recruit.
Many great coaches have started with bad records.
I think Jimmy Johnson was 1-15 his first year withe the cowboys.
Good grief

Good point.

So, we are all supposed to go about our business and not be sick and got dang tired of watching double digit leads being blown and being right back in the 1980s and 1990s? And, we are supposed to not put those thoughts down in writing on a message board that should encourage an exchange of frustration amongst like minded fans when the team sucks? We can spend money on merchandise, travel, hotels maybe, tickets, food, etc., but then we must just shut up?

Is that right?

I'm tired of this response (not a personal attack).

That's our last 4 class rankings per 247 composite. If we can't do better than this with who is on our team then it's ALL on coaching not recruiting. We can have top 5 classes every year but what difference will it make?

 

[horninchicago]

Basically

Yeah, seems that way for some around here.

 

[Monahorns]

There is some psychology malaise that has to be removed. Part of it is lack of accountability. Probably the biggest part.

Casey’s been a bit off on his throws ever since he hurt his hand several games back. Card is going to need better protection, but I bet he’ll get his (second) chance.
