Great win for UT. Coach Strong pounded the rock all game long.

lol @ Oklahoma

[pgardn]

So we get the Oline and Dline to play and magic happens...

Also, no TOs and very few penalties.

Go figure what it takes to win.
There really is nothing better than beating OU.

You could not have had a more PERFECT scene for the perception of this program.

Texas had seven sacks all season coming into this game.

They had six today.

Yup our D-Line was the MVP today. Along with Heard.

Dude! Texas vs OU isn't just any "one game". With this win, he definitely gets another year and the team and this program
wlll be better for it

[Biggems]

one helluva game. I wonder if the performance today, along with the post game festivities will do anything to help recruiting.

I am very happy today. I haven't enjoyed a Longhorns game in quite a while.

A few things that did bother me though.......Heard needs to stop taking sacks when he has the opportunity to toss it out of bounds and save yardage. I did not like the 3rd down running call inside the 10, it was doomed from the start, and thus we ended up barely getting 3. I would have preferred play action with Heard either throwing it or using his magic to make things happen. Finally, After being all over Mayfield in the 1st half, we sat back on D for much of the 2nd half and he took OU down the field a few times. But, when we added pressure again, we dominated. I wish we would have kept up the pressure in the 3rd and early 4th.

A great game, a great win, loved the huge rushing totals........HOOK EM

This team could easily be 4-2, and last time I checked recruiting ends in February. I'm not worried. Strong pretty much solidified his job for next season. You can keep fucking that chicken though.

[DMX7]

Stong has more BCS bowl wins as a head coach than Sumlin.

[pgardn]

The Good:

Both lines played incredible in comparison to what has been happening. We were actually beating people on both fronts.

No holding or illegal procedure on the Oline . (That I remember)

The Dline,with guys lots of subbing, was getting a big push.

Conversions on Third down was massive (have not looked at the starts)

The snap, the punt, and the coverage, was decent!

I Give Norvell a lot of credit this game. I think he probably had a good game plan for both groups.

The receivers and RBs made some really good blocks.

The Bad:

We had only 10 men on the field one play giving them a nice gain and putting us on our heals.

The shotgun snapping was horrid most of the first half.

Rose still has bad hair and appears to still have accuracy problems.

Bad snap on extra point again.

We used timeouts unnecessarily during the first half due to continued confusion.

Heard is taking off too quickly now instead of showing patience or throwing the ball away. When Heard does pull the ball down during appropriate scenarios that kid can get the corner. OU was horrible on the contain (unlike TCU) and he got us some huge first downs.

Since we are rolling out all these negative stats about Strong with the losses, blowouts, etc. here's a couple I found:

Strong was 7-6 his first year at Louisville. The next season he started out 2-4. He finished that season 5-1.

After the midpoint of that second season he went 28-5 over the rest of his time at Louisville.

Give the man time.

So here is what I have been thinking about this whole mess.

1. You don't fire Strong after 2 years unless you have a badass coach already signed sealed and delivered.
2. If you decide to keep strong, you commit to him for 2 more seasons, if he is on shaky ground he will never get a high quality staff in place to turn this around thus why give him another single year to begin with?

Now that we have beaten Oklahoma

1. He ain't getting fired unless something goes terribly wrong.
2. He should be given 2 more years no matter what.
3. He still needs to evaluate his staff and make changes. I highly doubt Watson sticks around, things are looking up for Wickline and Brick.

I watched this play about 20 times, I watched it in super slo mo and even in reverse. Most of our oline never gets off a block on this run. From left to right. Left tackle engages his man for about a second but he runs himself out of the play and just trots. Left Guard throws a block and engages a linemen long enough to keep him out of the play. Center gets his paw on a linebacker and slows him just enough to keep him out of the play. probably the key block by a linemen. Right guard, just runs forward and never touches a soul. Right tackle throws a block that actually establishes the LOS for Texas.

TE - Caleb Bluiette blocks two guys on this play, and it's the only reason this play works. He first engages a DB who ends up going around the block and running himself out of the play, he then scrapes off and crushes a linebacker and creates a lane for the runningback to run through. Literally that is all the blocking that took place on that play, the rest is poor angles and guys missing tackles.

This play works because:

1. It was well designed and perfectly timed.
2. The respect they have for Heard as a runner
3. Foreman is a badass runner
4. Key block by TE
5. Oklahoma forgot how to tackle and took poor pursuit angles.

5. Oklahoma forgot how to tackle and took poor pursuit angles.

Number 1 is why Norvell helped win this game for us.

The two Oklahoma players taking bad angles and destroying each other was for the final 70 yards. I will chalk that up to Foreman's sneaky speed. You also need to look at the Swoopes goaliine plays. The blocking and push was excellent on many of them. We pancaked more players this game than all of the others combined, I counted two (j/k). Spread offensive tactics don't require lineman to hold blocks long, they are designed to get players with speed into the open quickly so you have more man on man situations. Deception and quick decisions are hugely important. This play showed what the spread CAN do. TCU read everything we did along with our horrid execution. Thank God we have some talented guys carrying the ball. Norvell gets the spread, Watson did not.

As the season goes forward my hope is Heard and the line get better and better at executing this. We could use DAje back as well, and he needs to bring his hands with him.

I also think it is it is important to note that Oklahoma has been starting slowly in a number of games and then taking over. We survived them waking up and then smacked them right back.

[pgardn]

Just not on Strong's nuts like the rest of you. He's gotta prove it first. One win does not change the recruiting outlook.

You think we are sold on him? With special teams and so many logistical errors? No way.

People like you who panic immediately and head to the door for a start over are the worst at building. It is highly possible the job is too big for Strong and his current staff. So we look for improvement for all involved. There is NO Jim Harbaugh for us who inherits a very good defense, and then puts an adequate offense together with pro caliber staffing. This coach does not exist for us.

So who do you replace Strong with NOW so we can start recruiting NOW?

[pgardn]

It's so weird how the outlook changes from week to week going from despair in week 1 to hope in weeks 2-3, and back to despair again.

but losing 50-7 with that talent is inexcusable. I don't know who they would get, but he needs to go. Maybe go after a guy like Friesz

If this board ever had to actually get anything built or accomplished TOGETHER it would be an absolute ClusterF.

[Vito Corleone]

so if he gets blown out TCU style vs Baylor, Tech, and Kansas State, you still think he should be given 2 years?

You have two choices in this matter.

you fire him now, or give him two more years. Giving a coach one year is making him and the program a dead fish. I saw this with Mack, everyone knew he was on his way out and when Mack was trying to bring in assistants to replace guys he fired, no one wanted to come. He was being turned down left and right and he had to hire guys that were questionable like Diaz.

It will be worse with charlie. Lets say Watson, Wickline decide to move on to other jobs and we fire Brick. What top assistant is going to jump at the opportunity to be at Texas for one year?

No the choice has been the same since before Saturday's win. you either cut the life line now or you give him two more years. By year 4 if you don't see enough improvement, you cut the life line as soon as you are ready.

And yes, this win did change everything for Charlie. Even if it was a fluke win and we are still staring at fools gold, you have to give him another year which brings us back to my original point, if you have to give him one, they you have to give him two.

Why was this win so important?

1. It showed that Charlie didn't lose the lockerroom.
2. It gave the younger players something to believe in.
3. It gave the fans something to believe in.
4. It has given the team confidence.
5. It is something to build upon.
6. Recruits are seeing now that the younger guys are improving and competing.

At this point you can't justify firing him, not without something that shows he has completely lost the team and his assistants.

[DMX7]

He is not going to get blown out TCU style against Baylor, Tech & Kansas State. In fact, I still think we win two of those three games.

[Hook Em 88]

longhornsRadio: True freshmen accounted for 38% of Texas' tackles. Holton Hill (8), Davante Davis (6) and Malik Jefferson (6) were all top five in tackles.

For not playing much early on Hill and Davis have really done well the last couple of weeks. Them 2 along with Boyd and Deshon make for a good DB group for some time to come. ****** hasn't played much due to injury but he came up with the big kickoff fumble in the first. There's a player we would have liked to have had to begin the season.

If he doesn't finish the year strong, this game will mean nothing to recruits. Wickline and Watson will likely be gone. Even if you give him 2 more years, no top assistants will come. He hasn't proven he can even surround himself with a good staff.

I'm happy I was wrong. You see, being wrong doesn't bother me, I was more worried I was right.

I was actually very happy to see that many players came up to Strong and told him they won this game for him. It told me a lot about the team.


If he doesn't finish the year strong, this game will mean nothing to recruits. Wickline and Watson will likely be gone. Even if you give him 2 more years, no top assistants will come. He hasn't proven he can even surround himself with a good staff.

Point is you can't fire him right now. That is a fact.

Lets say for arguments sake he doesn't finish the year strong, we don't even get to a bowl game, when do you fire him. Your reasoning is that it will affect recruiting, we we actually won't know that until this recruiting cycle is over, I guarantee you what will affect recruiting is firing Strong because it will again give the new staff just about 2 months to try and put a recruiting class together.

We will also likely lose some of our current freshmen class. Our senior class next year would have had to play for 3 different coaches in 4 years here.

My point is, if you were going to fire Strong, you pretty much needed to do it after a blowout loss to Oklahoma and only if you pretty much had your guy already in place as far as an agreement goes. That way he could come right in and start recruiting and salvage the current recruiting class.

By beating Oklahoma, there isn't enough overwhelming evidence that you can justify firing him, even at the end of the year you can't do it. And that brings me back to my original point, if you are going to give him next year, you have to give him two. It doesn't matter if he can or can't hire a staff, if he doesn't bring in the right guys you will know sometime in the middle of year 4, by then no one will say a word when the ax falls. But you have to give him that opportunity.

But let's be real even though the Raiders will probably finish 8-4 or 7-5, Tech was a freak play away from beating the #2 team and be 5-1, ranked in the top 25. I like the path that Kliff is laying out for the future and I like the fact we'll have the Big 12's best QB for the next two years.

TT can beat any Big 12 team any week. They are relevant again after going through some horrible discipline and defensive problems. They always seem to pick up good QBs, receivers, and olineman. And those frustrating little RBs. They get good crowds and support.

We are getting better, but going into Lubbock and trying to beat them with the team we have will be a large task. I would rather they all get food poisoning the week we play them.

Every team in the country can play that game all day long. I could say our team was a couple of plays from placing 2 W's in our win column against Ok State and Cal both teams ranked. That would make our only losses to ND and TCU who were basically Top 10 at the time of play. That sort of talk does no good neither here nor there. I'll admit TT is improving but y'all looked pretty darn good last year around this before things fell apart...

[Hook Em 88]

Yeah. Their emotions turned around on one game.

That's all it takes sometimes. Winning cures all. I'd say it's kind of a big deal when you beat your biggest rival who just so happens to be a Top 10 undefeated team. This was especially important with both teams seemingly headed in complete opposite directions. Just stating the obvious of course.

It'll be a tight game but there is 4 games between now and the matchup against Tech. I'd be much more worried if it was next week. If we can have our defense improve from what they did against OU with better DB and D-line play I'll feel better about our chances. That's assuming we continue to improve.

[Blake]

Every team in the country can play that game all day long. I could say our team was a couple of plays from placing 2 W's in our win column against Ok State and Cal both teams ranked. That would make our only losses to ND and TCU who were basically Top 10 at the time of play. That sort of talk does no good neither here nor there. I'll admit TT is improving but y'all looked pretty darn good last year around this before things fell apart...

i think it's fine to play that what if/if only game to determine how good your program is or it's potential of where it could be.

Ftr, Tech looked pretty shitty in their wins against UTEP and Central Arkansas last year. Penalties, turnovers and bad defense were the big problems. Kliff has done a respectable job of getting 2 of those 3 things cleaned up.

http://crimeblog.dallasnews.com/2015/10/man-stabbed-to-death-on-trail-in-northeast-dallas-suspect-in-custody.html/


Thomas Johnson was angry Monday about his situation in life, police said.

The former Skyline High School Raiders star and Texas A&M was out of football and out of his home. And police say he took out his rage on a jogger he hacked to death at random Monday morning in northeast Dallas.

Authorities said Johnson, 21, admitted to detectives that he used a “large bladed knife” to kill the unidentified jogger just before 8 a.m. on the White Rock Creek Trail.

“It appears Mr. Johnson picked this victim at random. Absolutely random,” Deputy Chief Rob Sherwin said. “He just attacked him. … It’s just very unusual. It’s quite shocking.”

Johnson walked away from the scene and asked a man a few blocks away if he could use his cellphone to call 911, according to an arrest warrant affidavit. Another man had also called 911 and said he saw a man in a hooded sweatshirt hit a jogger several times in the head with a sword.

Police said Johnson told dispatchers that there was a man on the trail “laying down with a sword in his head and not moving.”

[Blake]

Just to add some more wtf to it:


Police also said that Johnson admitted to the murder after he was apprehended. His alleged victim was described as a white male between 25 and 35 years old. The man, who died at a hospital, was one of four people murdered by White Rock Lake on Monday in Dallas, though the attacks don't appear to be connected. Johnson allegedly killed the man as he was running on the White Rock Trail.

None of the deaths were within 5 miles of the lake and two were over 10 miles away. One was on a trail heading north of the lake but not really close, the other they found her vehicle in White Rock Creek but in a section away from the lake.

What is odd is that Dallas police had just released stats showing murder rate down in Dallas and on that day there were 6.

If one is going one is going to use a sword to randomly kill a jogger, the obvious method involves stabbing one's victim in the head. Apparently just hacking away, or merely chopping the head off, is not suitable.

Four people were murdered by the Lake!?!?! WTF!!! I am not familiar with the area, is this like a super freaking scary part of town or something?

Three women were found dead in Dallas on Monday in two separate homicides not far from White Rock Lake, police say.
The first victim, 18-year-old Zoe Hastings, was found about 8:30 a.m. in a creek northeast of the lake. Police had released few details about the other two victims, who were found fatally shot about 4:30 p.m. in Far East Dallas.
Hastings left her home Sunday evening in a white 2007 Honda Odyssey to go to a nearby Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The recent graduate of the Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts was found dead in the minivan after someone reported seeing the vehicle in the creek near Easton Road and East Lake Highlands Drive. She was only minutes from her home and near her church.
Deputy Chief Rob Sherwin said Hastings died of “obvious homicidal violence.” He declined to provide details because he did not want to compromise the investigation.
But police have said her death wasn’t related to the brutal slaying of a jogger along White Rock Creek Trail. Former Texas A&M football player Thomas Johnson, 21, has been arrested in that homicide, which occurred about 8 a.m.

Officers found the two other slain women after responding about 4:30 p.m. to a disturbance at a home in the 2700 block of Millmar Drive in Far East Dallas.
Police confirmed Tuesday that the women were mother and daughter but were withholding their identities until relatives are notified.
The suspect was still at large Tuesday, but police said he's the grandson of a man with whom the women lived. The man told police that after he had asked the women to leave, his grandson became involved in the "domestic dispute" and shot the women dead before fleeing.

Every program has shitty fans (not saying Djohn is a shitty fan), but no program is on such a big stage even when they are down. Being the head coach at Texas is a tough gig, I would liken it to being the coach of the Cowboys, or the coach of the LA Lakers. It seems like every move is under a microscope by both fans and the media.

If Charlie wants out at Texas it won't be for more money or a higher prestige job, it's going to be because ultimately he just couldn't handle the job.

With that said, I have a hard time believing a coach who just won a game where his players came up to him and told him they won that game for him, would walk out on said players. If he did, it would be the ultimate slap in the face to the relationship he has built with them.

“Coach Vaughn actually Face Timed me,” Anderson said. “I really liked that we got to video chat because it was like face-to-face. He was just saying that they really need me and want me up there. He said that I can make an early impact at safety.”

@ComplexMag: Texas high school player stabs dad because he didn’t want to play football anymore: http://t.co/QCmS7GQ0MS http://t.co/D04b273bJC

FWIW, Scout says he will "for sure" visit UT and they don't think he ends up at Michigan.

Whoa...

I thought the Harbaugh tide might envelope the nation,or at the very least, Michigan. Maybe the Wolverines have a big list of LBs ahead of him and entering and would rather he look elsewhere?

Apparently Michigan talks to him about moving him to FB, but he wants to stay at LB. There were also some talks about Michigan denying him an early enrollment, which Texas wouldn't. If he has the grades, I don't see why Michigan wouldn't accept him in?

Quotes from 2017 TE Major Tennison of Bullard after committing to Texas last night (OrangeBloods):

"I talked to coach (Jeff) Traylor earlier in the day. We started talking about it, he said there was good potential of an offer," Tennison said. "Since I'm in the 2017 class, they would like for me to commit. He told me to talk to my parents about it. I really liked Texas when I went and visited and I'm a Texas fan for sure. I talked to my parents, told him all about that and how I felt, then talked to coach (Charlie) Strong and here we are."

"I've just always grown up loving Texas, watching them on TV," Tennison said. "When the opportunity was presented to play for the Texas Longhorns, it's hard not to do it."

OrangeBloods saying the staff stopped by Trophy Club Byron Nelson to see OL Kellen Diesch this morning.

So 2017 DE Lagaryonn Carson of Liberty-Eylau has committed to Texas, according to Scout.

Strong also saw OL Denzel Okafor of Lewisville, per Scout.

[TFloss32]

Also from Scout, Coach Watson checked in on 2017 RB JK Dobbins of La Grange.

[TFloss32]

OrangeBloods saying the staff stopped by Trophy Club Byron Nelson to see OL Kellen Diesch this morning.

24/7 saying the staff has Diesch as a priority right now even though he's leaning towards A&M and Tennessee.

Delance and Okafor are also in that group of high priority targets.

I thought that head coaches could only visit once per year and they normally did it right before signing day.

[Vito Corleone]

I thought that head coaches could only visit once per year and they normally did it right before signing day.

Your thinking of in-home visits. The head coach can stop by the high school any time he wants to.

[TFloss32]

I thought that head coaches could only visit once per year and they normally did it right before signing day.

The head coach gets one off-campus contact day where he can actually talk to the recruit when he visits a high school or goes to their home.

Going to watch a practice or talk to high school coaches is considered an evaluation and that's also allowed once during the fall contact period.

[TFloss32]

Scout reporting the official visit for S Deontay Anderson is now January 15th.

He will visit Ole Miss and LSU the following two weeks before National Signing Day.

[pgardn]

Get it?

It only works if he is a RB.


For the both of you comedians deciding to use his parent's dreadful decision.
Ill wait till we have him gaffed and in the boat.

[TFloss32]

Per Scout, Coach Watson also checked on 2017 QB Sam Ehlinger and 2017 LB Levi Jones (brother of Cayleb) of Austin Westlake.

Some info on OL Jean Delance of North Mesquite from one of the national writers (Bartow) at 24/7:

-he will take an official visit to Michigan on November 28th followed by an official to Alabama on December 12th.

-Texas will get an official visit, but no date has been set.

-going into these official visits, Delance's list of favorites has UT at the top, followed by Michigan, Alabama and A&M.

-both his mother and grandmother will play a huge role in his decision and they prefer UT because of Strong.

Jean looks good, but I assume we have almost no chance with OT G. Little.

Your assumption would be correct, however he was at the OU game.

I think that has been pretty evident for a while. I figured as much when I heard he had a handler. It also is pretty telling that he is leaning heavily toward Ole Miss.

Eventually they are going to get caught and have the book thrown at them. And yes, I'm pretty sure they are doing some shady stuff.

Former WR Kendall Sanders has been found not guilty of sexual assault.

http://www.hookem.com/2015/10/16/kendall-sanders-found-not-guilty-in-sexual-assault-trial/?ecmp=statesman_social_twitter_2014_bevobeat_sfp

Another former UT receiver, Montrel Meander, is set to go to trial on the same charge as Sanders. It remains to be seen how district attorney Andrea Austin will proceed, as the Sanders case appeared to be the stronger of the two in the state’s eyes. The woman admitted to having casual sex with Meander and did not initially identify him as her attacker.

Ole Miss? That's so shady. He looks like an instant first round pick so it's no surprise he may have a handler already.

[ColinB]

No way Strong let's Sanders back on the team. I'd be very surprised if that happened.

Exactly. Anyone who thinks Shaka can't recruit is out of their mind. He pulled off a recruiting trifecta with only months on the job here at Texas. He had to re-recruit Kerwin and Eric Davis who had pledged under Rick Barnes, he convinced Tevin to flip to Texas and had a hand in persuading our best player Taylor to return to Texas after considering jumping to the NBA. That's an unbelievable job at this point early on.
