Texas is one SEC spot above Arkansas in the Learfield Director’s Cup while spending $325 million. Arkansas spent $167 million. What If they gave out trophies for ROI?

Sark is a good coach. I’m sure he is frustrated with Mannings mechanics


And he waited until the 3rd year to get frustrated?

Gators better lock up Lane in case that happens.

He's already working on a 10-year $250 million deal to go to Gainesville. We've known this for some time. MOU signed. Just waiting on November to ink the paper.

That begs the question what is going on inside Mannings head? Of course Sark did not wait 3 years.

Some good Texas reporters need to dig and uncover what is messing Manning up.

He has all the physical intangibles. So, it must be mental?

Texas can beat Kentucky on their run game and defense. They could line their 3rd string RB up at QB and just just run the Wildcat all day. While Arch hasn't been playing well, Calzada is by far the worst QB in the conference.

You have no capacity to assign any of this to inept coaching.

I find it amusing as people reach into the ether to find anything other than possibly Sark doesn't have it together.

You know... people's lives are sometimes reflected in their job performance as well. Is he dry, is he wet? Is he divorced, is he married? Wth is that crazy arse suit he is wearing? Why is he yelling don't touch me again mother fricker at security personnel?

Geez

We can't seem to get to that step, because that would then call Sark into question.

Agreed, but they didn’t. Things should start clicking more this week than they were last week.

Sam Houston is the only Texas FBS school worse than UTEP so there’s a chance.

12 UTEP
13 Sam Houston

Oh well. I knew this had to come to a head at some point. I just didn't expect Arch to be the thing that exposed Sark. I figured Arch would carry it a couple more years.

There’s a difference between booing a single person and the entire offense.

UTrannies booing their offense due to shitty QB play is definitely nothing new in Austin.

Poor backup QB knows he has no shot at playing time, regardless of how badly Arch Manning sucks

If Arch isn't injured (and I think its a possibility but I can't fathom while there's been no acknowledgment) then it suggests that Sark is a either a poor judge of talent or he was afraid to take on the hype train. Neither a good sign.

True. That offense that LSU keeps trotting out every week probably would have been ran out of the stadium by now.

At least BK has said the Nuss is dealing with something. Which makes sense with the plays they are calling. Lots of check downs and short pass plays.

Sark is stating Manning perfectly healthy.

Some of you need to fully grasp the environment of today's college football. There's nothing "college" about it.

* Fans are paying crazy money for a ticket to a game.

* Players are making even crazier money while they spend a few years auditioning for the NFL.

* Players walk away and change teams at will. There is no element of loyalty.

* Players are not your fellow students or fellow alums. They are your overpaid hired hands.


If you have a problem with booing, then the dumbass is on you.


If you want booing to stop, charge $20 a ticket and trot real college students out on the field.
