Longhorn News/Discussion (Non-Recruiting)

[Hiwood]

When the defense is fresh they’re not terrible.  When the offense starts stalling our front 4 gets worn down.  They get pressure typically, but very few sacks.  When they’re on the field for most of the second half it gets worse on the pressure…then the weak scheme in the back end gets exposed.    Our db’s never seem to track the ball.  Heck I think Ryan Watts was suprised by the interception.  At times DJ looks like an AA, at times he looks like a freshman in HS out there.  
 

I want sark to do well, it means that Texas football is getting to where it needs to be.  He’s got to prove he can do it though.  I AM willing to give him the time.  

I totally agree our DB's are horrible at playing the ball, I think they are being taught poor technique, I also think thats why we are in a soft zone so often, we have very few guys who can cover on an island and shut down the opponents WR1...There used to be a day when UT was DBU, but those days are long gone. I see Overshown in coverage, WTH I want him breathing down the QB's neck ready to apply the boom, our DB's give up way too many completions in front of them and then make the tackle, but by then its a first down

No mentioned at least nor me Sark. Some one said need a leader so I mentioned Rising. IMO he wouldbe aleader if he had stayed at Texas.

Mixed up a couple of different posts in my response. My mistake. Thanks for the correction. 
 

Agree completely that Rising is a leader for Utah and would have liked to see what he could have done after Sam.

At least he's accepting responsibility. A nice change from the Tom days

Shouldn't it have been addressed after the first week?

If no practice today, how did they start getting ready for K. St?

Was doing some reading and saw a chart of active college football coaches winning percentages.  Sarkesian is ranked 78 out 131.  His overall winning percentage is .560 and current winning percentage with UT is .526

I wonder what most fans would say if they knew those numbers but did not know who they belonged to?

Game plan, reviewing tape, getting the practice squad ready, position meetings...just a few that I can think of off the top of my head.

When he was hired and I saw his winning percentage it was very disappointing. Then I fell in line like everyone else and bought in. Now at 3 power 5 schools he’s barely above 500. Did anyone on here think 10-10 with would be good? The guy is in the process of failing for the 3rd time and makes the same stubborn mistakes over and over. I’m not saying fire him now but, what has he shown to anyone that he is a winning head coach?
