And you have to join the Longhorn foundation to even apply for season tix. If people are willing to pay that price, go ahead. It actually keeps a nice paycheck coming for your's truly; not $5 million nice, but it pays the mortgage. Texas' home games were pretty boring to watch this year.

Even mini-Ditka

Not now, Lundberg. I have a meeting with the Bobs.

I voted stay. I'm not crazy about my vote, but I have seen improvement in the team. Dodge gets 4 years. We hired a high school coach, and his learning curve has a wider arc than most. But I'm not voting for Dodge so much as I am voting for Deloach. If we bring in another head coach, he will most likely bring in a new DC. I have a lot of faith that Gary Deloach can get our defense back to a dominant force. I want to believe that next year Dodge and Deloach will have turned the corner.

No, I think he's done gambling. I hope you weren't betting on Mean Green football.

I went. I can't report much b/c I only saw about 5 minutes of the 2nd half, but we looked sloppy.

Mean Joe Green talks to my morning anchor.

You need them to wade through the pile of crap that is Mean Green football.

I don't care what the stripper tells you, there is no sex in the champagne room.

Darrell Dickey?

2nd half and DeLoach is out of the press box and on the sidelines. I'm sure this will fix every problem we've had.

Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.

I'm your 6'6" defensive specialist. Just don't let me put the ball on the ground. It will go off my foot. I'm interested in this, but doubt seriously I can make it. Are we looking at any particular time frame?

This could have been posted on the football forum, but here goes: Mike leach loop

In the GMG podcast, RV stated that he wanted more wins, but he wanted more than anything to be competitive in the games we were supposed to be. Getting blown out every game is not acceptable. We've been competitive. Dodge will be here next year, I believe. And he needs to win at least half his games to hang on to his job. I wasn't necessarily giddy about him getting the job, and he has made some mistakes along the way, the biggest was bringing his HS coaches with him, but a coach gets 4 years to build a program.

I didn't know DeLoach played at Kilgore. Just another reason to like him.

Not just conference, but NCAA. In our case it's probably the jumbotron feed, which is also the internet feed.

heard Ricky Williams on some national talk sho last week. He said of PC, "I look for P-Cobbs to get more touches."

Just wondering if the addition of a strength and conditioning coach has made THAT big of an impact?

YES

yeah. I'm listening to KWRD.

You have to include the '88 Texas game. Yeah, that Tech game sucked. I drove to Amarillo after that cursing and beating on my steering wheel the whole way. Ugggh, I'm getting an ulcer just thinking about it.

Just wondering if there were any out of town viewing options for the game Saturday. I don't see it on ESPN360.

I think the better question is, what happens when he succeeds? Dickey was given a long time to build a program. When he finally had some success he was not able to take advantage of it. He was never a fan favorite or media darling, so when the wins stopped coming an easy rift was made. Assuming Dodge has actually turned the corner (.500 record), will he be soured from fan criticism, pressure from the administration, and media scrutiny, or will he remain the positive, upbeat, tough but lovable father figure he projects? More importantly, will the wins continue?

In college it was "The Beast". Now it's "Pearl Light" when I'm working in the yard.
