    He can't cover it up, so he ignores it, and someone who hasn't followed UT football this year will think that's what happened.

    Remember, reporters don't only slander / lie / falsify / make up / get wrong the stories where you are familiar with the actual details. They do that for all their stories.

    Also, the piece is far too easy on He-Man, buying into the "oh so close, only 13 or 14 or whatever number of points away from being undefeated", while ignoring 3 games that Texas could easily have lost - the miracle comeback against TT, the OT win against OSU where a penalty by them in OT moved them from 1st and goal at about the 5 to 2nd or 3rd and long, and then gave it up on downs.

    Or West VA, where a blatant interference by the safety on their WR in the end zone on either 3rd or 4th down could have been called, with 1st and goal for the win coming up next.

    Texas could more easily be 3-6 than 9-0.

    Me neither. It's a long fall from UM with NCs at two different schools to an OC who's never been a HC. Hard pass for me.

    Here's an answer and it's undeniably a racial issue. How in the heck would a black coach coming in be able to politically and in any other way support The Eyes of Texas? If our traditions are important, then it has to be a non-black/white coach (or a unicorn black coach who has conservative values, that'd go over well). Charlie came in with a "clean up the program" task and maybe did that but lost more than he won. Get another black coach in here and every press conference will have to do with BLM or some other social issue, either brought up by the press or by the new black coach himself. I don't consider this to be racist, just fact. That guy can maybe coach but in this environment, it will never be about football at UT, and, if anyone wants to win 10 games a year, Texas won't hire Tony Elliot or anyone that remotely resembles him. Will agree that Texas could hire a flaming liberal like the Spurs coach and every press conference will be about BLM/etc/etc as well.

    Besides her tits, she is useless. She would make Herman's SJW antics look like child play.

    I call ********.
    We have former black players supporting The Eyes.
    You paint with too broad a brush.
    Shaka seems to have negotiated this well.
    A black coach can support The Eyes and not necessarily be conservative.
    Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;)

    This is easy:

    The pride of Texas is upon you
    All the the livelong day
    The rise of Texas is upon you
    You cannot get away

    Do not think you can escape it
    At night or early in the morn
    The pride of Texas is upon you
    As equals we are born

    As long as we are changing lyrics, might as well change Texas Fight.

    I do not want The Eyes of Texas changed, but if we could get a$m out of Texas Fight, I might could get behind that.

    Years ago on the phone, I said "might could" to a friend. My wife went crazy. "Miiiiiiight could, miiiight could" in an overly exaggerated Texas twang. My friend couldn't understand what she was doing.

    I’m for leaving what isn’t wrong alone. If they alter anything about the Eyes, I won’t come back.

    Sometimes married couples make unnecessary adjustments just because they love each other and want to build rather than tear down the relationship. Opponents usually fight over every damn inconsequential thing. I’m not married to every little word in TEOT. We should all be married to our fellow human brothers and sisters.

    I’m only married to my wife. Otherwise it’s incest or infidelity. We have a great tradition at The University of Texas at Austin. The Eyes is not racist and anyone saying otherwise can eat **** and die.

    If you want something else, go elsewhere.

    The problem with sides is that they are frequently wrong and never worth losing your credibility for. I’m not woke but I do think we are all equal and I don’t mind demonstrating my commitment to openness and equality.
