Message Board Geniuses – Who’s your daddy edition

The Hamburgers said on the SEC Network on the night they became official members of the SEC, “We want Georgia.” I think they have found out they don’t really want Georgia anymore.

For Mcm23, we find the combination of a triple letter score with a Q and a double word score that empties the tile for a 50 point bonus every time we play them.

Let’s let Kirby have the final word:

Joey Volchko, Have a Game

Hopefully you watched a masterpiece last night from Omaha.

It was so good, that fellow Georgia Baseball players changed their Instagram profiles to Joey’s picture.

His first pitch was 96 mph and his last pitch…96 mph. On 117 pitches. I’m thinking he had some adrenaline pumping through him, no?

Meanwhile, it’s nice to know we continue to make the Horns keep pointing down, and down, and down.

Go Dawgs!

Who’s your daddy? – OmaDawgs edition

This appearance can’t have been a good omen for this next version of the “everything school.” Kirby has official visit season going on and still found his way to support the Diamond Dawgs against Texas in Omaha.

Does the entire Texas athletic apparatus wake up in cold sweats when the red & black is on the other sideline?

Oh yeah, we’re the dominant women’s track & field program in the country now, too.

Message Board Geniuses: This Aggression Will Not Stand, Man

Chaser:

Look, Sark has some reason to be bitter towards Ole Miss, particularly Pete Golding, his former counterpart during their times together with Saban’s Alabama.

According to Wickersham, as Manning’s recruitment came down to the wire, Pete Golding, then Alabama’s defensive coordinator (who now holds the same job at Ole Miss), invoked Sarkisian’s struggles with alcoholism in an attempt to sway him away from the Longhorns while on a call with Manning and his circle of trust. Wickersham explained the moment while speaking with Pablo Torre.

“Pete, who is friends with Sark, says on this call, ‘I love Sark, he’s my best friend.’ And then he’s like oh my god, do I go there? And he did. He goes, ‘I hope he can stay sober,’” Wickersham explained.

After the call, Manning’s high school coach Nelson Stewart called Golding directly, saying “Pete, that’s f—ed up!”

Don Saban, with two henchman at his side, circa 2019.

Unlike the former OC he took over for, Sark made his recovery and didn’t turn it into a narcissistic showcasing of his new namaste philosophies on life. Just went back to work and got right. Good for him.

And I ask…what’s the matter with basket weaving?

Especially the underwater course? I declare!

Don’t Call It a Comeback, No, It’s a HUGE Comeback: Lady Dawgs Take Down Top Seeded Oklahoma in Softball in Biggest Comeback in SEC History

Don’t look now, but the Lady Dawgs are on a tear.

Down 5-0, they came roaring back with ten unanswered runs…and not to be outdone by their Diamond Dawg counterparts, but these girls can RAKE.

Go Dawgs!

The Ladies take on the Longhorns today at 7:30 pm on ESPN.

Also, don’t forget…the Diamond Dawgs take on the Corndogs today at Foley at 6 pm, on ESPN SEC+.

Having your cake and eating it, too – Sark edition

Josh Pate serves up a softball to Sarkisian. I understand Pate wants access over being a real interviewer, but the follow-up questions that could come from this were many (yes, he has done that with Kirby as well).

Listening to Sark talk about culture of team first while he parks Lamborghinis in front of the football facility for high school recruiting visits makes me laugh.

Refugees, discuss.

Here we go again

The national talking heads are so desperate to be right about the Archduke. On another topic, Josh Pate haz a sad about where John Mateer is on the list.

If Manning’s stats from prior year were shown without his name compared to the others at the top of the list especially against opponents with a pulse, would he be anywhere close to the top?

Refugees, assemble and discuss.

About Those Lambos and Longhorns

Remember those days when they showed the Longhorns rolling out sports cars and huge wads of cash? And how Texas could just lock in those five stars by the buckets and they’d be GUARANTEED that the SEC run through Austin? Right? RIGHT?

Welp. Doesn’t look like it’s working…two years in, zero titles, and three losses to Georgia in the process while they poach Georgia recruits with the big money and sports cars.

Seems to be working well. Keep it up, Sark…and, as always, horns down.

Manning Up

Oh, Benevolent Archduke! How grateful are the Longhorns for your kind generosity in parsing out portions of your coffers in order to bring Agent Muschamp to Austin!

Archie, you’re going to need to give it all up if you want the offensive line and weapons you’ll need to win the SEC.

Is it really charity, or is it player evaluation that warranted a lesser pay out? Time shall tell.

Lower the Boom

Well, well. I guess time off for family wasn’t all that it’s cracked up to be, was it?

His Vanderbilt son, Whit, was listed as a sophomore, so maybe he’s portaling to Texas, too. Some food for thought, though, before we rush to judgment that this will be the secret sauce to get Texas past Georgia.

Yeah, I don’t think defense was the problem for Texas, to be honest. Maybe Will can call Bobo to help develop Archduke up a little bit.
