First year comparisons:

PPG:
Knowles 32.46
Nardo 29.0

Rushing PG
Knowles 185.4
Nardo 174

Passing PG
Knowles 267.08
Nardo 267.54

Yards PG
Knowles 452.2
Nardo 441.5

That’s nice, so they are about the same, both terrible first years. I can promise you Nardo will not have a top 5 D in the next two years.

Texas is the 31st ranked passing offense in the country......nowhere near the best passing attack.

I don’t think anyone’s arguing. Honestly, They were better than us at virtually every position.

How different is the game if we had an offense like we used to and could have stayed on the field and scored with them?

Plenty of work to do all around.

My lawn is in below average condition thanks to my lovely dogs.

You’re absolutely right, I can’t dictate that. So if morons want to continue those statements, then be my guest. People who genuinely know sports and in particular the coaching side of it would 100% agree with my statement and laugh at those who make the statements that have been made today. You start firing coordinators after one season when they’ve done nothing morally wrong and in good standing with the University, you’ll find yourself in a bad spot as a program almost immediately and that’s a fact.

His lawn is a f'n disaster. Here's a pic of him mowing. Couldn't get a pic of the dogs dropping deuces but they were far from lovely.
I'm told his lawn care skills are superior to his pompous coaching skills though.
Yea! Haha! Like the dick on a dog!

Oh man, you got me there buddy.

Maybe, maybe not. But wanting the man fired after one season is about as ignorant as it gets.

But I've seen on this very board, numerous times, how Sark was just an overrated retread. Get our asses kicked and he's a genius.

Sark has become a much better coach after his internship under Saban. He said Saban taught him to do everything right. It shows. But I hate Texas, if that needs to be said.

Jesus. Some of you continue to treat Nardo with kid's gloves. I don't blame Nardo.....I blame Gundy. What an absolutely baffling and ridiculous hire. Gundy to himself: hold my beer.

Sure did coach. What are your credentials, BTW?

How is that related to what I said in any way? I think you’re spot on, lot of work to do across the board.

Totals and reality are two different things.......

I thought they were higher than that though.

He’s spiraling.

 

[Backin82]

You know what, @Backin82 ?

I’m sorry.

Not because I think you’re right. But because the spirit of the season tells me it’s a time to be kind to our fellow men.

I apologize for being aggressive. We’re all frustrated with this game. We live to fight another day.

Happy holidays, bud.

No worries. I understand the frustration, and know we all express it differently. I appreciate the apology. I'd like to think your words and mine are both born out of the same desire to see OSU succeed; just with different perspectives.

Hope you and yours have a happy holiday as well.

You wanna talk ball? Good lord is that supposed to be intimidating? I was just curious as to your level of expertise. Jr. High? HS? College?

It wasn't. I definitely misconstrued the meaning of your post. My apologies, sir.

Again, we had multiple freshmen on the field on defense today. Coaches deserve blame but so do the players. They were out of position at times due to them making wrong reads and other things. Sark did an excellent job of game planning. Texas has excellent players who are also experienced. Put that against young guys in a new scheme and you have the chance of the results you watched today. We will be just fine, sky is not falling. I do think it time for changes on the offensive side.

We must have watched different games. The sky fell, the offense wasn't the main problem, and the defensive scheme got consistently beat worse than any game I've ever seen. I can certainly agree that youth in the secondary will have some busts, but it was all game long from both LBs and secondary. That's scheme, not random coverage busts...

Nardo has a lot of work to do.

Well, you kind of came off as a smart a$$, so I apologize if you weren’t. Coached at a high level in high school football. Was very blessed to do so and loved it. Had desires to go collegiate at one point but the amount of time away from your family just wasn’t worth it to me.

Sounds good man.

It’s not that I want him fired, I didn’t want him hired to begin with. He’s no guru. Everyone who thought he’d be in over his head was proven right. This DC job should not be for guys with no experience to come learn on the job.

With guys like Oliver, Martin, Black and so on, that’s too much talent to be the worst defense in the B12. Let’s just hope these kids and parents like the guy, because if I’m a player and the head coach is apologizing every other week for bad game plans, I’m probably not going to be real confident I’m being developed as a player.
