The #1 thing the new coach has to address

[4th. down]

I’ve never bought it either

According to this, OSU with 6 and TCU with 6 but 63-17 kinda stops that injury BS and Kill continued on with it in the post game presser. Injuries and we're young and we gotta grow them up and then go about our business and do the things we need to do......for the last 5 years and good for him as he walks away with about $65mil. A sod buster from Kansas, he did ok.

We have a meat head mentality in the s&c program instead of conditioning the body for the appropriate wears and tears of college football.

All our dude cares about is inflated weight room numbers so we can brag about it

I’d gladly welcome an endurance challenge vs. our annual world’s strongest man competition.

To show us how far off the rails we've become, GP said, Max can squat 600 lbs. Now, think about that for a minute, the HC talking about his starting QB, the only thing he can say is my QB can squat 600 lbs. and GP was very proud of that......really sad we've come to this point.

I wonder if he has at all considered a position change. He's a hell of an athlete, I really think he could be a big-time player at some sort of H-back type thing or even as a safety if he puts his mind to it. Don't think he's a poor QB, but he might have more upside somewhere else. Best QB traits are toughness and downhill running, lol.

I always heard it referred to as a slump buster, at least that what Mark Grace called them. Wait, might be thinking of a different topic.

Wrong. The #1 thing that the new coach needs to address are my seats in the stadium. I've been wronged by TCU in so many ways but none worse than my seats which aren't at all consistent with the high level fan that I am.

Fix it Napier! I expect a personal conversation with you on the matter by the end of the month.

Hard to build depth with the transfer portal! Kids don’t start they leave.

Maybe you & Nap could talk it out over a breakfast consisting of pumpkin pancakes. I'm sure that will seal the deal.

Trying to put too much weight on slender fast bodies leads to lots of problems. I won’t miss watching 5’9” 165 pound kids trying to “bulk” up so they can compete in the Big 12. This is for sure a major area of needed improvement.

Do we know for certain that it's our strength & conditioning program?

It begins with the recruit and it's under GPs direction......speed. Smaller and faster players that are not built for a lot of weight/muscle. We've been recruiting the wrong type of player for defense. Now offense, that's different, we have the size but not the muscle and footwork/agility for the offensive line and probably not the coaching for that unit either......on second thought, no, we don't have the coaching for it. As big as our offensive line is, it cannot hold up to the OU and OSU defensive lines and LBs. We try and take safeties and rebuild them physically for a LB position and we see that doesn't work. It all goes back to where the buck stops. I think Napier changes all of that, Dykes, don't think so.

I think Gary was right…it was going to take 4-5 years to build up the requisite depth to win consistently. He just didn’t do it.

He did indeed do it, hauling home a cheezit championship with his 3rd string qb. He never spoke of years 6+.

Genius!

Here's all we really know for certain. What the current staff has been doing isn't working. So we can either replace each person one at a time to try and isolate which one is most guilty or replace them all and start fresh.

When I look at him and the way he plays I see a similarity with James Casey (Azle, Rice, and a couple of NFL teams).
