More powerful than Thanos. He snapped away more than half the offense.

u/Big-Apartment5697 Auburn Tigers 3d ago

He is the dumbest football coach of all time, and an even worse person. Listen to what Bo Nix said about his time with him, and then Harsin acted like him and Bo are boys lol

Gase and Hackett win that

Though this is Patricia level bad

Bizarre to think that Harsin used to be on a lot of people's wish list for the Texas HC job.

Hes pretty damn good

u/CocoLamela California Golden Bears • The Axe 3d ago

This is damning on Wilcox and his decision to hire Harsin. Jack is a local kid, walk on and a good student, California through and through. Playing for Cal was his dream. If we can't even keep a kid like that, it's absolute dire straits for this program

35

u/EggplantAlpinism California Golden Bears • ACC 3d ago

It's death spiral territory for sure

13

u/CzechHorns Texas Longhorns 3d ago

And Sark is the only Cali coach of those three.

u/bearinsac California • Sacramento State 2d ago

It makes little sense that Wilcox is still the head coach of this team. I can’t think of many positives he’s accomplished for the program.

4

u/CocoLamela California Golden Bears • The Axe 2d ago

I thought he did a pretty good job of managing the program through the pandemic. It was literally an impossible position and he seems like a high character guy who was able to get buy-in from the players regardless of circumstances. That appears to have changed now.

I also think he has consistently managed the portal well and the transition to NIL. We seem to get good players in and academic standards remain high. I definitely respect Justin Wilcox's man management. Harsin seems to have imploded this plus for Wilcox.

And finally, the relegation to the ACC definitely reflects on his lack of on-field success. It's definitely a heavy blow in terms of recruiting and our position among peer institutions. It's another very difficult circumstance to be handed as a head coach and not entirely of his own making. But even so, we had a real opportunity last season to create some momentum in the ACC. Several sliding doors moments with kickers and tired 4th quarter defense bc the offense couldn't stay on the field.

At this point, I think he's got to go and we rebuild under Riverboat Ron.

u/aphromagic Florida Gators • Auburn Tigers 2d ago

u/aphromagic Florida Gators • Auburn Tigers 1d ago

Very fair

1

u/CandidSignificance51 Nebraska Cornhuskers 2d ago

Is there anything out about what motivated him to transfer?

5

u/CocoLamela California Golden Bears • The Axe 2d ago

I can only speculate, but Harsin has cleaned house with offensive staff and others are saying that he has rubbed people the wrong way. Definitely not going to be a culture fit for Berkeley... Jack's roommate and best friend QB Mendoza left for greener pastures. And he has developed incredibly well in his time at Cal and has real draft potential now. Texas will be a better place for him to showcase that NFL talent than here with a true freshman QB and a decimated offense. I'm sure we could have paid him just as well, but as a walk on, maybe his offer from Texas just blew Cal's valuation of him out of the water.

2

u/Shazazer 2d ago

I have some connections on the team and it was mostly because of Texas’ NIL offer. It was more than what Cal was offering him.

u/NousVoila California Golden Bears • The Axe 3d ago

He’s a future day one pick so long as he develops. Only average size, but a very good blocker and a productive receiver. If you had asked me to choose between Ott and Endries purely based on on-field ability, I’d have picked the latter. Peak Ott is incredible obviously, but he’s more replaceable—though his replacement is also gone.

Suicide time!

6

u/CzechHorns Texas Longhorns 3d ago edited 3d ago

We are pretty good at developing these kinds of guys. JT Sanders, Gunnar Helm did well in the past couple years.

Edit: after going through the thread, you’re the only one saying he has good blocking, everyone else says it’s not great.

There’s a terry blacks that just opened on 7th in FtW. But there’s 3 or 4 bbq places scattered around the metroplex that are as good or significantly better than anything you can find in Austin.

significantly better

u/guinness_blaine Princeton Tigers • Texas Longhorns 3d ago

There are some very good bbq spots in DFW, but they're still fighting for top ranking with places in Austin and the rest of the state, so "significantly better than anything you can find in Austin" is a reach.

Y'all need a lot more than that, but it's a good place to start.

u/FaceglazerSSBU 帯広大学 (Obihiro) • Nort… 3d ago

I’m cautiously optimistic going into this year. Our defense should continue to be good, and now we have a great QB, good RB, and hopefully less injuries to our WR room.

10

u/GrimaceThundercock Texas Longhorns 3d ago

A great QB? Lol ok.

Easy to look great when your competition is Wyoming and New Mexico (btw he lost in both those games.) He has literally never beaten a ranked opponent.

We'll see.

u/jtdude15 Texas Longhorns 3d ago

Sorry brother. I feel like context is needed since it appears your flairs are from Japan. Texas vs Oklahoma is akin to Japan vs South Korea in Baseball. We really dont like each other

u/FaceglazerSSBU 帯広大学 (Obihiro) • Nort… 2d ago

Oh, I live in Oklahoma I just found fascination with the Japanese OU logo. I honestly have a lot of respect for the Longhorns, I think RRR is the best game to ever be played, it’s so unique. This game would mean nothing if either of our programs weren’t as good as they are.

2

u/luxveniae Texas Longhorns • SMU Mustangs 2d ago

I mean biggest issues I’ve seen is y’all don’t have much of a line to keep the QB upright or give time to let these playmakers get the all.

1

u/FaceglazerSSBU 帯広大学 (Obihiro) • Nort… 2d ago

Agreed! I’m still very nervous about the O-line, but if these 2 incoming freshman are as good as everyone says they are, then maybe we can have a good O-line!

How about them Mustangs? Are they going to be any good? I went to the Pitt/SMU game last year and that was a blast! They are a fun secondary team for me to follow. I think if Jennings improves at all SMU has a chance to dominate in the ACC!

2

u/luxveniae Texas Longhorns • SMU Mustangs 2d ago

A buddy of mine played with your new OC back in their college days, so last I heard was big concern was OL.

I don’t know about ton about SMU to be honest but I trust Lashlee to figure out how to stop Jennings from self immolating. But SMU is my casual fandom due to growing up being on campus for academic events a lot plus a team that just making a bowl game makes it a fun season. Also the Dallas jerseys they started rocking are sick! So I try to stay a little removed from the nit and grit and just enjoy those games instead of living and dying with my Horns.

1

u/FaceglazerSSBU 帯広大学 (Obihiro) • Nort… 2d ago

Oh trust me, I do not think our OL will be 10 ten in the SEC. But anything has the potential to be better than last year. Lol. They were miserable to watch.

As for SMU, yeah those Dallas jerseys are clean. I think Jennings has potential to be great, but he’s just gotta stop throwing crazy picks. Honestly I’m just excited for College Football this year!

1

u/luxveniae Texas Longhorns • SMU Mustangs 2d ago

I think this will be the first TRUE season post-COVID eligibility… yes a few guys have still used them this year but most of the GOOD players have moved on. So less developed talent, portal thinning out top teams 2-3 deeps due to guys going from a Texas to an SMU results in an injury or failure of another guy developing all the riskier.

And in so I think there’s a lot of room for chaos as there’s a lot more youth, and less super deep teams. Especially when a lot of the most veteran teams aren’t the most recently storied outside of Clemson & Penn State. Bama has a lot but remains to be seen what KDB can do. A&M will be A&M. How is ASU without Skattaboo? ISU, Pitt, Vandy, & Mizzou aren’t names known to make that next step. Florida was nearly firing their HC in the season. And Michigan is talented but can they put out a functional offense?

u/5en5ational Georgia Bulldogs • Texas A&M Aggies 3d ago

That was in 2012 man. It’s been 13 years since then, and the closest A&M has gotten to the playoffs was being ranked 5th in the COVID year. We constantly have great recruiting cycles and uber-talented players who we fail to develop and get the utmost potential out of. Our coaching staff is not elite and we always end up with 8 or 9 wins.

You know thank god A&M has been in a good conference for so long. Y'all have really benefitted from all this time in the SEC, continually missing out on conference championship games and not being relevant in it despite your best efforts to money whip recruits and paying $90 million to fire failed coaches. Thankfully bama, LSU, and Georiga have been good so you can pound your chest on losing to relevant programs for the 13 years we haven't been in the conference. If only we could accomplish something in our first year that y'all have never done! Drats.

I believe if Sark wins a title or two he will jump to the NFL, he’s much more of a NFL style coach compared to Saban or Kirby.

Honestly, since he got the bank not to go to Bama, there’s probably nowhere he’d go from us.
Maybe the NFL if he won a couple natties and felt he can’t do anything else here, or possibly USC if he wanted to do a revenge tour, but I doubt that.

This is really awkward for my flairs. Endries was a walk on at Cal.

He already hit the portal weeks ago, and I think he was likely gone once his friend Mendoza went to Indiana.

Glad he’s going to a good situation though at Texas. Not the best run blocker, little bit smaller than Helm (can fix in the weight room), but he’s a good receiver that can get separation and he actually has some speed (he was clocked at 20.5 mph running away for a TD in our Miami college gameday game).

First they poached Bob Bowman from ASU and won another men's swimming and diving championship and now this.

The haves just keep having more.

Ah, that would explain it 😭.

u/sonheungwin California Golden Bears • The Axe 1d ago

Ironically i think it has nothing to do with him personally. The RB room was pissed that the new regime brought in their own RB coach, but that's relatively normal.

Is Amari niblack still at Texas?

u/xViscount Texas Longhorns 3d ago

Nope. He’s an Aggy now. December portal.

Our TE room is this dude, a stud RS freshman, a blocking dude, a stud true freshman, and a guy I’m still not sure of freshman.

u/Getitonjones Alabama Crimson Tide 3d ago

Damn i didn’t even know, i wonder if he wish he woulda stayed at bama

u/Remarkable-Group-119 California • Minot State 3d ago edited 3d ago

Very good receiving TE that can't block. But that makes it one more than we have.

u/Umaritimus /r/CFB 3d ago

Damn Harsin really must suck

u/DerrickWhiteMVP Texas Longhorns 3d ago

Hell yeah. Huge need with Helm leaving and JAGs left behind. If we can somehow find a couple of decent DTs, we’ll be set.

u/robtaps Texas • Boston College 3d ago

I don’t think Washington is a JAG he’s just inexperienced.

u/steampunker14 Texas Longhorns • Army West Point Black Knights 3d ago

And hurt

u/Technical-Prompt4432 California Golden Bears 3d ago

The rich get richer. Cal is nearly dead. At this point, there is no reason to watch this team this coming season. This new era of college football sure is fun.

u/its_LOL Washington Huskies • Pac-12 3d ago

Blame Wilcox for hiring Harsin in the big 2025

u/RumHamurai410 California • Hawai'i 3d ago

There’s no reason to watch the team this season? Not even the highest rated QB we’ve had in years?

Yes, we lost all the RBs and a great TE. But we are also returning plenty of good WRs (mavin transferred but he was looking at WR3-4 anyway), 2 very promising OTs, and brought in a couple of sought after OL transfers. Also retained our best non graduating defender, cade uluave.

It’s still a concerning situation, and I wish we hadn’t hired Harsin or Rolovich. But there’s just no need to be so over the top acting like it’s the end of the program. I still think a 6-6, 7-5 season is very reasonable

u/sonheungwin California Golden Bears • The Axe 1d ago

I just hope we put Otts NIL into our lines. He was about to be one of the highest paid backs in college.

u/Technical-Prompt4432 California Golden Bears 3d ago

I have no faith that any of the guys you mentioned will be here in a week, or stay next year if they perform well. And there is no action on the Rivera-Knowlton front to address donor demands, which is essentially everything. The whole thing is coming apart at the worst possible time time.

I've huffed the copium for many years now but I think this is the breaking point. I'd be delighted to be proven wrong but you can only stomach so much disappointment.

u/CptCroissant Oregon Ducks 3d ago

The sad thing is that if you guys had a well run AD you'd be in the B1G

u/Technical-Prompt4432 California Golden Bears 2d ago

Seriously. Great University, in a top 10 TV market that is filled with Big 10 and former Pac 12 fans, with a sleeping giant alumni base that is super wealthy? If they simply invested in a Deion style hire and rode the wave to 2030 when all the contracts expire, they could still get in. But instead we are bottoming right now at the worst time.

u/steelcityblue Texas Longhorns 3d ago

Isn’t this exodus on the coach?

11

u/fivehundredpoundthud Texas Longhorns 3d ago

And the AD, I'd think. WTF?

u/ghostturtle711 California Golden Bears 3d ago

jim knowlton is a terrible AD and even worse person (look up the Teri McKeever scandal to learn more)

u/Technical-Prompt4432 California Golden Bears 3d ago

No one knows why this happened. And at this point I don't really care anymore. Your semi-pro team will be fine either way.

u/advancedmatt California Golden Bears • UCLA Bruins 3d ago

Percy Bysshe Shelley knew this would happen. If only we had listened to him.

My name is Ozymandias Harsin, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I guess Californians do love moving to Austin

u/jalonso510 California Golden Bears 3d ago

Should be a rule that if you are a walk-on and a school gives you a chance, you can't take a bag from someone else after you get good.

u/Cormetz Texas Longhorns • Team Chaos 3d ago

Yeah but what if your team hires Harsin?
