  1. Agree to disagree on whether a court would rule that the word any would basically read out the word conduct. Arguably, “any conduct” would encompass walking on the street near where a crime was committed or sleeping with the prosecutor’s wife so that they tried to pin a crime on you, but I do not foresee a judge agreeing with that reading of UT’s contract.
  2. To be fair, it says “any conduct resulting in a criminal charge…involving a felony.” It’s not necessarily a great argument, but depending on what he actually did or did not do, it could be argued that he did not do the conduct that resulted in the charge. In this case, if it’s only a felony because of the strangulation charge and he did not do that conduct, did he really do conduct resulting in a felony charge? To take a more extreme case, if someone was arrested and charged on mistaken identity, that person would clearly have been charged with the felony, but did they really do any conduct resulting in a felony charge? The contract is written such that the conduct is what is important, and not just the charge. I am not sure if that was intended or just lazily drafted.
  3. He might be better suited in an offense that doesn’t throw it more than 15 yards down the field.
  4. Maybe I do not realize how much media availability coach Gundy does. Does he have multiple availabilities during the next couple of weeks. If so, then maybe the question could be asked at one of those sessions. My understanding is that this is likely the last media availability until he likely does one after signing day in early February. If that is the case, my guess is that he would come up with some rant about how that was about these kids big day following their dreams and the reporter should not be soiling their big day by asking questions at that time.
  5. But if that is the reasoning, why even have media availability at all. We might as well just wait until Oklahoma makes a press release. I'm sure that is what coaches would prefer.
  6. Eh, they were a Bijan fumble away from having the same record as last year (or worse, depending on the bowl they would have been in).
  7. I guess he has changed his tune since he said "Come after me! I'm a man! I'm 40!" Or maybe he meant that as "Come after me, so that we know who to remove their access to the program they cover." Are you kidding me? Where are we at in society today? Come after me! I'm a man! I'm 40! I'm not-- I'm not a kid. Write something about me, or our coaches.
  8. Don't worry, I heard they'll be adding some temporary bleachers for the Texas fans...
  9. It's a tough situation that we are not going to solve on this message board. Obviously, if people are guilty of domestic violence, you want to punish them, but if there is not enough to punish them criminally, do we want the default to be punishing them economically. Maybe we do, but the downside is that if victims know that their husbands will be fired regardless of what actually happened if they call the police, they are certainly going to be less likely to call the police to escape an escalating situation. This case is not necessarily typical, because they are not married and there are no mutual kids (so it's not clear whether she would be harmed if he is fired and has trouble getting a similar job), but if we make the default that whenever someone calls the police, all of them suffer financially, you will end up with fewer calls to the police, even if the police could help alleviate the situation.
  10. Those were three of Texas' best games, so he must be the key to our success.
  11. If we are playing at Houston and at BYU, the dropped games would presumably be Texas away games (WVU, Iowa St, TCU, Baylor), unless (1) they are going full scorched earth and having Texas play 2 home games and 6 away games or (2) they are going to have one of the teams play at Texas two years in a row.
  12. In 2004, our third leading receiver at WR was Nate Jones, with 7 catches (but fewer yards than Cain had this year).
  13. LOL, the link makes it look like they gave him a $266 million contract, which would probably even make A&M blush.
  14. The Washington State and UCLA games were both at 10:30pm ET. That seems pretty late - not exactly rime time.
  15. It seems unlikely he’s going to commit to Texas while our coach is in limbo, but we can hope.
  16. Maybe if they had her statements, but they do not. They just have what the police officer says she said, which is classic hearsay. I do not know if Texas has an exception for this, but I know DC does not.
  17. Obviously if there is physical evidence, that will be important, but I do not think her statements in the police report are admissible as evidence.
  18. How do you know what happened? Is that not important? Should he nail him to the wall no matter what the facts are? Even if she was not telling the truth to the police?
  19. Compare that to:
  20. We interrupt this Christmas broadcast of Bevo to bring you breaking news...
  21. LOL https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/oklahoma-sooners/brent-venables-buyout-contract-details-revealed-in-report/
  22. To be fair to Mandel, he’s clearly being facetious. His previous post was about how you cannot tell the difference between the best recruiting classes today and before NIL.
  23. Gerry said that if Moore does not sign today, he would likely not be signing with Texas.
