NIL Recruiting News Megathread
Help me understand. And I'm seriously not trying to be a dick here. I appreciate the work you and others on this board have done to make sure things are setup in a way that complies with current regulation. As I understand things from reading this site, the collective pays student athletes to do charitable work and/or make charitable appearances for the NIL they receive. Is that correct? And if so, do you think that the amount they receive for their charitable work is commiserate with what they're being paid? How do you calculate the value add to the charities? How many appearances do they have to make annually? What are they doing for the money they receive? Because this seems like a bag game loophole to me. A loophole I'm very happy exits. But a loophole nonetheless. There's a very good possibility that I'm not fully understanding the specifics of how NIL deals structured through the collective is incorrect. And if that's the case, then I think it would be helpful if someone outlines the quid pro quo of it all so that everyone on this site better understands the general structure of the relationship.

Favorite Hot Sauce
Probably not since calories come from the oil. I'm not aware of any non oil-based chili crisp. Tried looking that up and only came across one on amazon, but it was still 80 calories per tablespoon. If you're only looking for heat, then I'd just use a regular fermented hot sauce, which has almost zero calories.

These guys are weirdos and losers. I don't think we need to overthink it anymore than that.

Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?
So I’m thinking that today is probably going to be the last “cold” day of the year. We may have a few more freezes at night, but starting tomorrow we are in the 60s/70s through March. Or, at least, that’s what I’m hoping for

2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
Will Howard threw for 500+ more yards, had more passing TDs, more running TDs, fewer picks, was sacked 17 fewer times and won a national championship. It's not debatable at all.

40 yard dash was formally incorporated into the combine in 1985, so it wasn't around back then.

Movies you're ashamed to admit that you enjoy
That's, perhaps, the dumbest movies I've ever seen. I only watched it because so many people kept talking about how amazing it was. It's one of the only movies I ever stopped watching because it was so stupid.

Off-Season Thread of Sadness: College Football’s Biggest Busts. Who Let You Down the Most?
The thing that exacerbated the disappointment in Brown/Gray was that Texas had been unable to land a 5-star in-state RB in what seemed like forever. Since landing Cedric Benson in 2001, we missed out on in-state 5-star RBs Lache Seastrunk (bust), Christine Michael (bust-ish), Jermie Calhoun (bust), Michael Goodson (regressed every year in school), and Adrian Peterson (stud). I thought we were setup to have a devastating run game for the next 4-5 years. And it just never happened.

Justin Tucker: The new Old Freak Nasty?
Let's dox these accusers so that fans of the college football team Tucker used to play for can verify the veracity of the claims and evaluate their "predilections". Interesting hill you chose to die on. Good luck choosing a new user name.

Texas Basketball Recruiting Notes: It's Miller Time
Give me mid-air collision every single time. There's a good chance you won't see it coming and if you're lucky, there's a gigantic explosion upon impact resulting in instant death. You'll see the cliff coming and you will have to reconcile inevitable death for short moments that will feel like agonizing eternity. But I'd also take the cliff over engine failure and crashing into the ground.
