Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Helobious Is Getting Those Wrists Ready For Heavy Work
Problem is Flood will start him at C until we lose a few games because our OL sucks. I would rather he we go get a real C in the portal that can get a good push up front so we can actually consistently run the ball.

2025 GOLF: I don't think the heavy stuff's gonna come down for quite a while
Played Kapalua Plantation Course in Maui with my son a few days ago. Course was in great shape and the 20mph winds definitely made it play tough. It’s a lot more fun when I have played it for work and didn’t have to pay $500 a round out of my own pocket.

Rob Reiner found stabbed
RIP to one of the greats. The below episode from All in the Family is what I think of when I remember Rob Reiner. His movies were incredible also whether he wrote them, directed them or even acted in them.

1st Record, Cassette, CD, download
8 Track: Kiss-Destroyer Cassette: Aerosmith- Toys in the Attic Record: Styx- Paradise Theater (as a kid I thought the laser etching on the record itself was bad ass) CD: Steely Dan- A Decade of Steely Dan Forgot to add download. Don't remember but probably the thousand songs I donwloaded from Napster.

2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
Guessing the same thing Abdul Carter was. No time for doing their actual jobs.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
Isn't this why Ohio State develops WR's so well allegedly? Jermiah Smith, Egbuka, Harrison (he was lower ranked but definitely had the genes from his dad), now Henry are the can't miss 1-2 prospects and they bring them in. I am pretty sure Texas, or any school would have turned the same group of WR's into superstars since they already were superstars coming out of HS.

What’s Your Preferred Playoff Format?
Top 16 teams make the playoffs. Top 8 get a home field game and then next rounds go to bowl games. No auto bids. Of the SEC has 10 of the top 16 so be it. Ranking the top 16 should be based on the AP/coaches poll plus a computer that takes into account strength of schedule (BCS style). Basically the BCS but with 16 teams would be better than what we have now. No committees, especially ones that have members who are currently working for teams or conferences that are part of the process.

2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
I know its a big what if but, what is everyone's guess if Texas played either of these schedules this year? I see 11-1 with the ND schedule (figure Miami or USC trips us up) and 12-0 or 11-1 with the BYU schedule (maybe Tech beats us at Tech). How can you compare any teams in college football with such different schedules and conferences if you just look at wins and losses.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Should have had Abbott, Cruz, etc... make a deal with Trump to threaten UT's inclusion in the playoffs or the government takes over the whole deal including the profits. Just kidding, kind of and no CR.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I think McElory commented quickly about Texas how they barely beat some bad teams like KY and MSU. Good thing GA didn't barely beat Florida or Alabama barely beat Auburn, OU barely beat LSU or Aggie barely beat South Carolina. I guarantee if you give the shit SEC teams like Florida, Auburn, LSU, South Carolina and even Arkansas a ACC or Big 12 schedule they are all like 8-4 at a minimum.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
I get we should cancel Notre Dame and I would cancel the Ohio State and Michigan games also but now is where we need the SEC that we are part of to also make sure all the SEC teams cancel every OOC game that is high profile on their schedules. That would send the real message.

2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
Not saying you aren't correct but it's a crock of shit. Maybe the NFL should make sure there are teams always represented from certain states in the playoffs to not upsett congress.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Bowl games don't matter, and half of each team probably won't play. The ones that do play will be half assing it since it's more of an exhibition than it even used to be.

So we can watch Miami-BYU in the play in game. No thanks.

2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
How bout we have a 12 or 16 team playoff where the best teams are in it. No guarantees to conferences for slots, no G 5 shit. Just the best teams. I look at who will be in this year's playoffs and I think Texas (a flawed team in its own right) could beat half if not more of that field. Miami (who is also shit) I would take over quite a few of the playoff teams.

Lane Kiffin to LSU?
Let's say Ole Miss let him coach in the playoffs even if he stated he was leaving for LSU. The second Ole Miss loses the entire narrative would be that Kiffin wasn't really focused on the playoffs and was worrying about his new LSU job. If I'm Ole Miss, I can't have that. Time to cut bait and really the Ole Miss AD should be on TV right now saying, "we have fired Lane Kiffin and Joe the assistant coach is our new HC. Hope he chokes to death on a Po Boy in Baton Rouge".

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
Yeah, Hutson and Robertson are average at best but that combo beats FL (still loses to Ohio State). The fact that the coaching staff had a playoff level team and found a way to miss the playoffs without having major injuries to blame is malpractice. Blame Sark, Flood, Akina, whomever but this team is good enough to not have 3 losses.

The 2nd Most Important Position Behind QB Is…
Kicker. At least last year that would have been kind of important for the Longhorns.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
We lose to Arkansas today and the sun may not rise tomorrow.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I am no expert in recruiting, but it seems like we are starting to recruit a lot more 3-star level players and the other schools recruiting them are not the Top 10ish elite football schools but the Baylor's, Utah's, Oklahoma State's of the world. Yeah, yeah, the coaches are better at evaluating players than the recruiting services and they will coach them up, but this is a recipe for failure that we have all seen before here. When the Bama's, Georgia's, Ohio State's of the world keep loading up on 5 stars and high 4 stars (and God forbid the Aggies start this with their momentum) and we have low 4 stars and high 3 stars everyone will be screaming why do our players look slower and weaker than those other teams when we play them.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
This is exactly what Sark is doing at that press conference. He may not show up to the next two games because he is busy in FL recruiting.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I have no clue what’s going but the only thing I can figure is Sark is on that Epstein list or something. Or maybe it’s Lane and Kirby on that list. Did I get that right?
-
This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Why don’t we just ask either Andy Reid, Sean McVay, Nick Sirianni or Kyle Shanahan to be our coach. See there’s tons of head coaches out there to get.
