Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
I see other schools 995ers are now throwing out the Texas make their collectives feel good, to go along with players using the Texas name to drive up prices and sound important. This is the first time I've heard this guy's name from anyone. Of course, he's not in the portal and still in the playoffs, so maybe that's it...

Not sure how yours works, but at Total Wine here you get the discounted price when you buy 6 of any kind of wine. Because I feel like when you buy out the stock of something, like you did there, but there weren't 6 left, you'd better have been able to buy two bottles of daily drinker to get that sweet, sweet $60 discount per bottle.

Yeah, "The Big 12 runs through Lubbock" energy. It's almost like Maguire works for Cody Campbell and is doing whatever the fuck Campbell says, including channeling that little brother insecurity little dick energy.

There's a rumor that Flood kicked the tires on him last month but then veto'd the take when he looked at his 247 profile and didn't see a 6'9" daywalking ginger nightmare with literal tree stumps for feet. Sorry Seaton, you don't fit the profile.

His only other posts, prior to today, were when he registered in July to drop this beauty: https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/27346-texas-recruiting-notes-2026-boulevard-of-broken-bagmen/page/155/#findComment-7192423 Showing up to create an account (I'm sure this is some guy's new handle) and whine about Tyler Atkinson in July is some chef's kiss level of trying to be a whiny bitch. That's like BO&W level gashery. In case y'all forget, we ended up with Tyler Atkinson. Just like we ended up addressing our dire DT needs two portal seasons in a row. We might not get all our toys, but something tells me we'll be getting some this portal season.

I said in my post that the team obviously had other issues as well, it doesn't change the fact that average play wins us both games I cited. Sark failing to convert on 4th down runs is nothing new. Even with better backs. That shit hasn't changed, do we need to remind you of last playoffs? And "outside of 2 bad throws" that were picks, the guy went 16/29. That's barely over 50%. In a game we had a shot to pull out, all other poor play aside. A QB barely hitting 50% is almost never the "least" of a team's problems. But the main point I'm making, and I can't believe it's even an argument, is that saying Sark "wasted" Manning last year when Manning sucked shit through a fucking straw for more than half the season is a hell of a take. That's a statement we might be able to say about next year, but not this past year. Now, you want to say Sark had his head up his ass all last year? Sure. Go for it. Right there with you.

I mean, the post you quoted literally says "Zion entered the portal with a no contact tag."- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
Is this sarcasm? I assume it's not because you generally seem humorless. But it's a particularly ironic post considering Texas's two RB targets so far in this portal cycle have failed to enter the portal for those big dollars.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
To be fair, Arch Manning did a pretty great fucking job of wasting last season for about oh, 7 games. 6 out of the first 7 games, plus the first half of Miss St. There were other problems with this team, obviously, but an average performance, just average, by Arch against Ohio St. and Florida, probably wins us both of those games.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi!

Aww, did CJ get his fee fees hurt because people are asking him to justify his own words he used in his own reporting?- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
This is the dumbest, most thoughtless and uninformed post you've made yet. Literally nothing will cost Sark this job other than Steve Sarkisian. And by Steve Sarkisian, I don't mean missing some portal targets, I mean a complete implosion of himself and the team. Oh, I see, you're living in fantasyland and are completely unmoored from reality. Disregard my previous post, despite it still being true. Listen, I've heard of this place called Orangebloods, you might be a fit there. Or the football board here.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
Indiana has signed 2 guys, one of which isn't a position we're chasing. And your view of the portal, like most people here, is like looking at the tip of the iceberg and being completely clueless that 80% of it is beneath the water. The amount we spend on retaining the roster so guys don't portal out is astronomical. We're paying six figures to plenty of kids out of HS who haven't even seen playing time, but everyone here would shit their pants if Justus Terry or Tyler Atkinson fucking bailed on us. As for "Being the Joneses" what a tired trope. With 20 million dollars, even shitty programs can flex up some money and save some of their best players if the kid is happy there otherwise. But not paying Wisner 1 million from 750, or moving Livingston up from whatever he was making to 800k, and suddenly we're just poor little ole' Texas getting outspend. It's so fucking stupid. This guy has a lot more speed than Wisner. I'd say it's great that we're not in the market for a fucking QB?- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
If 99.9% of the football players aren't doing to take his offer, it sounds like this fucking guy isn't going to be out all that much money after all...so I guess he's just a bitch. I'm guessing the real problem is he named his newborn Parker.- $9.95 worth every penny
Yup, my life is horrible and I’m miserable. Whatever you’ve got to tell yourself so you don’t have to be accountable for your own shitty takes and beliefs. I’d tell you that my life is pretty damn great but you wouldn’t believe me anyway.- Parker Livingstone
You can’t respond to any points I’ve made so you revert to bullshit victimization. Get fucked, P.- Parker Livingstone
You think Livingstone was told he was 6th after Moore declared, and we haven’t signed anyone in the portal? You think we told him he was behind locket, French, and shitty AF mccutcheon? Our exiting depth insists he’s third. You’re making shit up out of whole cloth. 16 people didn’t enter the portal because they wanted more money. 12 dudes entered the portal because they knew they’d never have playing time worth a shit at Texas, like say Jerrick Gibson. 4 guys entered the portal because they wanted more money than we think they’re worth. You’re on the football board, not the recruiting board. But claiming the football board as the smartest board in surly is surely a take .- Parker Livingstone
Connect the dots, sheeple.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Eloi! Eloi, lama sabachthani!
Fuck. This is getting irritating, but this isn’t one of mine guys.- Parker Livingstone
Except that multiple sources have the same story and supporting evidence, including notoriously conservative and tight-lipped Bobby Burton, and the other person is pissed off Parker Livingstone. but I’m sure the coaching staff and 995 world and NIL support staff and the collective are all just pushing an agenda of some sort. Still waiting for someone to explain to me why we’re all going to all the trouble to push whatever this agenda is. But I’m sure that’s the ticket.- Parker Livingstone
How am I a 995er? Are you under the impression I make a living by covering Texas football? I assure you, I do not. You’re right, the chain of command doesn’t report to anyone. And, by your own admission, if there was nothing to work out then the conversations about the ask never would have taken place. No one would have heard a thing. And yet… Anyway, you’re going to believe whatever you want to believe to support the conclusion you’ve come to, so I’m done wasting my time.- Parker Livingstone
Are you suggesting the coaching staff is lying about Parker’s request? That they’ve lied to one fund to push whatever you think the narrative is they want to push? That they willy nilly risked pissing off Manning by cutting bait on his roomie when they guy wasn’t asking for more money at all? When all the staff had to do was pay him what he was making now and then bench his fucking ass next season, but they instead did all this to…accomplish what exactly?- Parker Livingstone
Weird, I read the same tweet you did and I don’t read any of that as “pushed out.” I read that as “I’m not appreciated the way I think I should be so I’m leaving.” I certainly didn’t read the words “pushed out” in there. You’re reading what you want to read. Texas One fund is in constant communication with agents and the coaching staff and discussing available funds, allotment, needs, etc. They have to be, because yes, they write a lot of these checks. Before the 20 million dollar allotment, they wrote ALL of the checks. This is literally Brandon Harris’s job. They or their agent ask for an amount, and then everyone has a conversation.- Parker Livingstone
Please don’t speculate what I was told or by who. You’re insisting on the finality of your narrative without knowing jack shit about who I know and who I speak with, and you got upset with another poster about making assumptions about what you know. Now you’re doing the same thing. For the record, there is an entire organization responsible for actually writing a bunch of these checks and negotiating all the player deals. It’s called Texas One fund, maybe you’ve heard of it. Before that it was called Horns With Heart. Maybe you’ve heard of it. Some of us around here literally founded it. Some of us around here might know some shit.- $9.95 worth every penny
