Thanks y'all for the great work you put in.
I've been impressed by the foresight every step of the way. Timing has been impeccable
First crowdsourced NIL deal for a position group
First 501c3 for a position of need, announced right before signing day
Other Texas collectives form in time for the portal and baseball season
And now that sustainable operations and cooperation with the AD are more important than the public splash, all collectives merge
I think the casual fan might be underwhelmed or disappointed that there's no specific mission or $ amount, but this is a big deal. No need to continue giving other schools a target and blueprint.
By the way, there's a legitimate case to be made that we're .500 or below and our future is dark without HWH. If Banks doesn't come, we lose our best OL this year and have Karic or Jones at LT. Not only does that degrade the starting OL, it also takes away the jumbo package with Karic at TE that has been so successful this year. And without this OL class, how does our pitch to Arch, Johntay, Baxter, etc. change? It certainly makes our prospects for next season when we lose Bijan and Ro much worse. Sark needs to host y'all for an OV weekend visit to his house and VY steakhouse or something.
Also, you know the aggy tears have been flowing when LHF makes you think LonghornFrenzy first.
