  1. Sark has been pretty open about wanting to run the ball at will since he was hired. Especially in predictable situations, like redzone trips. That just hasn’t happened. Teams were also keying in on inside zone RPO pretty heavily towards the end of the season. Talking points to consider.
  2. It’s not an off-season without a center discussion. How we feeling about Jake Majors? I assume we probably get the best version of him as a 23 year old 5th year starter. He’s battle tested, he’s been on the opposite side of some great defensive linemen in his time here. You also got a young dog in Cole Hutson who is big, violent , sharp, and ready for another starting shot. You got Hayden Conner who may also potentially be seeking a path back into the starting lineup. You have a young protégé in Daniel Cruz who everyone is excited about. Discuss.
  3. Sydir down to 350 is awesome. #99 being a solid piece in the rotation would really elevate this team. He could split snaps with Lole and Norton. It goes a long way in shoring up the middle going into next season too.
  4. When he was 14/15 years old. He grew out the position pretty quick.
  5. I don’t want to disrespect the young man by comparing him to an Aggy, but Cunningham reminds me Edgerrin Cooper. Long and physical linebacker who can play in space. I don’t see Nansen’s vision with Faraimo, maybe I’m still in a Big12 mindset. He just looks like another maxed out HS inside linebacker that will be pushing 260 by the time he sees the field. Would we put him at edge?
  6. I noticed our LT recruits are much leaner prospects than Guard & RT. I’ve heard RT are equally as significant as LTs in modern offenses. So what’s our philosophy there?
  7. Times have changed man. Folks don’t make fun of freaks anymore. The kids are pretty progressive too. As long as they have a chance to start on a well coached unit, they don’t care about cults or neurodivergent alternative cheer squadrons.
  8. The OnTexas guys have started to champion Ryan Wingo & Jaylon Guilbeau as two obvious off-season standouts. It’ll be interesting how they factor into rotations. Jaylon’s been that guy since his freshmen year though, Gary was adamant at starting him at nickel. He looked a step too slow to me back then, I’m curious how he’s developed after the knee injury.
  9. I think Lanning can handle the locker room dynamics better than Jimbos staff. Although he’s got to have his eye on that Florida job. That Miami game week one will be interesting.
  10. Beautiful. Needed that. Fuck that liver spotted mummy in Eugene.
  11. What a drag. There’s obviously some sort of disconnect or vulnerability going on here. Texas just went to the playoffs, had double digit players drafted, and will debut in the SEC this fall. Yet we’re losing Texas boys to Oregon? BIG10 Football? I don’t give a fuck what month it is, thats lame. Thats gross even. Imagine wanting to play in the cold in some of the most uninspired Midwest venues. Y'all don’t have to try to extinguish every comment posted about it, the football board is available. I am too of the belief that Texas will get theirs by Signing day, but I can also recognize the shortcomings.
  12. I think we’ll benefit from the average age of the unit being like 32. Grown man strength played a big part in Michigan and Washington’s run last season. If Broughton could elevate into the vicinity of 2023 Alfred Collins, I think we’ll be a nasty group. Tons of length and ability across the entire line. I was watching Lole’s Louisville tape, he’s got a lot of quality tape against legit competition. Hopefully some of the young guys flash this season because this room will be decimated next season.
  13. I was watching TexAgs radio for a morning cup of Aggie tears. They brought on multiple current players. They were trying so hard to get these kids to say they were distracted in the slightest during the tournament. All of the players were just like “uh nah, we were locked in. Coach was too”.
  14. No Virginia? Great Uniforms, great regional recruiting, the ACC is full of pageantry, mini coliseum stadium, challenging P4, etc. I’ll be starting with Sam Houston. I believe I can elevate their program enough for a Big12 invite.
  15. The PS5 utilizes haptic feedback, I’d think EA would make use of it. What’s more immersive than college football? Home field advantage, fatigue, big hits, etc.
  16. I think you olds should go with the PS5. The controller has a ton of features that I think will enhance the gameplay experience if they utilize them.
  17. Yeah, but it’s not consistent across the board. In that Big12 title game their linebackers were probably one of the most impressive groups we seen all season. Huge and explosive. It didn’t matter though because the DL were just bodies who were getting manhandled. OSU should throw a big number at Zac Robinson, invest in the roster for at least three years, and see if they can get a playoff win.
  18. I’m suprised Oklahoma State isn’t more active in high profile transfers & recruits in the NIL era. Didn’t Boone set up a foundation that funnels millions annually into their athletic department? You’d think they’d be able to load up on those small town gems Aggy likes to target.
  19. I don’t have much expectations for Norton, his tape is suspect. Savea was a pleasant surprise, he looked strong and active in the spring game. I have zero expectations for Broughton. I believe Bryant and Bledsoe will flash. No idea what to expect of Sydir. January might be able to give you quality snaps this season. Collins was one of the most disruptive interior linemen in the country last year, I believe he’ll be the guy we’ve been waiting on. Kenny doesn’t have it made for him, but a good coach should be able to produce with these pieces. I feel we’re solid enough at ILB to remain strong against the run.
  20. What a potential journey for that kid. Out of Oakland, plays at Cal Poly. Transfers to San Jose State. Balls out. Now he might be playing SEC ball in the fall in Texas.
  21. Somebody take J Whitt. When he went up for that long vertical fade vs Washington…man. The tequila started pouring. I thought we were going for the kill.
  22. Fired up for Brooks! I was physically sick when I found out he tore his knee. He would have been an easy top 20 pick.
  23. Latu’s and Turner’s mommas look kinda good
  24. Latu’s momma look kinda good.
