  1. IT with a few quick portal/draft related notes. My guess is Blue is who they are referencing in the second bullet point. *****Potential NFL departures have been a common query. I’m hearing more of the same on Matthew Golden and Michael Taaffe. “They’re up in the air. What the NFL recommends should carry weight.” *****IT expects one contributor from this team to enter the portal after this season. I think it’s a positive we’re only hearing one name, at least as of now. *****Of the players who have entered the portal, defensive tackle Tia Savea and Edge Justice Finkley are still with the team.
  2. Yikes. There is a large disconnect between what Maalik and his fanboys seem to think about him and what college programs seem to think about him.
  3. FCB — I'm hearing wide receiver Isaiah Bond(ankle) practiced on Wednesday and might be moving from questionable to probable for No. 5 Texas in a first-ever home College Football Playoff game against No. 12 seed Clemson on Saturday (3 p.m., TNT/Max).
  4. All is well in Norman. Added two FCS receivers today.
  5. “We probably had Eric Singleton in the bag until Auburn, with Hugh Freeze as playcaller and Jackson Arnold as QB, sent Singleton and his agent a PFF screenshot of Silas Bolden’s snap counts.” -Hermanator, probably
  6. Pete Nakos (On3) mentioned this regarding the Branch brothers “The brothers have an existing NIL deal with the Jordan Brand, which is something to know as their recruitment ramps up.”
  7. I am a little bummed to not see Air Force on the schedule.
  8. I know we are all happy that Davis was able to carve out a role after barely playing a lick his first 3 years, but as often as we find ourselves in 12 personnel, he just doesn't do much. PFF has him as one of the worst run blocking TE's in the country (go back and watch Arch's TD run against A&M and it's hilarious to see Davis with the opportunity to block about 4 different guys and he didn't touch a single one) and we know he doesn't offer much as a pass catcher.
  9. I'm sure Joey and the Double Eagle bros have convinced themselves they must push all the chips in. A joke of a non-conference schedule next year while avoiding four teams that finished in front of them in the standings this year. All that means probably means another 8-4/7-5 season loading. https://fbschedules.com/2025-texas-tech-football-schedule/
  10. *The Arch package. I'm not asking Arch to run QB power 5 times a game. But the threat of his legs should open up more options in the redzone, which is probably what this offense needs since we aren't very good at just straight up mauling people in the run game and have a QB who struggles when the field gets condensed and he has to throw guys open more.
  11. I don't disagree, but when they tried something new against Kentucky by throwing in Gibson in the third quarter of a non-blowout, he immediately put the ball on the ground. The Arch package seems far more likely to be a redzone answer than asking Gibson to traditional run game stuff at this point.
  12. So Dartmouth is the layup weekend. Santa Clara is a middle of the pack WCC team. SOS won’t be an issue this year. The other thing that sticks out is no double midweeks.
  13. Sounds like you do understand why we abandoned him. Same reason Jaydon Blue has received 4 total carries the last 2 games. 3 fumbles in 68 career carries for Gibson is about as bad as it gets. Maybe he’ll be good in time but outside of his garbage time carries against Florida I haven’t seen anything the last 2 months to say he should be seeing the ball more outside of the occasional short yardage carry.
  14. Ohio State- Julian Sayin Bama- Austin Mack who came with DeBoer from Washington or Ty Simpson. Assuming Milroe doesn’t come back. Miami has to be transfer I would think. Same with ND. USC is another one I would assume is in the market. Is Riley going to feel comfortable rolling with Maiaiva in what might be a hot seat year? Will Michigan want a one year stopgap guy before Underwood takes over?
  15. I would actually like this pickup for A&M. We will see if they can get him the ball. Averaged over 21 yards a reception as a freshman.
  16. Can’t remember which but one of the 9.95 sites said last week that the Nansen connection isn’t as strong with Davis as the defensive lineman from last year that we brought in.
  17. Maybe Mitchell saw the Zac Swanson interview
  18. Alright I’m not even going to pretend I wanted Mitchell back this time
  19. Moved up 20 spots in NET this past week from #64 to #44. Auburn- 1 Tennessee- 2 Florida- 5 Kentucky- 7 Bama- 10 Ole Miss- 22 Mississippi State- 24 Georgia- 26 A&M- 28 Missouri- 29 OU- 41 Texas- 44 Arkansas- 47 Vandy- 54 LSU- 64 South Carolina- 99
  20. The question has to be asked, is this team better without Tre Johnson?
