    Why would Sam return regardless? 

    I've never considered it.

    Maybe his love for his hometown U is just that great? Maybe this isn't how he wants his Texas career to end? Maybe he's not doing as good as he thought he'd be doing and his draft stock isn't going to be where he'd like it. 

    Still don't see it, but there are reasons. Just depends on where he's at in his head. Longshot.

    I just don't see many guys on this team as irreplaceable. The ones that are are on their way out the door, anyway.

    I'd like to keep Bijan and Whitt. Casey. Alfred Collins. Jamison. Jared Wiley. I get disinterested pretty quickly after that. Ossai isn't staying. Sam will either declare or stay.

    Not only do we not develop, I'm not sure we get the right guys on campus.

    All fair points.

    Good. Let them think about why they're here.

    No. That's some old school shit that used to work. There's a transfer-portal now that gives these kids a far better option than they've ever had. Keep 'em as happy as you can. Let 'em rally around one of the coaches they already know. The boat's gunna rock, but make it rock as little as possible. 

     

    Or maybe I'm missing something. I'd be willing to say I'm wrong on this. No problem with that at all.

    "Hey Urban, I know you haven't spent one second around these guys, but do you think you could take 53 4-star athletes and maybe beat Kansas and West Vrigina? I know thats asking a lot, since you've only won 3 national titles between two different schools in the last 15 years"

    It has nothing to do with how good of a coach Urban Meyer is, or Meyer at all really, and everything to do with a group of 100 young players who don't know the guy you're putting in charge of them mid-season. It'd be a helluv-an emotional time for these kids. 


  5. Have been curious about if Elliott would be open to a jump to the NFL. Maybe not as HC, but OC. Houston will have a position, with a QB he coached when he was co-HC. Then, whoever drafts Lawrence will probably have their positions open.

    Wonder what his big plans are for his career...
  6. Going 11-1 and losing to OU every year is better than going 7-5 and losing to OU every year.  

    I don’t want to walk all over your quote here, because I completely understand what you’re saying... but this Longhorns team coached by Mack would have destroyed whatever the fuck OU team that was on Saturday. That team is awful.

    Tom’s team literally let them bench their starting QB, then UN-bench him so he could then beat you.
