  1. TCU seems like they should be pretty salty this season. Also, the newcomers don't really bring much to the table, do they? Houston has fallen off the college baseball map, and they're picked to be the best of the bunch.
  2. Agreed! Thank you to everyone who is involved with Texas NIL on this board. The collective “you” have built a force to be reckoned with. @closetojumping, I know the parties listed above have discussed some of the process in bits and pieces on the board, but I’d (and I’m sure many others would be interested and appreciative) love to read a rundown of the history and the process flow of y’all’s Texas NIL efforts in more depth. I know y’all cant disclose everything, but any information would be valued.
  3. Don't know where this goes exactly, but it's relevant to NIL. I bolded some interesting elements: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39394344/future-ncaa-college-athletics-money-private-equity
  4. All true. The conference will be more difficult with the new additions, but Michigan surely will experience a drop off. So, I imagine tOSU's incredibility motivated given: Three-straight Ls in "The Game" Michigan's title Harbaugh is gone, so there is newfound optimism Their recruiting has been very good; however, just alright on OL (for a blueblood), and not terribly deep at DL. I'm interested to watch what @closetojumping has been stating, as the lack of OL recruiting should show itself soon.
  5. Yeah, an ESPN mock the other day listed him as a replacement for Gabe Davis.
  6. They have six commits, at an avg of 94.00 (first overall), two of which are QBs. Sayin is a huge get for the future; Howard is largely unreliable/unpredictable but should contribute this season. Downs and Judkins (boy, that RB tandem is going to be great) are day-one impacts, as is McLaughlin as a guard. Texas has eight commits, at an avg of 92.00 (second overall). All but one (Blackshire) are day-one impacts in some fashion, with six being likely starters. By average, tOSU is winning the portal, but I wouldn't trade Texas' transfer class for theirs.
  7. RT telling Surly to go fuck ourselves. Beat a ranked BYU squad on the road next game and the résumé looks pretty decent. The next four represent a critical stretch: @ #21 BYU, #4 Houston, @TCU, #23 ISU
  8. You mean to tell me that Texas could have hired Few over RT?...
  9. I agree with this. A Gonzaga-style (national scope + overseas) recruiting machine at Texas would be a force.
  10. I think he's conflating "traditional DT" with nose tackle (0 or 1 tech). Like you, and many have said, Savea has played a good amount as a 3-tech traditional DT. Posters just want an immediate replacement for Sweat. Texas doesn't have a 0/1-tech on the roster outside of Mitchell, right now. Maybe Collins gets big enough.
  11. I mean, it makes sense to me. Aggies would be the ones to do this...
  12. What about that time Colt got inexplicably hurt in the national championship game, Squints had five turnovers, Mack Brown didn’t retire, and Texas wandered the proverbial college football desert for 13 seasons. Man, so many good times in that span.
  13. And another from having a bad non-con loss to a 6-12 (1-6) Louisville team. Cherry picking goes both ways. There are no moral victories here. The résumé is the résumé at this point: and at this point, Texas isn’t a tournament team.
  14. This is a moronic comparison. It's very likely KU's "down year" will end up better than all of Texas' past 15 seasons sans maybe three (last year, 2010-11, 13-14).
  15. KU's obviously not as prolific as usual, but this league is incredible this year in terms of the parity.
  16. They're 15-3 (3-2) with losses to UNC, @TCU, @KU... I hate OU too, but I'm not quite sure what you're talking about at this point in the season. The next five (Texas, TT, @KSU, @UCF, BYU) should tell us a lot. Then they get OSU, @BU, KU. Damn, this league is insane. I think likely a 5 or 6-seed is correct. This conference is going to get a ton of teams in the field that span 5-12 seeds.
